Go back and watch the Redskins games this year, they have been winning games in spite of Alex Smith not because of him. Still baffled by this. Thought this was going to be a great pairing. No idea what happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor was the rest of the offense, the coaching staff, the front office or the defense after 2013. Some dark times there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what happened Its because Gruden's scheme heavily leans on medium length passing routes (meaning not deep but not short routes) and Alex Smith refused to push the ball down the field.

HDsportsfan Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I don't know about all the rest of this noise. But I do know Colt has beat us before. Hopefully our better defense won't let that happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 18 hours ago, Forge said: Unfortunately for Washington, he won't retire from it even if it were. His salary next year is fully guaranteed I believe, with no guarantee date (IE, not guaranteed on the third day of the league year or anything so far as I know like his 2020 salary - it's just guaranteed). If he can't play, that's going to be pretty brutal for them in that regard. While his cap hit isn't onerous or anything for a quarterback, it's pretty bad for a quarterback who won't play a down for them if that were to be the case. Smith's 2019 salary was guaranteed at signing of his extension. His 2020 salary becomes fully guaranteed on the 5th day of the 2019 league year. There's an open question whether the 2020 salary is guaranteed for injury or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death by crucifixion, death by evisceration, and death by scaphism (look that one up ... but not while eating) are all painful, slow, horrible ways to die.

naptownskinsfan Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Word from the team is that there was no ligament damage found during surgery, and that this is a 6-8 month recovery time for Smith. So best case scenario is that he resumes football activities following the NFL draft, worst case scenario is that he's ready right around the time training camp begins.

Ignore all the other stuff about him, the guy still has no desire to put together a team that actually wins games. I mean, Kaepernick hasn't played a game in two years or so. Is he in game shape? Is he mentally ready to go? He's not someone you bring in as a mid-season backup right now regardless of the off-field distraction concerns. At least with Sanchez, it's a guy who has worked with three of our coaches, including the QB/Passing Coordinator and the Offensive Coordinator. He should pick up the offense as quickly as anyone.

Woz Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Let's leave the Kaepernick side of this topic alone. Yes, he's a quarterback, but at this point he generates way more political discussion than a sports one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So ... he's potentially going to miss most if not all of the offseason workouts and thus be unable to get in sync with the rest of the offense? That means that excuse is still valid going into the 2020 season? Joy ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith broke his leg in a home game in Washington DC. - The final score in both games was 23-21. - 3 time DPOY Lawrence Taylor was in on the play that broke Theismann's leg. 3 time DPOY JJ Watt was in on the play that broke Smith's leg. - Both Smith and Theismann were on the 40 yard line when they got hit.
