I know, I am going to be there. The Lions hung in there with the Vikes til the 3rd quarter with a rook QB. Guess what? They scored more points against one of the better Ds in the league than we scored 3 FGs against probably the worst.

And we were playing at home. Imagine that performance in St. Louis. That fumble in the Rams red zone was huge.

The Pats only put up 9 pts too...I know they need points, my biggest issue is individual mistakes and playcalling...don't hate for the sake of hating.

Piss off. Do you think the Pats would score 9 points against the Rams playing at home?

It's majorly apparent that the team has trouble scoring, especially from with in 10 yrds. I presume it's cause the field is smaller, so why not take a delay of game penalty back up 5 yrds and give your WR's and TE more space to work with?

JC also needs to learn how to finess the ball into his players hands. Everything he does with the ball is with brute force. When your lined up inside the 5 yrd line you don't blast a ball at your catchers.

I just don't see the Skins being a contender. I'm sorry. Yet another game of not putting up points. Especially against a team were we had the 10 point spread. Not getting to 20 or more points.

This week the Eagles got 20, Carolina who got beat by Dallas last week put up another 20 points, NO who we play later put up 40 against the Eagles.

We are just another mediocre team again as I see it.

Unfortunately after game #2 I have to say it is looking like a replay of last season with the lack of offensive production. Again it is mindboggling with the talent we possess on offense that we can only manage 9 points against a crap team. I am confident we can handle the Lions, just on the Stafford rookie effect alone, but it is going to be a good game nonetheless.

Ya know...this may be the best thing that could have happened...get the win against the Rams but scare the crap out of the team to let them know they must make some serious changes to compete against above average teams.
I hope Zorn considers handing off play calling

I agree! Zorn's play calling is just terrible. He needs to find someone else to call them and do it quickly.

I don't doubt the defense will make it extremely difficult for Detroit but I honestly see them putting up 20+ points and us not. Especially at this point.

True, but then again the Jets are a team on the rise, while the Rams are on the decline/rebuilding mode track.

The Lions have the potential to do that, but Stafford forces the ball like a typical rook trying to make something happen. Our LBs are solid and can shut down Kevin Smith. My only worry is Calvin Johnson smokes Rogers and Stafford hits him for some big ones. Lions D is not the best but they get the job done if their offense gives them some help with scoring or at least some long drives.

By the way, since I know a lot of people are in this thread and not the offensive line depth thread, Redskins report says Randy Thomas is out for the season with the tricep injury.

what got me about zorn was the trick play call on 3 and goal from the 10. right there snyder should've came down on the sideline and fired him. then the 4th down call at the end of the game. all the screen passes. he simply has to go. enough of this already.

i agree,and i dont see how anybody on here is ok with the call to go for it on 4th down,that just blows my mind.They only needed a fg to win the game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you kick the fg and make them score a td to beat you with no timeouts.
Also when Zorn called the last timeout did you see all the confusion with his asst screaming NOOOO!! dont call it yet u fking dumbass!! let the clock run down then call it.
I think JC had a good game,but since hes been the qb weve had problems scoring.We march up and down the field and continuosly fold in the red zone.Its been our MO for a while now.If thats not Jasons fault{and im not saying it is}WHOSE FAULT IS IT?
