2 Qualms with the loss

1) Not going for it on 4th and 1 and missing that 50 yarder. I guess hindsight is 20/20, but I felt we really should have thought about that with a "nothing to lose" attitude.

2)Giving up FOUR long bombs to TO, 3 of them were pretty much the exact same play. I realize ST wasn't there and all, but GW is a smart man and our players are decent enough to not get beat by the same player the same way 3 times. I really wouldn't mind Witten or Crayton getting a big TD over the middle, but you can't leave TO that open so many times. This really falls on GW. I am sure with ST back that will be less of an issue, but still it is unacceptable.

Point two really hurts me just because I know GW is better than that. On a whole I am just hurt because I know we could have won the game. My hat is off to JC for an awesome game and for Saunders/Gibbs for growing a pair and letting JC do more in the offense. We should run no-huddle more in beginning of the game.


Also please NO Debbie-downers. I do not mean for this to be a pessimistic thread. No "Gibbs/GW should be fired" "we suck" etc etc. And if you want to mention another point, just back it up. I will negative reputation the hell out of you guys if you ruin this thread by being pessimistic and posting crap :). That is all.

Well, we stayed away from shooting ourselves in the foot for the most part, minus that pass interferance penalty. We could have beat a better team because of it. Can't really complain about injuries, shit happens.

I'm gonna get alot of heat.. BUT I don't blame the coaches for the skins' loss...

instead:

Campbell: key interception late in the game which basically lost it for us..
Suisham: missing the field goal that would have made the deficit 2 points (and we would have kicked a field goal..
Secondary: Player mistakes NOT the scheme led TO to a big game..

Yeah with the exception of the 50 yard attempt I have no problems with how the coaches managed the game. In fact I thought they managed the clock exceptionally.

Please elaborate, because to me, the coaches fall for this one for letting 1 player beat your deep 4 times. Unacceptable. Why not double him with a safety at all times? Sure it leaves others open, but by that point you have to pick your poision, and if the goal of the defensive gameplan is to stop TO I would say GW got a F.

I don't think clock management was too bad. I just wish we went for it on, rather than kicking a tough FG. It was 1 yard and we have to play Dallas with an "all-in" mentality.

Decent would be a real big upgrade. Decent pro athletes if our safties other than Landry deserve this distinction make big money and when they look this bad I honestly think the should be deducted one paycheck for sucking. IMO.

Oh and like I posted plenty in the game thread we played very good today mostly.

I agree, if I were a manager I would so do that. Then again, no one is going to want to play for me lol...

Dallas is just on fire right now, but i do think if we had ST we would have won! JC looks better and better every game
