Seriously? a stomach virus could spread to the others, i doubt rivera wants any of the other players to catch it. Are you that naive to think he actually has a stomach virus the morning of the game he was just demoted to 3rd string for? Come on man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on man. It’s not “naive”, it’s called having sympathy. The man is throwing up. Team doctors sent him home. It’s an actual thing. This isn’t him faking it.

Both guys at that younger age have shown eons more professionalism than Dwayne at 23...see what I did there Because learning from a consummate professional like Ryan Kerrigan, and being rotated in and out of a UNIT, is the same as being the starting QB...who was afforded no such luxuries (or even the benefit of being developed). And being a DT is a lot less low profile. It sure would've been nice if we had a Ryan Kerrigan like QB, that could've pushed Haskins on and off the field. (Before you bring Alex up, he was rehabbing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyvern Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 If you're referring to the Coaches' decision not to fight to the last timeout in the games that Washington was multiple scores behind... That would have been a good questions for the media to ask. I'm recounting what I took away from the presser, in regards to disrespecting Haskins. While I want to see a "never-say-die" attitude when Washington is down a couple of scores in the last few minutes of the games -- the offense I've seen is primarily a time-consuming dink&dunk offense and not very explosive. I'm not very confident that the offense can protect long enough for long passes needed for quick points. But I think he should have tried, like they did at the end in the Ravens game.

UKskins Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 1 hour ago, Skinsinparadise said: To me its simple. If you think Haskins is very unlikely to be a franchise QB and the kicker is you don't think he has the intangibles to make it happen. It's not loony at all not even a whit. Why waste more time? This is critical for me. I'm sick of the team wasting time on lame ducks. Gruden was so obviously out last season so why on Earth was he coaching? Get rid at the end of the prior season and move on. Kirk clearly wasn't good enough and constantly proved he didn't want to be here. Why did we bother playing on with him for 2 years when he didn't want anything to do with the franchise? We should have cut bait when it became clear he had no interest in a long term deal. If this is the end of the road for Haskins, I'm at peace with that. Good luck to the kid, but regardless of if he can succeed somewhere else, it seems clear to most that he can't/won't succeed here. I'd much rather cut bait now than 2.5 years further down the line. If he ain't it then he ain't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the work ethic stuff is true, you allow him to learn from professionals (not from the practice squad) BEFORE he ever sees the field. You don't hope & pray he's turned a corner AND hinge your season on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSkins Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Your head coach is battling cancer and getting aggressive treatment and he shows up without complaint. Gets IVs at halftime when necessary. You are getting paid millions by the team who invested a first round pick in you and you pout like a baby and say you have an ouchie in your tummy so you’re staying home? That’s your level of commitment to professionalism and your craft? Just mind boggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

profusion Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Haskins was always going to get a sorely needed humbling at some point. It should have been during the 2019 draft, but instead it's now. He can sulk and pout his way out of the NFL, or he can put the chip on his shoulder and get to work on learning how to be a successful QB. It's entirely up to him; there'll be teams that want him.

Its not an “ouchie on his tummy”, all reports are he’s been throwing up the past 48 hours, and the team decided to send him home (probably from the team hotel) before the team left for the stadium. It’s not an ouchie. It’s a stomach virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhunter Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 We need a 'skins meme Haskins on phone.

Hooper Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 It's not even a road game. Unless dude literally can't stop crapping his pants, this is just a terrible look for him.

And the gullibility of believing he’s actually sick is equally laughable. Of course the team would state that. You have an asset in death spiral you want to salvage for anything you can get for it.
