Redskins receiver Terry McLaurin said the "Scary Terry" nickname is OK but there are others he's liked better —one in particular that is about speed. He also says he's a simple guy who doesn't need one. https://t.co/EGSPMt5hZg pic.twitter.com/gYtf9NegoK

Watching @nflnetwork right now. @PSchrags just reported that Trent Williams is not going anywhere and wont be traded.

Not trading Trent Williams for draft picks would be malpractice. It would be inexcusable and unforgivable not to trade him.

Callahan says of Ereck Flowers “he’s come a long way in a short period of time... he could be one of the top guards in the league.” My two cents: the angst that he would be a big issue was misplaced. He’s been fine and at times good. Far from the issue on O.

Callahan: “Craig Reynolds is an interesting player. ... We wanted to see more consistency and he’s shown that in the last month-and-a half.”

I swear I wish y'all could hear B-Mitch right now. Said Kyle and Mike were very good play designers, but Kyle started a lot of stuff behind the scenes, then leaned on his "daddy" to clean it up. So remember this when some of y'all are egging Kyle on to clown the #Redskins. #HTTR

Wonder if Bill Callahan likes him as much as Jay Gruden did. #Redskins been working out RBs as of late and Callahan wants to run the rock. https://t.co/K7bVz1bYoq

— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) October 17, 2019

Have no idea what Bill Callahan thinks of Perine...Obviously, Jay Gruden said he loved him every chance he got.

My guess considering the Callahan-Gruden friction is this will be a no, but can't say for sure. https://t.co/LRsCZEP6NW

Jalen Ramsey being praised by former players on the Fox pregame show. Nothing about his act is cute or admiral. Ask his former teammates in Jacksonville.

From showing up in a brinks truck to faking injuries. He's an unprofessional goose. Shame he got rewarded for his nonsense.

There are 23 QBs who threw at least 100 passes both last year and this year. 3 of those QBs switched teams in the offseason.

The graph below shows the average air yards these QBs have gained on completed passes in 2018 (X-Axis) and 2019 (Y-Axis).

We can’t blame it all on the refs. Lack of practice time & the idea that coaching is all schemes & plays has led to a breakdown in fundamentals. Lots of procedural penalties, jerseys being grabbed & bad technique. You don’t see Patriots with huge penalty numbers. Coaching matters https://t.co/ntiFIu1Xs2
