I’m happy with what the Redskins did. Any help in the secondary is a positive. There defense could very well be in the elite status with this move. I would have been happiest with Patrick Peterson but I’m willing to bet the asking price was way too high so I’m cool with Haha coming here.
I’m also very okay with them not going out and getting a big name receiver, because with the way Alex Smith is playing and hasn’t been able to get any chemistry with his current receivers after 7 games, chances are some guy coming in wasn’t going to make that big of an impact.
It was already going to be interesting at the way this season is playing out. Both games in December, and they are most likely going to be very meaningful.
Wow and I just read all they gave up was a 4th round pick? And if Dix walks after this season, the Redskins get a 3rd round compensatory pick? WTF? This is like a steal of a trade LOL.
There is no fucking way that Bruce Allen orchestrated that trade. I refuse to believe it. I think that was all Doug Williams. LOL!!!\
I see a lot of other Skins fans complaining that we didn’t pull the trigger on a WR. With that said, the Seahawks just released Brandon Marshall. Maybe that news will quench their thirst. LOL!!
A lot of Redskins fans are fucking retarded and know not a lick about football. I remember how many Redskins fans thought Colt Brennan should be starting. We are just a stupid fanbase for the most part.
Tell me about it. Everybody complained about Vinny Cerrato for years. Yet they bitch when the team doesn’t pull BS Vinny Cerrato moves. I’m glad we started building through the drafted and minimizing the big splash Free Agent signings.
I watched Colt Brennan play throughout his time here in Hawaii. No way was he ready to be a starting in his rookie year as quarterback in the NFL. June Jones’ Hawaii college quarterbacks were failures when they tried to transition to the NFL. Hell some of them didn’t know how to read defenses properly either.
Gruden will probably find a way to dump Derek Carr because he doesn’t want his building project to be handicapped by that huge contract. He will draft a quarterback and run with that cheap contract while building the rest of the team to his liking. Chip Kelly tried to do the same thing when he got control of player operations. He got fired due to public pressure but it put the Eagles in position to get Wentz (Eagles won the Super Bowl while Wentz was on a cheap rookie contract).
Carr sucks he should find a way to dump him. He was one of those dudes who had a stretch of good games that wasn’t his norm, and since this industry is a “win now” industry, everyone jumped on it and thought he was the next Brady. Carr sucks and is a brittle little bitch who will do nothing in the league. He’s the next Sam Bradford except he’s not always injured, he just always sucks or is mediocore.
He got fired because the team completely turned on him and he proved he couldn’t draft for shit. This only works when you have a willing scapegoat taking all the heat and then immediately replace him when you’re ready to draft and turn the corner. Or you’re Jimmy Johnson who had Jerruh’s full, unconditional blessing and backing.
Carr was solid with Del Rio’s first OC. Can’t remember his name. He left and they brought in some nobody, got rid of his security blanket in Crabtree, he got hurt, and he hasn’t been the same since.
There are a lot of QB’s who are good for a chunk of games and that chunk of games is the anomaly. I know this best as a Redskins fan during the RG3 era. After his rookie year I thought the franchise was set for a decade.
But we all know how that went…
IMO, that’s what happened with Carr. He was solid in the right scheme with the right people and once it changed and things got figured out, he turned to crap.
RG3 was never the same after his knee got shredded. His deep ball accuracy went to hell and for the life of me, I don’t understand an elite athlete can’t learn how to slide. Although I agree with your overall point. You don’t really know how good a QB is until they league has tape on him.
