The new villain will be cast, hurry everyone buy your tickets! I can't believe it. Actually, I totally can. It's been a long time coming, and I partly hate myself for it... but I'm actively rooting against the Owner and Team President of the franchise I adore. Which, in a sense, means I'm rooting against the franchise. And it's totally legitimate. That's where they've pushed me. As hard as I've tried not to go there, they've insisted. I hope Kirk punishes them. Assholes. I agree with Breer's recent article. It's time for Kirk to put those aholes on a "prove it" deal. But I'll go a step further. In the same way they did it to him, he should be adamant they can't ever really, truly, "prove it". Just talk like they did. And nitpick every perceived issue they've had. Rank their FO structure, which IS actually crap by any logical observation. Damnit. Its already out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2018 draft could be one of the better drafts in a long time for a signal caller. Is it possible to start tanking now? That's the only way to be in a position to get one of them.

ExoDus84 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Well, took precisely zero time for Allen to **** on Kirk and his agent. Some of the blame may fall on them, but with Snyder/Allen's MO of taking a firm **** on anyone/anything that doesn't go their way, I have a hard time believing this is the whole story. Pathetic man.

justice98 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Bruce says Kirk wants to play year to year, but I kinda translate that to, it doesn't matter what they offered, he wasnt gonna take it cuz he wants to hit free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartyPosse Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 IF it's true they would have paid him an average that, at the time, would have been second highest (Before the Carr deal), then it would fall somewhere in the mid 24 million range.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Bruce had that bad boy ready to go for release at 4pm today pronto. I have no idea what or who to believe other than my god, we are destined to always be clown shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinInsite Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Really good to throw shade at your starting QB and his agent. That will make next years negotiation much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy Yoda Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 So, looking back at 2012, we had two franchise QBs and mishandled both about as poorly as you could. Kirk is gone next year, no matter what, trade value is zero and half our team is on one year contracts. 2018 is basically a rental season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I think nothing of Bruce Allen and I still can't believe he would put out that statement. Add it to the list of fireable offenses. Entire season is going to be a distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobisimo Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Bruce Allen (not really): "Our goal was to sign Kirk to a long-term deal with the final objective of having him finish his career with the Redskins. As such, we offered Kirk a 14-year contract with $53m guaranteed. In fact, the entire value of the contract was guaranteed. This is truly an historic offer. We're amazing. What a fool this Kirk kid is for passing on a 14-year contract worth a whopping $53m! Would you decline a $53m contract? Truly, this kid does not get how hungry people in Africa are. You should all go hate on him. But after this year. Because for this year he's still unfortunately our guy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyvern Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Once again -- the Redskins will be attracting the most attention for all their off-season drama. The Skins FO decision to forego a long term deal will garner some media scrutiny. Not sure the attention is going to all be positive, or reflect well on the organizational acumen of the Snyder/Allen team. But, ....."Are you not entertained?"

Burgold Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Even if what Bruce is saying is true. This is burning the bridge before the season. Does nothing positive for team morale. Does nothing to smooth the waters for next year. Does everything to make things worse. Pathetic cover your arse letter by Bruce Allen. Even if it's true. Keep it in house!

Conn Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 We suck. Either because we didn't offer enough or because Cousins doesn't want to be here long term, either way we suck. That statement from Bruce is the most defensive thing I've ever seen. It's really not a good look. It's super passive aggressive. Hasn't this FO learned their lesson about trying to use the media as a tool to win over the fans during disputes? Like really recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
