Fanspeak: Washington Commanders

It was only in 2012 when two rookies on the Redskins offense looked to be the long term future of the organization.  Those two guys are now no longer Redskins.  Robert Griffin and Alfred Morris both found new teams in the last couple days.  Both of their exits were expected for months now and it … More »

Let’s start with the bad news first.  The artwork on the future Redskins stadium was just plain awful.  But I am happy we saw it now when there is no funding or a location than too late.  Now the fans can crush the moat and the horrible design like they did the thought of Jim … More »

With the Redskins being quiet so far on the free agency front I have just a few thoughts on the fellow NFC East teams.  But first the Skins and what is going on so far.  I don’t have a problem with how things have moved so far.  But I do think the team really has … More »

1- Real quick on the Kirk Cousins situation.  The franchise tag was the right call since they two sides could not reach a long term deal.  And unless they reach one in the next couple weeks I then don’t think it is as much of a rush to get things done until July.  The $19+ … More »

Not that it is any bit of a surprise but finally someone with the Redskins said that Robert Griffin would be moving on before next season.  Bruce Allen did not shock the world with his comments to a radio station in San Diego but finally we can move on.  There is no other option now … More »

Where is this whole Kirk Cousins 2016 thing going now? Talks are supposedly not happening and now the insiders are even saying there is a chance the franchise tag won’t be placed on Cousins at all? I am shocked it is getting to this point but we are still talking about the Redskins so anything … More »

Free agency starts with the new league year on March 9th but teams now can begin to cut the cord with some of their currently signed players.  It’s cap casualty time and even with the Redskins in a decent cap situation a looming quarterback franchise tag we should see a few guys go bye bye.  … More »

1- Who hates the Redskins?  I am guessing whoever chooses the alternates for the Pro Bowl because no one is going from Washington.  Even after all the Panthers, Broncos and skipping players passed on this worthless game.  How pathetic are the quarterbacks in this game?  OK, there are some solid guys but Teddy Bridgewater?  Really?  … More »

I was listening to a local radio show and the question was if the Redskins could take one player from each of the final four teams who would you take?  So here are my thoughts on who I would take. Carolina- I think 90% of the people in the DMV would say Josh Norman but … More »

1- And the season is over.  Just like that the Packers came to FedEx and gave the Redskins a lesson on postseason football.  To me this game was way too eerie of the Seahawks playoff game of 2012.  The Skins came out strong just like 2012.  And like 2012 once quarter two got going it wasn’t … More »
