I guess he’s Mr. Glass for a reason.

Re: Haskins in his own words

The more I think about it, the more I realize last season was so depressing it may very well have tainted our perception of Haskins progress.

I remember thinking "yeah at the end of the season he's shown encouraging signs of improvement".

But I went back and watched the All 22 version of all offensive snaps of Giants @ Skins Week 16 until he got injured... And I don't think that's an accurate statement anymore. I think he tremendously improved. He was really really good in that game. I had a really hard time finding any bad plays in there. And he wasn't not seeing wide open receivers either. Good vision, good mobility, good accuracy.

Just look at these 2 plays and tell me what you think.
I really get the feeling we should be more enthusiastic about Haskins' last few games, but our enthusiasm got flushed away with a 3-13 season.

Re: Haskins in his own words

I don't need any convincing, Frenchy. I'm on record here saying that Haskins will take big steps forward this coming season and that he will be a very good starting QB for the Redskins. I understand the skepticism of some fans but I think I know the "IT" factor when I see "IT" and I believe he has "IT".

Re: Haskins in his own words

He was balling out at the end of the season and had the fans excited. Then the offseason came around and people seem to have forgot what happened and are back to questioning him. I don't get it but oh well.

Honestly I watched the tape to convince myself in the first place, last season was so depressing I don't remember valuing his progress how it deserved.

Re: Haskins in his own words

Another point about Haskins is that he was hampered by a sprained ankle for nearly all the games he played in. He's more mobile than he was able to show. Whenever he was able, he was mobile in the right way: avoiding the rush, keeping his eyes downfield with the idea of throwing and running when required.

Whatever areas he needs to improve in can be taught and practiced. His arm, his feel for the game, his desire to learn and get better, his toughness, his willingness to lead, his ambition to be a great player and his strong desire to win were already his when he arrived here.

I encourage everyone here to watch the videos of his leading OSU to big comeback wins against Michigan and Maryland and you'll see what he's all about.

I echo this. I was encouraged and remain so.

Those clips were against the Giants defense. And his hot streak at the end of the season came against bottom half defenses mostly. Worth noting.

At the same time his supporting cast aside from Terry was not great, either.

Not bad for a rookie and I am very intrigued about 2020 with Dwayne.

That second play...look at the route combination with the pick. That’s top notch play design.

McLaurin executed it perfectly. Got right to his spot and F'd up the CB just enough.

Re: Haskins in his own words

I remember watching the scramble TD, against the Giants, with my brother (first gif posted above).

I told my bro, “Cousins probably takes a sack there while RG3 tucks the ball to run and gets blown up at the 3 yard line.”

I love Haskins pocket awareness and ability to keep his eyes down field, among other things.

Yop, to this point, the tape the week before against the Eagles is less impressive... But he was under constant pressure, his receivers dropped some balls... He also missed some throws and didn't see open receivers at times.

There still was quite a lot of good, and a bit of really good :
