I saw a stat yesterday that said the Skins are 8-2 the last 5 years following games in which they lost by 10 more more

So you're saying Smith is done, washed up, and simply can't play anymore? Because that was Brunell in '06.

I definitely don't agree with that.

Absolutely hated Brunell,still dont understand Gibbs bringing him in without a physical or tryout.
It's only been 4 games,no way Smith has been as bad as Brunell was,plus our receivers scare nobody,who was excited about the Richardson signing? Nobody! Doctson is shit,Jameson is not the same guy from 2 years ago.

I look for the defense to set the tone tomorrow...I want to see some panthers getting knocked the fuck out.

Offensively we need a heavy dose of Reed and Thompson. Gotta get your best playmakers involved early and often.

For some reason, Carolina's always held AD in check, but I won't be surprised if Smith is able to pick us apart.

On offense, we've got some exciting parts in the mix but I think we'll show some rust from Greg Olsen (if he plays) and none of our receivers are spectacular. We have a couple that really have that potential but aren't there yet. We have enough misdirection success that I think we'll keep the chains moving until we stop ourselves (which is happening way too frequently... but I think some of that is getting used to the new offensive coordinator).

From what I'm reading Thompson,AP,Doctson,Crowder,and Richardson are all game time decisions

I am happy to eat crow and admit I was wrong if I end up being wrong. I don't think Alex is totally washed up, but i think he is for sure on the "back nine" of his career, and the most we could have hoped for out of him was being a high level game manager. I never felt like he was an upgrade over Kirk.

Maybe they should lose by ten or more more often. Oh, wait.....

So Thompson and Crowder are out for today🤦🏻*♂️😩

If that story about Norman is true then that to me says he shouldn't be on the team anymore. It's time to move on. Guys like that are a cancer. And shame on Gruden for benching him for only a series. If Norman did that and was on the Patriots, what would happen?

On Thompson, that was all on Smith. He threw him into that injury no doubt. High ball on a slant at the goal line. At Thompson’s size I’m surprised he wasn’t sawed in half.

He wouldn’t try it on the Patriots because everyone knows Bill don’t take no shit. Norman’s gotta go and so does Jay.

Not hard folks, not hard at all.

Up here in Baltimore they are always throwing out a stat about Joe Flacco. The Ravens record when he makes under 35 attempts is well over 0.600, when he attempts greater than 40 passes the Ravens have a losing record. Alex I feel is in the same mold. Keep the attempts down get the run game going and open up some passing lanes.

Carolina 27 Skins 13

We are going to struggle to score. The few fans that show up turn on the Redskins. Lot's of boo's today.
