Washington Redskins: 10 Reasons Mike Shanahan's Team Will Exceed Expectations | Bleacher Report

I liked to read positive things about my TEAM.

I'm just happy the warpath now has an inside joke with hatters. Before I was always jealous of ES with Malcomb and Paloffs. Now we have hatters which is like a zillion times better.

More hatters. This is a fantastic article.

The media and fans of our region have recently all become expert talent evaluators. I've heard that the Redskins will be lucky to finish 3-13, I've heard that John Beck doesn’t have the footwork to be a successful NFL quarterback. The footwork? What does any fan know about footwork?

We describe our fan base in DC as being passionate and knowledgeable. We say Marylanders know crabs and football. But this offseason has proven that this region’s football knowledge is microscopic; it can't be seen with the naked eye.

We've cried for years that Dan Snyder's decision to spend high dollars for prime time players was wrong. We look back in disgust at how we unloaded a pile of loot on Deion Sanders, Albert Haynesworth, and Adam Archuleta. We've all screamed for years that this was not the correct way to build a contender. So what did Mr. Snyder do?

He gave the fans exactly what they hollered for: A very competent general manager in Bruce Allen, and a proven champion in Mike Shanahan. Mr. Snyder agreed to not over pay on free agents. And the organization seems to be building the team through the draft, like fans once talked about. But as Coach Shanahan pointed out, talk is cheap. Fans talked the talk, but they weren't prepared for the Redskins to walk.

On SportsNation yesterday Colin Cowherd had a "true-false" segment, and the question was "the Redskins will be the worst team in the NFL." Nearly 5000 people voted in the online poll, and 48% said yes. Double ouch.

I thought the same thing and its wierd when we are called a young team.

NO way we'll be worse than the Bengals, Panthers, Bills, or Dolphins. Hell, I wouldn't be shocked to see the Vikings, Cardinals or Seahawks take a nose dive either.

I agree, and I'll throw the 49ers and Jaguars in there as well.

Well, I think the Jags have improved a bunch this off-season, and the 49ers have a good deal of talent on that team(gore, edwards, crabtree, davis). It all depends on their QB play. If Smith plays halfway decent, they'll be in the hunt for the division. If he plays absolutely crappy, put them down for the Luck sweepstakes. Their defense alone should keep them in games though.

Maybe we'll find some middle ground. Players have confessed, facing the season with low expectations increases their motivation. Flying under the radar can be a good thing.

I'm so tired of these ass clowns such as John Riggins or John Feinstein who have so much hate for Dan Synder it sickens me. Riggo is a Redskins legend but now he is in the media with his own tv/radio show he loves to clown the Redskins. No matter what the Redskins do he finds some way to talk trash about the team or the staff. Riggins dislikes Shanny so I'm having a hard time listening to this old bitter Redskins Hatter anymore. He has 2 other clowns with him on the show who kiss his ass to whatever he says. My opinion of the John Riggins show is that they want to be comics with nothing important to say about any sports topic. Now when I watch the WP show with Ivan Carter who is ok , but when this so called Redskins expert John Feinstein shows up bashing everything about the Redskins and its owner is BS. Why do they continue to bring this fool on the show. Yeah I'm going to listen to this idiot who has never played football on any level tell me about my team. Please what a fu.k..g joke this loser is. I'm a realist and I know our owner has made some big mistakes with the team but I think he gets it now by stepping aside to let Shanny and Allen take over the football operation. Well we finally get our wish for Synder to get out the way so let Shanny and Bruce do their thing and stop crying about every move they make. I'm riding with Shanny and Bruce to fix this mess that we have had for about 10 years even if it means Beck is our started this year. I see a plan now lets hope the real Redskins fan do to. Big Shout Out to Dan Synder for getting it right this time.

This is just my opinion and I'm sick of the Haters out there. HTTR

Oh List of Redskins Haters
1.Riggins ( Old)
2.John Feinstein ( Never played Football, Made at Synder's deep pockets)
3.Brian Mitchell ( Bitter about being cut for Deon Sanders)
4.Lavar (Still pissed he got hosed out his money )
5.Jason Reid ( Works for Washington Post)

When ever someone says something bad or quite possibly the truth in a negative way, they are haters, not fans, all that crap. Riggins likes to talk and draw attention to himself, absolutely. However, i think what he is saying is mostly true. He played for this organization when it was a prideful organization, had a way of doing things (Redskin way) hard working veteran guys, family oriented. when snyder bought the team, that feeling was put to the side and it became a very very different atmosphere. He is bitter at the way Snyder has turned this one proud franchise into a laughing stock in the area and in the leauge. Have never listened to Feistein so no opinion on him. B. Mitch is pissed and righfully so. He was a Redskins and a core guy. He played his ass off for this organization and basically was thrown out the door for a hated rival. (which no one liked or likes to this day) Deion was never liked here. LaVar situation is more than you care to admit. There is always two sides to a story, his no different. When you give money up to move out, that says something more about the feeling of the team and the front office instead of a guy being greedy and wanting out. He didn't like the way other Vet guys were being treated in terms of their contracts and said he would give money back, leave and they could have their deals reworked and stay in Washington.

Look, just because someone says something negative about this team doesn't make them haters, or liers, or traitors whatever you want to call them. They are probably more passionate than you think, which is why they spray the venom.
