Redskins vs. Texans Gameday Thread

still saying icing the kicker is a bitchass move

Honestly none of the front seven did... ILB included... the whole mass movedAgreed, but if the OLB stays home and reads better it makes the QB throw quicker or off-balance.

I would rather us go out there and lose 44-0 than to have this happen

Agreed! It's really embarrassing, especially being up 27-10 at home.
In my eyes we lost last week too letting that last second TD happen, holding or not! So I see us 0-2..... we're not very good. We still have a long ways to go.

Key reasons why we lost today
- Jammal Brown false starting near the end zone making 3rd and 1 a 3rd and 6 which lead to
- Fred Davis not blocking the outer man freeing him up to block the kick
- McNabb overthrowing Galloway
- Reed Doughty and Philip Buchanan for the coverage on Andre the great Johnson. You NEVER should leave him in one on one coverage.

All that aside, I believe that the Texans this year will be the saints from last year. They are a Great offensive team, and the defense is shaky, but will get better. I think 5 weeks from now we'll be looking at the Texans saying " I can't believe we were even that close to beating that great of a team.."

People remember we have a new defense and offense scheme its only 2 games we will be a better team this year. You have to walk before you can run. HTTR

That would be great if our team was rebuilding, but we're not. I still think this 3-4 defense switch is a bad idea.

that was brutal ... however i feel a little different about this lose than in past years ... we got the t/o jinx on that FG ... that damn call with not calling Keiland Williams out of bounds ...then Andre Johnson catch was INSANE ... this is tough loss ... but I feel better about this time at 1-1 going to St.Louis ... shake it off ... get back to 2-1 and let's go to Philly

Agreed. No need to hit the panick button. It is a long season. We can all talk "what if" and play Monday Morning QB and pull things apart, but bottom line is, we learn from this and get ready for the next one.

Agreed. This loss was tough but not like years past. No need for dispair.

I am not down in the pit of despair Skins 89, but it is sad when you totally dominate the first half and run out of gas for roughly the last quarter and a half of play. Our D needs to step it up!!! We were looking like the old Mike Nolan days when we had Stanley Richards and Jesse Campbell making Jake Plummer and co look like all pros.

really any way we spin this this loss is a heartbreaker and i feel like sh!t. we need to learn how to put teams away. every game it seems we let teams back in the game whenever we get a lead. for years and years now. when we are up i just know we will give up the lead or at least make it close. its infuriating really.
