Don't the Rams and Bucs both have brand new head coaches? Just starting to build their teams. Freaking MS has been here long enough that we should be better then the TB/STL's of the world at this point.
Funny because just a couple of years ago so many people were all "Oh man, look at the Bucs! They're 10-6. They turned things around so quickly! Why can't we???? Blah, blah blah"
I am not a Debbie Downer and generally have supported MS and company but it is time this team HIS team steps up and don't give me the well he has a rookie QB. The god damn rookie QB is the only reason the MS turd even has two wins.
Love how when a QB struggles it's all because of the coaches but a QB does well and it's in spite of the coaches
Honestly how the fawk did the defense get worst from last year? Much worst for the matter.
Key injuries for one. But more importantly, offenses didn't have to try as hard last year to outscore our offense
Look at the penalties that are killing us...that is coaching plain and simple.
Ravens and Steelers (two perennial AFC powerhouses) have more penalties per game than we do.
I fear MS and KS realize this maybe their last hooray and will literally run Bob into the ground to save their necks.
****ing idiotic. What the **** did you draft RG3 for if not to use his ****ing talents. This whole "they run RG3" too much is ****ing stupid.
How Jim H still has a job is mind fawking blowing to me.
I got nothing
Want get MAD really MAD??? Think about in the last decade how many number one draft picks (top ten ones at that) we blew on the secondary and now it is our weakest link! FAWK! (I know not really MS and companies fault but still burns me).
Let's rehash the Carlos debate

It is so hard to watch the Skins. I mean, I love RGIII and he is making it fun to watch again. But so much SSDD.
Big lead? Don't worry we'll blow it.
Been stopping the deep ball finally? Don't worry, they'll connect.
Got a decent drive going? Don't worry, we'll get a penalty to stop or just fizzle on 3rd down.
I know it's victory monday but the debbie downers have finally gotten to me I think. MS has had 3 years. This should have been a "put them away win". Tired of games coming down to the last series. Strangely, I don't think next week's will. Other than RGIII & Morris, I just don't see much to be positive about this team (okay, Kerrigan also).
Unlike others, I got no problem with the offensive play calling. The scheme seems solid but the stupid penalities need to stop. On D, come'on boys cover somebody. Next week R. White and J. Jones are going to be running free.
I can't believe how depressed I am on the day after a win. Help!
Im trying to pretend that i dont remember thinking these things and hide in a victorious monday morning but it is true. We are two and two but probably should be 1-3 and on top of that this was one of two easy games left on the schedule.
Despite the gaudy numbers on the offense (3rd in total yds and yds/game; 1st in rushing yds and rushing yds/game; 4th in total points and points/game), our offense is tied for last in 3rd down conversion at 25.5 pct. This has got to change, especially if we are going to continue to have issues with the defense. We can't give teams the opportunity to come back, and we've seen that happen in 3 games.
Also, I just saw that we are first for most penalties (37) and tied for first in penalty yds (356), this has to change.
I think it goes back to staying out of 3rd and longs. And that ties in with the penalties too.
Amazing when you think about it that we've still been able to overcome that and put up all the points we have.

A tale of 2 halfs,you won the first and survied the second and came away with a win,Bob looked ok.Congratulations.:food-smil
Bob looked better than ok. Especially if we remember he was playing in his fourth game. Of course its easy to forget he is a rookie when watching him so.....

Penalties bother me, but the stupid emotional ones really burn me up. The Garcon personal foul and Clipping penalty killed 2 drives the second half. That is unacceptable and shows no discipline. How could you be so stupid and selfish after the Morgan play? There needs to be more accountability. Shanny should rip those guys for that garbage.

Or maybe we should be 3-1? I'd be more upset if we were playing really smart (i.e. no silly penalties) and struggling to get our offense going.

I thought we won the game. You guys pick the other team to win and then bitch like little girls when the Skins actually win.
You know we just want to see quality football rite? Lets stop the in-fighting. We are probably alot closer to the bottom of the barrel than the top of it After almost blowing that game am i supposed to stick my chest out and play httr all day because we snuck out a close one against a bad team? Im happy we won because it allows me to dream still that we are going to make some noise this year but i also realize that we were about six inches from being the same old redskins and now we get the falcons, ravens,steelers and six against the nfc east. So at the end of the year are you even going to give a crap you beat the 5-11 bucs in a clise one? Lol. There were problems even in the win there were problems. And its ok to hash them out in a discussion thread about the game without having to be called a debbie downer or cry baby. Jeez-

Yup, let me be clear I love this board. I think you and Matty both do a bang up job and if not for this board I probably have given up on the Skins awhile ago.
With that said I think you are putting lipstick on a pig.
Even you said a few days back you got tired of the Wizards and their management and basically gave up on them. Some of us on here today kind of feel the same about the Skins right now (though I am not giving up; I am more or less saying I am disappointed in the product).
I have made very valid points so be it and you have a right to your opinion so be that but when the day is done I bet 99% of this board is not happy at where the Skins are right now in year 3 of MS and company. I think if this ship was on course we should be 4-o or 3-1 at this point considering our schedule thus far.

I only cuaght a quick glimpse of the clipping penaltgy but it seemed sorta iffy to me. Looked like he tripped into him. Am I wrong about that?

These are the type of penalties I was referring to. That is a reflection of coaching. IMO.
