Touchdown for Cutler!

Too bad it was to us instead.  )

[HoffmanMyster]

Some Bears fans came in to the bar with maybe 5 minutes left in the game and said some hilarious stuff that I can't repeat here.  )   Oh man, what a game 

[Flyersfan1]

Eagles first half had me like:

mfw they sweep the niners on the way to the playoffs.

[bueller]

rip cards season

I hate seeing someone out for the season but I think the 9ers might actually have a chance at the playoffs now. Just need the Shehawks to continue their ****ty play and we might actually get the NFC west lead.

That #50 filling in for Willis... he is a hell of a ball hawk. Only thing that really stuck out. At least you can be happy about that.

[demik]

yeah, that pick was great. good to see willis has somebody good to cover him while he's out.

chiefs won! go chiefs!

[HoffmanMyster]

Okay, time to talk about the Packers!    Hehehe

[katushkin]

So apparently there were fans booing eleven minutes into the game against Tampa today. Which is pretty much a ****ing disgrace

I went into this game knowing there was little chance of even competing.  Rodgers is too good, by far the best QB in the game.  Maybe if we actually had a decent pass rush, I'd be more optimistic, but we can't even get near him.

[HoffmanMyster]

That punt return!!  Hyde coming through.

And unsportsmanlike??  What?   

[katushkin]

Well, the Redskins season is officially over. However we never manage to get to the level where we get first pick.

I guess that's reserved for the Raiders this year.

[bueller]

You guys put up a hell of a fight. So many stupid mistakes at critical points from the 49ers O and bad run stopping from the defense.

[katushkin]

I watched the first half and just saw the result this morning.

From watching the first 30, I thought we were lucky to get 7 points. RG3 threw poorly, the run game was average, the play calling awful, the secondary was almost as bad on third down as the offence was, the special teams loved yellow as always, and the defensive line was probably the best part of the whole team.

The first four drives were 3 and outs. Somehow we managed -7 passing yards at the end of the second quarter. I really don't understand.

at least theyre evenly matched with their mediocre seasons.

Only Morris, Way and Defence showed up to the field. Our passing game is non-existant thanks to robert griffin the turd. I nominate Pierre Garcon as our new QB.

The NFC West is brutal man, you have pretty much zero chance of making it to the playoffs if you give up more than 4 games. Cardinals were a perfect example of that last year, they were 10-6 and still missed the playoffs.

Yeah, NFC South is pretty much the same way

[katushkin]

So is the NFC East!

Who am I kidding, no it's not. The Cowboys will finish 8-8 and the Eagles will win it, Redskins last. RIP.

More turmoil at Washington, RGIII has been benched in favor of Colt McCoy for the next game.

Funny to see the droves of people practically diving off the RG3 bandwagon, especially living in Redskins country

I know I probably missed his glory days but I haven't been impressed with him at all the last two seasons, always struggled to see why he's so highly regarded.

Nope, he was never franchise quarterback material, even when they were winning. I'm just thinking about how when he first started out I actually argued with a friend who thought RG3 was gonna be better than Andrew Luck. Look how that turned out...

[bueller]

RG3 was gonna be better than Andrew Luck. Look how that turned out...

LOLLLLLL. Luck is a future HOF'er, no way could you say the same about RGIII.

The mobile quarterback thing is cute and works in college when the defenses are passable at best most times, but in the NFL the only QB that's going to do damage is a standard, pro style QB with a good arm. Now they still need to have the ability to move away from pressure when need be, but not using set QB run plays every series. The reason Russel Wilson is good is because he's one of the few who is a great passer but can not only evade pressure with his feet but create yards

I'm starting to agree with this more and more these days. I used to love Kaepernick's ability to scramble but lately it's seems like more of hinderance than a help.

RG3 wasn't drafted 2nd only because of his mobility, it was because he had a killer arm AND the mobility. His rookie season success was be due to the similarity of the skins and baylor offenses, there was not much to learn.

It's apparent his problems are mental. His confidence is shattered, he is learning grudens system and the media is ****ting on him. He cannot connect even the easiest throws. Maybe he wasn't that smart of a player after all. Now, should these things should affect an NFL QB? No, but no point crying about it now that the damage is done.

His time as a starting QB in Washington is most definitely over. Him getting traded/cut/benched still won't fix our problems. I'd like him to get a chance somewhere else (rams/houston/arizona) and turn his career around. I wouldn't mind if he went on to win the SB with another team.

If you're a QB and want to have a career in the NFL pray to god you don't get drafted by the redskins.

I'm not so much diving off the wagon, more resigned to staying on it with my head bowed as it careers off a cliff. I'm just disappointed that he hasn't come back strong, disappointed he was injured in the first place, disappointed that people expect him to be 100% after the last two years he has had. I was pretty sure the ankle sprain he had this season would be the end of his career, and now I think it's actually happening.

Disappointed I bought a shirt with his name on, if he's going to be replaced by our third string QB.

But of course the fact that the rest of the team is pretty shoddy doesn't help. I find it annoying that one person who isn't always fully to blame takes the rap. It's the same in soccer where the manager always goes if the team is doing badly. Gruden is new so he wont get kicked out. RG3 has been in and out so it's easy to get rid of him as he's used to it. Why fans have been calling for RG3's head is beyond me.

Must your jersey always have the starting QBs name on it?



That's saying much considering how ****ing ugly the pats logo is, shudve gotten the red throwback one instead.

[katushkin]

Might just buy a Ryan Kerrigan one instead...

Ugh it was awful to watch. Glad I was watching it with friends so I at least got some enjoyment out of it.

[katushkin]

LETS KEEP THE OFFENCE ON AT 4TH AND INCHES WITH 25 MINUTES LEFT IN THE GAME ON OUR OWN 40 GUYS. WHAT COULD GO WRONG??? GUYS??? WHY IS THAT BIG GUY IN BLUE RUNNING INTO THE ENDZONE WITH THE BALL??? GUYS?

****ing Gruden. **** Gruden.

[katushkin]

And there was me thinking our secondary was better this year.

That's FOUR TIMES they have had a receiver wiiiiiiiiiiide open down field.

****.

[katushkin]

I mean look at him. People are using RG3 as a scapegoat, when we traded so much for him, and so much faith and effort has been put in him, through injury after injury, but of course, it isn't the brand new, unproven head coach, BROTHER of the guy we REALLY WANTED's fault is it? It's RG3's fault the secondary sucks, the O line sucks and the special teams suck.

Sure he says the wrong thing at press conferences sometimes, but so what, would people prefer he read from crib cards all the time?

44 plays = 49 points. Are you serious.
