Awesome

One thing that does make me more optimistic about the offense, apart from the addition of EB, is that BRob will start the season healthy, as opposed to with multiple gunshot wounds. A very stiff D and stout running game is a good combination, and I think EB will find ways to make our running game more imaginative, including by using Gibson as a receiver more often.

But mostly this week, I am holding my breath and waiting to hear that the sale is completed and that we will never have to hear about Snyder again. THAT is winning off the field, as far as I am concerned.

Norwell cut, should save $4.3m on the cap

We just signed Michael Badgley, a former kicker for Lions.

I think they need to bring in others as well...really don't trust Slye.

No question, we need a real competition for the position.

Most media outlets have this team around 6 wins. I think the Howell transition is the main reason. The talent is there on offense to win 8-9 games there is no excuse.

If they finish last in the east again Ron is out

As much as I hate to admit it, the predictions seem fair to me. But I agree with your notion - we definitely have the talents to win 8-9 games (or even more), also Rivera said that we have the talents we need to win games per Keim's report so this is do or die year for Rivera.

Although I wonder if the new owner group would feel inclined to allow Rivera stay for the entire contract since I imagine they have been learning a lot about what Rivera had to deal with ever since he became our coach.

Sam Howell is going to fuck, this season.

Y'all need to get ready to be successful. It's gonna be fucking weird.

skinsfan69 · 07-26-2023, 06:35 PM

I guess no one wants Carson Wentz. He remains unsigned.

sdskinsfan2001 · 07-26-2023, 06:52 PM

It's a great day to be alive. I love y'all.

Carson Wentz is officially a Canadian Football League quality QB now. I'm sure he'll get an opportunity in the NFL again this season though. Someone will get hurt and he'll step in as Shitty QB1 or Mediocre QB2.

The best part about this season is knowing next season will be better!

17 games to answer the following:
Is Howell the guy?
How much is Chase an elite pass rusher and can he stay health?
Is Bienemy our next HC?

Realistically, Howell is going to get killed behind this OLine.
Hopefully everyone avoids major injuries.

sdskinsfan2001 · 07-26-2023, 08:40 PM

Let's fucking go! My boy in Denver has tickets to the game against the Commanders. Free ticket if I fly out. I'm flying out! Gonna be my 2nd Washington game ever.

Man, excited Jamf is my new fucking spirit animal.

My biggest concern, can the Oline rebound from last year. As a skins fan we take pride in strong line play, but Ron most fireable offense was his clown effort bringing in washed up panthers guards last year. That really pissed me the fuck off
