Thanks Skins

Yep its amazing these guys could even put on pads today, quite frankly they were not ready and what was expected of them to "honor" sean was not realistic. They honored him by showing up to day something that was very hard to do.

Very tough day, no doubt. My heart is with the team going through this terrible time. I wish they could have pulled it out, but they left it on the field.

You all have got to be kidding!!! It's not that we lost the game that upsets me, it's HOW we lost the game, and so many others like it all season long. Granted, there were excellent individual performances today, but as a team, they fell apart, like they have done so many times this year. Gibbs needs to go back to Nascar, and I would love that except for the fact that Saunders is next in line and he is the last person this team needs a s ahead coach. Between the bad playcalling by Saunders, the horrendous clock management by Gibbs, or the half assed play by most of the team, we didn't deserve to win this game, or half of the games we have won this season. It's time to blow it up and start from the ground.

It's time to blow it up and start from the ground.

FYI - Contrary to popular belief among teenage fans, blowing up a team isn't as easy as hitting the reset button in Madden. If you want to blow up the team, be prepared for a few years of 2-14 type seasons.

Considering I am 32 years old, very far from a teenager, and have seen a few teams in my lifetime blow up and start over, it can't be much worse then this and the last few seasons have turned out for us. Granted we had a post season birth, but everyone knew we were not gonna win that first round game. Let me elaborate a little bit on what I meant exactly. Both Gibbs and Saunders should be gone next year. Campbell, well, not many will like it but here goes, the man does have a cannon of an arm, but that does no good when he's completing passes to the defense. I say hang on to him for a little bit until we can acquire a truly great QB, either in the draft or free agency. And it is not our record that bothers me, it is HOW we ended up with that record. Yes, I know there are highs and lows in a season, the Taylor situation being uncontrollable as it is, all season has been a low. Now to really get people mad at me, if Taylor was where he should have been, he would have been at least on the sidelines today. I mean, these guys make millions of dollars to play a game. Part of his responsibility to the owner, coaches, teammates, and fans is to behave in an appropriate manner, meaning abiding by ALL rules. Gibbs had no idea he had gone back to Fla, because he wasn't supposed to be there at the time. I am not faulting him for his demise, I'm just stating if he had done as he should have, he would be here today. I do feel for his family, and had a few rough moments myself as a lifelong Skins fan. But emotions do not change the fact of the matter. If you make that kind of money, you do as you are supposed to, not as you want.

Except of course we did win that game

Given up on Campbell already?

And then I read the rest of your post and realized that you're not going to be a very valuable member of this board with comments like that

It's a public forum, not everyone has to agree with every post on here, it's MY OPINION. Opinion meaning, what I think, I realize not everyone thinks the way I do, but more people then you realize have my exact sentiment.

To answer you question directly...


Given up on Campbell already?

Yes, in fact, I never agreed with the choice as Campbell for a starter when it happened. I do however realize we are working with what we have, I would just like to see us have better. With Snyder's deep pockets, we can and should have better.

I apologize if I offended anyone with my postings, but again, I am simply stating my opinion, backed by some facts.

You don't have to take every post personally.

Go away. Way to F up what was meant to be a positive thread.

what was meant to be a positive thread? Thanks Skins?


Thanks for what?

Having a shi**y season, for giving many a game away, for getting our star player killed?

Ok then, Thanks, thanks for letting down a lifelong, born and bred skins fan. This is a low point for the team and fans as well, and if you cannot handle people expressing their honest opinion, maybe it is you who should not frequent this forum.

The problem is your opinion is backed by a lot of errors. You say everyone knew we'd lose that first round playoff game, but then don't acknowledge that we did win that game.

You say Taylor was supposed to be at the game, but chose to ignore the rules and not go. He was injured, he didn't need to be at the game. He didn't break any rules by going home to his family.
