2014 NFL Schedule

This may have gotten lost in the last few pages. Amazing how much goes into it, and I think everyone involved at the NFL deserves a well earned happy hour.


I heard an interview this morning with one of the schedule guys on NFL radio. Really interesting to hear about the process and how it all comes together.

I think it was a huge factor. I dont think Shanny ever wanted to give away all thos pick to take RG3 (that's where the meddling owner comes in) so deep down RG3 knew he wasnt Shanny's guy and didnt trust him. IMO the Seattle playoff game was the final straw.

DS always was and always will be a huge contributor to the Skins record. The fact that he was the driving force behind the RG3 trade will impact the Skins record (for better or worse) for years to come. The DJax deal has DS written all over it, we will see how that impacts this season.

I agree this is a huge year for Hasslet.

Regardless of who pulled the trigger on the trade, it's over and done with. Shanahan had the final say on all football matters so he obviously signed off on it. New year, new coach, new weapons for RG3, new attitude at Redskin Park, it seems like Brown and Campbell are taking larger roles, we're headed in the right direction.

To me, I don't know how anyone can not be happy about Jackson. He fills two needs, we gave up 0 drafts picks to get him, he seems to abuse us every year and we took away the Eagles best player. I like that gamble and it's worth the risk.

Stop making so much sense!

Everyone talks that way but it is not really true. Philly ejected Jackson, no one took him away. Philly was going to lose him to someone else no matter what.

Technically you're right but the impact of a 'double whammy' is to our benefit. We wouldn't be at all excited if he landed in Dallas or NY because we'd still have to face him twice a year. My Cowboy fan friends were pissed because they thought they had gotten rid of Jackson when the Eagles cut him and now they still have to face him twice.

My issue with the quoted post is that Lesean McCoy is far and away the Eagles best player, not Jackson. We will see however how much space he has now that teams don't have to account for Jackson's deep ability. There was like a 1.8 YPC difference for McCoy between when D. Jax was on or off the field.

The Birds biggest threat now wears B&G on Sundays. Bottom line.
Edit -Paintrain is rite about Mccoy so one of their biggest threats. However lets see what Mccoy does now that teams can stack the box alittle without the fear of DJax going over the top.

The RG3 decision boils down to the fact Shannhan had control over football operations the years before RG3 and he pulled that Mcnabb/Beck/Grossman brain farts. After that he had to get RG3. No one was gonna let him come in to the season with another one of his trust me I know what I'm talking about QBs. He should have been fired for the Beck thing IMO.

They rejected him because they didn't want to pay him the money and I guess there were issues with him and Kelly. At this point who cares? We got a really good player, didn't give up any draft picks, on a team that won 3 games and he fits a need. The Redskins are a better team with Jackson. It's the coaches job to manage the BS behind closed doors.

I would say McCoy is their best player, but Jackson is one of their best players, and certainly their best wr.
