Time for an "OCCUPY LANDOVER" Movement

Hail to the Redskins · 11-20-2011, 04:46 PM

Ok guys...

I think it's finally time for a protest.

NO ONE should spend hard-earned money to watch THIS franchise.

Highest priced tickets in the league for what??? To watch QBs that wouldn't start for any other team in the league.. to watch a running back (Torain) who wouldn't play for any other team, run for -1 yards every stretch run play (while we have a young, exciting rookie watching from the bench)... a defense that is HORRIBLE when you need them most... and a kicker that you will NEVER be able to count on.

It's time to DO something! Who's with me!!??!?! lol

Don't forget your sandals and your bong.

How 'bout you go occupy something other than a keyboard for a while...

Yeah, we are 3-7 but I would still argue that this franchise is headed in the right direction.

what cha gonna do.This team must be cursed.Since Snyder bought this team it seems that way.I bet weve set records for futility since Snyder bought the team.
About Torain,thats on Shanasucks,why he keeps going back to him is just bad coaching.Im so sick of that dude.
Your exactly right on Gano,just when u think hes turned the corner he takes a step back
Shanasucks ought to know better then to try and ice the kicker,once again another bad coaching descision.Every kicker in the league will tell you they hope you call timeout.Cowboys were hurrying and the clock looked like it hit zero to me,I cant do anything but shake my head

I'm prone to agree. It also boggles my mind how people wanna bitch about the kicker when there are far more pressing positions to worry about.

SouperMeister · 11-20-2011, 05:12 PM

Dude, you're picking the wrong loss to start a movement. The team showed as much heart as they have all year. Grossman played great. The receivers made plays. There were a lot of positives for the first time in a month. Count me out of your "occupation".

Because he blew the game!!
Yes we have other needs namely a qb,but your underestimating how important a good kicker is,which gano is not.Ive been a Gano supporter,but I cant do it anymore.Im not saying cut him now,but we need another kicker next yr.
Dallas kicker has made 23 in a row,has Gano ever made more then 2 in a row?

I refuse to solely blame a kicker for missing a 52 yard FG. Get in better field position so you don't have to put the game on your already inconsistent kicker.

DynamiteRave · 11-20-2011, 05:21 PM

You've also failed to mention that Dallas' kicker has only made 1 kick of 50+ yards.

SFREDSKIN · 11-20-2011, 05:21 PM

This all will be forgotten next year when we draft our franchise QB of the future.

He also hasn't missed since week 2. Longest streak in the NFL, and he's a rookie no less. I've been on Gano's side for a long time, but I'm not any more. He just misses too much. But the loss isn't squarely on him.

See. That's what I'm saying Scud. I'm not a Gano sympathizer. The guy is totally inconsistent and I won't be sad to see him go. But there were other low points of this game and where this game could've been incredibly different. But people like to point out the obvious and not dig a bit deeper.

Bleh. I'm over it.

How come so few people are able to recognize this?

I find it awfully hard to blame the kicker when as a team we've played like utter crap for weeks now.

Yeah, but how many kicks has gano missed inside 40? More than any in the NFL. I can't understand how people keep making excuses for this guy. He missed a 40 yarder that in reality would have won the game today. He missed a ton of kicks last year, missed a ton of kicks this year. He needs to be released. It makes no sense. He is the worst in the league....I could come in and kick and I he would be no better than me. think about that for minute. the worst kicker in the NFL. WE can't do better than that??
