were calling Mike Macdonald as he was heading to Seattle to see if he was still interested. No matter how they eventually spin it,
#HTTC
missed on their top 2 choices for Head Coach.
Once
#Redskins
make a Trent Williams move they’ll have close to $73M in Cap Space (per
@Jason_OTC
). Will also be getting a comepensatory pick for Jamison Crowder, so should have 8 picks heading into the NFL Draft. Huge couple of months. Gotta like where they are.

From
@nflnetwork
here’s former NFL Exec Scott Pioli - who was Asst. GM in Atlanta when Dan Quinn was Head Coach - reacting to the
#Commanders
bringing in all the QBs at once…
“I’m not surprised at all… absolutely everything with Dan Quinn was about a competition”
#HTTC
The
#Commanders
are an early 6-pt underdog next Sunday in Seattle, but historically they’ve played well there in the past. Washington is (7-1) All-Time in Seattle in the Regular Season (0-2 in the Playoffs). Their only Regular Season loss in Seattle was in Wk 3 in 1998.

Re-watching
#Commanders
win in New England. 2 throws from Howell really stood out to me. Just a beautiful ball down the middle on the Dotson TD. And this 3rd & 8 deep throw down the left sideline to Terry - falling backwards while being hit - is one not every QB can make.
#HTTC
Two former Linebackers in charge of the
#Commanders
Defense the past 4 years never could get that position right. Adam Peters and Dan Quinn fixed it in 3 days…
#HTTC
Been hearing a lot in recent days about who the
#Commanders
#HTTC
should take with the 2nd pick in the
#NFLDraft
. Here’s what LSU Coach Brian Kelly had to say about QB Jayden Daniels on ‘Path To The Draft’ Wednesday night on
@nflnetwork
The
#Commanders
new coaching staff and new ownership having an immediate impact in Free Agency. Tom Pelissero (NFL Network) said LB Bobby Wagner told him that Dan Quinn, Ken Norton Jr. and Magic Johnson were among the reasons why he chose to sign in Washington.
#HTTC
👀 6 weeks would be Week 16 - which means Aaron Rodgers thinks he could be back when the Jets face the
#Commanders
on Christmas Eve Dec. 24th in New York.
#HTTC
Asked about playing on Thanksgiving Day - Rivera’s response was “Just the fact that it’ll be a couple extra days to relax a little bit”.
That’s it… That’s all he had…
Way to bring the energy Ron…Really inspiring stuff there…

fans being excited about his trade to DC - Alex Smith said “In the past couple of weeks, even though it’s unofficial, you know I’ve always heard about Skins fans and felt like I’ve run into them everywhere and felt their energy so excited for that as well.”
Alex Smith joined us today on

during our coverage of

Smith said “Excited about that, yeah absolutely. The new opportunity, new challenge...don’t take it for granted and excited to get to work.”
Don Shula not only played for the

(3 INTs in 1957) he drafted
@Theismann7
in the 4th Round (99th pick overall) of the 1971

. After playing in the CFL, Joe was acquired by the Redskins in 1974 for a 1st Rd pick.

For those who think these wins are “meaningless”, I sure hope you saw

postgame interview

LB Nate Orchard... If not, find it - then get back to me on how worthless these wins are...
#HTTR
The
#Redskins
have a tough task at Green Bay Sunday. Haven’t won at Lambeau since Jay Schroeder threw a pair (to Ricky Sanders/Kelvin Bryant) in a 16-7 win in 1986. Last Road Win vs Packers was 1988 in Milwaukee 20-17. (Doug Williams 2 TDs - to Monk and Bryant)
#HTTR
The new owner is down there today. Hope he’s soaking this all in. You’re being humiliated on one of your sports biggest stages. They’re yuckin’ it up on the Dallas sideline at your expense. Your new team is a laughing stock. What are you gonna do?

