Haskins fined $40k and has captain status removed

[SFREDSKIN]

Here’s the sad little boys press conference. I still don’t believe he’s remorseful.

This team, on and off the field, needs to set an extremely high standard. When you've sank to the bottom of the barrel like us, you have to cut out all parts of the disease. Leave no remnants. Get on board or get the duck out.

Agree with you 100%. Ron should have been hard on him for this. And principles should go above winning. Ron just showed you how he really feels.

For all the talk about how he is this great, high-character coach who is strict and sets a standard, i haven't seen it here.

Ron lost me as a supporter with him basically giving Dwayne a slap on the wrist (again). So over him. I'm sorry he had cancer and I'm glad he is doing better, but he is just on his way to being another issue here in a long line of them.

It doesn't matter coach wise or player wise, because the real problem here is and will always be SNYDER. Until Snyder is gone, nothing is going to change here.

I respectfully disagree. It has been 100% apparent that the culture of the team (ON field) has changed for the better. This team was much like the Cowboys this year for the better part of the last decade look good for a few weeks and then sleepwalk through the rest of the season)

I don't believe any bullshit coming from the media, they make their money on it. I believe that he will cut Haskins during the offseason and IMO with this Defense they need a Trent Dilfer, a game manager that wont throw three INTS in a game. Alex Smith has proven to be that guy if he comes back and can stay healthy.

I just feel like Haskins should not have gotten away with it.

I'm so glad that there was no outbreak caused by what he did, but Rivera or anybody's life could have been endangered.

I realize that his final punishment will probably be getting cut next year, but it seems like he isn't getting punished RIGHT NOW, and that is the issue that I have.

Or, they handled it internally and professionally instead of in the media - something us fans have been wanting throughout the DS, VC and BA years.

Cutting him right now would have caused a larger media circus and distraction.

Meh. I did think Haskins was punished RIGHT NOW. The punishment may not have been to your liking, but he was punished, nonetheless.

Whether it's right, wrong, or one feels indifferent about it, we still may have to count on Haskins at some point this season, so keep him on the roster and keep him active on game days.

I surmise you wanted him released or suspended for a game or more. Frankly, we're not in that position to do neither one at the moment.

You may get your wish in the offseason.

We can debate whether his punishment was appropriate at the time, but I think it's undebatable that he's taking L's everywhere right now. I haven't seen one player so thoroughly ridiculed from fans to media in quite a while.

Up early and one of those schmucks hunched over my keyboard working this morning...listening to Sheehan show, Thom Loverro on and proposed something that I thought about yesterday but didn’t want to bring up

Did Dan interfere with Ron if the plan was to cut Haskins? I’d say probably not as I believe Ron has garnered even more control over football decisions with the team fighting for the division crown.

I just saw your post. I think it is completely possible.

Like i said, Rivera is supposed to be this high-quality, strict, high morale guy, and Haskins is essentially the antithesis of all of that. How can Dwayne get away with so much here in his short career unless Dan has over-ruled Ron on decisions about Haskins?

I don't think Dan overruled anything. If the team wasn't in the midst of a playoff run, and if there were another healthy QB on the roster that RR felt confident could go out and compete at a level the rest of the team deserves this week, MAYBE the punishment would have been more. I'm not so sure though.

I think the punishment for the crime (violating the Covid protocols) was in line with or more stiff than punishments other players have received for the same crime. It feels more egregious here because of the circumstances of the QB situation, and with RR's cancer battle this year, but I've looked around and can't find anyone who was fined more $$ or who lost their captain status. If what occurred happened in his hotel suite, and not a strip club as was reported in the beginning, then to me it's not as bad as what some other players have done this year. It was his second offense, but the more I marinate over this, I think the punishment was just about right.

Either way, I think it was a lose-lose situation for RR. I'm confident he did what he thought was in the best interest of Dwayne and the organization. We'll just have to see how he and the team responds this week. My belief is they are going to come out with an intensity we yet to see this year, put their foot on the Panther's necks, and keep it there for 60 minutes.

I know Ron will cut Haskins soon in the offseason

I think Both Kyle Allen and Alex will be on the roster, but I strongly think Ron and Scott want a young, mobile QB to develop.

I know he said he didn't go to a strip club but this is still hilarious.

[Burgold]

Get him outta here, right after the season, I never liked the fact that he wears No.7.

Would be nice to wrap up the NFC East title this weekend.
