Would you rather be 0-2

I would rather be 0-2 if it got Zorn fired/demoted and replaced by Mike Holmgren.

Otherwise, no, 1-1 is better than 0-2. And, realistically, when we looked at the schedule when it was first released, atleast 90% of us thought we'd have a win over the Rams and a loss to the Giants at this point in the season. So, we're right where I, and most of us, thought we'd be - I just didnt think our offense would be this bad and Zorn would continue to challenge Steve Spurrier as the worst head coach the skins have had in my lifetime.

So at the end of the day, you're really not rooting for the Redskins to win any games this year? What's more important to you is that we get Zorn out of here as soon as possible to get Holmgren?

Wouldn't you rather we win and be successful with who we have?

I will take all ugly W's but honestly we might as well have lost. The game is terrible sign of things to come, barring a miracle turnaround, which is what is needed for this season to make the playoffs. If you think it will be anything else, then you are strongly mistaken. I hope I eat crow but it does not seem likely.

The skins are 3-7 last 10 games and they havent scored over 20 in that span. No wait let's celebrate the win!!! Hah, pathetic.

This is the ultimate question. Do you want Zorn to go 9-7 even if that is his peak and he sucks the year after? Isn't that delaying the inevitable?

^That isn't my position but it is many people. I haven't fully lost faith in Zorn and Co. but they are on a red hot seat.

we won didn't we?

last year at the end of the season, we were not moving the ball effectively, especially, from the 50 to the 20, and Zorn in the offseason said he was focusing on fixing that. we moved the ball effectively in both games in that area of the field.

I would call it medium rare right now. a little more seasoning, and we might get some well done out of it.

Sure, we beat a god awful team by 2 in our house and didn't score a TD. The week before we lost to a Giants team that played a pretty mediocre game. We play like this the rest of the way and .500 is a stretch.

From the 50 to the 20? So what? Again, points win games, not yards. Zorn should be focused on fixing moving the ball from wherever our possession begins to the endzone.

We were just barely good enough to beat a doormat. Even during our 6-2 start last year, our largest margin of victory was 8 over the winless Lions. Even when "successful" in this offense points have been scarce, and it doesn't look a ton better right now.

Moving the ball well outside of the redzone only to stall repeatedly doesn't exactly give me the warm and fuzzies.

I don't think anyone on this board is celebrating, however, does anyone else remember the 0-2 Patriots right before 9/11. They went on to win the SB

or the 0-2 Giants, on the verge of being 0-3 and beating us:( and going on to win the SB.

We are 1-1, some "easier" games ahead of us. If Zorn is able to push through the redzone mental block we could be a contending team. Certainly our D looks like it could be good, and our O needs to shift gears, Like the Giants did, like the Patriots did, hell like the 0-5 skins did with Gibbs. Can it happen, I think so. Will it, we shall wait and see.

I'm surprised nobody has brought up parallels with the many Ravens teams that had anemic offenses and pretty much won due to defense and Matt Stover.

The Redskins had a very good defense and a poor offense last year and failed to make the playoffs, and so far this year, it looks as if the offense might have actually taken a step back, so I'm not surprised parallels to the successful Ravens teams are not being drawn.

I think the tone of this board today clearly takes into account that they did win yesterday. If they had actually lost to the Rams yesterday I think this board would have crashed from all the venom being spewed out.

It's not an either or situation. Would you rather have a dirt sandwich or a kick to the groin? Me, I'll take steak & eggs thank you very much. Until these guys start shitting out Tiffany cuff-links then they're going to get ragged on, strait up. The fans are fed up.

My favorite post of all time! God this is funny some reason. Don't know why, but it is.

Because those teams absolutely terrorized the QB and we don't.
