yeah I hate that mentality as well. I'm a Mariners fan and that was a lot of the talk after the 2001 season. That has been the worst franchise of any sport since that year. So many boneheaded moves made.
one word on this board will start a half year debate , "PATIENCE " . we need to be frugal with draft picks and make sure we sign younger FA's with upside

Haskins is not a check down QB like Alex. His strength is throwing the ball downfield. You are right, we do need to design an offensive scheme for Haskins that plays to his strengths. Unfortunately this is a difference scheme than what Turner designs for Alex. In any event, no matter who the QB, we have to find a way to get the ball more into McLaurin's hands. I get that he is being double teamed, but all great receivers are double teamed and teams still find a way to get them the ball.
take a look at the "haskins should start" thread and watch that film breakdown by JT o sullivan . a lot of our blocking schemes for him were awful and that is what i am talking about mostly . its a fair assessment but DH screwed up as well and its pointed out

mac should get more balls his way

The question is were the blocking schemes supposed to be adjusted by Haskins or not? This is pretty standard now, it wouldn’t surprise me if he missed some of these himself. Not uncommon for a rookie, but DH is no longer a rookie.

Just saw where Alex, Gibson and Everett are out this week. This is DH’s real opportunity for redemption. He is running out of opportunities.

Yep
Mariners last went to the playoffs in 2001
Yep and understood. Live in the NW and without question the O's franchise has been brutal. The Mariners have at least been competitive and add talent to it's roster. PA refuses to pay to field a competitive team year after year.

sooner or later DH has to turn potential into production here in DC . i feel the fan base is frustrated with him because he has the tools and the smarts to be effective but he is a 18 yr old mature wise which is holding him back
