Don't you think we are overreacting just a bit??

Being that their pass rush was a major component of their team you'd see how that was detriment. Also, if you witnessed their play at the end of the game you'd realize that Eli was wholesaling free footballs to Redskin defenders. The Giants are going to almost be as bad as we are this year. That's what magnifies this loss so much.

The comparison was not wins and losses or point total but between the level of competition that was put forth by those two teams with similar coaching changes and inexperience at QB.

Do I have to watch all the games for you??? Catch me next week at this time and I'll hand out your opinion on next weeks loss.

Since you want to be a sarcastic SOB, then I'll lay it out for you. I watch EVERY GAME. Haven't missed one since before the invention of the NFL Sunday Ticket.
1- if their pass rush sucked so bad, why were they in our backfield causing trouble so much?
2- Never once said they were a super bowl contender this year, but said they were the super bowl champs...is that a lie? They were riding on some emotion due to their ceremony...but you apparently missed that. There was also an implication that the Giants are better than the Lions, but you missed that as well.
3- You note the fact that Eli was not really on...then I would THINK you would have noticed the 2, possibly 3 interceptions that we SHOULD have had if you were watching.
Which one out of those three are Jason Campbell problems????? Yeah, I don't think it's me that missed the game. Why don't you do us all a favor and be a fan of some other team, cause your negativity, and ignorance is something some other team should have to deal with. We Skins fans are too classy to be associated with the likes of you.

I suggest you change your tune, or no one will respect a word you say.

For as much as we can disagree with politics, we seem to have very similar views when it comes to the Skins! You are dead on here.

Here we go with guys being classier than me...good job, you beat me. You're classier than me. Damn...I really wanted to outclass you but to no avail...Shucks

Tell you what...why don't you take your Frank Sinatra albums and your class and stop trying to reprimand me for something as small as an opinion. This is my subtle opinion after their performance and I'm talking with others about it in a free forum. If you disagree than fine that's what this place is about.

What I don't get is why you're up my ass with your BS. Share your weak ass opinion and get it over with. Stop thinking what you're typing is going across the desk of Daniel Snyder himself.


You're not that important so speaking collectively on the behalf of all Skins fans is not something that you've been appointed to. I have every bit of the respect to share my perspective as you.

Wait, how did you know I had Frank Sinatra cds?

There's too much angst in Redskins land. If the Skins continue to struggle, I think I may quit bothering with forums all together. My threshold for ignorant and impatient fan opinions is reaching its max.

It's not an overreaction. Not in the slightest. I do find myself getting bored reading the same redundant arguments day in and day out, but that's just me.

Me too. See you on here tomorrow, have a good night.

[Ruhskins]

Can we lock these negative overreactive threads? All what they are doing is...

[hooskins]

haha so I just wasted ten minutes of life reading the last two pages of this thread. Gave me a good laugh though.

2 weeks ago, it was a "wake up call" against the panthers, well no one woke up. Last week it was an eye opener, well someone fell asleep on the job. Everyone said "its preseason, wait until it really counts" well we saw they performed, when it really counted, and that is very disappointing.

I can understand an tolerate a loss, its the NFL it happens. But to have your team manhandled like they were in the 1st quarter is embarrassing. Our O-line looked over matched against a team that lost its 2 top defenders, our D line was non-existent, the corners and safeties looked like they had no clue what was going on until the 2nd half. And Campbell well, he was just horrible, there is going to be a learning curve (I am interested to see how Farve does this season, he is in a new system, will it take him 2 years to learn how to play the game he has played his whole life?)

Its hard to be too optimistic when you have one of the hardest schedules in the league, and you can't get positive yardage and a first down, until the very end of the first half!
Lastly I saw a total lack of urgency in Zorn’s play calling, running up the gut is going to wear down Portis, arguably our best player, and then we are in real trouble.

If the skins had merely lost I could have accepted, but they were dominated. There are a myriad of problems on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball, and our season does not get much easier.

Actually Favre himself said that the Jets system is very similar, it is just terminology which is different. Therefore Favre is not learning a whole new system and would make a poor comparison.

Cooley has been under-utilized even in his best season, and has shown the talent and athleticism to take over a game. He's a phenom in waiting IMO and I'm hoping Zorn and Co. can hash out a game-plan that let's Cooley be the dominant offensive force he should be.

You could be right about Westbrook over CP but isn't it impossible to say since Westbrook has been blessed in Philly w/ an offensive genius for an HC. CP has been far less fortunate in his path w/ the exception of his brief stint in Denver. More to the point, try thinking about what CP would have done in Westbrook's circumstances. I still think CP can take over a game and it's up to Zorn and the offensive line to give him the opportunity w/ play-calling and decent blocking.

On to Davis, if Zorn and the FO spent a 2nd round pick on the most prolific TE in college ball last year just so he could spend his time blocking we might as well call it a season. Dude showed awesome hands and almost WR like ability to run routes and make defenders miss. If we don't find a way to incorporate him in the offense as a downfield target it looks like the worst pick of the draft.

But here's where we agree - JC is the worst QB in the division (assuming Dono is back to his old self). That is a shitty reality for us, but I'm not ready to say JC is just a shitty QB. He's shown flashes and now he needs to settle into the WCO. Hopefully his experience in the WC from senior year @ Auburn will start to pay dividends. Hopefully he progresses quick enough that we won't have to right '08 off.

I agree that Campbell is the worst QB in the division - right now.

He is also the least experienced. He has also been jerked around between different offensive systems unlike any other QB in the division. McNabb, for example, has had the same system the entire millenium.

Give JC some time and I think you will see this situation change.

I gotta disagree about the Portis/Westbrook comments posted earlier. Westbrook is very good, don't get me wrong. But Portis can run with him, can catch with him, and is the best pass-blocking back in the league.

A true Skins fan will be patient right now rather than hatin' on the boys.

Sorry Matty i cant be like the other greenpeas and kiss you tush on this one. Campbell is horrible hands down. The play calling was even worse. Over-reacting no i don't think so. We should've won that game. Is it me or do we always have to wait until week 13 and play one loss and done football to show what we're made of?

Why does this thread have to be about kissing my ass?
