Ugh, Reid just punted away any chance of winning.

Yeah, fans love hating on the guy because he doesn’t win in the playoffs, but he’s a great offensive mind.

There is one flaw with your theory. If the other team is better (which too many have been over the years) you can blame the front office for that. On a serious note, I like this team and the current regime. I just think we have a way to go.

Agree with all that, except I don’t think our offense is better than last season. When Allen was on the field last year, our offense was better than it is this season.

With that run defense and our sad offense, they are also all possible losses. I don’t say that to be negative, my point is that regardless of who we play, we need to get things right. Adjustments need to be made to get back to winning football. The Miami victory was not winning football either, against any team that isn’t historically terrible.

Daboll has failed at every stop as an OC. I never had any reason to believe he was the guy I wanted here. He’s done little to prove otherwise. I just hope they move on from him sooner rather than later. None of us want to see Allen’s development slowed by an inept OC.

This is my biggest issue. I like the McBeane regime. They took us to the playoffs, and restored direction to this franchise. McDermott was able to take a 2017 squad with very little talent to the playoffs. That says a lot about the guy as a coach. However, my concern is the fact that McDermott teams continue to suffer blow out losses at home against quality opponents. That’s not supposed to happen to decent NFL teams. McDermott and his coaching staff continue to get outschemed and outcoached against good opponents.

Yeah, apparently everyone is just joking around, or no one actually read the article.

I was thinking something similar. Any team that relies heavily on its defense to win games isn’t going to have a cakewalk against anyone. Quality defensive can beat anyone, but without consistent offensive scoring it’s tough to look overly impressive as a collective team against any opponent.

Fair enough, I don’t care when people talk down the Bills either. I’m just saying the knock against the Bills and Vikes are pretty much the same. Neither team has beat anyone decent, and both lost their greatest tests. I think the Bills can beat anyone, but I also think they can lose to anyone, so a Bills vs Vikes game would be a close call.

Are we saying this in the same way that people say the Bills are overrated, but we get all hurt when they say it ? Idk, the Vikes are 5-2, and a possible playoff team. I don’t see them being overrated.

They actually have some promising young WR talent imo.

Skins look pretty weak against the run though. Hopefully, Daboll doesn’t get all pass happy as usual. We’ll be fine if we use the run to set up the pass against this team.

I know Snyder is a joke. I’m just saying that rumor had it he wanted Haskins. I doubt that he hires someone who sends Haskins packing after one season.

I didn’t realize that, just read the score and numbers.

Anything’s possible, but wasn’t Haskins a Snyder influenced pick? I’m thinking Snyder will hire someone who fits with Haskins. Fair enough, he’s just the stereotypical journeyman QB.

I agree, barring injury he’s not playing us next week. The Redskins are a dumpster fire, and that certainly doesn’t help Haskins. Haskins being the starter against us (however unlikely) wouldn’t really scare me, but he does have potential, which is more than you can say for Keenum.

His numbers aren’t bad, but he put up really good numbers the first two games of the season. Keenum posted two ratings over 100, and 5 TD’s to 0 Int’s. His numbers have been quite ugly since. He threw for 77 yards last week against SF.

Yeah, I’m not big on Haskins, but an unknown rookie without much film scares me more than Keenum. I know Haskins looked bad in his one start, but you never know. I’m more confident that Keenum is guaranteed to be terrible.

I agree, and I don’t think their D is as bad as the numbers indicate. It will be a low scoring game next week imo.

Yeah, hope he’s the starter next week.

I agree, Gordon is a big name because he had a monster season back in 2013 with bums playing QB in Cleveland. He’s an average WR production wise ever since.

2013

You’re looking at it the right way. If you bring in a guy like that, you just look at him as quality depth. We are lacking at that position. I take issue with anyone who thinks Gordon is a number one, or can produce like an elite talent. Otherwise, anything is an improvement.

Good points, I just don’t know if Gordon’s current production levels are worthy of dealing with his baggage and potential for future transgressions. If Beane is stressed enough about the position to bring in a guy like Gordon, he should have considered drafting a WR earlier. Make a deal for AJ Green, or Keenan Allen, then I’ll be interested. Yeah, as usual somethings fishy in Foxboro.
