[quote=mooby;1378353]We've lost 7? in a row now, money is way too valuable to be spending on going out and supporting the team.

My main gripe is I'm sick of having to watch them on national tv, fucking game ended at midnight and my first alarm is at 3:45 for work. Put us back on the 1 pm game you fucking ghouls. Idc if Jayden drops 50 when he comes back, get us the fuck off national tv.[/quote]

I miss living out on the west coast. That late game ends just in time for bed. One day I will return!

[quote=skinsfaninok;1378368]Bobby Wagner is a liability big time.. Its time to let him go and get a young MLB in the mix. We have zero pass rush as well. The fact that we were in that game shows me how great our coaching staff is.[/quote]

I find is so shocking that they keep him out there in obvious passing situations. I don't get that at all.

Idk, Jets, Giants, and Raiders all went down to the wire with them too. They go down to the wire with everyone they play minus Cincy.

[quote=skinsfan69;1378361]Debo has been solid no doubt but this is where I disagree. He'll be a year older, he wants a new contract and you have numerous other needs. It's just not worth the risk for the money he'll want. You have to get younger at that position. I'd be against having two starting wr's that are in their 30's. I'd rather them spend money in FA on a pass rusher or two vs resigning Debo.[/quote]

I’m not giving him an extension either.

I’d like to see Burks get a chance to develop and hit up free agency and/or the draft for WR help

We must not have anybody else that can step in and play Mike

I see Magee starting next year, maybe our best LB, but does he start at MLB? Be interesting if Medrano and Kaho can up their game in the offseason and be starters. Could mean we don't miss Wagner and Luvu can concentrate on pass rush. I'm still inclined to draft an LB if they're BPA, but regardless I just don't think we should re-sign Wagner given he's only going to get slower. What he can bring in energy and leadership is going to get lost in athleticism.

I actually like Deebo a lot, and think that if we can bring him back on a reasonable deal, we should. He adds a dimension to our offense that few guys can offer. Having said that, I am not convinced he's a strong #2 opposite McLaurin, and we definitely need that. And I'd like to see how McCaffrey develops next year and whether Burks can resurrect his career with us (that one-hander was a thing of beauty). It's hard to know what to make of Lane at this point -- he's obviously not done nearly enough to command playing time, but he's another guy that is pretty intriguing. I don't see Brown or Moore back next year. Would be great to find a #2 if none of the guys we have at the moment is able to rise to that level of production and let the others compete for the available spots.

If Deebo comes in cheap for a one year deal, yes. Thing is, think he will want a multiyear contract and will be asking for to much.

We need a young and speedy WR either in free agency or draft; that will be Terry's eventually replacement.

[B]Intentional grounding call against Commanders was an error[/B]

>>>During Washington’s final drive in the fourth quarter of Sunday night’s overtime loss to the Broncos, Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota was penalized for intentional grounding on a first and 15 play from the Washington 46. NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay immediately disputed the call.

“This is absolutely not grounding,” McAulay said. “He throws it over the head of No. 17, who is outside the numbers. By rule, that is not intentional grounding.”

The play happened immediately after a questionable false start, which pushed the Commanders back to their own 36, facing second and 25.

McAulay’s interpretation is the correct one. Although it doesn’t appear in the official rulebook, the NFL’s collection of “Approved Rulings” specifically addresses the situation.

The language appears in A.R. 8.83. The title of the approved ruling is “Not Intentional Grounding— Receiver Outside the Numbers.”

Here’s what it says: “First-and-10 on B40. QBA1 is about to be tackled in the pocket by B1 at the B48 when he throws the ball out of bounds at the B30. The ball sails over the head of eligible receiver A3, who is between the numbers and the sideline. Ruling: Second-and-10 on B40. No intentional grounding. If A3 was inside the numbers, it would be intentional grounding.”

It’s a exception to the grounding rule, no different than the one that allows a quarterback to get outside the pocket and throw past the line of scrimmage, even if the pass isn’t thrown not in the direction of or it doesn’t land in the vicinity of an eligible receiver.

While the Commanders eventually converted, keeping their game-tying field-goal drive alive, they shouldn’t have had to gain the yardage or to burn the time needed to do it. They would have had more time to win the game in regulation, with a touchdown.<<<

When is the NFL going to get serious about getting calls right? They have the capability just fucking do it already. So tired of seeing total bullshit calls influence games.

I don't subscribe to the view there's a conspiracy or even just favouritism, and a lot of he time teams are heavily penalised mainly because they lack discipline, and likewise officials are human and just miss stuff.

Having said that, there were at least 4 egregious errors (anyone pick up on the screw up on the OT coin toss), and on top of that the smirk from Land Clark when we elected to kick was a WTF moment. This guys crew need a talking too.

They get paid enough for a part time job to be better. It's time they were full time officials and part time whaever else they do.
