Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
Schedule is easy but we have a backup QB so nothing is easy
|
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
And how many games have the Redskins lost under Gruden we figured would be wins?
|
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
So I need to see Colt play this week before make any type of assumptions.
If he comes out and shits the bed again...just burn down the rest of the season |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
We have it easiest because we played a lot of the tougher games early and came out 6-3. That said, and agreeing with Buffalo Bob, no game is easy with Gruden as the head coach.

Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
We're not making the playoffs. We are trending downward.

lost 3 of 4. MNF ? I shared the stats the other day. Gruden shits the bed in Primetime. We ain't beating Philly Monday folks and if we do that just shows how bad they are this yr. Still I'm taking Wentz over Bum Mccoy any-day. |

I think Wentz is taking a while to get his groove back. If anyone thinks McCoy is more than an average back up they are somewhere between overly optimistic and delusional. There are plenty of teams were McCoy would be 3rd string. Monday Night's opponent is one of them. |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
Man those people who said Colt could win just like Alex sure have gone quiet eh
That said I do still have some faith in Colt with a week of reps under his belt facing a horrible Philly secondary, especially with Thompson likely coming back Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

And they are like an emotional roller coaster. I never seen people pick a team to loose and when they loose they freak out. LOL |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
Dallas gets stomped tonight and we beat Philly Monday night. Our D comes up big.

He should have had 5 ints last week so it can't get much worse than that right?? |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
The Bears started their backup on the road with no reps with the first team just like we did and he went 27-37 for 230 yards and 2 tds. No INT's. Yeah Dallas is better than DET but Colt was mostly awful in that game. The Bears are also sticking with Daniel this week rather than rushing Mitch back.
NFL.COM Gave us a 19% chance of making the playoffs, with the 2nd easiest schedule. The 19% is 30 plus % lower than the other 6-5 teams.... |

Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
If Smith were still playing our record would be 6-5. We aren't going anywhere w/ either guy. I just can't stand the way Smith plays. At least Colt tries to get the WR's the ball. Reid and Nagy had to basically force a pro NFL QB to push the ball downfield to the wr's. Once Mahomes was ready they called the suckers that they knew would give them a starter and a draft pick. Let's at least see how Colt does w/ some practices under his belt. I think he'll play better.
|
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
I love how Andy Reid has crippled this franchise twice (McNabb/Smith).

To be fair , 3 or 4 teams called about Smith, we just offered the most. I agree on Mahomes, he's obviously the best choice. We on the other hand are now looking for a QB in 2019... Life of a skins fan folks |

One week of practice. And he is coming into the fold at crunch time. No pressure. Lol. But yeah if he shits the bed/ isn’t ready yet - than it is probably lights out on 2018. This game is that big, and if he gets in a groove eventually it might be too little too late. |

True dat about Gruden, also do not forget we are on the road for 3 of these crucial 5. Though maybe that isn’t so bad? |

The Eagles. Jaguars, Titans all have losing records....and all three of those teams have played poorly at home this year. |

Oh don’t get me wrong it is not like we have to go to Foxboro. But road games are always tougher. |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
We're gonna lose because Jay Gruden's primetime record is dogshit. Don't have the time to look it up but it's dogshit. And the average points margin in defeat is dogshit too.

Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
Dallas has such a cake schedule left, I don't see them losing more than 1 more game

This is what I don't understand and it's gone back to the days of Shanny too. How is a team SO shitty under the lights?! :( If this was any other time vs. prime-time I would have said we surprise everyone and win easily. I think we have another butthole puckerer of a game, but I think we win a close one. 21-17. Eagles just don't have "the guy" on offense to scare me. Ertz is as close as it gets and if we scheme around shutting him down, I think we can shut down their offense. |

I don't know what the Monday Night record is during Joe Gibbs' first tenure, but it seems as if the Redskins, simply, aren't a great team under the lights. Still, I get excited at the thought of them playing in prime time. That usually goes away after the first quarter though. |
Re: Which borderline team has the easiest path to the NFL playoffs?
Not that I'm making this bet but I saw some sportsbooks putting the redskins at +25000 to win the super bowl after the cowboys/saints game....I'm just saying, those are good odds.
I now see +15000. I don't know how this weekend helped or if the payout just moved due to being absurd. |

Three God awful games in a row, two resulted in losses. This team was trending down with Alex at the helm. He, nor Colt, nor Sanchez is the answer. Not even close |
