sdskinsfan2001 10-13-2017, 03:31 AM The good ole NFCE where the previous year means absolutely nothing.
The Eagles are legit.
Refs cheated for Carolina and it didn't matter.
Newton played like a scared little man tonight.
We have to win the next 2.
CRedskinsRule 10-13-2017, 08:52 AM I didn't watch the whole game, but what I did see - it seemed like the refs gave a couple free hits to Eagles defenders and somehow didn't call Newton's layout a touchdown, even you could freeze frame the ball over the goalline and all his body off the ground.
I also saw Newton throwing freebie interceptions on the last drive until the last throw into the ground.
Eagles do look good, and look like a mean Jim Schwarz defense :(
over the mountain 10-13-2017, 09:39 AM I think we are ok whether Elliot plays us or not, BUT ...
Ezekiel Elliott suspension reinstated after court ruling - NFL.com (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000860432/article/ezekiel-elliotts-suspension-reinstated-after-court-ruling)
I didnt read the actual opinion but I believe the injunction was lifted bc Elliott didnt exhaust his available remedies per CBA protocol .. basically any appeal was premature.
I imagine this goes back into NFL hands, Zeke exhausts his remedies available to him under the CBA, then he can file a stay of the suspension and appeal w Fed Co.
Regardless, my understanding is that these appeals are not fact based appeals (meaning Fed Co isnt trying to decide if Zeke committed assault, etc) but limited to review of procedural errors -- did the NFL not follow their CBA and maybe, whether employment discipline procedure is fair, reasonable and provides due process to players.
I think Zeke plays for the foreseeable future until all these legal boxes get checked off.

Carolina gave this game to the Eagles. That deflected INT deep in the Panther's own territory set the Eagles up nicely. And then the other turnovers. The Panthers seem pretty soft up the middle. The Eagles were able to gash them for 7 yard runs. However, the Panthers' D did get to Wentz several times, and we all remember how ol' RGIII used to be criticized for the style of play he was playing. Well, I'm seeing the same thing with Wentz. He's taking a lot of hits. That could come into factor later on in the season.
I think the 'skins defense is better than the Panthers', and I think the 'skins will have something to prove come next week when they face the Eagles again.
Chico23231 10-13-2017, 10:20 AM Man, Kuechly with another concussion? Call me soft, but if I was him Id start planning for life after football. He's been severely hampered in the past bc of head injuries...
TheMalcolmConnection 10-13-2017, 10:31 AM Not saying the Eagles aren't vastly improved, but like EVERY fumble/INT bounced right into their hands. Law of averages says that can't keep happening.

It’s not soft at all, the more we learn about the long term impact of concussions shit is downright scary.
skinsfan69 10-13-2017, 10:37 AM Wentz has turned out to be a real playmaker at Qb. Plus they have a very good d-line. Eagles are legit.
mredskins 10-13-2017, 12:04 PM My 9 year old son got invited to Ravens vs. Steelers last weekend. I would not let him go, especially without me. He probably won't go to a game until much later.
Its because of crap like this:
Ugly fan violence at Panthers game caught on video – ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/10/13/ugly-fan-violence-at-panthers-game-caught-on-video/)
I have ZERO interest in attending a game anymore, been like that for awhile. Cost, view, overall experience, shit like above, parking, etc....no freaking thanks.
