LOL @ Redskins

The single biggest problem I see with Skins fans is that they grossly overestimate the talent on our team. The truth of the reality is that we aren't a talented team (compared to others) and it's going to take a hell of a lot of work to get to the point where we need to be. Quite frankly, I"m happy as hell to be in the position we are right now because I know the ship is sailing in the right direction. It's obvious we have holes all across the board right now and hopefully we'll address them in the future drafts.


Interior OL
WRs
D-Line
Linebackers
Free Safety
QB (sorry, but you aren't going to win ball games with inconsistency at the main spot)

Shanny will get a good 4 years out of me before I complain about coaching. Just for once, Fanbase and Snyder, let the the GM and Coach get players together they want.

This team doesn't have any talent, and it's going to be a while. The Eagles have three WRs that could be the number one guy on our team, while we have only one receiver that might be the number two guy in the league. It's time to retool! I'm glad we have McNabb for a couple more years; it will give us time to focus on drafting what we really need.

56, funny you should mention the same BS coming out of Redskins park every year...

The Eagles fan I work with said even he's tired of hearing that very same thing.... "wait till next year."

You really can't compare the Wizards/Capitals to the Redskins. Redskins fanhood is on a whole different level. Fans call for firings at the first holding call in a preseason game

Unfortunately, I have a very bad feeling that this is the start of the downward spiral for us this year.

I don't think any team goes into a season and public says this a rebuilding year, that would be a PR nightmare.


Ted Leonsis has done so with the Wizards and for the most part the fans are responsive, at least to his honesty.

The Redskins are a little different, they have a star struck owner whose major interest is to fill seats and sell merchandise. To try and sell rebuilding might not go over so well. It also speaks to why we're always being sold on change with the majority of the fan base buying into just about every move made. I agree with the fact the fans wouldn't be quite as dissapointed with the losing if they weren't so willing to view everything in the positive, instead have the foresight and patience to wait some of these moves through before forming an opinion.

I was only comparing Snyders unwillingness to say rebuild, where Leonsis was / is very open that his teams rebuild with youth and through the draft.

when leonsis rebuilt the caps, he took ALOT of crap from fans and season ticket holders for the way he sent kolzig, bondra others packing. it was well covered when he had a near fight with a caps fan.

i think from a money stand point, given how many season tickets werent renewed last year (the skins were desperate to sell ST this offseason), i dont think snyder could afford to say rebuild. too much money at stake.

could you imagine if we traded/got rid of fletcher, landry portis moss cooley . . . . snyder and the skins would have taken a huge huge loss. imo i dont think snyder has as much money as people think nowadays. i see his riches tied directly to what he makes from the skins.

Well it doesn't seem that Snyder is looking to interfere

Funny thing about the Eagles WRs. DeSean Jackson's first catch in the game was obviously huge and set the tone for the game, but other than that he really didn't do anything in two games against us

I just dont get where Eagle fans should be upset. They have been one of the more dominating teams over the last 10 years. 9 playoff appearances in 11 years. of those 9 - 5 NFC championships, 1 superbowl appearance. I would gladly trade our last 10 years for theirs in a second.
