Nah, I'm pretty sure my opinion of Joe Gibbs won't change even if the Redskins win this game.

if joe gibbs wins another playoff game in his careeer, i will eat my words and apologize profusely to the redskins faithful

[IowaSkinsFan]

wtf is your issue with joe gibbs, the guy is a hall of famer who is arguably one of the greatest coaches of all time (obviously not the greatest but can easily be argued as top 5).

[UG]

game has passed him by

[IowaSkinsFan]

game has passed him by

yay im just going to listen to what the mainstream media tells us. Just like everyone does about 9/11 amirite?

[gabe]

football knowledge has passed george by

[IowaSkinsFan]

mcat is a tourney donk which instantly makes him less credible.

[gabe]

lets just talk abuot how great the redskins are because they are so awesome

[zook]

No doubt the Eagles win tonight. The Skins have question marks all over their offense and while their defense is solid, it's no match for McNabb and Westbrook. And just because the media says it doesn't make it false, Joe Gibbs never should have come back to the NFL.

I'll gladly put some $ on the Eagles -6.5.

"No doubt the Eagles win tonight.

I'll gladly put some $ on the Eagles -6.5."

if theres no doubt surely youll give me a nice money line?

[zook]

I hate taking moneyline favorites, but I'll split the difference on what the books are offering (2.77:1) just to make it interesting. So I'll bet $138 to your $50 if you want.

Anyone else who wants action, I'd prefer to give the points.

[mcatdog]

ISF,

I totally agree about not letting the national media tell you what to think. You can be more informed than the national media, on pretty much any topic, simply by paying close attention and doing one's own research, especially since a lot of TV reporters are pretty stupid human beings. I'm such a huge dork about sports that I watch almost half of the games that are played in the NFL ( DVR and NFL replay) so my opinions are definitely mine and not theirs.

Joe Gibbs makes a lot of in-game decisions that can't be justified on any level. For example, kicking a 40-yard FG on 1st down in overtime last week. I realize there's more to being a coach than what goes on during games and I'm not qualified to judge those things.

[Lukie]

wtf is your issue with joe gibbs, the guy is a hall of famer who is arguably one of the greatest coaches of all time (obviously not the greatest but can easily be argued as top 5).

NFL has gotten so much tougher and more competitive since those SB wins so it's hard to use those as barometers of how well he is going to do in the modern era. I just think coaches like him, Coughlin, Parcells (last year) are just too old school and stuck in their beliefs to make any real push towards a superbowl. None of them have in recent memory.

That said, redskins are looking good tonight, and their defense is smothering the Eagles O except on this drive. 4th and 3 coming up...........

[Lukie]

you can add others to that list too, e.g. art schell (sp?)

[zook]

I take back what I said. Both teams suck, but the Redskins suck less. It's going to be a long season.

[bigred]

[IowaSkinsFan]

Rilla, can we get this thread stickied for one week?

If not how much will i have to pay you?

LETS HEAR IT

IF YOU LOVE REDSKINS PRESS 111

oh and mcat, i respect your response a lot and think you are correct in that statement. btw the response before about credibility being lost cuz ur a tourney donk was a joke if that wasn't clear already.

[lolzzz_321]

111 cuz i have naploeon dolomite on my fantasy team

zook, u could be a chiefs fan!

[zook]

zook, u could be a chiefs fan!

Will they win a championship in my lifetime? Honest to god, that's all I'm asking for. If I knew that just one of the four teams I root for was going to win the big one SOMETIME before I die, I'd be content. (But preferably while I'm still young enough to enjoy getting stupid shitfaced celebrating.)

[dthorne04]

jesus christ mcnabb srsly did not look in playing shape. he hung so many receivers out to dry, underthrew balls, overthrew balls...god. what a fucking mess.

i'm on utter life tilt.

lkj;asdflkjasdflkj;asdkl;jaksldfjklsadf

WHY

they look flat. they've had one offensive touchdown so far this season. no urgency...so many clutch plays fucked up by guys not named brian westbrook. seriously, other than tomlinson, i don't know any other running back i'd rather have on my team. ffs, one touchdown in twenty three possessions....JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESUSSSSSSS.

[mixchange]

gibbs really only won 2 super bowls, but was a good 80s coach. I don't see him becoming awesome again...

jason campbell looks fantastic, what an arm!

I think McNabb is done, Garcia looked better with the same offense.

[IowaSkinsFan]

gibbs really only won 2 super bowls

If you're talking about versus the 49ers lol.

[Silly String]

zook, u could be a chiefs fan!

But to be a Chiefs fan, you have to resign yourself to having a punter as your MVP.

[bigred]

I have mcnabb and eli manning as my qbs, wtf

[WildBobAA]

EAGLE FANS HERE COME THE LIONS

WE ARE GOING TO WIN IN YOUR HOUSE

[mixchange]

gibbs really only won 2 super bowls

If you're talking about versus the 49ers lol.

yep, easily not PI, and Theismann is still denying it like a little baby, though they lost the sb that year

go back and look but read the PI rules from that era. PI is now called totally differently.

and roger craig owns john riggins, who is like the worst HoF ever

the strike season sb stuff, maybe you have one legit sb at best, sorry the redskins are the most overrated franchise ever

[dthorne04]

god, i will go on utter life tilt if they lose to the lions.

though, with sheppard hurt, and dawkins might be out...matching up against your wr corp will be tough.

[IowaSkinsFan]

gibbs really only won 2 super bowls

yep

You have a bad memory, the Skins didn't win the super bowl that year. They lost to the Raiders.

[Numbr2intheWorld]

111.

