We have a 35 year old rb and sit the 15th overall pick for scrubs.

I'm calling it now, the 49ers run for 200 next week.

Don't forget Zorn's 4-12 year in 2009 which led to the hiring of Allen....Gruden's rookie head coaching year too which had a 4-12 record....

It's the worst that I can remember as a fan and I'm 32, we would have lost yesterday if Fitz had played the whole game, dude was carving us

I’m not convinced Miami was tanking,if they were why pull Rosen and try and give your team a lift? Doesn’t make any sense,just because that last play was a dud doesn’t mean anything,It means the player had to be in on dropping the ball and I don’t believe he would do it.And yes If he caught the ball he would’ve been tackled, but sometimes you just have the right defense.If They were truly trying to lose the game they would’ve left Rosen in there.
But I do agree it will not be close next week

Cunningham with some strong blocking in the run game, a very welcome sight at the TE position. Saw him several times shoot past Scherff and get a seal on the LB / S that sprung Peterson for a few extra yards.

McLaurin very strong run blocking on the outside too. They tend to run it towards McLaurin's side. It's one of those hidden little reasons that make the difference between a good player and a very good player. McLaurin is the offensive MVP hands down.

I just wish we held onto Holtz. We down to the scrubs at TE and I’m bitter.

I think the front office is tanking, the players are not. Who knows about the coaches. That last play on the 2 point try was a suspect call in that situation. Fitz was carving up the Redskins while the Redskin offense was collecting 3 and outs. If you have all the momentum at the time why not kick the extra point and try to win in OT?

Manusky is still such a HUGE issue. Playing 20 yards off down a touchdown?! He is worse than Barry.

Players and coaches are going to play to win unless you are in your final season of a Snyder regime. Flores is a first year coach he can't afford to establish a culture of players not playing up to their ability.

I thought the same thing...more on the front office I believe than the players and coaches.

Also, anyone else here really glad the Skins didn't trade for Rosen like a lot of us thought we should?? He does not show much promise...I know he hasn't had a lot to work with, but I don't even see a glimpse of big upside.

Miami beat themselves. Let's face it. All they had to do was to kick that extra point and send it into overtime. Manusky is straight up trash for letting a tanking team come back from a 14 point deficit.

I'm happy with Terry McLaurin, though. I just hope he wants to stay in a couple of years when contract time rolls around.

[skinsfan69]

It's hard to put any positives in this game cause they're basically playing an elite college team and almost lost. Next week they will run for about 40 yards and give up 200.

The Redskin victory was not that costly. If you look at the tie breaking system the victory only dropped them to 3rd on the draft board, behind the two winless teams, and it is obvious Cincinnati is one of the best 0-6 teams in NFL history. 4 of their losses were by 6 points or less. They will start winning some games.
I still think the Redskins will get pick #2.

Had Fitz been in there the entire game Skins probably lose. This is a terrible football team.

I think the coaches in fairness to the players had to put in Fitz cause Rosen was not functionable. But I seriously question that last call. Apparently the player had never even practiced that play. Why not go right back after Norman? He's pure garbage. I think the players wanted to win. Not sure about the coaches. Had Miami won they'd probably have a pissed off owner.
