Redskins vs. Lions Gameday Thread

Still go back to opening drive could not punch it in, came away with no points. Lions go 99 yards for a TD. Moss face mask penalty they over turned. Horton pass interference call do to know pass rush. These plays hurt us big time.

That first drive set the tone for the game IMHO. At that point the Lions believed they could win and we started doubting ourselves.

Good article by Larry Weisman, at least he isn't the other Larry "aka" BALL SHINER. This guy shoots straight.

Redskins Break Down In the Motor City (http://www.redskins.com/gen/articles/Redskins_Break_Down_In_the_Motor_City_60635.jsp)

Just got back from the game. OMG we are truly in deep trouble. We have no depth whatsoever I guess with regards to the O line. The O line itself sucked rocks. Why did Zorn have CP run about 5-10 yards east/west when he only had to go north/south 3 feet? Portis had only 3 decent runs the entire game. Why did JC lose 3-4 snaps, is his head in the game? Not too sold on our newbie WRs either as it was the Santana Moss show. Zorn better seriously consider putting Mitchell in to "spice" things up. WE are far from being a contender and the sad thing is we supposedly have way more talent than Norv had to work with over 10 years ago. Shit Norv for all his faults could have called a better game than Zorn. This franchise is screwed for the near term future.

I think what upsets me the most is that I'm sure the Lions are going to go back to their losing ways (they're at Chicago next week), making us losing to them even worst.

Right. Zorn obviously thought we could get one yard but if we couldn't, there was no way the Lions would go 99 yards on us. They would punt and we'd get the ball back. I don't think that's unreasonable, but apparently anything is possible with this defense.

Its just another idiotic move by Mr. Pathetic aka Jim Zorn. He clearly let all the criticism from the last couple weeks get to him. You should just take the points and move on. He tried to make up for last weeks failures by punching it in, and it didnt happen. Real Head coaches dont let the media/fans influence the way they call a game. Mr. Pathetic needs to take his playbook and head back to Washington....state that is!

Blache should be shown the door as well, his schemes are absurd. There is alot more talent on this team than what they are showing. Our defense looks like crap, there isnt anymore pass rush this year even with Albert. Defensive backfield continuing to play 10 yards off the receivers, WTF? Our O-line is continually getting beat, S. Heyer should never be a starter in this league. And just like usual everyone just blames everything on JC. He is gonna end up somewhere else, and become a good QB.

Its a sad day for our beloved Skins....we are the laughing stock of the NFL.

Well put!! I totally agree.

It is time us fans start putting some pressure on Snyder and the organization. Enough of this sub par play year after year. We throw big money out and most of it is wasted. We pay their salaries we help keep this team afloat.
Well I vote you first to stop posting about the skins and stop watching them and then maybe others will follow.
