Re: WFT Wild Card Pre-Game Thread

If Taylor gets to play, many of the off-season discussions could possibly change dramatically. Let's say he stinks up the joint, Smith would have equally earned the L just with more shallow cuts. If he holds his own, but loses to the goat, then we have our backup, at worst. But imagine the story if he plays hard and well and gives us a chance to win. Draft discussions change significantly, as Heinicke has very little tread worn off the tires, and investments can be made at OL and LB that are needed. I love an underdog story, and as an ODU and WFT fan, am damned thrilled that the best QB in FCS could possibly lead my Redskins to a playoff win. This is fun stuff, and house money. I hope RIverboat Ron is ambitious in his game aspirations.

Interesting article and breakdown on him:

I sincerely doubt that, Mrs. Heinicke.

Yeah, I am a bit of a homer when it comes to Heinicke, and admit it. As a guy that saw the kid start and excel for four years at ODU, this is a helluva lot of fun.

However, care to make this discussion more interesting? If Heinicke plays a quarter or more, I'd wager that his QB rating is 80 or higher, and my wager, gentlemanly, of course, I'll change my screen name to your "Mrs. Heinicke" if he fails to produce. However, if I am correct and the kid plays well, what are you willing to wager, gentlemanly, of course?

We haven't seen what Charles, AGG, Ismael, Harmon, can do after a full camp. We've seen flashes from Martin, Hudson, Smith-Williams, I still think Love will pan out. Just need that elusive QB.