Kirk Cousins so far this season:
2nd in NFL is Passing Yards
3rd in Yds per Game
5th in Yds/Attempt
6th in Completions
7th in Passer Rating
7th in Completion %
T7th in TD Passes
8th in QBR

Montez Sweat’s production in Chicago is yet another indictment of Ron Rivera and the failures of the defensive coaching staff in Washington.
#Commanders
#HTTC
Jay Gruden with
@granthpaulsen
and
@funnydanny
today on
@1067theFan
didn’t flinch when asked if the
#Commanders
#HTTC
should pay up to keep Daron Payne with Jon Allen - “I wouldn’t hesitate to do it at all…I think defensive lineman win games for ya, especially two dominant ones”
Well, Ron just told
@JunksRadio
on
@1067theFan
that neither Taylor Heinicke nor Kyle Allen travelled yet to Philly. They’d have to get them there last minute if either were cleared to play tonight. Obviously a short trip and doable, but still interesting.
#WashingtonFootball
I’m not interested in a ‘Process’ nor do I have any patience after 32 years. There is a path toward a quick turnaround in the
#NFL
- lots of draft picks and tons of Salary Cap space. The
#Commanders
can check both boxes now. Time to get to work.
#HTTC
They’re pulling turkey legs out of the pot with 6 minutes to go? Extremely disrespectful of the
#Commanders
and they fully deserve it. They’ve earned it. And now the Pick-6.
They’ve become an absolute embarrassment. It cannot be tolerated any longer.
#HTTC
Ron said in his presser today “everybody is learning, understanding and growing”. Huh? They’re on track for the worst of his 4 seasons in Washington… We should be way past the learning and understanding and growing stage by now don’t you think?
#Commanders
#HTTC
What an absolute embarrassment of a disaster.
Can’t be tolerated…
Clean house…
Purge the building… Now…
Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!

Season’s first general manager hire: Commanders are hiring 49ers’ assistant GM Adam Peters as their general manager, sources tell ESPN.
Peters won Super Bowls while working in New England and Denver, and has been in SF since 2017, helping build one of the NFL’s top rosters.
Honestly, a hell of a 1st day of
#NFL
Free Agency for the
#Commanders
. Nice to see them functioning as a competent, well run football franchise again. Keeping the lights on late in Ashburn too!
#HTTC
The fact the
#Commanders
new braintrust has to be so active in signing solid, NFL caliber players to build the roster speaks volumes about the Rivera Regime’s football incompetence. I’m guessing no one will be asking Ron about that during his TV tryouts…
#HTTC
If there was any doubt before, I think tonight’s game at least seals the fate of both Ron the Coach and Ron the GM. Neither deserves another chance in 2024…
#Commanders

Great to be back for another year. New owner, new era, new season, new QB. I’ll get you set for the season-opener starting at 8am with ‘Countdown to Kickoff’ on

What an absolute embarrassment of a disaster.

What better way to get you set for Dallas on Thanksgiving Day - Going to hear from Riggo next on ‘Countdown To Kickoff’ on

#WashingtonFootball
Watching the
#Redskins
tonight I just keep hearing a Jay Gruden quote from this week over and over in my head:
"I do have a game plan! I just haven’t figured it out yet.”
So with all the Quarterback talk this week in Washington and speculation on what the
#Commanders
may eventually do -
@spotrac
puts Taylor Heinicke’s Market Value on his next contract at $19.7M per season (3 years/$59.1M) Wow! Wasn’t expecting that…
#HTTC
Just saw the Josh Norman interview on
@NFLTotalAccess
@nflnetwork
. Didn’t have much to say in response to Jay Gruden’s comments about him at the League Meetings, but certainly didn’t seemed too pleased that he was called out.
#Redskins
#HTTR
For a young group of players that will be the core of this franchise moving forward, there’s no such thing as a meaningless win or a worthless win. This is a really good win for the
#Redskins
#HTTR
Man, was the
@EBJunkies
#WashingtonFootball
frustrations segment with
@chaddukes
Monday afternoon on
@1067theFan
ever a good one. They speak for a lot of us in DC. A big chunk of that is getting replayed Sunday morning on ‘Countdown To Kickoff’.
Man is
@chaddukes
ever spot on today
@1067theFan
. An unlikely win to stay in the playoff hunt - and still so much complaining from so many
#Redskins
fans. The folks who moaned about the team giving up are doing the exact same thing now themselves. Just enjoy the ride.
#HTTR
Josh Harris’ statement on his meeting with Ron saying “He (meaning Rivera) recommended that the team make changes “. Like Ron had an epiphany after getting destroyed in Dallas.
Sure he did…
