The Caps simply don't matter to Washington nearly as much as the Redskibs do. Doesn't matter how many SAT words you use, you can't tell Skins fans to be patient while we rebuild. I don't believe for a seco d most fans would have the maturity to accept that

It's hard to "Rebuild" when we hear that shit every season.

Also notice the difference between a playoff team and a bad team,The Bucs K Barth made every kick today and we missed 2 (actually 3)

Re: Redskins vs Bucs GameDay Thread

When we were behind at the end of the game by a touchdown, my husband said we'll drive down the field and score a touchdown but Gano will miss the extra point. I laughed out loud at such a silly premise. Well it wasn't his fault but Gano never even had a chance to make the extra point and we lost....again. Over and over, each and every week, we find another way to lose. And every week, I feel depressed. When will we ever be good again?

I'm all for rebuilding and I think most fans would understand a rebuild.....but what kills me is that you have a Team President / HC that is getting, what $ 7M / yr. and there doesn't appear to be a long term plan.

The moves made this off-season (McNabb, J. Brown) appear to be "win now" moves....yet if you are in a "win now" mode why do you completely disrupt a defense that has good young talent along the most important unit, the DL. The change to the 3-4, is a 2-3 year project in acquiring the correct personnel. And with it being a copycat league and the 3-4 the latest fad, the "tweener" LB/DEs and NTs are going to be hard to come by. Yet, we have on the roster a superstar RDE, arguably the best 1 tech DT in the game, a solid run stopping LDE (Daniels) and a very good pass rushing LDE (Jarmon). Between the rest of the DL we have solid 3 techs and backups for a 4-3.

On the OL, no move was made at C and Rabach is clearly done. Either KL or Monty should be starting at C. I find it hard to believe Dock just went from being solid to stinking up the joint and benched, and Heyer while he struggles in space appeared to do well at RG against the Titans, why not see if he makes a transition to G.

You know much beter than I what goes on in the FO, but from the Lomabardi article and other bits and pieces I've seen, we need to expand/improve our scouting and have MS pay the hell attention to them instead of thinking he's the smartest guy in the room.

Well, a prime example from this year is that Baltimore really got deep with quality NTs when they drafted Cody. Now they can resign Ngata and have two starting caliber NTs on their roster if they want it that way.
