I Was Wrong When...

[mooby]

I was wrong when I thought Rex Grossman wouldn't see the field again in 2010.

I was also wrong when I thought McNabb would be our starter for the next couple seasons.

I was wrong when I said that the 2008 draft would light a path for others to follow in the NFL for years to follow..............

I was wrong when I told people to invest in Enron and Worldcom then saying that the Google IPO was overpriced.

[SmootSmack]

SportsCurmudgeon was wrong when he mocked me this spring after I said we would sign Rex Grossman

[53Fan]

I said Marcus Washington would sign with another team and play well......damnit!

[tryfuhl]

I said McNabb would be a huge upgrade over Campbell.. I might not have said huge.. but definitely significant

I expected McNabb to come in and perform at his usual levels of effectiveness and being stingy with turnovers. I expected Jamal Brown and Trent Williams to solidify the OL to where it was at least average. To sum it up, I was wrong about a lot when it came to this season.

Now, I expect it will take at least 2 full offseasons to get us back to full respectability to where we can contend with the top 3-6 teams in the NFC.

I was wrong on pretty much everything you listed above as well. I don't think we necessarily had 10 win talent, but I definitely thought we'd be at least 8-8. I really thought our 4-3 linebackers and linemen would have an easy transition to the 3-4. Not the case at all lol.

I was wrong about RG3 :-(

These are pretty funny to scroll through so I thought it was worth the bump. Also, I know some on here may need the therapy.

I was wrong when I said the Lombardi would definitely be ours in 2013. I was wrong again about it last year. I'm pretty certain I'm wrong about it this year.

I was too. I thought he had the talent to adjust but his ego and stubbornness among other things got in the way.

I was wrong this morning when my initial thought of hearing about a trash truck which had caught fire on 95 south; that the Redskins were moving to Richmond ala colts to Indy style.

I was wrong about RGIII.

I was wrong about the pistol and R/O becoming a regular part of NFL offenses.

I was wrong that injury concerns arising from using RGIII as a runner as well as passer would not affect him long term.

[The sum total of what has gone wrong in the RGIII experience - RGIII's inability to protect himself/reckless style, coaches who tried to fit a square peg into a round hole, the owner's interference in the way he was managed, etc. has just been disheartening. Plenty of blame to go around on this one. It was not just RGIII and, quite frankly, I'm not even sure it was mostly RGIII.]

I was so very, very, very wrong to hope the franchise had turned the corner.

I was very wrong when I thought B. Allen was an improvement over Vinny - BA is just a different, less sleazy, kind of incompetent.

This, I was thinking Bruce would have been a big game changer. Just another Danny extension now...

I was also a Vinny supporter way back in the day.
