Redskins v/s Eagles Predictions

It's weird having so many Sundays during these few weeks without Redskins football.

With how our team is playing, that might not be such a bad thing. :laughing-

I find relief actually. Get alot done those days.

I have to say, EVERY quote I hear from the defensive players sounds like their heads are turned the wrong way. I know I am probably just bitter about how they have played, but when Rob Jackson says "“This guy’s[Nick Foles] just a pocket passer, so we can just pin our ears back and rush him and don’t have to worry too much about staying in our lanes and our dots and things like that,” or Barry Cofield saying "“You’re going against a guy who’s going to be at a lower level, not gonna be operating at the way you expect a quality quarterback." or just about any DHall quote from this week I end up thinking that this D is gonna get so fried this week it's not going to be fun at all.

wow. No your right, I see it too. The flipside to this would be the New England players. Say their playing the 0-10 colts from last year, I don't remember hearing any of them saying "Oh curtis painter sucks" but I'm sure the players were thinking it instead their heads, its just that they told the media what they wanted to hear so they couldn't get a story out of it.

When I hear the players make statements I think 'PC'. There's no substance to them, unlike back in the '70's-'80's where they'd say inflammatory stuff knowing it would only get as far as the other locker room. Now it's all over YouTube, Twitter etc in a second and some FO tool is asking them to tone it down for the sake of the brand.

Just once a season I'd like to hear a foaming-at-the-mouth rant from a player who genuinely hates the Cowboys/Eagles/Giants talking about what they're going to do. Backing it up would be nice too.

What the D says? Just air. Pay no mind, move along.

You think calling the opposing qb a "lower level" or not a "quality qb" is "PC". That is dismissive to the point of ridiculousness. And no one on our defense especially should be looking at any qb as other than the best qb in the whole frikkin world, because that's what they have been making them look like so far this year.

It's weak sauce.

"He's not a quality QB....." That's a dull slight.

How about "Draft a QB like him, you get a free bowl of soup", a la AL Czervik*. Come on NFL, let us have our characters back!
