Aireskoi Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 32nd? C'mon man, what the hell. I just want to know who he thinks those 31 other teams are?? I mean if we're that bad maybe we will get the #1 pick. Sent packin' for Hacken? Or how about Slackin' for Hacken? Crash and Burn for Hackenberg /endtitlecontest The Crash of (for?)the Hackenburg. We're sucky nerds for Hackenberg. Laying turds for Hackenberg? You all should be ashamed of yourselves. We haven't even started the season and we have to read these? At least get it right, some of you were close... Hindenburg for Hackenberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortisBetts Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Are the Browns really better than us? That's a serious question. Since that's a serious question.....It totally makes sense we are 32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 It's Prisco and nothing more than Prisco. As a Philly fan, he hates us more than the Giants or Cowboys. I'm not sure why, because every team in our division claim we are not their biggest rival. so.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 According to the great Prisco, we have regressed to being a 2-14 team by the defensive additions and the draft. Of course he also thinks the Ravens are the 5th best team, the panthers are 12th, and somehow better than the Vikings who now have AP, and the absolutely stacked Bears coaching staff.

samy316 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I don't really know why everyone trips out over these power rankings that come out every year. We've sucked for a long time (save for some seasons like 2005, 2007 & 2012). We've long since earned our crappy reputation, so it shouldn't surprise anyone at this point why writers and fans have us polled so low. Until we can consistently prove that we aren't anything more than a bottom feeding franchise, we'll never get the benefit of the doubt. The good news though, is that with Scott McCloughan's arrival, maybe we can gain some consistency & competency finally. Hopefully within the next couple of seasons, we can be known more for building a foundation, and gaining steps towards being a competitive, competent franchise, and not a laughing stock. We have a lot of work to do in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 He has to rank somebody last. I don't see why we're so outraged that it would be us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
returnofthefunbunch Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I have no problem with being ranked last... Nowhere to go but up. I actually think we will surprise many people this year. Does that mean playoffs? Probably not. Does that mean 8-8? Possibly. No way we are the worst team in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 He has to rank somebody last. I don't see why we're so outraged that it would be us. Because our body of work last year and our offseason work this year suggest that we will not be the worst team. I'd be interested in seeing if anyone besides Prisco has us 32nd. It's not like we're coming off a 1-15 season and had a terrible draft. That is not the case. You know, I'd have no problem with him ranking us anywhere from 25-30th. I would 100% agree with him. He did not give a reasonable reason for us being ranked 32nd. It's pretty much his schtick with us. I don't know what it is, but your posts lately suggest you are loving us being the worst team in the league. It's like your getting a kick out of any negativity surrounding the team. You sound like you are in a "told you so" mood. As a franchise and fanbase, we really need to get away from the air of negativity. I'm tired of doom and gloom. I want to be a happy sports fan, not a Browns fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 You all are ridiculous. Hackenberg is a great QB. Go look at his true freshman tape, when he was playing as a true freshman for Bill O'Brien. He was incredibly good as an 18 year old on the big stage. Last year, due to a variety of factors, Penn State had one of their worst O-lines in history. Hackenberg had zero time to throw and got mauled every game. And as someone said, he got up every time and didn't miss a game. All that did was prepare him to play behind the O-lines we've been trotting out. Kid has a cannon, and can actually be accurate on all throws.

Conn Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 You guys, he isn't doing a deep roster evaluation or grinding tape to come up with these rankings. It's a pretty clear, shallow thought process: Redskins (as viewed by the generic NFL fan): Joke name Joke owner Joke injury-prone QB we overpaid for Joke coach living off his brother's name Joke DC who last coached the defense of the 0-16 Lions Alcoholic GM brought in by meddling owner who ruins everything Look at it without details, without facts, as someone on the outside who only follows the Redskins through the national media. This reads like a set-up for a hilariously bad season. And, let's be honest for a second, despite all the positivity this offseason has deservedly brought... It could be.

Forehead Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Does he hate Silas Redd though? Not enough for my liking. Then again, Hack was part of the first recruiting class post sanctions, and Redd was already gone, so they never crossed paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I've been looking at the QBs coming out in next year's draft. I'm just not that high on Conner Cook or Christen Hackenburg. Both are sub 60% passers. Hack was sub 60 even under Bill. Both QBs have either improved very little from their first year starting or regressed. Two of the guys that I'd love us to get if we go in that direction is Kody Kessler (yeah, I know, I know USC QBs usually bomb) who has improved on his positive stats (TDs, Yards, Completion Percentage) every year while also improving on his negative stats (INTs have gone down every year). The other is Kevin Hogan at Stanford. Three year starter, kind of the mold of Andrew Luck. Both of these guys are 61% or better in their careers.

Probos Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 haha. No way we are the worst team in the league. Pretty bad probably, but not the worst. The bucs still have that honor. That being said, I'd be fine for tanking, and taking the best QB in the country next year, if RG3 doesn't show significant improvement. I'm sure Scott wouldn't mind drafting his QB. Wat? Ha -- are you high? Um,..you do remember the Bucs (apparently the worst team in football) beat the Skins ass last season? No one knows who the worst team in football is at this point in time -- the season hasn't even begun, but I don't see the Skins sniffing more than 5-6 wins. I don't see the team tanking for a high draft pick though -- they'll be more competitive this year. I'm not expecting much in terms of wins (I don't think anyone should) but we need to see effort, a will to win, and an attitude this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBeast Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Somebody should create a W/L poll. Winners get ES shirts at end of year. Good thing to do for the board on first day of camp. Leave it open 7 days. Gotta nail it exactly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacoah Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I know we're a pretty miserable bunch of misfits, but there's no way we are worse than the Jags or the Bucs. On paper, we should at least climb a few rungs. LOL #32 my ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 It's just insulting to be rated lower than Oakland and the other annual armpits of the league. Prisco aside, yes italics are called for here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rg3mvp2014 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 lol this is no different from most of the pages on facebook constantly posting things about the redskins to make them look bad just because the pages have a political bias or issue with the owner. no chance we are the worst team in the league. lol jaguars? titans? raiders?
