Skins all the way in 2020!!
I have Sunday Ticket and I am not really pissed about it. This is no where near as bad as spending $200 on Spurrier's second year or Zorn's second year.lol, i was just thinking i would be pissed if i was a ticket holder or dropped $200 plus for Sunday Ticket. I don't know if it even feels like preseason, more like a practice.![]()
Now see - that's what happens when you post one of these 'one-liner' threads before the outcome is determined. We weren't able to pull it out, but it was a great 2nd half Redskins performance overall.
I'll give you they hung in there. They played their normal game. My only conclusion is that this is going to be a painful 2-3 years more of rewickering the roster...including most especially QB. my guess is that the Shanahan's may be trying to figure out who is going to be the interim QB until we find a real one with long term skills/potential. it's frustrating having to watch.....as a fan I can't hang on to slim threads...you can see the weaknesses and what they imply for the long term.Al, it was a sloppy game, no doubt. I am pleased that they did not give up, kept fighting to end, even when the ST continually let them down in the first half. They played hard for Rex, they played hard for Shanahan. I am looking for the positives where I can find them, and both of those things are unequivocally positive.

No! This did not feel like a pre-season game! We don't play Dallas in pre-season!
We played a team that has more talent overall that had been poorly coached up until a few weeks ago, so looking at their record is just foolish.oh please...
1) we played a team with an even worse record.
2) this game showcased everything that is wrong with Grossman
- turnover machine
- not enough arm strength for the long passing game
- shades of Campbell....holds onto the ball too long in the pocket
- how many passes did he over-throw in the end-zone? ans: too many
- a QB who has been in the league this long yet throwing those idiot passes down the field when throwing the ball away? what the heck!!!!!
3) curious why the COMCAST guys aren't ripping the special teams..they were horrendous today.
4) but at least COMCAST/BM agree this was a wasted year from a rebuilding perspective.
that wasn't a professional game. it was laughable how bad both teams were this late in the season.
Sure thing. I don't think anyone was doubting that. I'm certainly not suggesting our QB problems are over, that Rex is our guy. I'm just saying I was pleasantly surprised today, and feel a little more confident that Rex could be a stopgap, certainly moreso than McNabb has been.
For the record, that doesn't lessen the fact that we foolishly traded away yet more draft picks for a guy in McNabb who gave us 13 games of mediocre, at best, play. Today was a pleasant surprise, but until we stop giving away draft picks like water, we will have to continue to be happy with moral victories.
I hate moral victories, moral victories are for losers, however the second half, this almost looked like a football team.
If you can't give either Rex or the Redskins in general at least a minimum of props for today, that's your issue, not mine.oh please...
