Undisciplined

Recommended Posts

This team is horribly undisciplined, committing 9 penalties in the first half.

Case in point, the Olsen penalty on the first drive forcing us to settle for a field goal.

This is a disturbing aspect of the new regime; repeatedly losing big yards on both offense and defense due to penalties. Win or lose today, without fixing this we are not going to get many victories this year.

discipline always comes down to the head coach.

Which people don't seem to realize.

John Fox may have fallen to the new age of play, but this team was very well disciplined under him.

I'm not expecting much from Rivera this year, but this undisciplined, sloppy, and uncorrected mess that we're seeing week-in-week-out is getting tiring, and very telling of this team.

Teams are what their coaches are.

We're a very talented, but undisciplined mess.

The point they were making was the 2 penalties on the FG were bogus.

There may have been a couple of bogus calls, as there is in any game.

The point remains, when you have 13 or 14 penalties a game, more often than not it will prevent you from winning.

Maybe we only deserved 8 or 9 penalties but that is still far too many for a game.

My biggest complaint with the refs was the blind eye they seemed to turn towards the 'Skins. Yes, we committed the majority of penalties they caused but it felt like they missed some really easy calls that should have gone against Washington.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
