Shanahan is still chapped about losing in DC I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 No Nats?! The Nats don't really have a bandwagon yet. They're too new...they haven't had a series of truly !@#$ed-up seasons for people to give up on them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 At least the stadium is pretty nice. The perenial ****ty teams always have nice stadiums. The Royals (last year and this year excluded) have a beautiful stadium, same as the Pirates. The Cubs are known as possibly the shittiest team of all time, and the most beatiful stadium.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I love quotes where people don't attach their names. It's cowardly. How do we know the coach is any good? All I know is RG3 had one of the greatest rookie years I have ever seen. Then he got hurt. Then he got the chubby Gruden who only got the job because of his brother. And he plays on the Washington Slurs, a dysfunctional franchise. He might not ever get it together in Washjngton but I won't be shocked if he went to another team and had a rebirth. I heard this story on a DC Sports station yesterday. I can't recall if they gave a name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 roman would have some fun with him. He has to learn to avoid contact though. Even Cam Newton, who is much bigger, gets banged up. RG3 was a pretty accurate passer too. But his feet take his game to another level. I hope he gets it back because I loved watching him playing in college and his rookie year. The last 2 years have been depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 He apparently needs his legs to be successful but unlike Wilson has taken a pounding over the past 3 years and that has limited his ability. Also it doesn't seem like he's grown as a player; is he too arrogant? too wrapped up in celebrity? victim of bad circumstances and bad coaching? Who knows, maybe all of the above. I'd say its more likely than not he never regains his rookie year form, but still too early to write him off entirely. He is too close to the owner so impacts ability to be corrected.

If you read the original article, they put together an anonymous group o' guys and solicited them to opine about the league's starting QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 At least the stadium is pretty nice. I had input into that stadium design. Not a lot...but it was important. My wife's boss at the time was on the DC sports commission, and one of the guys instrumental to getting the Expos to move down here and get the stadium built. When they were planning the concessions at the ballpark, he had the brilliant idea of selling fast-food sushi. That brainstorm ended quickly when I asked him "You want to sell raw fish in a ballpark, in DC, in August?" So...you're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billykaykay Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 that is sad. So is everyone still calling for Cousins? I predict that sometime during this season, Cousins will beat out RGIII. Griffen is simply not a good QB. He's lost it - kinda like my golf swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBD brain trust missed out again. That's why you do nothing, but draft QBs with all of your picks until you find one.
