I was right when...

I was right about Clinton Portis being a good soldier under Shanahan.

I was right when I predicted that today would be yesterday's tomorrow.

I was right joining this Site, I don't do facebook or anything else like that. I don't put myself out there like other folks, but this has been a blessing. Before I joined up here the only way I would get Skins info was from ESPN or Redskins.com. I know I dont post as much as others and don't have much friends here but I'm here all the time time like a fan.

Thanks MattyK72. :)

I was right when I went to the doctor to see why my hand was swollen, and he said, mooby you have tendinitis in your right hand, next time don't get drunk and fall asleep with your body weight on your right hand cutting off blood flow to it for 5+ hours. Here's these pills, it'll help with the pain and swollenness you'll have for the next 2 months.

I was right about Vinny Cerrato being a complete moron incapable of running an NFL franchise.

I was right about the Bradford shoulder talk being overblown...so far

I was right when I said we should pay the price to move up and draft Bradford...so far

Well...isn't this necessary after admitting our "wrong" opinions lol?! Anyway, I'll start :)

I was right when I said very early in the off-season Skins fans should be very concerned about our defense under Shanahan/Haslett. In short, it's been a disaster IMHO. The new regime took a very solid 4-3 defensive unit, arguably an addition or two away from being elite, and turned it into one of the worst in football. I understand we don't have many players who fit the 3-4...but shouldn't that be part of the decision process before forcing the switch?!!! Now we face major personnel turnover to make the 3-4 successful. How long will it take? Will Haslett be around long enough to see it through (knowing Shanahan's penchant for axing d-coordinators)? Will Shanahan even be around long enough to see it through?

That's a glaring overestimation of the defense from last year. Lots of older players who overachieved under Gregg Williams and were only going downhill without an infusion of younger guys. We've been in the 4-3 many times this year and they sucked either way.

Just wondering where all this support was for the D last year? I kinda recall most everyone being fed up with Blache and his ultra-conservative schemes. I think Beems is right, the talent just isn't there, and the age of the unit and lack of talent is glaring this year now that it's not being protected by a super conservative approach.

Thank you Matty.

I don't think last year's D was the 'lights out, shut everyone down in their path'-type defense many of us are making them out to be.
