Anselmheifer Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 As much as I want Chase and the defense to be awesome, I’m rooting even harder for Haskins. If Haskins can be a top 10 QB, this team has it made. We will be in contention for 10 years. If he’s a bottom 15 QB, we are still the Cleveland Browns or NYJ.

I agree, however I don't think it's that black and white. As long as he's average, they'll do well. We saw that when Alex Smith was at the helm. If you can get the defense and ground game performing at a high level, you're golden. The Rivera hire speaks to ground game and defense. If Reuben Foster and Holcomb are out there healthy and playing smart, the sky is the limit for that front seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with Turner at OC, the short passing game to RB’s etc will be as big as the running game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of doubt RR will be overruling him or butting in to call plays a lot. He'll obviously be the final word in overall game preparation and in general on game day, but I feel like he's a guy who can delegate well and trusts the people he hired. Turner runs a relatively pass-happy offense it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Smith/Kirk Cousins level of play on his rookie deal is what the team really needs. If he doesn’t prove to be game changing, then recycle him and bring in a value veteran/draft another rookie. So it’s not just about him achieving an average level of play, but when he does it. Top 20 QB play next season for Haskins has tremendous value to the team. Only pay the elite at the QB spot.

Renegade7 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Impulse bought a White Washington Football Team Haskins jersey from team website, saying I might not get it until October because it's specialty item ineligible for the 20% discount. I don't care, my body is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the story of Alex Smith, I've always thought he was a super cool person and leader. But I think as a Qb he's been mostly average throughout his NFL career. If the Chiefs thought he was the dude to take them to the promised land they would have kept going on that ride. Love the idea of Alex as the backup QB because arguably he brings intangibles that some have questioned in Dwayne. So I think Alex would bring out Dwayne's best. Plus Alex > Kyle Allen. My point is Dwayne has the higher ceiling than Alex. Alex aside from arguably one year has never been a great QB. He's been mostly average to good. Haskins has the ability to be great. I'd play out that script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTRDynasty Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Thought this was interesting. Shows Haskins scrambled quite a bit last year relative to other QBs around the league, and that was before he lost all that body fat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wit33 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Happy the consensus seems to be not wanting a Alex Smith or Kirk Cousins level QB for the upcoming season at a cost of 20 plus mil per season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Dwayne's career is on the line. New coach. New offense to learn. An aging veteran, coming off a major injury, will compete with him for the job. An abnormal offseason/training camp. Dwayne needs to seize the moment. If he can't beat out Smith; that's a bad sign. If he doesn't show, he's the future; that's also a bad sign. IF the decide they need to move on next year and draft a QB, they will. It's up to Dwayne to prove to Washington, he's the guy. If he can't; then he'll probably suffer the fate of Josh Rosen. He went from first round draft pick, to being traded in year 2. Now, he's a third string QB and his career will probably be over soon.

PFF does that to all fringe players. They will post articles that highlight a players strengths and then another that points out their many flaws. They really like to play both sides of the fence. I like their data gathering team but man, their opinions are near worthless to me. Don't believe me? test it. I haven't looked, but I'd bet my rotten left kidney (never bet the good one) that Daniel Jones gets the same treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
