    2026 NFL Draft Impressions / Changes

    We used to do this thread elsewhere, but it's always interesting. Basically, look at who we drafted and who that was available, you would have drafted instead. 1.7 - Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State Thoughts on this pick: I really wanted offensive help here, with my two targets being Jeremiyah...

    Next Day Thread: Patriots Pre-Season

    Short and simple… We had 30 players not dress for this one… and boy was that evident. The good: Defense: Iggy and Amos looked pretty solid. Stayed stride for stride with receivers, Iggy tackled well and was aggressive. Newton and Ferrell held their own on the defensive line. Reaves flies...

    2025 Next Day Thread: The Season in Review

    Welcome to the award and analysis part of the Next Day Thread. It's been an... interesting season. The Commanders are permanent, much to the chagrin of many who had help hope that the Redskin name would come back. ES shut down after 20+ years of service unceremoniously, the team that plays in...

    Next Day Thread: You Must Be Lion

    The 1991 Football Season. That was the last time the Washington Football Team played in the NFC Championship Game. I was 7 years old. Since then the Washington Football Team hasn't made it back, have only been in the playoffs six times and posted a 212-299 record (this may be off, I haven't...

    Next Day Thread: Pewing the Pewter Pirates

    Well, the thread title might be my worst one yet, so obviously I'm proud of it. Let's start with the coaching. Dan Quinn, consistently going for it in field goal range was controversial. Take the points, right? Just take the points! Except... no. This team got to where it was because we took...

    Next Day Thread: 12-5.

    This is usually the end of the season... In fact, since these Next Day Threads started in their current iteration, we have yet to have fielded a playoff team. So I am left with questions... Do I continue studs and duds into post season? Do I award the players with their "awards" just for the...

    Next Day Thread: Dirty Work, Dirty Bird

    It was a Sunday Night and all through the house, not a creature was stirring not even a... ya, you get the idea. We played on Sunday Night Football. Night games have been embossed in any Washington fan's DNA as being a murky water that one shouldn't traverse without adequate safety equipment...

    Next Day Thread: Merry Christmas Ya Philthy Animals

    Oh man... it's Monday. What could possibly be good about things? Mondays are for returning to work and licking wounds September through January. What's that? I don't have to work today? That's great. But I still need to lick my wounds, don't I? Wait, no? We beat Philadelphia? Who could have...

    Next Day Thread: That Saint Pretty

    Going into this game, I had one concern: Alvin Kamara. Their offense, especially with Carr out, is pedestrian for the most part otherwise. So naturally, if you would have told me Kamara had five rushes for twelve yards and four receptions for 58 yards (9 touches, 60 yards) I'd have thought we...

    Next Day Thread: Sinking the Titans

    Well, it's the second week of being strong armed into doing this... Totally at my own discretion, of course. No one is making me do this... Not a soul. Nope. No one. I'm kidding. I am a willing participant in this endeavor. Anyways, I saw there was a football game yesterday. Last week, there...

    Next Day Thread: What Was That? (Dallas Edition)

    Well, I got asked to do this... So I figure I can do these for at least the remainder of this season. No commitment for longer than that! First off, let's start with our passing game. I am not down on Jayden Daniels yet. I think there were moments where he looked a bit off but I think he played...

    Chalk Talk: The Outside Zone AKA The Stretch

    Outside Zone (Or, “Stretch”) The reason why the outside zone is popular is dependant on who you ask. The outside zone is a play that compliments the inside zone quite well. When you run inside zone successfully, it tightens defenses and the stretch play is a perfect compliment as it gets you to...

    Why Keep Him In?

    Those of you that were in chat with me yesterday know that the moment Griffin started hobbling, I was all aboard the "get Kirk in" bandwagon. We went up 14-0 and were rolling, but Griffin came up limping. The time to pull him would have been right there. At the very least for a series to see if...

    Chalk Talk: Dissecting the Duck, Skins Tie Ins (GRANTLAND Article + Discussion)

    Going to try something different here. I'm going to utilize an article from Grantland on the Chip Kelly "Duck" offense, dissect it and apply it to what we currently have going on. The article in Grantland is great, so I highly suggest checking it out here...

    OC Contract Expiring, What Next?

    The way I understand it, after this coming season Kyle Shanahan's contract with the Washington Redskins as offensive coordinator is going to expire. Couple that with the news that tshile posted from the Washington Post that Kyle may be in contention for the Eagles job and you have yourself...

    Chalk Talk Discussion: The Fragile Ecosystem that is a NFL Franchise

    In life, you can throw teams together to perform minute tasks, such as cleaning up friend's yard, jump starting a vehicle, going door to door to sell cookies. You can even throw together a group of kids to play a game of pickup football in the backyard with relative ease. However, running a...

    Chalk Talk Discussion: The Power Lies with the Head Coach...but Should it?

    ***Again, I posted this at the other site as well. But again, I like the conversation that generates in both places. It's so different! PS: I'm going to stop posting this disclaimer soon*** There is a common ground that I'm seeing amongst the Redskins faithful... It's that the head coach...

    Chalk Talk Discussion - BPA vs. Need

    ***NOTE I posted this over there, too. But I always enjoy the different style of conversation over here. It's generally more toned down and "intimate" here, versus a town hall kind of feel over there. So I'm posting it here as well. :)*** We have this conversation fairly often around here, but...

    Moving Forward, Properly, with the Defense

    Our defense has been horrendously poor thus far, and if things don't shape up it could, unbelievably, get worse. As of right now, halfway through the year we're on pace to allow: 5,028 passing yards (record: 4796 2011 Green Bay Packers) 6,502 total yards (record: 6793 1981 Baltomore Colts) 38...

    KDT: 'Skins Sign New Kicker/Specialty Coach

    ASHBURN, Va. - As Kai Forbath, former UCLA kicker, took the field at Redskin Park Thursday there was an eerie feeling that loomed. The fourteenth kicker signed by the club in the last thirteen years was surrounded by the same aura as the rest of the lot. It was a feeling of hope, or perhaps...
