SkinsFTW Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Belichick would beat the Redskins with his bench players. Kinda like Gibbs with the scab team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volsmet Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 @carex You read this post & liked the brilliant ESer who was dismissive of it. I thought you were against people being dismissive, very passive aggressive forum move, disappointing.

Almost every team has had major set backs.... New Orleans lost Drew Brees...and now Kamara, Carolina is playing an udfa rookie at QB, SF lost their best OL, Indi watched Andrew Luck retire, NE is missing 40% of their OL, GB is missing their only outside threat... all are positioned to make the playoffs. I went through where I rated each of our position groups & that was dismissed by a couple, including poster @Bonez3. I went into detail about why we’d be precisely who we are. tell me, what post? Anyway, we have talent and they definitely quit on Gruden. Gutty win vs Miami and last week in a monsoon they showed grit. We need a few pieces on the O-line, TE & secondary. Get that draft capital and develop Haskins. I would love to draft to O lineman in the first round (with T. Williams pick) and fill in the rest with TE/DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard t truly judge players that quit on their coach. I want to see where we're at in December. We certainly have needs and need draft capital and some young FA's. But yea, I agree, there are some fast tracks to competitiveness. Of course, so much depends on Haskins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at that time many thought that Williams would be back after missing a game or two, Guice would be part of 3 headed monster at RB, defense would be one of the better ones in the NFL, Haskins would be starting within a month or so, etc, etc, etc. Sadly - it is the same story with this team just about every year - we are at a low pt at the end of the season, the team makes some flashy moves to encourage us in the offseason & then we are let down once again in the regular season.

bakedtater1 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I understand where the op is coming from...I haven't even seen swflskins this year..maybe once or twice..its definitely taken its toll on fans...theres still a core group of fans here though that make this place great to come to..everyone that puts in there time and effort to provide me information for what I call my favorite football team..the Redskins...this whole knowing for a fact the Patriots will represent the superbowl every ****ing year is realy taking a toll on me by being a fan of the nfl and the Redskins. I can look past the yucky performances by the refs and enjoy each football season..I noticed a poster basically backing me up on that absolute bull **** ref getting in the way preventing the forced fumble play..Ive seen plenty o times where refs were still backtracking getting out of the way when the ball was snapped and they allowed the play to continue...back on track..even this year I've seen quite a few awesome games..yes the refs ****ed over the saints already this year and they screwed the lions..and it's a shame for those teams and fans..it really is...but I get past it and on to the next weekend of football. Despite the Patriots putting a damper on the passion that I have for the nfl I still love the game, enough to say "yes I have a favorite football team" its unfortunate that my favorite team is horrible but there still my favorite football team and it is a hobbie of mine I have always enjoyed, win or lose. Extremeskins is the only place I can get my "Facebook" on. I dont facebook or Twitter or anything else..so while the redskins are a dumpster fire at least the place I call home on the ol world wide web is still great!..thanks eerrebody!!

We saw more of Bruce Allen on TV then probably during the rest of his time combined. The pt being we were being sold that this team was heading in the rt direction & might actually contend for a playoff spot. Several people bought into this to some degree - me included. Do you really believe that most folks thought that Haskins would ride the pine for the for most/all of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any Super Bowl that the Patriots are in the Redskins could also be in. The Patriots have 0 effect on the NFC representative in the Super Bowl. So you are left with the fact that the Redskins (Doofus Dan Snyder and Brewse) just suck. In fact there hasn't been a SB dominant NFC team since the 80-90s when it was 49ers/Redskins/Cowboys/Giants/Packers. The Redskins could be in one easily, but we're now the old Detroit Lions or St Louis Cardinals, actually maybe more like the 1980s version of the Tampa Bay Bucs. Except I don't believe that our clowns would actually be smart enough to draft the next Steve Young and then screw it up. They'd draft Jeff George though.

Ya..not sure ya get my point.. same goes for any team in the NFC.. so each year it's okay so we know for a fact it will be the Patriots and it will be one of a handful of teams in the NFC.. like I said before each year at training camp or preseason I put the Redskins representing the NFC each year this year last year the year before 5 years from now and it's so very well could be the Redskins representing the NFC.. knowing the Patriots will be in it each year is stupid I hate it and it's ugly it's gotten real old since 2001 yeah it's old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Redskins being a steaming 💩 joke of a team with an owner that everyone else laughs about because he has no ****ing clue what he is doing and he's been doing it since Bill Clinton was president. When this clown bought the team I was about 8 years out of high school, now I'm about 18 years from 65. We haven't won **** the entire time. It's all Doofus Dans fault, not Belichick, Brady, Kraft, or anyone else's fault. It's always been the same clown who said from day one that he really doesn't have a plan.

I normally like coming in here and going back and forth with Skins fans. At this point though what is there even to talk about. I mean when I look at this team and organization it just downs me. We've got absolutely nothing good to talk about with this team. I think the hardest part is knowing that there is no direction with this team. The future doesn't even look bright. It's just sad and personally takes a joy out of something I look forward to every year. Just to be disappointed every year. I want to point out it has nothing to do with the forums. This is one of the best ran sites when it comes to bsing about sports. I'm just getting to the point where I'm wondering what's the point anymore with this team. Maybe this shouldn't have been a thread I just feel like this team has finally broke me. I've been on ES since day 1. Been a fan since Superbowl 22. I love it here. Yes, it's true the Skins haven't given me much joy. I've posted more in the tailgate. If we track tailgate posts, my post count would probably be triple what it is. I've adjusted my expectations for the Redskins. Dan will probably live another 25 to 30 years. I am 51. So, the Skins will never be a consistent winner in my lifetime. I've accepted that fact. I expect a coaching change on average, every 4 to 5 years. Year 1 will be a disappointment, as team adjusts to new coach. The playoff window will be years 2 and 3. If we are lucky, we get 2 playoff years but at least 1. It all falls apart in year 4 or 5 and coach gets fired. Rinse and repeat, forever. The only way this team goes to a Superbowl, is if it goes on a hot streak. The team will never be a consistent winner under Dan. Dan could hire a real gm and let them do their job. Honestly, how long will that last? Maybe a couple of years before Dan starts interfering and undermine that gm. My guess it wouldn't last more than 3-4 years before the gm is fired or departs. Dan can't change his stripes and at some point, he will revert to his usual self. So, that is the life of a Redskin fan under Synder. I am to old to change, so I will remain a fan. If I was half my age, I would bail and find another team. Dan will never sell. For you younger fans, you will have to wait until Dan dies; to see consistent winning Skins football. You hope his kids are better or they sell the team to a good owner. If you come to state of acceptance I did, you will be fine. If not, especially the younger fans; it maybe time to move on. There are 31 other teams. For those in the D.C. area; the nearby Ravens will probably win another couple of Super bowls in Dan's lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason it looks passable is because of the way the games have played out the past 2 weeks. And even with Trent it will still look bad because the cohesion is not there and we have serious issues at coaching and quarterback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