Although i feel like it was more the Eagles beating themselves than the skins winning. Mcnabb looked terrible.

The skins still have a lot of problems. 4th quarter defense, Campbell is still shaky, O-lines getting banged up, and stupid little mistakes like the false starts and that really bad delay of game.

The Bye week comes at a perfect time, hopefully Randy Thomas will be back soon and Campbell will start being more on target.

[mixchange]

guess you had the thread open and replied after my edit

yes, I was thinking they won that year at first.

however, i also remember their strike shortened sb shiat

the only thing to like about the redskins is doug williams

and john riggins is still super average

[IowaSkinsFan]

Redskins are the shit.

[WildBobAA]

Just a HU for you Redskins fans. our secondary is shit. Jason Campbell is not as good as he looked Sunday. Look what happened to the Eagles, they scored 52 against us and the next week they are held to 3 against NY. Our defense is just awful right now.

Agreed, but just because your defense is bad doesn't mean we can't take away positives on offense. Campbell had been constantly overthrowing guys and tossing easy INT's in previous games. He made some really good throws and hit the easy stuff well. What really impressed me though is how good he was in the redzone. It's awesome to have a mobile guy who can just make something happen.
You have to admit we blanketed your offense, which is what impressed me the most. I think Martz called a horrible game though, he should've just kept running the ball, you guys weren't getting and less than 4 yards a chunk.

[bigred]

DIDN'T READ ANY OF THIS

WORST THREAD EVER REGARDLESS

[EzDuzIt]

lol redskins.
ill be at the next game in green bay. packers 31 skins 10
packers should be 5-0 but they gave the last one to the bears with all the shitty turnovers. and gay ref calls. like bears kicking a FG make it... but oh wait one guy was lined up with his helmet at an angle to the fuckin center. 1st down. touchdown. and they reviewed a play that the bears clearly had 12 men on the field and it wasnt overturned lol. wtf all the ref to do was count the players on the field in the replay and he couldnt do it. that 12 men thing wasnt that big of a deal it just pisses me off that refs can mess that kind of thing up with a replay though.

[flomo]

so who won?

[b-rabbit]

anybody catch the cowboys game last night??

[will641]

gibbs really only won 2 super bowls, but was a good 80s coach. I don't see him becoming awesome again...

what are you talking about? joe gibbs won 3 titles, not 2.

[Trikflow77]

anybody catch the cowboys game last night??

what a sick game!

[IowaSkinsFan]

We argued about this already, he felt like the NFC Championship game versus the 49ers had a bs call which decided the game, what he didn't realize is the Redskins actually lost that superbowl.

That is the worst argument if he's serious. I guess the Patriots didn't really win the superbowl in 2001 because that was kind of a bogus call with brady's fumble against the raiders.

[will641]

anybody catch the cowboys game last night??

what a sick game!

yeah i did see that game. it was hilarious when edwards threw a pick in the redzone, then the very next play romo threw a pick in the redzone.

however, it made me very angry that the lost. i threw and shattered a cd case at the wall when he made those back to back 52 yarders. WTF? he's a rookie, hes supposed to miss those!

[euphoricism]

And if he played for the bills, he would have ;]

[will641]

Okay anybody interested in a $5 wager on the Packers vs. Redskins this weekend?

Spread is Green Bay -5 (in other words they are favored by 5). I am betting that they do not cover the spread.

Any takers?

[IowaSkinsFan]

Wow the spread moved to GB -5? It seems like a pretty evenly matched game, I'm surprised it didn't stay at -3.

[EzDuzIt]

Wow the spread moved to GB -5? It seems like a pretty evenly matched game, I'm surprised it didn't stay at -3.

should be more.

you be smokin' more crack than charlie murphy in your avatar.

[will641]

what the fucking fuck! i cant believe we lost that game.

[EzDuzIt]

lol.
santana moss fucked up.
refs sucked too... bubba got pushed out on that td catch so instead we got no points.
i was 2nd row at exactly the 50 yard line right behind the redskins. it was really cold and raining.
why are there so many redskins fans on FTR?

[gabe]

because redskins are americas team--everyone loves them

[will641]

why are there so many redskins fans on FTR?

don't you know all the smart people in the world come from D.C.?

and yes stupid moss fucked up real bad. it was gay. their defense played great, their qb did pretty well, it was just every other stupid mother fucker on offense that blew it. AND WHERE THE FUCK WAS THE PROTECTOIN???

[EzDuzIt]

because redskins are americas team--everyone loves them

ive always heard it was the packers and cowboys as americas team.
but it wouldnt surprise me if the patriots were nowdays since there are so many fair weather fans out there.
anyways 5-1 ship it

[gabe]

lol ? why would packers be america's team? that must be a joke

redskins have the most profit out of any team so america spends more money on them because redskins are so great!!!

[EzDuzIt]

theres a vote on it i think.
packers were winning it for a long time with like 20% of people saying they were packer fans or somthing like that.

lol silly redskins.

o yeah there was a lot of indians outside the stadium protesting the redskins name. i dont see the big deal. if they get the names changed we should take away their casinos.

[will641]

yeah people always need something to bitch about.

[Trikflow77]

lol ? why would packers be america's team? that must be a joke

redskins have the most profit out of any team so america spends more money on them because redskins are so great!!!

how bout them redskins. I have to admit, they look better than i thought, but they are STILL NOT A TOP 5 TEAM!!!!!

[gabe]

probably top 7

[EzDuzIt]

so... close game today

[Trikflow77]

probably top 52-7

FYP

[will641]

bump.

we had a pretty good draft, imo. ship it.
