Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

I'm amazed every week with the performance of the defense. Shanahan should have fired Haslet long ago. And why did Shanahan want a 34 defense in the first place?

[quote=JLee9718;1050977]I think the QB question should be resolved by competition, not telling any new HC that RGIII is the franchise QB.[/quote]

It would be an easy competition seeing as Cousins is only average. Competition will be over after mini camp.

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

I couldn't take another year of the Shanahans, especially Kyle and his weird play-calling.

[quote=BaltimoreSkins;1050900]I don't know maybe I have selective memory or maybe because I haven't watched every game this year, but that 2009 team was one of the worst performing and most poorly managed teams I remember. Zorn had almost no support from the players and it still seems like many still support(ed) Shanny before the cowboys game.[/quote]This is a 3-12 team. There are a lot of players in that locker room that need coaching stability in order to have a job next year.

Coaching turnover means player turnover. When you lose three quarters of your games, it's pretty easy to conclude that new players and new coaches are needed. It's a bit harder for those players and coaches to make that same conclusion.

Speaking of Griffin, those of you who saw the Ravens game yesterday may have noticed that Flacco was wearing a knee brace and he was throwing the ball too high to his receivers - just like Griffin did while wearing his own knee brace.

I believe that we'll see a much better version of RGIII when he is completely recovered from his knee injury, can shed the knee brace, and has a full off-season of working on his mechanics and his reads.

Plus, with Art Briles as his new HC, RGIII will be completely familiar with the offense.

I don't think there's any question that RG3 was not prepared to play this season. This injury takes quite some time to recover from, unless you're Adrian Peterson. I believe we'll see a stronger RG3 both physically and mentally next year. I feel his rookie season had little in the way of adversary and that he will be stronger for what he went through this season. I think sitting him down will ensure he gets a full offseason and taught him a valuable lesson in the importance of performing up to expectations.

Hell no to Briles

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

[quote=punch it in;1050975]Well if you are saying that our defense is not more of a priority than a complimentary wr to Garcon I think i am happy you are not our GM. Lol. I agree that we need one, but it is not our top priority.[/quote]
Not saying it is more of a priority but it's equally a priority. Other than Garcon we've got nothing NFL worthy at that position.

Well we have Reed who is a hell of a receiver and like Matty said Robinson looks better. Plus Im still not giving up on Hank though most have. Ive seen this same offense light it up - the defense I have seen eff up game after game minus a few flashes of what resembles a real NFL unit.

The same Reed missing 7 weeks for a concussion? That's a basket I don't want to put all my eggs in.

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

We have a fantastic receive out of the backfield hardly gets work in Helu Jr. He should be putting up numbers like Vareen in NE. Helu still holds the Skins record for most catches in a game I believe. Our scheme/play-calling absolutely sucks at maximizing the talent on this roster.

I hope more than ever that Reed can come back 100% because I think he's gonna be a star, but he's a TE. Hankerson hasn't shown that he can be a threat to defenses, he's a #4 WR, Robinson is a #4 at best also.

Don't get me wrong, the defense is in need of major repair but we still have the weakest WR group in the division by far (assuming a healthy Nicks and Cruz in NY) and in a passing league, we need to address this long existing issue.

I do think we'll see a better Griff too but the knee brace does not make a QB throw high. Both Manning and Brady wear one.

There is zero chance art broyles comes here. RGIII is very concerned about his image now. He knows it would look like he was a diva who threw out his old coach to bring in a coach of his chosing.

Plus Almo to open up the passing game. I agree Goat , and throw in a swiss cheese oline and it dont matter how many weapons we have. Solid pass protection coupled with solid scheme/playcalling can do wonders for the guys already in the skill positions on this team.

Very true I still think 2009 was worse. Unlike then I see a potential franchise player at the most important position, as well as youth at wr and rb. Not to mention no albatross contracts that we are currently regretting.

I see nine or ten players I would like to have back, and zero coaches I would like to have back. I still pin my hopes on RG-3 but I have my doubts now as opposed to last year. All things considered this is a lifelong low as a Skins fan, and thats 36 years of rooting for them. Not sure it gets worse than this imo.

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

I still don't understand how people label RG3 a diva? He's required to talk to the Media. He says what the PR tells him to say 95% of the time.

I count ten players who I would like to have back on IR alone. There are about 30 players total that I'd like to keep. Some are starters, some are reserves, and a few are developing players. We'll keep more than that because it's just not realistic to think that we can fill 23 roster spots in one off-season.

C'mon my man, you can do better than 10 players.

RG
Morris
Helu
Young
Trent
Garçon
Davis
Reed

All legit starters on offense. Give Hankerson another chance in a new offense (he holds most of the records at the U, there's talent there).

Kerrigan
Cofield
Jenkins
Rak
Riley
Jackson
Amerson
Hall
Merriweather or Jackson at safety.

I got to 17 or 18 pretty easy. Those are legit starters. We need to add a few starters and depth, and more depth.

But there's a lot to work with here.

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

It seems as if they're never going to reinstate Jackson and Meriweather is f'ing garbage.

Amerson is promising in the current system, but I wouldn't be shocked if we get a new defensive scheme and he never becomes a major contributor for us.

Re: Boyz vs. Skins Post-Game Dread
 

Some of that top third is going to go play elsewhere just because of new coaches decision. Just because we have 17 NFL caliber players on a 53 man roster doesn't mean all 17 will or should be back. There's give or take 10 guys who will be big contributors for this team in the future acquired under four years of Shanahan.

That was the bitter me, of course there are more than ten but there are truely about ten that i have complete faith in. I realize no team has studs from top to bottom. I was really just venting about this horrible season.
