Calling all skins fans!!!

[nfchamp1]

LET'S NOT SUCK LIKE OUR PLAYERS AND COACHES DID TODAY. Let us do the unexpected. Let's not pile on, now they are down. The press is going to do enough of that. Let us surprise our friendly Dallas fans at work and gloating talking heads and support OUR team. Let us be the best fans there are. The players and coaches feel awful right now. Let us surprise them and actually cheer them instead of booing. Let us do this, not because they deserve it but because we are not PHILLY FAN.

[Monkfan63]

The Skins players quit in the 1st half. Why shouldn't we quit on them?

[NOLASKINSFAN]

Class out of ES?... not gonna happen. Most of these guys are as fair weather as you get.

[Hitman#21]

Hey, they just gotta show that they care thats all im asking for, not make it look like there out there just to make there check and thats it.Im sick of it.Ill still be rooting for the redskins till the bitter end

[Gracelander]

Sorry OP, can't deal with any rah rah speeches right now.

[gca61087]

dude, they suck. i'll still root for em, but for the first time in a long time i won't be going out to watch their games. i'll either be watching on stattracker or online somewhere.

[bluecrab]

I'll always root for the Redskins, but right now, they suck. That includes the owner down to the Water boy. This whole organization is a circus.

[s0crates]

I always have and always will supoort the 'skins, but this is rock bottom. If somebody ask my opinion I will tell them the truth, we are a pathetic joke of a football team. I hope somebody TPs Zorn's yard.

Yeah, let's all just support these players.....players that quit. Dan Synder should be lambasted by us fans.

Right now, we are all angry and IMO rightly so. I haven't given up on the season yet and I think supporting them when they are down will help more than booing will, especially given the week after St. Louis. I don't think they quit. For whatever reason, they didn't play with much sense of urgency until it was too late. I'm starting to think we are not as good as I've thought we were or our coaching on both sides just stinks.

Our 1st round college defensive player of the year should just chase QBs and not receivers and TEs down the field.

[Storm]

what have you been smoking?

[loren]

GREAT THREAD!

I don't think the OP would argue that the Redskins don't suck. It's pretty clear to everyone with eyes and a TV they do.

But hey, let's actually be FANS of the team. After all, I'm sure they know how much they suck as we do. So instead of booing and being down, let's be supportive. After all, if you can't do that, what's the point of rooting for a team?

Great thread.

bingo

[chunks64]

That is the dumbest thing i have ever heard. They deserve to be booed and until they show me that they can play to the level that they should. If i worked as bad as they do i would be gone in a heart beat so forget respecting them. They have to earn my respect back

WTF are you talking about? We just lost to the worst team in the NFL (after barely beating the 2nd worst team in the NFL) how are you so positive? Zoloft? Lithium? Jesus ****ing Christ, I think some fans would be happy with this team no matter what the **** they did.

[SnyderMustGo]

Yeah, lets go tell everyone how "WE ARE #1" after we just lost to a team who couldn't win a game since 2008.

Yeah, let's be complete morons and claim to be good.

[The Mayor]

Sorry. I want to be be the "good" fan. But the team sucks. No 2 ways about it. It's the truth.

[loren]

Who claimed the Skins were good? Read the first post. The guy's just saying maybe instead of piling on, we should try to give them a homefield advantage next Sunday instead reinforcing the negativity.

[nfchamp1]

@Mayor. I started by saying they suck. Believe me when I tell you this is the lowest I have felt as a fan. I'm not suggesting the team doesn't suck but I am going to work tomorrow with my head held high and will not give the gloating haters the satisfaction they will be looking for. I'll be the guy in Redskins gear.

[Fan035]

They've had my allegiance for over 60 years. No more.......until the team is worthy of my respect.

[carolinaskinsfreak]

Hey i will and always have pulled for them.....also i have waited for this new owner to let the football experts do their job. Don't snyder learn from his peers? Lets get back to some glory days for years to come! Lets be feared and once again!!!!!1

[grantarchy]

For me, it's less about the players than it is the ownership. It is difficult to support futility year after year.

