JSSkinz Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Those grades were from quite a while ago, when you play crappy the grades come down, both players will probably finish ranked in the high 70's by seasons end. Right now DJ's YTD grade is an 80.9 and Dix is an 81.6, that was before today's game so they will come down even more before next weeks finale.

D’Pablo Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Perhaps the worst safety play I’ve ever seen. I think we could possibly pin this entire loss on Clinton-Dix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPG Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 How can this guy be this bad unless he doesn't care? I swear he's the reason Montae went and beat some fools. JK... But yeah to lose your Job to this dude.. Is he the reason Kirk torched the packers on SNF years back? Its not even the draft pick we gave for you. Its the waste of space he consumed during his tenure. He's a floppy armed muppet with jewels in his ears but nothing else between them. Heartless BAmma. Bill Burr rant over.......

Playaction2Sanders Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I'm not saying he's bad, he's not making any plays for us, but he isn't terrible, he's just there.. But I'm sure on film behind the scenes he's doing things the coaches probably like. Just highlight film wise and our hightened expectations from our Safeties since you know who was here, and the fact he's a first round talent he's just not doing anything for us fans..

That's where most of the hype he was getting came from. "Oh look, HaHa has good ratings from PFF, he MUST be good!" <PFF stuff> What are you saying? Bruce Allen is scouting guys on PFF!

Est.1974 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Keep in mind Dix is actually playing for a contract. Hard to make sense of his play. He looks scared to me. I could see us offering him a very modest deal and then drafting a FS. Or....I could also see us dumping both him and DJ, due to his mouth, and starting over.

My problem with dumping Swearinger too is how many holes can we fill in one off season? FS, LG, WR, MLB, OLB -- maybe even TE and QB. That's a lot on their plate already. We've been living in safety wasteland seemingly forever pre Swearinger. Bad enough I think we need to find a FS -- both would be intimidating and I gather a venture back into signing guys who are just guys -- that's been Bruce's record mostly on that position.

Est.1974 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 @Skinsinparadise personally I like DJ and would retain him. It depends if he becomes a victim of FO politics/muscle flexing. The Jon Allen tweet supporting Manusky was interesting though. I'd wager the locker room dynamics are a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Finlay said some in that locker room agrees with Swearinger. And based on Allen's tweet some don't.

heavyjumbo72 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Bye - Bye Swearinger and Ha-Ha. Calling out coaches in rants is just about a guarantee for instructions to start packing - and now with Allen getting involved sure thing a rift is created, like a cancer which will quickly spread and cause harm.

Jesus. Can we please fire our coach that obviously sucks, and not get rid of Swearinger, who isn’t our most talented defender? this team needs discipline from the top down. Suspend Swearinger and Mason foster and start holding people accountable. I’d love to see what the defense could achieve with a solid defensive coordinator. When we hired him, no one really though Manusky was going to be good, did we? We now have a lot a lot of talent on defense. We should be able to attract a top coordinator. And as bad as the whole defense has looked, I honestly don’t know how accurately we can evaluate Ha Ha. I worry he’ll go off to a competent system and produce next year.

veteranskinsfan Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I wonder if DJ called out the coach on purpose because he is ready to leave the Skins if they keep Manusky? Still it is wrong to call out the coach to the news media and a lot of teams might now want to retain him for that reason alone. Or did DJ vent because he really wants the defense to be better and it was not about him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Grudens handling of the Mason Foster stuff shows that. Hes not a leader and hes not going to tell players who to behave, so that basically leaves players to either all behave on their own, or if they dont, chaos as theres no one with authority in the building.

Leonard Washington Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Dix had a chance yesterday to make a difference and failed. It was a huge mistake to make him a full time player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading Packers message boards after the trade, their consensus seemed to be that he has been avoiding contact this year to avoid injury prior to hitting free agency. They had a "highlight" film of him avoiding hits, and it honestly looked like he was doing it on purpose, not just missing tackles or being in the wrong position.

Unbias Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Many loved the deal because the comp pick should be a 3rd, so nothing was lost. I'm starting to wonder if this play in Washington has hurt his market value? He might have to take a one year, prove it type deal. If that's the case this trade can actually get worse.

It's easy to say DL vs LB and DB, but half our LB spend most of their time on DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
