Love that take, paraphrasing here – "If Sam is the guy, you have to go all in." Yea you can't hedge your bets. You need to put all resources into either pumping up the rest of the team or getting someone who is "the guy".
Well said RG3. Ron needs to roll the dice, get an OC and find personnel to help Sam Howell and maximize his skill set
Why would you want analysis from a guy who couldn't play the position and was generally CLUELESS the entire time he was in the NFL.
New Offensive Coordinator should be first.
We all know Scott Turner needs to go, he's a proven liabilty to this team success. Ron's loyalty is going to cost him his job.
Look at Robert making sense and spitting FACTS
Yes but look for a big biachhhhh like Allen
Ron being loyal to Turner is gonna cost him his job!!
If u remember Fuente at VT was loyal to his OC n wouldn't can him n he lost his job!!
I think they should get rid of Scott Turner and consider plucking someone from the 49ers staff. Anthony Lynn, Bobby Slowik, or Brian Griese.
Why draft a QB you don't have faith in!! This is the problem with Washington no damn patients!! Look at Giants they sticking with their QB !! Give Howell a season to see what you got!! Build a decent O line draft LBs ! And please get rid of that WE ARE A QB AWAY FROM SUPER BOWL 🐂💩
They need to get rid of Turner. He holds the entire offense back. And stay away from Kingsbury. As much as I don't think Kyler will succeed Kingsbury didn't do him any favors.
Other than the horrible decision to Win with Wentz 4 28 million the biggest detriment to the offense was Turner. Scott just cannot adjust to game conditions so he has to go. Like a dog with a bone Ron will probably keep him so that means for progress to happen they both have to go.
Tbh the new owner needs to hire a GM whose been following the draft process closely to that point and demote Ron to HC. Let the GM do whatever he wants after next season.
Ppl tried to tell u Turner was a Jag but fanbase and RiverDope refused to listen. Clear case of good ole boys network operating in the NFL. A favor for a favor. Norv gave Ron a job so Ron is returning the favor. Its not about the best candidate but in Sports talk for some reason we avoid the obvious.
Sam "Happy Feet" Howell is the team's #1 QB. He is the only QB with a contract. Taylor is a better runner. He runs with eyes downfield to pass to Terry or another QB.
He’s not as fast as a healthy heinicke at all… but his running vision is on a running back level
Howell is the new man and the other two won't be here next season at all!
So what I got out of this is we’re gonna suck until Snyder and Ron are gone
Heinicke and Wentz are ass Howell is the answer
NFL means Not for Long!!!
Find your Qb.
If you truly believe he is out there. Move heaven and earth to get him. If he is in your locker room. Move heaven and earth to build around.
I said this in Preseason , Howell is a little Bigger , Stronger , Version of Taylor with a Better Arm . Plus , have to add if there was clear room in front of him to get a First or YDs , he takes it and then gets down , Unless its at the Goal line . Turner didn't do him any Favors with his Play calling , Maybe because OL is so bad , but it will all come down to one thing . QB's with talent succeed or fail based on one basic skill . Decision making !
Ron really dont like to talk about what they are planning on doing ton keep outsiders out. I notice that
in the way they was answering questioning about the moves they are going to make. Plus that kind of keep other teams from not knowing what you are doing
Their gonna franchise tag Heineke for the season and pay Payne and draft and QB so he can learn the books and Sam Howell will be QB#1next season and the rest will be on the owners and the coaches after next season
ONE GAME IS NOT ENOUGH, TAYLOR SHOULD BE THE QUARTERBACK
Should've been starting
This just in….WSH fires OC Scott Turner 👏🏽👏🏽
Upgrade the O-line, LB and TE in the draft and sign a veteran corner
Forget loyalty this is a business
Have him be a scout or band director
