Redskins-Giants Postgame Thoughts

We were saying the exact opposite of that at the end of 2004.

Yeah, isn't it something. The defense was playing great that year and the offense sucked. Hopefully that's good news in that it won't take long to get that defense turned around. I think Williams will have a lot to prove next season, I think that big contract extension maybe went to his head.

There, fixed #1 for ya.

And I solidly agree on #4. That was disgusting and classless.

As for my thoughts, well i don't have much. The defense blows unlike anything i have ever seen. They blow epic proportions. If Gregg Williams doesn't learn something from this, then maybe it's time to find someone else to fix the defense.

Also, I really, really, cannot emphasize this enough, do not want to see us go out in free agency and spend spend spend and fail to produce results. I am sick and tired of us being the laughingstock of the NFL during the spring. Gibbs needs to start building through the draft. That also cannot be emphasized enough. We're not playing to win a Superbowl now, we're back to square 1, and it's time to start rebuilding.

One more thing, I like Ladell Betts and all, but he needs to learn how to hang onto the ball. I'm gonna be glad to see Portis back there next year.
But how are we supposed to build through the draft with only one pick in the first three rounds? I agree with you--but this team's player personnel philosophy obviously does not value the draft. They prefer the FA approach--and I expect them to fire up Redskin One the first day of free agency...

I've constantly defended MLB Marshall, but I've defected to the anti-Marshall camp and think we need some new blood while retaining Marshall as an OLB or backup MLB.

MLB Patrick Willis anyone? He's projected as a late first rounder and is versatile and is a vocal leader (something we need on D). I'd love to trade down to nab Willis and pick up a 2nd rounder to get a Dlineman or DB.

ya think? or how about that million dollar bonus he gets if hes not named the head coach if gibbs retires?

No, but with another CB not named Kenny Wright or "Odie" Jimoh, you have the confidence to put them on an island more frequently while stacking the line (especially when playing a QB like Eli).


This is true, but herein is my biggest gripe with Williams' scheme. It seems as though too much depends on one or two guys. It seems like other defenses compensate well when one or two starters go down for the year. It's not a dramatic drop off. The Giants have been nicked up all season long. Even the Cowboys lost Greg Ellis, one of their top guys, and they survived. Same with the Eagles.

I'm telling you, I just don't buy if he had a shut down corner or a stud this or that, everything changes. We'll have to wait and see.

cut holdman
move marshall to weak side
move rocky to strong side
get lance briggs and put him at MLB

Yeah i'm done defending Marshall this year too. He played good last year but this year has played pretty poorly. I would like to see move to backup outside linebacker though, he is definitely better than Holdman on the outside and would be a good backup.

Postgame Thoughts?

I THINK Betts needs to stop fumbling before he does it in a big game.
