"and I watched RGIII last night he is awesome but they got other great players like D. Hall; the guy on TV could not stop talking about him."

John Madden did the same thing. Ron Jaworski did the same thing. The huge majority of those guys do that.

Which leads me too brace yourself for the band wagoners; good after the 2004 WS everyone and their mother was a Red Sox fan. I was like where have this people been?

I don't understand your negative attitude toward bandwagon fans. We need them. It's only going to help the Skins to have a home stadium filled with loud, crazy fans and to have more support throughout the community. It helps the team to build momentum. Plus it's more fun.

We are not better than the bandwagon folks. We just a have a higher threshold for emotional pain and disappointment than they do. Everybody loves a winner but few people can hang in there for decades of losing.

I cant stand Gruden. He makes MNF almost unwatchable.

I took it as this is what he's paid to do, as in he better make that play for the money he's being paid

lol true. But I think like we've talked about before, Gruden just talks up everybody in a positive way, often too much. I just thought that was funny.


In terms of the playcall post, come'on man. Last night was nothing but good design and good calls. Cant be perfect everytime, and give the giants defense a little credit, there not scrubs along the d-line. Had no problem last night.

I did. Gruden gushes about everyone, but that was over the top. I also almost thought i saw griffin contain a laugh himself when Gruden put Hall in the same category as guys like Fletcher in the pre-game interview. Hall is an occasional playmaker, but he's about the furthest thing from a shutdown corner i can imagine.

The way Baltimore has played the last two weeks it is definitely a winnable game.

Looks like Suggs might be out, which makes the Ravens' defense look very ordinary. Flacco has struggled this year as well. I think the Redskins take them out, but I won't think about that game (much) until tomorrow, lol!

We are all amazed at how RG3 is playing like a veteran and I'd like to give major props to Alfred Morris for doing the same. How many rookies come back from a fumble and pretty much win the game with those runs towards the end. I think it is safe to say that we are set at QB and RB for the future.

I saw a stat that he made 58 yards after the fumble. Again, CRed and I both commented on how, after the fumble, he really seemed intent on making up for it.

Also, I think it is in Grazino's column somewhere, Morris has somthing like 450 yards in 48 carries against NFC East opponents or about a 9 yds/carry average. Amazing. The man is a beast.

Griffin, Morris, Garcon. Young and ready to run.

Whatever happens as far as the playoffs, one things for sure, Kyle's stock has jumped big time.

A month or two ago, i think Smoot said/implied there was mutual interest to varying degrees with several teams and it was all but garaunteed he'd be somewhere else next year. I really hope there's some way we can keep him. He and RGIII are obviously working well together and i think switching offensive coordinators would only stunt the offense. I can't imagine someone else coming in and doing as good a job as Kyle.

I guess it really depends on how long Mike plans to coach. If we really just wants to coach out the rest of his contract, then i could see snyder/allen convincing Kyle to stay if they promised making him the HC when his dad retires. If Mike has no intention of retiring anytime soon, then Kyle is gone... and i'm worried he'd go to Philly or Dallas.

Kyle has been and will continue to be in hot demand until he makes a decision. I hope he decides to stay here
