Is Football getting frustrating to anyone else?

Turn off the tv and stop bitching.
hahaha, i wonder when coach Gibbs went from air coreyll(sp) to ultra conservative? those good teams always used to take shots down the field. now, we take one a game. i thought our line play was pretty good yesterday. its almost like they are telling Campbell to look, and if its not there immediately, check down. lets throw it deep, and let our receivers make a play

My expectations of the skins and what is reality just don't match up I guess. 5-3 is good, if the Giants and Cowboys weren't 7-1 & 6-2

I understand this thread b/c it is frustrating watching the skins play football. It's almost like groundhog day. We did alot of good things today, no doubt. We won on the road which is not easy even against a 1-7 team.

However, unless everyone out there is happy being slightly above average we're going to have to learn how to score some points. We got away w/ it today w/ an exceptional running game. To be a super bowl contender we've got to start trying to score some points. It's kind of funny, in the 1st half inside the 10 our jumbo package came in...guess what....run stuffed. It's not that it was a bad call its that we always do that and the opponent knew what was coming. These are games where you've got to "get things going" offensively to carry on to other games.

I really am happy w/ the win but i'm unhappy w/ the overall direction of this offense right now. Let Al Saunder have control of this offense. He doesn't right now, period.

It is somewhat fustrating to watch this offense at times. But again we won...whats the problem? It wasnt pretty enough for some? I would rather have a ugly win than a pretty loss. Thats as cut and dry as it can be said.

5-3 is good. I guess I am tired of hearing about the three losses, instead of the five wins. And i guess what I was getting at with this thread is I am tired of watchingmy teams lose (Indians). And, the computer doesn't bitch back at me like my wife does.

We do hear about the 5 wins, when people try to discount them as games we should have lost.

Very true but as people have tried to say in the past it is not how many points you win by but if you win at all.

I agree. While I also understand the posts about how we should look at the positive side of things (i.e.-comebacks, etc.), this thread is simply asking the question if we're getting frustrated with Redskins football. My answer, and pretty much has been my answer for say...oh the last 15 years, is yes. Does this mean I don't fully support our team? Of course not. But you've got to see it for what it really is, and folks it ain't always pretty. I watched the Indy vs. Pats game last night and that my friend was a football game filled with excitement. The coaches coached and the players executed. That is what I miss the most: Competitive, hard fought, well executed football games with intensity. It has just been a common occurance about every mid-season that I am watching our team look very average to just plain poor. Yet, every year I re-subscribe to the NFL Ticket and my family joins me to huddle around the tube every Sunday to watch the team we love the most and hope that someday soon that they'll finally get it right. We'll continue to soldier on but more often times than not it does get frustrating.

win or lose....the skins always give me a heart attack.....and that cant be healty.

I'm just glad they won!

I don't know if it is just me, but I hated todays game, for obvious reasons. I told my wife all we would do is kick field goals. I hated watching Tom Brady come back and win, and now I hate watching The Cowboys. Football is Frustrating, we don't have an offense, I it seems like I am watching the same painful Redskin football game that I have been watching the last three years.

i thought this sunday was a great day of football. skins show determination to win, portis blows up for 196 yards, colts-pats played it to the end but yeah watching the cowboys look good sucked.

OUR OFFENSE IS RUNNING THE BALL EARLY AND OFTEN, CONTROLLING THE CLOCK, PROTECTING THE BALL, LETTING OUR D MAKE PLAYS, then in the second half when the opponent is stacking the box we hit em up for long play action passes, by the beginning of the 4th quarter their front 4 is battered and tired and we start busting off big runs to kill the clock and put our opponent to sleep. it is a beautiful thing to watch when we do it well!

go skins!