[cubanl81]

The worse part about it was. I knew after the 1st quarter we were going to lose. Kinda sad when you think that so early in the game against the 0-19 Lions. I still bleed burgundy & gold. But I can't say I'm proud to be a Skins fan right now.

You can go to your job held high. But everybody will just think your crazy no offense lol. We lost to the Lions no way around that one. Just gotta go in and take the punches.

REAL fans demand better.

[Mursilis]

No TRUE fan should even be at the game next Sunday. If you go, you're only rewarding and supporting mediocrity. You're saying "Go ahead, don't even try!! I'm coming to the games anyway!! You don't have to earn my money - I'll just give it to you!!" Blind fans are bad fans.

[youngestson]

I'll always root for the team. At this point of my life I can't change, but I'm disgusted with this organization right now.

It's not as though they are actually building something. Then I could deal with losses and growing pains. This is just an organization stuck in a morass because its ownership has not been able to get its collective heads out of their holes for a decade now.

I know this game is just one, but we've been heading towards the bottom for some time now and that grating sound you can hear is the bottom. Sadly I have no confidence that anything will be done other then bring in a retread coach with a big name who will insist on being the GM as well, even though that never works. Then money will be thrown at one or two players who will be used incorrectly and given little supporting cast around them. Two years later it will be repeated.

[Zombie4Skins]

Um.......In point of fact, the Lions actually hadn't won a game since 2007, not 2008.

That is until they beat the Redskins.

[loren]

REAL fans demand better.

HAHAHA

Right!

Demand all you want, you'll get the same thing because you have no actual position of power within the team. I guess I just think it's better to not drown myself in negativity over a game. Whatever.

That's the first time I've ever been accused of not being a "REAL" fan because I stick with my time through thick and thin. Weird!

Really? Are you really this dumb, or are you joking? How does showing up to a game and being loyal make you anything BUT a real fan?

[thesubmittedone]

HAHAHA

Loren, there's no point right now. It's just too early and hard right now on everybody. Let them vent and complain. Maybe you can talk some sense into them after a few days, just not now... lol, you're wasting your time. ;)

This loss hurts real bad no matter how we slice it.

[BleedinBurgNGold]

Dang... I dont know what has to happen before some stop making excuses and act like nothing happened. I will Bleed Burgundy and Gold till the day I die, But act like we are not a disaster? Cant do that.

[Probos]

Listen. I will continue to root for the Skins. They are my team.

But this team is not good right now, and I doubt they will get much better as the season goes on.

I also support the team,....but I'll call it like I see it.

[Mursilis]

HAHAHA

Right!

Every fan has power over this team - it doesn't exist without the fan's money.

[alwaysaskin]

I'm not drunk enough for rah rah speeches right now. So when is the big ES riot? I will always be a fan, but right now, I am looking for paper bags

[JLU44]

This has to be one of the worst performances I've seen from a Redstinks team in a while. However, what alarms me most is that I think it's just the beginning of the nightmare to come. If you look carefully, it's quite obvious ZORN took over a play-off bound team and with the bold strokes of Vinnie Cerrato (via the last 2 NFL drafts) they've successfully took the ship off course and are now headed on a downward spiral. Zorn came to D.C. on the strength of being an Offensive Coordinator, so where's the offense? Wait, even better where's the General Manager? Oh, that's right.........Danny and Vinnie don't think we need one!

[Soup]

It looks like it over for the season. These few games were the easy part of the schedule. I wonder when this is going to change

Yeah your right.Lets go team!!!!!We're number 1.
Ok now back to reality.
I do feel what your saying and respect your effort.But nahhhh.
The coaches should feel like :pooh: and the players have quit.
They need to win us back to supporting them 100%.
I'll still be a fan in the morning.Just a fan whos expecting to lose every week from here on out.

[Phat Hog]

Well, I have always been and will always be a Skins fan, but today was one of the most embarrassing moments I have experienced as a fan. I can understand a loss to the Giants, but the Lions?
