Surely we can do better after a couple years of competitive play and the procurement of a competent GM. At the very least, I hope this logic extends to our next DC signing. I like Jay. Skins Passion is the king of hot takes. I want to see where this takes us. He's like Hitler in post-World War I Europe right now, trying to collect followers.

A Skinhead in Saints Land Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Kirk Cousins is the perfect quarterback to pair with a strong run game. Fix the run game, and I think we'll be in good shape. He's not elite, but he is good enough to get us where we want to go. With a run game, and a middle of the road defense, I think we'll be able to make some noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouchdownSkin Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 26 minutes ago, Dissident2 said: I think the worst thing about this loss is the fact that we go into the offseason questioning everything. A coach that consistently fails to get his team up for big games and has mind-numbingly bad clock management skills. An OC who is obviously very knowledgeable schematically but seems to really have poor situational awareness. No running backs whatsoever that really made a mark. A GM who has given us one of the worst defenses in the team's history as well as suspect draft picks (Doctson). And of course, a QB who has once again failed in the clutch because of his own mental deficiencies. Glad we got another winning season, but feels pretty damn empty right now. I guess I could use the break. Oh, glory days, how I miss thee. I'm out of likes --THANK YOU !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do you really think they'd give up two 1st rounders for Kirk? No. I was disregarding the trade aspect of the scenario, because he's a FA. But I do believe the Jets would pay him the way the Texans paid whatshisname last offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 2 minutes ago, NoCalMike said: We can't blame the defense or lack of running game on the outcome today. The game was there to be won or at least tied, and Kirk made an awful throw. Nothing leading up to that point in the game effected Cousins choice to throw it into coverage. He could tucked the ball and ran for 20 yards. He had options besides "throw to the not open guy" He stared right down the middle of the field the entire time, and then threw it right to the same spot. That is on him. Was a bad throw, yes, but there was a defender coming back up from the backfield that would have caught him after just a few yards. He wouldn't have ran for far, but it would have been fine for him to do so there anyway. The read was good, Garcon was open, the throw was not good. I'm not a fan of McVay's play call there either. They'd been pressuring all day, yet it's late, we have our timeouts (except for one which Jay should not have called) but there's no underneath dump off option. Same exact thing happened vs. Arizona, similar route too though that one was an overthrow instead of under. But again no underneath help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 If we want to keep Cousins, we're gonna overpay him. If we don't wanna overpay him, we'll tag him. I don't see any sort of a team friendly deal as a reasonable outcome. I'm not sure we would get two 1st round picks for him if we did try to tag and trade. Maybe we would, I'm just not as confident as some. SM is in a tough spot. Unfortunately, I think both options could wind up hurting our team. My guess is he goes with option A and we re-sign Kirk to a big deal, but I'm sure there will be plenty of hand wringing on both sides before we get to that point. But no matter what, the Kirk threads will be as redundant and as ****ty as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great example of a QB who gets paid a lot of money and puts up tons of yards and it means absolutely nothing in the end, at least for the last 6 years. What's unfortunate about today is we would have had a chance to play the weakest team in the playoffs, Seattle looks terrible the last 5 weeks.

Napredskins1 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The loss hurts. We really need to upgrade at RB and get someone that can make some plays with consistency. I wish Cousins would of ran instead of throwing the ball on the last interception. There was a lot of room and could of got some yards instead of the pick.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 14 minutes ago, ZRagone said: Actually, strangely it is from a technical stand point. You have more wins than losses, therefore its' a winning season. I know statistically it's a winning season by a half a game. It's like a girl accepting your prom invitation because the first 5 guys she wanted to go with all said no. It doesn't feel good. 8 wins isn't a winning season to me and just because we sucked so bad we tied a game doesn't change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirtyfive2seven Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 38 minutes ago, skinsmania123 said: There is such a choke factor with Cousin's in the biggest of biggest games. Like with Carolina. That would have sealed it for us. That was a team that has struggled all year and has continued since us. But no. Kirk looks tight and befuddled and played like ****. Then we go play the 3-12 team Chicago and the Skins do what they should have done and handled with Carolina. It is very difficult to beat a division rival twice. Every time there is something on the line we CHOKE. Carolina isn't as bad as their record. I think they played well in a lot of their games and were close. Just like the Redskins, theirs could have gone either way as well. However, I think that Kirk will come back from this. Sure it was a bad decision but he doesn't make too many of them and he's the ONLY option the Redskins have long term. You have to lock him up and build around him. Notice that no one tonight is saying anything about the running game... It was pure ****. The offensive isn't mauling anyone in the run game and our RB's, all of them, pretty much suck. I like Thompson as a 3rd down back and maybe keep him for special teams but Jones and fat Rob and take a hike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still hate the 'Boys more, although I definitely hate the Giants. But I also have to TOTALLY respect them for how they handled this game. They had nothing to play for and they went out and played like they were in OUR position. Sometimes you just have to bow to your opponent, as much as you don't want to. They showed exactly the same toughness and passion that I wish we'd show more of, but seem incapable of when it matters most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
