sparky151 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 I don't see much reason for optimism in Washington, other than not being the Giants. Didn't the new owners hire their 3rd choice as head coach? Maybe Quinn surprises but I wouldn't bet on it. Likewise with Kingsbury. Someone like Ben Johnson or Dave Canales seems more likely to help their rookie QB have success.

MKnight82 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Who cares who wins the NFC East. Lets focus on the first part of this title, how do we just eliminate the Dallas Cowboys? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it's illogical to reference last year as a way to project for this year (whether explicitly or not) while also projecting the Rams to finish above the NFC champions. Just saying....trying to shade the Rams (which you tend to go out of your way to do) talking about Seattle being the threat to the Niners is par for the course with your track record, and you've so often been wrong about it, I'd avoid bringing it into threads out of nowhere. But just a suggestion. I'll do what I should have done a while ago now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been reported over and over (including prior to the hiring) by our most plugged in beat reporters that Quinn was the leading candidate after the first round of HC interviews were complete. Unless you're referring to the 3rd choice of who the media and fans preferred as HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, I consider Seattle to be SF's biggest divisional threat. Their roster is inarguably better than the Rams', and Seattle has produced better head-to-head results vs SF.

Unless you're referring to the 3rd choice of who the media and fans preferred as HC. I was pretty much in the "I don't care who the coach is, so long it's not Ron Rivera again" mindset. Lots of respect to him as a person. However, He never finished with a winning record here & left the team in worst shape, than the one he inherited in 4 seasons. He drafted horribly & never addressed the O-line in his entire stint here. We could have hired Josh McDaniels as head coach & I would have been oozing optimism, compared to another round of Rivera here. Personally, I believe the Dan Quinn & Kingsbury hire was not only innovative & smart. But it gave me confidence, that Adam Peters knows what the hell he's doing. The Dan Quinn hire will get our Defense right. The Kingsbury hire, will allow us to be very creative on the offensive side of the ball as well. And Jayden Daniels, along with every Free Agent & draft pick fit the schemes we'll be running on both sides of the ball. I know it's year 1 in the rebuild. But I'll be more surprised if we suck again this year, than if we win the Division. Because this team is way more talented, than the 4-13 record of last year. Players gave up on Rivera. You could see it, after the Bears loss last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only really trust Keim when it comes to this team's recent moves. I do trust Schefter much more than Florio however... but John Keim trumps all.

I'm surprised to see Washington fans so high on their team...then again the ownership change probably instilled a lot of hope...couldn't really get much worse. I still see them as a bottom 3-5 team in the league though. Daniels just doesn't prospect well for me in the NFL. Dude throws ugly balls with bad technique which just gives me Fields vibes. I hope I'm wrong and he can be your Lamar Jackson. I think yall were pretty middle of the pack this year for your other draft picks. I guess we'll see. “Throws ugly balls with bad technique”? I didn’t want Daniels but almost every scouting report I’ve read doesn’t agree with this. He has tremendous footwork and a quick, tight release. His mechanics were never in question going into the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His mechanics were never in question going into the draft. Admittedly it's from my own eye test. I've just seen too many balls from him go wobbly and his feet not being set to throw with power (as is probably the reason for some in here to talk about a Minshew level arm talent). Edit: I was actually watching him cause I was scared the Broncos were going to trade the farm for a guy who really is going to need a lot of work IMO Edited May 29 by Dbrog24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
