"Racist Name Fans: Rams got a better QB & all your GOTdamn picks"
your boys mechanics are still not there and his flaws as a passer were hidden with that junk ass offense last year.
he's an articulate ass dumb pocket passer who had muhfuckas fooled by being articulate. he has no pocket awareness and can't read the D.
The Curse of the Elders is upon you. Bradford gonna be dancing in Super Bowl L and making it rain and y'all gonna still be cysing some damn Dexter Manley sacking Danny White.
And I'm 1/8 Chippewa so this is personal. IT COUNT!

i'd always assumed the highest intensity was reserved for cowboys-skins (mostly bc of the team names, i guess) and giants-eagles (geographic proximity)
but here in oks, it seems more of an equal-opportunity round robin hatefest.

This being the sh*tfest of a season im losing the will to truely hate anyone but the arrogance of some (most) of the redskins fanbase round here has me rooting against them even though i like most of their decent players.
In a normal year its probably Eagles>>>>Cowboys>>>>redskins

that's hate we can all believe in. in my gut it's philly first. however the obstinate racism amd the we outchea chestpuffing of dc havs now made them irksome. they haven't sustained relevance enough lately to get me worked up to hate.

but I will almost always be rooting for each of them to lose any game they play unless they're playing another NFC East team (when current standings & levels of annoyance with their respective fanbases come into play) or an extreme circumstance (Gints vs Pats Super Bowl to save us from the undefeated season).

like in the norris, we capital-H HATE the packers, lowercase-h hate the queens, and are just kind of condescendingly dismissive of the lions, who've been a non motherfucking factor for too long to work up any real hatred towards.

Wins a chip in this league, not in a quantified (before Griff) he's just not getting there.
Griff as a passer has a LONG way to go in terms of pre-snap reads and just general defensive schemes. He missed the open man a number of times last night on hot reads and is still getting his mechanics together. Missing an entire off season has really hurt a kid who didn't have great mechanics in the first place.
Griff will be a better qb by the time its all said and done and I have no doubt about that.

or the 'clearly the best team in division' one?
is the 'no chance in hell the Eagles could win 8' dismissal still a lay-up?
Would you say you are still scoffing at the notion of last season's gimmicky offense & lack of focus on professional passing concepts being a quick-hit but possibly a hindrance to RGPlea's progression as a passer at this level?
Still snarking about the Kansas City Chiefs lack of defense or running game?
If you had to do it again would you still go with the ASmith GIF of gaffe that led one mad moderator down his lock-happy path?
Why didn't the Nats plummet-to-earth season help DC fans manage expectations for the football team so that one small success would not be considered a given baseline for the following one?
We can stop the inquiry here.
Sorry it's been such an unseasonably frosty fall for a sarcastic know-it-all.
Or maybe the long, cold winter just arrived extra early this year.
Sheeeeeeiit.....at this rate for a mod-marked OKS whipping-boy-who-earns-it like smugsboy, this might even be The Season of The Beast.
Cover Up, Cochise!
But be careful about borrowing a blanket.
Some folks may not be your friends & you can't say where that quilt's been.
Let this little rough patch be a teachable moment to show how exposed smug can leave frostbite fissures when reality's cold starts sniping at your soul.

oh the combustability of Alex Smith....were he only the dazzling once in a generation wonder like one said Robert Griffin III.
58. "Hey I can see why you ride for him" In response to Reply # 47
He was Andrew Luck before luck, coming out of Ok he was supposed to be NFL ready with an arm that didnt' limit him anywhere on the field and accuracy that would enable him to fit ball into tight windows, with smarts that allow him to read NFL D's like the elite qb, it just hasn't happened yet.
I think he's good, but unless you've got the best D in the league good just don't cut it.

With other skins fans, because listening to angry ass Eagles fans, uppity ass Giants fans or Delusional ass Cowboys fans doesn't interest me. I'd like to talk about the team I fool with, i don't see why that's a problem.

