Bye Week NFC South Thread

Wow, great job by Washington holding Atlanta to 3 in the first half.  Atlanta had scored 75 points in the 1st half of its previous games.  Even if they'd made the FG, holding them to 6 would have been really noteworthy.  Go SKINS!

(It feels fun to root for the Skins again... I was a big Skins fan from 1987 - 1992 when I lived in the DC area... Joe Gibbs golden years...  It was fun.)

before there was a Panthers team, my family was all Redskins fans. there were a sprinkling of Colts, Cowboys, and Falcons fans. but mostly skins fans. so i dont hate them. they're just easy to make fun of.

Just checked... prior to today. Atlanta was averaging 18.8 points per 1st half, ranking them 3rd in the NFL behind AZ & NE

But it turns out, Washington has been very stingy with its defense in other games too... allowing only 5.5 points on average in the 1st half, 2nd best in the NFL after Cincy.  (Panthers are 8th lowest with an average of 8 points allowed in 1st half)

Sure, the Skins have been lousy for so long now, and their management so poor.  But they were great in the late 80s & early 90s.  Gibbs really modeled high character and they were a team I could feel good rooting for.  I'd not cared about football since (especially since I've worked overseas for long stretches of time most of the past 23 years)  until catching Panthers fever in late 2012.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
