Hooper Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 They should seriously tank for two years so they can get Lawrence. That would at least be a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To really peg it down I'd say most people were for 'not Manusky' and Gregg Williams just happens to be a name that people knows.  instead of change it's this weird version of the 'same' where people know they aren't loved, but are pretending everything is cool.  It's become this weird type of normal where nothing changed, but people in jobs feel less safe. the only true consistency with the franchise is this -  whatever needs to be done, even if it is to do absolutely nothing, the skins will find the way to go about it in the worst possible way, with the most embarrassing results imaginable.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would at least be a plan.  Lawrence ideally but I can take Tua next year. I among others have been saying this for awhile but heck it was even a discussion point on 106.7, the way teams typically go from bad to very good or mediocre to very good is to get really bad and get really bad during the right year. IMO 2019 and 2020 either year would be a really good time to get really bad.  So I am not really frustrated by anything thus far -- they might got it cooking this off season.  I am looking forward to Bruce's bargain basement FA signings next.  The only thing that might foil this is if Dan is emotional as people say he is -- he might be going crazy and hankering to make some short sighted move. The only thing right now they can do to get me down is to trade away their 2020 #1 pick in some short sighted move.  If Bruce thinks fans are all in, I suspect they are in for a surprise if their selling point is a variation of watch Colt McCoy lead the formerly 6-3 team from last year.  We all know that great things were coming in 2018, now watch it all go down over a full season.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carex Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Manusky has been a DC for three other teams and as I recall GW's defenses did as much of the bend but don't break.... until the worst possible time stuff the other coaches in that era did. I remember a ton of times during the 00s where we're down two scores at the half, the O finally comes to life in the second get it to one score and if the defense can just hold them out we look like we can come back. Then the D gives up a ten minute drive and another score and it's mid fourth and it's once again a two score game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeverSurrender Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 This thread is a joke. 1.) Would everyone be cool if we fired Manuski with no replacement? I actually like what they are doing, He did a **** job last year so he should be on the block. As far as im concerned they can and should talk to any/every DC they want. If Manuski is lucky enough to be the DC next year he will know that he needs to do better. This is called accountability. It also extends to DJ Swearinger. 2.) The sky is not falling, Ill sig bet anyone we win at least 7 games next year. Which would be a 5 year stretch where we have won at least 7 games. Just FYI you have to go back to Gibbs 1 to find a stretch like that.  3.) Stop crying, this is the best we have been in 20 years, we may just need a few things to go our way to have a really good season.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will people feel if Dan trades up and takes Murray (Okla, QB)? It'll be RGlll talk all over again....Until Murray refuses to play for such a messed up organization and goes to baseball instead. Maybe that would be the kick in the groin that Dan needs to make significant changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wasn't a Wood fan due to his D rating (22nd overall) but if the Skins can find a better DC than we need to get him. Ed Donatell is interviewing for the DC in Denver and they probably hire him so there goes another good option at DC.

Totally agree with the bolded area. Colt barely makes it as a backup QB, IMO. I look for the Skins to draft a QB but our OL really needs help to protect our next high pick QB so he doesn't get beat up and have to retire early. I wouldn't mind our 1st two selections being OL.
