Skins vs Packers post game thread

Pathetic pitiful performance.

Going into the bye at 1-3 is the best case scenario.

I'm disgusted.

^ Oakland obviously isn't a push over. They have played well 2 weeks in a row. Even though today was against jax

I think the bad offense exposes our bad defense.

People act like they were expecting to have a top 10 defense, hell we were 28th in defense last year. We have rookies in the secondary, no #1 CB, an old ass linebacker who should've hung it up... Did you expect something better?

One of the reasons we did so well last season? ...We had a functioning on all cylinders offense. When your offense works, then your defense doesn't HAVE to work as hard.

What you're seeing now is what we really are and always have been as of late. Don't act surprised now.

People are expecting that, because Cofield, Orakpo and other Redskins were saying "Theres no reason we shouldn't be a top 10 defense".

U guys say Griffin didn't play well? He had over 300 yards and 3 tds. When is the last time we had a QB do that in back to back games?? Exactly.

Kerrigan is a beast
Orakpo is not
Merriweather needs to be cut anyway.
Garcon is solid
Reed looks like he'll be a beast
Morris did OK nothing great.
Trent Williams is a monster

Other than that we really have some major major issues everywhere else

I didn't think RGIII played well when it mattered and the game was still winnable.

My point is simple, missed tackles will lose you the game. I don't feel like looking it up, but how many missed tackles do we have through the first two weeks? I'm sure we are close to leading the leauge in that stat. We have got to do better when we have a shot at getting a guy down.

As far as the O goes, it's whatever. Nobody looks on the same page, and the numbers we are putting up are when the other team is up 20 points. PG had a big day, Morris had over 100 yards, but that was after GB was up by so much at the half. I'm all about RGIII, but a few more weeks like this (the sky is not falling) and I'll start to wonder what happened, and why we haven't taken a look at Kurt. We are far from being out of the running since all the NFC East looked like hell today. Just gotta figure some sh@t out....

^ Kurt? Warner?

This feels like we're making excuses for our pitiful performance. Honestly we're bad enough that I think our next improvement will be a competitive game. I don't expect us to be this bad in the second half of the season, but then again I didn't think we would look so terrible right now.

Yeah, the Redskins could VERY likely go 0-4 until they show me otherwise. Raiders aren't good, but they can still beat us. Plus Haslett sucks at making a gameplan against a mobile QB.

The Lions, Reggie Bush can break off huge runs against us, and Calvin Johnson makes great secondaries look bad. Plus the Lions have a good front 7 that can shut down our running game making us one dimensional and make Griffin throw the ball out quick.

People are expecting that, because Cofield, Orakpo and other Redskins were saying "Theres no reason we shouldn't be a top 10 defense".

They should know better, but I wouldn't expect them to come out and say they suck and still need work.

But we should know better as well. I'll admit I thought with a healthy front 4 we'd take some heat off our secondary but they're still just as bad as ever.

As much as I lay the majority of the blame on the O, the defense still needs to do better, mostly in the stretch (after the half).

The Redskins D is just fundamentally bad. Crazy penalties, mind-boggling horrible tackling... I don't know how this can happen so consistently at the pro level.

For The record: Redskins have been out gained in yards 695-230 in the first half this season. They have been out scored 50-7, with the lone TD coming from a defensive TD against Philadelphia.
