I caught part of the Redskins vs Bengals game last night (in the DC market), and despite a nice deep TD pass (definitely a pretty ball under duress), I thought majority of his night was "meh." I'm not sure if it was because he doesn't have a lot of talent around him or not, but his passes just seem less accurate than I expected.
Final stats:
7/14 - 114 yards - 1 TD
55 of the 114 yards were from that TD pass.
No mention of his sack/fumble? He better get used to it with Flowers protecting him.

I didn't catch the sack/fumble, as I only caught part of the game when he was in. I did manage to see the TD pass, and yes, the DB did stumble and the pass seemed to be short.
The corner getting beat and stumbling doesn't explain why the ball was under thrown.

Of course, it could be that the ball slipped from his sweaty mitts.

Big Blue Insecurity at its finest
Hehe
Great call. Second good game in a row for Finley.
Still not a fan of Mr. Haskins, but he deserves some kudos...
There were dudes in the media who have no credit to Jones because he faced some 2nd stringers and the pass "should have been picked."
...cannot make!
Pressure was right in his face and he had nowhere to step up but he flicked that ball effortlessly!
Very impressive toss.
He made a great deep throw TD with the pressure nearly getting there.
But 3 TO's in limited action over 2 games... not very good, just not very impressed by Haskins. He reminds me of Jameis Winston a little. He probably can sling it a little better than Jameis can but I never saw either as Franchise QB's.
Hilarious!
Flowers: This is not the quarterback you want to sack.... /waves hand in front of Defensive Ends face.
I guess the force is not with him....

That could be an interesting comp. But I don’t think Haskins is as reckless as Winston...on and off the field.
He has a bad tendency to miss high. Yes, he has a great arm, that has never been in doubt.
I actually spent more time watching Flowers on the OL. I don't know that I ever actually saw him push a defender back.
So Hasking looked better than the rookie Aikman.
what i saw was a QB who is terrible in the pocket.
there were a couple of times where it looked like he could escape some pressure and he was stuck in the mud. IMO he is going to have an issue with pressure
Not for nothing, but I think many of you need to change your BBI handles to Cris Carter...
But the rest of his game being a little sluggish also shows. We’ll see how well he does but he looks to be more of a throwback pocket passer than the modern NFL QB who can move around more.

We're all happy for you.

Not sure how that actually fits. Carter would have called is a miracle pass from a future Hall of Famer. Right before he called Daniel Jones the shits with CB's being paid off not to cover his pass attempts as part of some overarching conspiracy to make white QB's look better.
What does Eli have to do with this? Everybody remembers Eli was bad as a rookie. It's 2019 and football is a completely different game geared towards helping the offense. QBs now shouldn't be compared to QB from 15+ years ago.

This is just such an ironic post. The pass was 45 yards in the air and hit the WR perfectly in stride, and Haskins made this pass while under extremely heavy pressure.
The corner just got beat but the ball was not even close to underthrown. It was simply a great play by Haskins.
The way you criticized Haskins in that post is exactly the BS Cris Carter did with Jones.

Probably because it was incorrectly and unartfully presented.
It's a great throw by Haskins but a bad play by the Bengals' LB.

Well damn, he definitely got me if that's the case.

Rumor is that Haskins feels like he should just have the job and doesn't hit the playbook. Poor study habits is what I was told.
I've heard the exact opposite Joey... truth must lie in the middle :)

Depending on where you heard it from. Was it from a station or newspaper that Daniel Snyder owns?

Stuff like this is the vibe that I was getting and didn't like around draft time.
I was one of the bigger Haskins people here before that... and I still think he has the tools to be pretty good if he can get his feet right. He's a talented kid and he's bright. I think with the right coaching and dedication, he can be quite good.
But, there also seemed to be a small sense of entitlement and I think I'm just more sensitive to it now after what we dealt with with Beckham and some of the other guys who passed through here during what has been a very miserable stretch for us.
Jones might be great, he might suck, he will likely fall somewhere in between that vast scope of outcomes... but one thing I am certain of is that he has the right mindset for this city and this position. He will handle it much like Eli has for so long and we will never have to worry about Jones' work ethic or anything but football with him.
I don't think Haskins is a bad kid - he's not a criminal. I don't think anything like that. There's just a vibe with him that made me recoil a bit. Fairly or not.
Also, why are we analyzing pre-season?
throw just as he was being sacked .
Same with Jones he looked very good but have not seen
him under pressure and it's still pre-season .
