Well, we have an interim HC and it’s only week 10 or something right? Nothing is ever as it should be here lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That I didn't comment on and I agree. It should be from Callahan. Pertaining to Callahan he's not HC material, IMO. He's being used as a puppet right now when it comes to the QB position, I'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinking Skins Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 4 hours ago, Skinsinparadise said: Hoffman just on 106.7. Said there was a meeting on Monday with Doug and Haskins. He's not sure what transpired except Haskins was left with the impression that he'd start. Not sure if this has been posted yet, but in Keim's podcast, he had a little nugget in there about Haskins interception against the Vikings and how he talked to Doug Williams about it and Doug told him that it sailed because he didn't set his feet. Not much there, but it's good to know that the two have a relationship. I know Doug said he wanted to have a relationship with RG3, but it never developed. I don't think it's Doug's job to be a QB coach, but he does know the position and has had success there, and I think it can be good that he's (Haskins) talking with somebody. Not really related to the starting news, but thought it was interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zCommander Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I am baffled here. Why did they announce that Haskins is the starter when you are in bye-week mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he's gonna be taking all the practices with the 1s and Bill probably didn't wanna spend 2 weeks answering the same friggin questions about Case over and over.

No, its just TedSkins is not on the Haskins bandwagon and is simply comparing Haskins to Byron Leftwich. It's a silly comparison because he's played one year of college ball and his experience level is lacking which puts him at a disadvantage. Hail Em Up!

We'll see what happens with him, though. If he makes it work he makes it work. Yeh, it is possible he can make it work. I know this has been mentioned before, but if you watch Kyler Murray, his mechanics are kind of wild to watch as well. I know a lot of that has been attributed to baseball and the arm angles and stuff, but the point being it CAN work without having perfect mechanics. Remember Philip Rivers coming out? There isn't a more unorthodox looking motion in the league, and he's a borderline HOFer. Meanwhile everyone was so high on Josh Rosen's mechanics... The other thing is, Haskins has shown he does have the ability to get set and throw a beautiful ball. If he can do it sometimes, he can learn to do it more often. That's the thing about Kyler right now, when he does get set and throws it properly, he throws absolute dimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJHJR86 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 From what I gather, Callahan wanted to wait and see if Keenum would clear the concussion protocol and probably would've named him the starter if he cleared this week, but the FO had other plans and went over his head and told Haskins he would start. Which is exactly what all of the winning organizations do in the NFL. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leftwich comparison doesn't make sense. Leftwich and Jason Campbell were destined for mediocrity because of a painfully slow release and, particularly in the case of JC, an inability to throw with enough velocity to thread the needle between defenders. Haskins has a very fast release and solid arm strength for both distance and velocity. His issue is his accuracy goes to **** the moment he is pressured off his spot. Maybe this will improve with reps, probably more likely it won't. If you want to lump him in with a QB bust, Sanchez would be more analagous - both had limited experience in college but were considered high prospects with the hope that mechanical flaws could be remedied.

And I want Haskins to start. But this ain't how you go about it unless you are a dysfunctional dumpster fire. I agree. On 980 radio this morning they have a report from another radio station WJFK that Doug Williams told Haskins he would start the rest of the games this year BEFORE Callahan told the media that he has full control of the 53 man roster. The dumpster fire continues with dysfunction at top of the management chain. Front office continues to control coaching staff that does not want their control imposed on them. Gruden is gone and the nonsense continues. Left hand and the right hand refuse to work with each other. Does this happen on the Patriots, 49ers, Seahawks, Saints, Vikings, etc.?? This is the owners fault. Jack Kent Cooke told Bobby Beathard (GM) and Gibbs that if they could not make a joint decison about a player they would go to him and the owner would break the tie. This forced the GM and Head Coach to agree more so they did not have to escalate their disagreements to the owner. The Danny continues to allow chaos. The players are stuck in the middle of the cream filled cookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skins are a disaster, but insisting that Haskins should start is a no-brainer. Also, no coach is ever going to want to come here under the current FO. Might as well promote KOC now.

Skin'emAlive Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I dont see an issue with Haskins and Doug Williams being close. If anything, I think thats a great thing. That is precisely the reason to have a guy like Williams around in the FO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
