Jim Haslett's inconsist defense

I had just woken up, Thanks!

Just giving you ish.

I like the individual parts if not the scheme and execution. I think Perry Riley is a real keeper and has been a pleasant surprise this season. In fact, if you look at the front seven I'm not sure where the Skins are in need of a significant upgrade. This helps us come draft time as we can focus on depth and plug some holes in the back four.

I don't question the talent, but I do the scheme and lack of adjustment, it's been 2 years and he still hasn't adjusted to a scrambling type QB.

they had a really bad game yesterday, Wilson was terrible at Corner, Riley was out of position a ton, Reed was just Reed, not a starting saftey in the NFL. OJ at safety seemed very slow again...Safety is a much more of a concern that CB going into the offseason.

Defense was bad yesterday period.

How about against Carolina, Buffalo, Miami, Jets, NE, Minnesota?Wait, you're just talking about wins and losses then? Your list looks like a bunch of good teams, and then yesterday against backups. At least thats how I see it.

I don't question the talent, but I do the scheme and lack of adjustment, it's been 2 years and he still hasn't adjusted to a scrambling type QB.I think its fair to say that Michael Vick has given Haslett fits and is the one QB who it has taken him all the way until half to adjust to, but I want to give him the first half of next week before I write off his tenure as "cant defend scrambling quarterbacks."

I think the injuries hurt and also the fact that Brian hasn't had a great impact this season, honestly I just think he's a natural 4-3 DE? Kerrigan fits the 3-4 better IMO. That being said our D needs some serious help at CB and S.. OJA and LL were disappointments this season and Josh Wilson is a 3rd at best

Vick, Newton, Fitzpatrick, Moore, Ponder/Webb, all these guys gave Haslett's D problems scrambling and couldn't even adjust to Newton, Moore, Fitzpatrick, Ponder/Webb, Vick. 2 years and still not fixed, let's see how he handles Vick next week.

If there's one off season move I would like to see the Redskins to make, is to replace Jim Haslett as DC, his defenses drive me nuts. One week they play great, the next week they allow RB's and QB's to run at will. The one thing I've noticed with Haslett is that he has not been able to adjust his defense to scrambling type QB's like Vick, Newton, Webb/Ponder. 2 years now with the same problem and no fix. If Leslie Frazier or Raheem Morris get fired, I would like to see either one as a replacement. Your thoughts?


So, blow up a defense that went from 32 to top 10? Has 2 or 3 rookies playing quite well, a 2nd year LB playing well, one of the best in the NFL on 3rd down, top 5 or 10 in sacks in the NFL??

Yeah, why not blow it up and start over.. and move back to 4-3 with the very good 3-4 personel we have brought in here.

The thing that worries me about Haslett is that he has always had the same inconsistent issues everywhere he's been, NO, Rams, Pitt. One week great play next week you are wondering what happened to the D from the previous week, something you never worried about w/ Petitbone. Yesterday they allowed 33 pts. do you call that a good D? With the talent on the D it should be better especially against the Vikes.


So would you say holding teams like dallas to 6 field goals, holding pats down pretty much the game, holding the jets for 55 minutes, 49ers....is that good.

amazing how after a loss all people can focus on is negative and try make shit up to say someone needs to get fired. Haslett has formed a top 10 defense with one draft and one offseason. From 32 in the NFL to TOP 10!! What the hell is wrong with people. This is why we are so damn awful every other year because we change this and change that and are not consistant. Stay the course, and maybe we'll be in the top 3 next year... but that will probably not be good enough because we should be #1.

Who said anything about blowing up the D? Switch DC that's all.