43. "naw.... a trick offense isn't why he was #3 in QB rating" In response to Reply # 0
behind Rodgers and Peyton last year. It doesn't work that way.
and as a Ram fan...I obviously want Sam to do well...but the honest truth is that he's not the most accurate passer.... I'd say RG is a better passer...maybe not right today being that he's not healthy.... but RG...healthy is a better QB IMO...
but....
He's not so much better than Sam where having Sam and those draft picks isn't a win for the Rams as far as that deal is concerned...
53. "he's hurt...it's completely changed his mechanics...." In response to Reply # 48
and his ability to escape and hit his receivers downfield like last year..
coming off the bye week last week he looked better...but he's not close to 100 right now..
again..and I watch Sam every week .... his accuracy is a problem....he often misses wide open receivers....people have been complaining about his wrs dropping the ball but dude doesn't throw a very catchable ball a lot of times... when he's pressured his timing gets off and he rushes his throws or throws into coverage...
51. "please, that offense was a short-sell gimmick because Shanny needed" In response to Reply # 43
to get the ball rolling for he/his-son to remain employed after starting his Redskin tenure with two last place finishes and the fallout from the McNabb Experiment failing.
Plus Shanny is old and he wants to pass this job to his son when he's done.
He decided he didn't have time to waste trying to bring up RG3 the hard way via the growing pains and paces he put Cutler or Griese through before in Denver or how Andy Reid groomed McNabb in 99/00.
So he gave him a run-heavy, one-read offense, had his team's rookie franchise player running around like his hair was on fire while even at one point lining him up out at receiver.
2012 RG3 passed the ball 26 times a game, nearly FIFTEEN passes less than Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning per game last year, he also ran the ball eight times a contest.
Along the way he got fucked up a few times, did so again in the playoffs which led to a bizarre summer of communication struggle and has no real bread-and-butter pro passing stuff to lean on before having to go out there Day One (for some reason) this season and try to pull it without the threat of his legs.
So now you got a head-coach willing to risk sacrificing the most important long-term franchise asset for a short-term/self-interested gain, player willing to hurt his team's ability to win games in the first 3rd, and the little Telemarking Tyrant in the ownership box.
55. "haven't really seen an offense that basic & geared reliant on a QBs legs" In response to Reply # 54
in my life.
And that's me as someone who grew up with Buddy Ryan taking no ownership of the offense, Kotite being an offensive coordinator & Buddy just telling Randall 'you just go out there & make 3-4 big plays a game & we'll do the rest'.
I'm also currently watching a read-option-based offense with Michael Vick at the helm.
RG3's lack of attempts have to be accounted for in that passing rating.
I'm not saying he didn't have a great year, he clearly did and as a result deserved the ROY trophy.
What I was saying then & am still saying now as we see is that last year's offense was like a short-cut that didn't give him the chance to learn more of the shit that would be better for him as a QB in the long-term.
He could have handled it & Shanny sold him short.
Now that rookie year QB rating with only 5 INTs rookie year is going to be stuck being his Illmatic, an abbreviated but brilliant body of work that casts the shadow of unfair/unrealistic expectations on all his future performances.
57. "RGKneesus will be fine" In response to Reply # 0
I guess I shouldn't be so shocked that people are piling on dude this year. It's as if people want him to fail just so they can justify how good Luck is - which to me is silly.
AP set the bar waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to high coming off his knee injury. These things take time. A bad knee can screw up everything - anybody that played sports on any type of level with a bad knee can explain that.
I was hoping the *skins would be smart and sit him until after the by week. However a combination of Shanny wanting to save his job, the organizations marketing arm, and to a great extent RGIII's machismo prevented that from happening.
RGIII will be fine. His athletic ability hid how bad the line was last year, and it's being exposed this year. It's just not that good. Combine the factors:
- Franchise QB coming off a major knee injury - Aggressive timeline to start week one coming off said injury - Salary cap penalty which prevents the team from adding any decent depth - Coach trying to remain off the hot seat so he can set his son up to take over the team when he steps down - Shitty defense and special teams that forces the *skins to play from behind or with bad field position; allowing the defense to blitz a QB coming off major knee surgery
I'm not shocked he's struggling this year but I'm not sounding the panic alarm. Also, I love Sam Bradford and he's had his own set of issues. But it's a strawman argument IMO. At this point, Bradford should be the better QB.
