You can't win without a decent QB, and there aren't enough decent QBs to go around. Kirk is not Tom Brady, but he is a top 10 QB (top 15 if you're being stingy), and nowadays you have to pay those guys like they're Tom Brady. The fact that Kirk **** the bed today doesn't really change any of that. I'd love to sign him to a contract like Brady's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an absolute embarrassment to see all of that blue in the stands today. Your team is basically in a do or die playoff game and you sell your tickets to opposing fans? They are your tickets you can do what you want with them. But if you are a season ticket holder and sold your tickets for this game to a Giants fan. You are weak. Worst home field in the league in my opinion. 4-4 this year. Winning records at home are a rarity this century. And I'm sick of it. Once again today I went and was surrounded by visiting fans chanting "D-FENSE" when Skins had the ball "LET'S GO GI-ANTS"? It's nauseating. I hate going to that hole in the ground.

I think a lot of those seats are corporately owned. And really, people want to complain about how bad the stadium has been due to location and whatever, but the single worst thing was greedy Snyder installing the dream seats. Single handedly lowered the desirability of pretty much the whole 100 section along the sidelines. I know this gets into the "who's a real fan" debate, but who the hell wants to pay $150 and stand all game? The lower bowl was a sea of blue.

Think there was a guy close to him on his right and that guy was closing and putting pressure on him. Thought I saw the defender reach toward KC just as he released the ball. If he could elude the guy on the right he could have got us into fg range. Bad panic throw without thinking. Not having a safety valve close to LOS hurt too. Not the stuff of 25 mi a year.

skins island connection Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I like KC but god he just seems to freeze up at times. Often this year, the offense started off slow, KC was erratic, not playing good, until they began running no-huddle some, then he seemed to play better. Its like the longer he has to sit in the pocket the more content he is, until something bad happens. I think they call no huddle just so KC doesn't have time to think. Even though the score wasn't an indicator today, the Giants moved the ball a lot, especially in the running game. Guys out of position, players left uncovered, just sloppy football. Unenthusiastic. I know they expected the Giants to come in a and play the starters 1 series then sit, and when they saw they were still playing they all went to crap. First drive they punt, after that they moved the ball the rest of the game, big chunks of running yds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably a combination of a lot of factors. The DMV is very transient obviously which means people move here as fans of other teams. The stadium itself is sterile and in a horrible location and as someone else alluded to, it's an all day event that costs an arm and a leg. And many fans are tired of going there, paying an arm and a leg, being drowned out by opposing fans, and watching their Skins wilt under the lights over and over. If my wife didn't enjoy going, I would have given up my season tix YEARS ago. When we can't go, we do make sure our tix go to Skins fans, but that's always at a financial loss. I can't blame others for selling theirs to opposing fans who will give them face value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the bottom line is Kirk **** the bed AGAIN in a big time must win game. He just isn't an elite QB, and I don't think he should be paid like he is.

Only people who regurgitate whatever is on ESPN think he's elite Luck went to playoffs his first three years largely on his arm. He was a pro bowler, has a 2-1 TD/INT with a vastly inferior team on both sides of the ball and definitely less weapons. He's gotten the crap beaten out of him because of porous OL play. He has the largest playoff comeback in NFL history. If you think Kirk is anywhere close to Luck then your blinders are working overtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoach22 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 6 minutes ago, bigkobe81 said: Luck is not elite. Only people who regurgitate whatever is on ESPN think he's elite I agree. But neither is Cousins. Our QB is Alex Smith is realistically his ceiling. He'd be an idiot to chase a few more million and go to a team with less talent on offense. As even his biggest supporters concede, this guy cannot do it alone. If he is even average today the Skins win easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onedrop Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 can someone please explain why the official blocked Cousins from quickly snapping the ball after the Garcon reception? i agree with dickbag joe buck that it wasn't a catch but is an official preventing one team from snapping the ball even legal? if so how does ANY hurry up offense work? don't get me wrong we screwed the pooch but i have never even heard of anything so odd before, nor would i expect the commentators to react the way they did.

skins island connection Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 probably to give them time to set the markers. It did seem weird, I first thought the ref was wanting to check for a foul odor, but realized it was just the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoach22 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I'll heal and be back next year, but games where majority of the team fails to show are so hard to take. And I like Kirk, but he was terrible today. I mean, Brunell bad when he had the dead arm issues at the end of 2005. Every throw was a struggle requiring the receiver to make a miraculous catch. Forget elite, dude did not look like an NFL caliber third stringer today. He should have to five back part of the 19.9 he made this year for that BS.
