Redskins vs. Bengals Post Game Reaction

Money always talks and the players who the redskins gave the money to aren't that good.

...and neither were the guys they let go. Their performance proved it during their years here. Had they gave these guys contracts and they shitted it up like normal, you'd been bitching and complaining about Mike giving these bums a contract.

I'm not at home ATM but can one of you get griffins stats through three games for me? And our offensive ranks?

I didn't say the team hasn't gotten sacks I'm saying rak And rk

Those two were THE ONLY ONES generating hurries or sacks!

That is because holding calls aren't being made.

Not true, Bowen And carriker have done nice jobs as well. And today Riley And Jackson.

The issue is that we're left arguing between the virtues of letting the best players on the roster go vs. giving them the worst contacts ever to stay. Because its apparently too much to expect mike shanahan to make the best personnel decision.

If those two clowns were our "best" we had on our defense, it kinda tells you how pathetic the talent level really was on this team. (both sides)

Given the circumstances at the time the decisions had to be made Shanahan absolutely made the right call.
It's easy to second guess down the road when you know the outcome.

Is anyone else worried about Orakpo's future here? Or is that just me?

Worried, in what way?

[tryfuhl]

Really disappointed that our pass rush has been so weak.. really exposes us in the secondary when we're playing light coverage. We've gone against some pretty weak O-lines and just haven't disrupted the play enough.

When the day is done this franchise is hard to love. I hate to say snake bitten but damn it sure feels like it.
