What if Keenum had dropped the snap because he hadnt been playing and his hands were cold. Lions recover and they have another opportunity to win the game. You finish the game. Pay attention to whats happening If Allen did this, fans would lose their minds. Its a terrible look Has this ever happened in the history of the NFL? I’m serious.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Instead of being a knucklehead, he ought to learn the playbook. It's common knowledge in the DC area that he still hasn't done so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was dumb but some of these reactions are over the top. They won the game and their rookie qb took a picture with a fan. Wow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo716 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 What's funnier is that "fan" is a new NFL fan at his first game And he is going off on people on Twitter lol Joe Thiesman called it unprofessional that Haskins would do that and the Selfie guy called him a Baby Boomer ??

Let the KID enjoy the win. If josh did this wed all be laughing It’s really nothing like that at all. In fact, Allen would be getting ripped if he did that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to be really curious what will happen if the Skins get the number one overall pick. I think the LSU QB is a must take, but I can see them sticking with Haskins and taking the Ohio State DE, perpetuating the years of ineptitude. The Redskins are dumb enough to fail to see that Haskins is a sunk cost and instead pass on taking a QB. 7 minutes ago, C.Biscuit97 said: You know we had a guy quit at halftime last year right?

His game clinching throw was inaccurate to a wide open receiver, and McClaurin made a very good catch. I know it's early, but man does it look like Haskins is a complete bust.

I really haven’t watched him besides our game. He looked like a young qb on a crappy team. They are an awful, awful organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like he's completely out of his depth. I mean, who really knows, but sometimes you can just feel the stink. I say this as someone who loved what AZ did in the draft this year. They knew Rosen didn't really have it, and weren't going to waste time trying to re-figure out what they already knew. Murray is the real deal. As for Washington, both Alex Smith and Cousins produced there. Smith got hurt, but he was playing well. The team is not devoid of talent.

They had Trent Williams to block for them and those team were completely different. Their best offensive player is a rookie. Minus the terrible Giants game where he completely wasn’t ready, his first 3 games measure up to Allen’s last year. he may suck. But it’s kinda crazy that people can make any real judgments because he plays in one of the most dysfunctional situations in sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The snowplow dad, the fact that Snyder drafted him because of geographical proximity to his high school, the cluelessness on the field (worse than most rookies), the episode yesterday (celebrating a win before the game was over against a bad Detroit team), and of course the sideline episode with the o-line all suggest problems.

This was dumb but some of these reactions are over the top. They won the game and their rookie qb took a picture with a fan. Wow! The highlight of the season to you, I bet. And what does that have to do with Haskins? You want to stick up for a guy who "won" a game throwing 45% (13/29) 156 yards, an interception and 0 TDs? I bet if Josh allen had this kind of day and decided to miss a play to take selfies with fans, you'd be sticking up for him too? I think I'm in line with most astute football observers. It shows a lack of commitment and focus. And it's not like he's earned some slack by showing talent. The Skins won mostly thanks to a kickoff return for TD plus 4 Lions turnovers. And yet here you are sticking up for the guy. Go figure. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/for-dwayne-haskins-this-selfie-could-stick/2019/11/25/652d9528-0f46-11ea-b0fc-62cc38411ebb_story.html?utm_campaign=post_most&utm_medium=Email&utm_source=Newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most&wpmm=1 Edited November 26, 2019 by PromoTheRobot 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what the Cardinals did by taking another QB this year. If the player is a definitive upgrade at such a key position, then do it. No one will care about Rosen if Murray makes it as a pro. You are very correct that the Redskins will ruin whatever player they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haskins made a boneheaded move here, no doubt. Still doesn’t trump Gus Ferrote ramming his head into the end zone wall. You are right. He is not at Gus's level of Quarterbacking or being a meathead. His father does appear to surpass Gus's ability to be a meathead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure a player would do that rather than just mess up in person interview with teams he did not like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 It Is quite interesting reading the comments. Everything from not a problem/funny to immature/selfish. When I played any player that allowed himself to get this distracted during a game would have gotten in trouble with the coach. Especially the starting QB. Different times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
