Commander Adama Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I have to say that I was the most disappointed with our last lost to the Eagles. I did still have hopes that the team would turn it around and make it to the Playoffs, and I was so excited about the turnaround last week with the Giants. Now I just feel drained and I am starting to worry about the offseason. What Coach will or won't return. What's going to happen with our picks. If the Redskins will finally wise up and get someone to replace Cerato. I just hope Coach Gibbs stays, Jensen recovers, we resolve talks with Smoot, Smauels, and Gardner. Also, I am so tired of the media having a feeding frenzy on the Redskins. They are a great team who have stuck together even with their record.

gillherb Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Displaced Redskins fan, you are wrong because for the first time since the offseason (of course) we are getting some respect around the league, although there is still no confidence nationwide at our offense. When people think of good defenses right now in the NFL, they think of the Pittsburghs, the Baltimores, the Phillys, and THE WASHINGTONS of the league. We are now in that echelon. Plus I have confidence in our drafts now, since Taylor and Cooley are both studs, and those 2 tackles are pretty sturdy. Keep the faith it's gonna happen!

the big slim Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I wouldn't worry to much....They almost beat the very best team in the NFC....That is showing great improvement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Not to mention this offseason might be nice and boring for once. Something that means we should be all on the same page come minicamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 As far as I'm concerned, after watching the game Sunday night, the only reason we're not Super Bowl contenders is that we lost too many games early. I remember Berman one year, announcing who the last wildcard team was, saying that so-and-so was "joining the ranks of teams who're glad that San Francisco didn't make the playoffs". This year, that teams is us. The only teams that aren't glad they aren't playing us, are the ones that didn't watch the game. Now, it remains to be seen if we can maintain that intensity. But if we can, then the Glory Days have already started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feeshta Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 McNabb said he is glad he won't be seeing us again this year himself. That should say a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitbull Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 You Know I really dont like Mcnabb But I respect the way he plays, he's a good quaterback, soughta like Emmit Smith, I hated Emmit, but loved the way he played the game. Now as for our team, man keep your head up, this team is starting to take shape of a Joe Gibbs team, the intensity, the attitude, the physical ruff plays. Just because JG is calm and in control at all time, he has a fire and a passion for physical football. I said this once in another thread but, I dont believe all of our offensive problems are in the system itself, and most old timers will agree, JG coached teams always played with the intensity level that our team played with Sunday night, that level of intensity is what made that man so damn good. Its coming dont worry, we just need a good relativily quiet off-season, gain the continuity that our team has lacked for years and watch out.

Raub Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 We're on the right track man. It's going to be a long off-season, but I think it'll be worth it come next year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtyler42 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Dont worry, this team is quietly improving, it takes time io change the whole identity of an offense from finese to power...We are finally beginning to see the system on o take hold....Just be a little more patient...

fuji869 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 My worse loss has to be the Ravens Loss. It was an interconference rivalry, we had the Ravens beat in the first half and to make it worse I was at the game! :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenaa Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Just because JG is calm and in control at all time, [\QUOTE]This is exacly why his teams play with such intensity. They have a leader who they know will give them every opportunity to be successful, and when the chips are down, will be a pillar of stability and consistency. This makes guys fight their guts out for him. He gives his players the highest respect, demands discipline and quality, and gets respect as a result. They want to win for him. He is their leader. And, despite the outward calmness, noone can challenge Coach's fire and intensity. It is easily seen in his work ethic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poidog22 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 My worse loss this season was the Packers game. I was there, and to go from euphoria to despair in the matter of seconds because of one highly questionable penalty really, really sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignatius J. Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 There are too many arguments that the philly game was our best game to date to get down about it. Ramsey completed several third down passes to various recievers and showed excellent pocket presence. The reciever's hands were glue, including gardner's. Cooley is making a name for himself on national TV. Our defense played astounding football against one of the leagues best offenses. It really wasn't a bad day.

Commander Adama Posted December 16, 2004 Author Share Posted December 16, 2004 I definitely think Joe has turned this team around. I just think the record doesn't reflect how good they really are! They had Philly until that one play! *cries* I can't imagine how good the team would be with Jensen back, more drafted O Linemen, and some D Linemen Studs! Woah! I went to a lot of games this season and was even supposed to go to the Giants game, and only didn't because it seemed we lost every game I went to. I thought I might be jinxing the team! Now before you start thinking "this guy is off his rocker", I didn't totally believe that, but it started to feel like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illone Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 The Redskins will NOT be the team to make the biggest splash in FA this off-season. I'd bet $$ on it, even though the mediots will be lurking in the shadows waiting for us to sign someone, ANYONE, to a HUGE contact and signing bonus. I don't see it happening this year.
