Now you know how the rest of the league feels about your team destroying it's future to move up and grab flash in the pan RG3. You should worry a little more about the mess they have in DC. Mmmkay?Not at all. I think watching Chip the GM work is hilarious.you seem hurt. Why?
5/42 with 21 guaranteed. Not sure of the year by year.Donny Loved Bowling said:
The narrative he's trying to write is that after 400+ touches a RB breaks down. That's why he asked who had a great year following 400+, not who had a better year. 1350 yards and 11 TDs is a great year. 1 RB in the league had that many yards in 2014.
Why would I worry about the redskins? I'm sure they'll suck indefinitely anyways. It's their job to prove me wrong now. Honestly I don't spend too much time worry about anyone's football team these days. It's all for fun after all.Now you know how the rest of the league feels about your team destroying it's future to move up and grab flash in the pan RG3.

But the narrative is for the most part true and Chris Johnson is pretty good example of it. Sure, 2010 was still an extremely good season (very similar to McCoy's terrible 2014 btw) but it was a huge drop from 09 and he's declined every year since.
Anyone find it hilarious when homers get so sensitive that they can't respond to posts critical of their team without crying about trolls?
isn't there a redskins thread where you can discuss all the first rounders your team gave up to get a scrawny injury prone wimp? Oh that's right. That's probably not a very popular subject amongst you guys.
####### kickers. Eta: here's another good one:
There may be. I think it's the same place where we talk about how many super bowls the eagles haven't won.isn't there a redskins thread where you can discuss all the first rounders your team gave up to get a scrawny injury prone wimp?

Actually, we talk about how crippling that was, and how disappointing it turned out, a lot. But this isn't the thread for that, so no need to lash out. We're here to talk about your team, so respond on topic, or ignore it. Which is the choice we'll have to make if you want to take this Redskins stuff to the Redskins thread. Otherwise, we're here to talk about Chip.isn't there a redskins thread where you can discuss all the first rounders your team gave up to get a scrawny injury prone wimp? Oh that's right.

Except he didn't decline every year. He wasn't given the same opportunity.
Can't stand people trying to make bad arguments with an extreme amount of unfounded self-confidence.
you're welcome to talk Eagles all you want. But if you troll like Hang10 was, you'll be quickly reminded that Riggins isn't coming back.Actually, we talk about how crippling that was, and how disappointing it turned out, a lot.

Haven't understood anything since. Interesting offseason for sure.
Oh wow, so now I'm stupid? You are the one that created strawman. The stats don't lie, robot.
Classic. You're trolling me but it's my fault I guess because I'm a redskins fan.you're welcome to talk Eagles all you want.

Edited that out because it was uncalled for. You're right though. RBs after their highest carry season of their career tend to be less productive. Insightful.
Why are you here? You always #### in team threads? Take it to the Demarco thread if you want to measure Richards.
It's not that insightful. I know that. See my initial exchange about it where I expressed I thought was common knowledge.
Why the Mathis move you think? Get younger on O-line and increase talent at WR or D?
Not trying to troll I'm genuinely curious as to what Eagles fans think. Are any of you worried that the moves to this point look and feel like something Washington would do?
Not really...
Murray had a higher YPC the year before with a crappy OLine. Chip didn't like Foles, plain and simple. Bradford is on a one year show me contract.
and the hype behind the Dallas OL is getting pretty funny. All i remember is they won that game against the Giants because for some reason the refs refused to call offensive holding a good 2-3 times on the last drive. And then the next week on Thanksgiving speaks for itself
I don't know and I'm willing to wait and see. He has the talent, Chip and a running game. If healthy (I know, I know) he could do very well this season.
Keep in mind this is the first off-season Kelly has purged the team from inherited players, which is what a lot of head coaches do when they take over a team. He played his 1st two seasons mainly with Andy Reid players (a team that went 12-20 in Reid's final 2 years).
I thought the Mathis-for-Stills rumor was kind of LOL when I first read it but I'm warming to the idea.
IMO there's only a few red flags. Coaches that are also wearing the GM hat can be a recipe for disaster. From watching The Redskins paying lots of 27ish year olds for work they did on another team doesn't work too much.
loved the Mccoy trade. Dumped a ton of salary and got a stud linebacker who only makes 1 million a year. Signing Murray for 3 million per year less than Mccoy is great. Not sure Matthews was neccesary, but I think Chip is just thinking of rotating fresh backs while the speed of the offense wears out defenses. Loved the Maxwell signing. So so on Thurman. Not sold on the Bradford trade. While I think he's better than Foles, his durability scares me.
But you see, that's where I disagree. While you're right coaches like to get "their guys" on the team but I can't think of another situation where a coach shipped off such a young talented nucleus like Chip has. McCoy, Jackson and Maclin were productive before he got there and even MORE productive in his offense. Not even mentioning Foles. To most outsiders it's just baffling. That's the main reason I've posted in this thread and it's not because I'm trolling. I'm fascinated by the whole thing.
Well like said about McCoy, he didn't like running from the shotgun and Chip runs the shotgun something like 95% of the time. He brought in the top 2 from the 'gun.
