turtle28 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I know I'm one of the few, but I am interested to watch a healthy speedy PRich & the speedy rookie McLaurin together this year. The Redskins have a lot of speed at WR, and good route runners. Not sure what will happen but they could shock people. It probably won't happen that they are good bc we can't have nice things, but the potential is there for each of them to make a lot of plays w/ their speed and for Quinn to be effective in the slot bc of his quickness.

We sign Smith ( not that he was much of a nice thing BUT, breaks his leg ) We sign PRich-breaks his shoulder. Guice we draft- tears his ACL. Doctson #1 pick had heel tendinitis for 4 years , the list goes on. I guess we're just NFL typical but seems worse since it's our team . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you talk about Alex Smith and compare the amount of guaranteed money they gave him, to the amount of it that Kirk Cousins got, it's really a negligible amount. So add him onto the "can't have nice things" list either. Bruce Allen blunders are abound, but he is no closer to being let go. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post hedging recently has been quite a turn. Still the optimistic outlook, but adding in the "but it's us" because history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ovfd55 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 My heart says it a close game that could go either way. My Head says it isn't likely UVA and Redskins win on same week end so Desean prob burns us early for a big play and we struggle on O trying to play from behind.

Still the optimistic outlook, but adding in the "but it's us" because history. I like certain parts of our team but I don’t think overall we’ll have a good season. I do like the youth we have, but they’re young so bc of that I don’t expect too much this year. I think as long as we keep Scherff and have another good draft that in 2020 or 2021 we will have a playoff team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troublez Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 My outlook for the season is not great; however, our Defense will be a lot better than most are recognizing. I think Collins, a healthy Nicholson, and Bostic will push this unit into top 5 (even with Norman's abysmal coverage under Manusky's scheme). Add the following to the mix: 1) Wentz - bit rusty due to injury 2) Phi RBs - unproven If we can make this game one dimensional, I could see an inter-division upset (despite Phil being all around, much better). Wash -20 Phil -17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget the stupid penalties. I expect at least three holding calls on Flowers, probably a false start or two as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I'm not in any fantasy leagues(*) this year for the first time in forever, I only have to pay attention to two teams. Not counting on there being many weekends where I'm happy on both Saturday and Sunday. (*) There's a dark horse possibility I sign my son up for one because he wants to play badly. Keep forgetting to do that though and really running out of runway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanTaylorsaPIMP Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Really not looking forward to the Eagles Tight Ends catching a million balls 12 yards down the field with our LBers in pass coverage. I think that's whats gonna kill us on Sunday as much as anything. Eagles- 23 Redskins -17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
