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.


If he’s not willing to put in the work when the job was handed to him I’m not sure if he’s out in the work knowing he’s be nothing more than a backup here.

Naah.....QBs from OSU are never overhyped by their fans!

Pass on Haskins.  I just wish Alex Smith was healthy enough to start.  That team would start winning some games.  I mentioned earlier there was a report this summer, so not sure if accurate, he may have an ankle drag at least what some reporters were saying when they were observing a small portion of the practice.  Dr. Chow said on NFLR it’s possible from that horrific injury now that the infections, and bones healed, there would be a possibility of some nerve damage in the foot/ankle.  Chow mentioned that he didn’t think the team doctors would clear him though if that were the case and they could easily see in motion drills.  I’ll take him at his word as he was the team doctor for the Chargers for years and an authority in sports injuries.  For those that don’t know him he’s an Ortho out of CA.

Final straw apparently was him bragging after the game about his stats and his 300 yard passing game...

According to some, this is a racist dog whistle and you can’t say a black QB has maturity issues or a bad work ethic. It’s racist. Obviously.

I know this is slightly off topic but how is it week 5 and this team is still nameless? Conservatively it May take 4 hours to come up with a name and logo....it’s been like 3 months. What is the deal?

He said he's not choosing a name this season

Any NFL team with this logo just needs to rethink their whole season...

Seriously though, they do have a decent defense, but Haskins got destroyed his first few seasons in the NFL behind that Washington O-line. I have rarely seen QBs fully recover from such a rough start and he never quite put up the passing numbers folks thought he would. Rivera strikes me as a very no-nonsense kind of coach and he has no real ties to Haskins.

 

These guys have been pretty snake-bit as they got a decent coach in Rivera who then found out and announced he had cancer back in Aug.

Because that was what they decided to go with for the season and will revisit it after the season ends. There is a chance the name could remain permanently.

Reports are that they’re trading him before the deadline.

 

Who would want him, much less for anything substantial?

 

And I'll bet Alex Smith is starting there before the end of the year.

Haskins didn't show for the game today.  Claims to have a stomach bug.  What a coincidence that it happens the same week he goes from starter to 3rd string.

Didn’t show? He was sent home

Ohio State quarterbacks man.  I hope the Jets draft Justin Fields.  

Yes, they are exactly the same QB. 🧐
