OT: Washington Redskins 2018 Season V0l. 2: 1-1 = Half empty... :(

[Beef Invictus]

I know it's only preseason, but there certainly isn't any improvement over that horrific rush defense from last year.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Hoskins is so bad beyond 50.

It’s the scrubs. They were up 17-3 at halftime. Not real life?

This just in, NE’s 2nd string is better than the Skins 3rd string.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

findlay didnt say the whole thing. its a just in case mri

Getting an MRI is getting an MRI.

Hoskins is so bad beyond 50.

He made a 52 yarder in the 1st half.

Continuation of an established trend. Shrug it off if you want, but don't be surprised when the real thing sucks too.

I remember when I made the same comment about our run game being weak, and it was shrugged off. Then it continued to suck in the regular season.

I can't be the only person who reads Guice as "Juice."

You are leaving out $40 parking passes and $8 beers.

Don't park in the stadium. Ride the Metro and walk there. Also all the beer is free because of the tailgate All you need to do is bring food.

This antenna on top of the TV is the best as I can switch between the Ravens and the Redskins cause I get D.C. and Baltimore stations. Best $35 I have spent in a while.

I gave up on antenna at least in this apartment because apparently if you live in Sterling or Ashburn you can't even get signals on antennas anymore because it's "too far away".

Please don't let Juice or Leonidas be hurt.

 

[hockeykicker]

Please don't let Juice or Leonidas be hurt.

if guice was dancing around in the locker room postgame and walking around on sidelines during game id have to assume (in my non medical expertise) that its not too bad

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Soooo much if your team's season relies on getting lucky and not getting hurt. It's amazing how many of these guys (in the NFL) go down for the year before a meaningful snap is taken.

My hypothesis is that these dudes simply get too big for the bodies. The human structure doesn't seem to be built to be able to carry the body weight and lift the amount weight that these athletes carry and lift. Ligaments and joints are strained and can't strengthen as quickly or as fully in correlation to muscle mass gains. Add into that equation that many of these collisions carry the same impact as minor car accidents and it's no surprise these dudes keep getting wrecked.

This is why I think anyone who doesn't support players in getting as much money as possible is missing the point. For most, if not all, of these guys it's a question of when -- not if -- they'll suffer a severe injury.

I never thought of how brutal this year must be for you.

Despite my loyalty to the Burgundy and Gold, even I can't hate this Eagles championship team.

Become a Caps fan and also cheer on Djoos.
