Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

Shanahan has really drafted some excellent talent last year. I hope the trend continues next year.

I agree. We need two more drafts like this last one and we're on our way. I just hope they don't get stupid and trade away picks. Keep the picks and make solid choices. I do see light at the end of the tunnel. Nice win today.

Yeah Mike and Bruce have done a good job last 2 seasons, it doesn't show with wins but we will be fine once we actually have a QB

"Originally Posted by EARTHQUAKE2689: If the season ended now we would pick 6th or 7th right? We could still land RGIII or Barkley there."

Yes we still can, I was just meaning that if they aren't available and we pick at we'll say #7 I'd rather just stay there and draft a CB or WR and make solid picks in the rest of the rounds.

I know the team needs O Linemen, but we need them more for depth than a guaranteed starter and I'd wait till the 3rd, 4th, 5th rounds for those positions.

Well I'm not gonna lie, I'm pissed that we won, because now we're just that much further from a great player whomever it may be. We need Carolina, Arizona, Minnesota, and Jacksonville to do better, as in win a couple more games. Cleveland too. That will help us draft at 3 at the highest, needless be that its a QB, OL, WR, etc. that we take.


And as for the whole "Should we loose out. No we shouldn't that's bad and dumb," argument, I'm split and see both sides of the argument. But the edge has to go to the 'lose out' fans.

This team isn't going anywhere, and winning now isn't going to make this team become even an 8-8 team next year. As they say "the nfl is a QB driven league." Theres only one position in the league which a team builds around and gameplans around; the QB. The better the QB, the better the team is. You draft the right QB, your team becomes better. You hit on the right QB, a lot of those positions with ? marks by them suddenly disappear, or become less important of a need.

A good amount of people believe the skins were 4-12 at best this year. I suggest you finish at that Redskins.

So we want the redskins to be nasty, dominate team in the future, but they should be taught to lose so we can have better draft position?

Dumb Dumb Dumb.

I still think we can grab a top 5 pick.. Our schedule is hard and I only see 1 maybe 2 more wins.. Carolina will win 2 more but JAX, MIN and CLE wont

I am pretty torn on the whole thing. I am happy that we won, but I see how we are hurting ourselves in terms of a draft position. There is something to be said about winning culture, etc. and losing on purpose really doesn't help either. There are many great franchises that continue to get great talent "despite" making it to the playoffs each year. Luck was always out of reach and if we want another QB I think we can always trade up.

I wouldn't have been horribly upset if we lost, however.

No.. Losing mentality is something Washington has had for to long.. I think that's why we always end up in close games, missed FG's, turnovers, blocked FG's, terrible kickoffs, etc etc etc.. Its burned into the soul of Washington that mediocre play for part of the game is okay..

We need to stop this crap right now.. Winning is all that matters in the NFL. If you are not winning it doesn't matter. What kind of evaluation as a team do you bring out if you can't win games? It doesn't matter how good you THINK someone is at a position and what you feel is solid on your team if they are not winning games.

At this point I just hope for close games and guys to add stats.. Helu, 98-91, FD Etc.

Going 6-10 will easily boot us out of the top 5. We were 6-10 last year and we picked 10th.
