Ok the game was embarrassing! We got beat every which way possible, the 2 yard passes on 4th and 4 are ridiculous. But it is only one loss to a team that is clearly better than everyone else. I wish we made some adjustments but you can't win when your QB fumbles three times. I wish we watched some Film and covered Varbel on the goal line or blocked him for that matter. We didn't adjust at halftime they just took what was there all game. The only way to look at this is WE HAVE TO BEAT THE JETS.
We got killed and how we respond is important. The coaches have to look at themselves and this next game will tell alot. So lets just move on and see what we have to do to beat the Jets and go to 5-3.
What do we need to do and should we consider replacing Wade? I don't think it would have been that bad if he didn't get torched over and over. While we didn't play that well you can make an argument that our line played well with the exception of Wade, Campbell seemed to have time and they weren't getting a rush up the middle or on samuels side. Wade was just getting smoked all game and only 1 person was hitting our QB.

I agree, we must win. Luckily the Jets blow, so it'll be an easy win.
We'll find out what the team is really made of this week. After an ass kicking like that you either come out pissed off as all hell or you curl up in a ball and suck your thumb. It's gut check time for the players and coaches.

Wade is clearly not a nfl caliber starter. Fabini is clearly not a nfl starter. They are not doing well. Run blocking is a major issue and pass protection is not their strong point either.
Our "backups" should be a little better than this. I don't expect them to jump right in and be no bumps in the road, but you've got to be better than what they are. Maybe the fact that we haven't had a draft in about 5 years could be contributing factor.
Anyways, the Jets are next and our offense has got to do something. The offense is really bad, often. They are good occasionally. If the "O" can't get it together we may not win another 4 games. I believe this week is a season changer. I have no idea what to expect out of the skins at this point.

I think this is the game where Portis can get his first 100 yard game of the season.

Great post...
This is our 2nd "Must Win" game. We have to beat the Jets...and preferably beat the shit out of them. We need to get into late '06 form... and just run the ball, stop the run, and catch them cheating with the play action.

Are you kidding me? Have you watched the Redskins for the last like 15 years. There are no easy wins.

Hopefully we can bust through the line and Knock Pennington Out,But we need to stop that west cost-short pass-1 check down Pass= First DOWN every time Crap.The D needs to step up Big time because after yesterday if we get into the playoffs god willing, the Superbowl, Odds are The Pats or the Colts' will be on the other side and we cant match up with them playing like this.I can totally see us as The ravens,Defense does win Championships,Cause The offense isnt working right now.

I heard the reason Gibbs did not get made at Belichick for running up the score was beacause Belichick was going to give Gibbs some game film on the Jets before he left town

I know the offensive line is missing two starters but can our offense be anymore boring? Im not just saying this because we got shalacked but other than Detriot what other game have we excelled on the offensive side of the ball? Were are our two running backs that some thought were the best tandem in the league? When do we start to point fingers at the coaches? Joe, Al?
