Re: The D thread

Manusky is a very good aggressive DC, injuries have hampered the D this year, yet it is competitive. Yes, they fucked up a few times like missed tackles on the critical 2 point conversion and not having enough players-on that side to stop the play.

I would like to see Hood, Hall replaced in the offseason, keep Murphy and put him in the DL, draft another S, ILB, NT and pass rusher to replace Galette. A Murphy, Ionnadis, Allen, Lanier line sure would be nice. Need to keep Brown no matter what and draft a replacement for Foster unless we can keep him (will be tough). Breeland is gone next year.

I agree 100%. It only took 2 weeks for Manusky to go from the penthouse to the outhouse. Its impossible to fairly evaluate anyone on this injury filled season.

Re: The D thread

I think Manusky has been decent as a coordinator, but he needs to find out why the last 2-3 minutes in the halves have been terrible. Needs to fix it.


But Ill continue to say this...not hiring Wade Phillips was a huge mistake and Its an embarrassing when Jim Schwartz refuses to take a meeting with your team because the Front office of Dan and Bruce is an absolute fucking joke. So remember, Dan and Bruce operation cost us an opportunity there.

People keep talking about Wentz, but Schwartz as the d-coordinator is the real reason why Philly is excelling this year. But it takes a lil bit of football acumen to understand that fact.

How did Wade Phillips D do against Minnesota? Do they have as many injuries? Our D has fucked up, no doubt. Norman hasn't played well 2 weeks in a row, Hall filling in sucks. We miss Foster badly.

Wade has done a fine job with both Denver and now the Rams.

We got smoked by the Vikings defensively...Rams kept it competitive.

Minnesota defense...like I and others talked about before we played them...is real man shit, physical. They are ELITE.

Then maybe we should hire Minnesota’s DC!! JK

My point is, give Manusky a chance I think he has done a fine job. Like I said Norman hasn’t played well the last 2 weeks, due to ILB injuries our lack of depth is showing, Brown is playing hurt and is not as fast.

I really wanted Wade, but I don't think he's been as good this year as in the past, and I'm over that non-hire. Schwartz is a great DC, but he's not the kind the Skins would nearly ever hire, so again, that's really a non-factor.

Manusky and Gruden need to spend time over pizza looking at every end of half and end of game film from our games, then go and look at those of the coaches who are famous for their time management.

Somehow these two have to get it straightened out if the Skins want to compete this year or next.

Looking at stats just now, the yardage seems to bear that out, but the points against don't. And with our talent maybe I would still want him, he probably would have gotten more out of ours I guess.

On Schwarz, 1- he's a dirty defensive coach. The last one of those we had was Williams, and I don't think we go that way again ever. 2nd, he's linked to Haynesworth, and given DS' history with AH, I doubt he would bring him in.

Re: The D thread

Philadelphia has assembled a hell of a defense, awesome LB’s, DT’s, signing Jernigan, trading for Darby and drafting Barnett were brilliant moves by their front office.

a Non-factor? FFS

For god sakes...do we understand that Wade Phillips won Denver the superbowl? Do we understand it wasn't Peyton Manning or that offense that won through the playoffs? Wade Phillips won the superbowl period. Ask the players on that team.

And Jim Schwartz has Philly as the top team in the NFC and look like superbowl contenders? Wentz without that defense would look like Dak this year.


why in the fuck doesn't this matter?

Yeah, I have to ask the same thing. Wade or Schwartz would've been a heck of a hire.

Schwartz refused to talked to us when we asked because he knew our front office and the people running our Org- Dan and Bruce- were complete clowns. These two idiots have cost this team over and over.
