When did Rivera get fired you ask? *checks notes* after Dwayne beat him and his boy Kyle Allen in Week 13 last year. after Allen got sacked 7 times and threw a pick. im not saying Allen can’t improve. But That’s funny.anyway, Haskins was probably done as soon as Allen was signed. Edited October 8, 2020 by YoloinOhio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Way to go Washington. Another outdated Coach turning back to a garbage backup QB that he brought with him from the last place that fired him, throwing to a subpar set of skill position players. Gave Haskins all of 11-games in a dysfunctional organization. Great plan there, just like the Jets hanging Darnold out to dry. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haskins should be asking for a trade out of there. He’s going nowhere with that organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to see the player play to properly evaluate him. Watching Josh in his rookie year anyone could see the flashes of brilliance that gave observers encouragement for his future. I doubt the same could be said for Haskins. Are there any rumors about Haskins having behavioral issues? A demotion is one thing but this move did seem rather drastic, no?

I wonder what he would cost in a trade. Better backup than barkley This is what you want? A dude who doesn't put the work in because he thinks he doesn't have to? A dude that gets called out by a teammate because Alex Smith is at the facility earlier than he is every day preparing even tho he knows he will be inactive every week? My lord...he wouldn't even prepare and put the work in as a starter, what do you think he is going to do as a backup??? No thanks, we don't need another Billy Joe Hobert. This dude would never fit the culture here. Either he would shape up quick or he would be out the door. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/report-dwayne-haskins-poor-study-172235925.html Edited October 9, 2020 by matter2003 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...just posted a link to an article a few posts down from your original post saying Haskins was unprepared and unmotivated to put in the work off the field to get better. Specifically mentioned practice and study habits and said a teammate went after him because Alex Smith was always there before him every day preparing even though he knew he would be inactive every game.

Bobby Hebert never played here like I stated earlier. Are you referring to another qb named Billy Joe Hobert who was with us for as season or so in late 90s?

Thanks, this makes sense. Many folks are not equipped at a young age to be given millions of dollars and still have the same drive to work hard. When I was his age, I can't say for sure how well I would have acted with my pockets stuffed with huge, guaranteed cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Fromm for Haskins, phone it in. Seems like Washington is simply done with Dwayne and the feeling is mutual. Maybe it's my Buckeye glasses, but Haskins is a way better prospect than Fromm. I think he fits the mold of what this offense asks Allen to do better than Fromm. Bring him in as the backup.

I'd be down for that. Player swap. Very possible. I assumed their must be off-field issues with his game preparation. Then I just see the article posted here. Lack of preparation is unacceptable for any player, especially QB. I will say, though, that a new environment might fix that issue: 1. Washington has issues swirling around it for years under Snyder. Might not be the best environment for him. 2. Haskins would not be playing at home, where his family and friends might be a distraction for him.
