Skins vs. Eagles Post-Game

I'm thinking that:
1) We looked pretty good, but came up short again - special teams and defense kills us again.
2) We should invest high round draft picks on D again - corner (replace hall), safety, Dline.
3) If Cousins keeps this up, we could consider trading RG3 and salvaging something for the 3 first rounders + 2nd rounder..
4) We should've kept the other kicker, who could freaking kick it out of the end zone and eliminate returns entirely.

Meh. No matter who's the coach or the QB, this team (franchise) simply finds ways to lose. Doesn't matter if the QB throws for 500 yards, something else will screw up. It's been this way for twenty years and isn't changing now.



This team is 1-2 and people still think they're some juggernaut that's about to break loose. Nope. This isn't college football where a close loss might still give you some points in the standings. This is the NFL and there are no moral victories. Just another bad loss.


A loss in college football is far more devestating than a loss in the NFL. Just sayin....

“We had plenty of chances offensively to do something: We threw a pick, we had the ball at the 40-yard line down three with four chances to get 10 yards and we couldn’t do that,” Gruden said. “Defensively, we missed some assignments again and gave up big plays, and special teams.

“ . . . We all had our hand in this — coaching, as well — in this defeat.”

I'm actually pretty happy. Think about the football we've seen in the past seasons? We had one year where we were competitive. ONE! I'm glad just to see us like we can hang, be in games near the end of them.

I can see expectations are high around here lol.

Like his attitude

As painful as it was to lose in the manner that we did. This did make my day!

We seriously need a kicker who can put the ball in the back of the end zone on kickoffs. If Forbath is going to be getting XPs blocked, and missing go-ahead 33 yard FGs in the 4th quarter, I'd like to see what Hocker could do in a real game, given the chance.

Ha. Don't get me wrong, I like winning. But, I'd much rather see a game like today where the skins look like a professional team than the Houston game where it looked horrible.

My notes on today's game:

1. ST lost this game, and Kai gots to go!
2. Cousins played a hell of a game (not looking good for team RG3), but he choked. He did, he had the win in his hands and he couldn't deliver. Sorry team KC, but until he wins a comeback, this will be hanging over his head.
3. Why couldn't we get a sack? Was last week a mirage? Were their receivers just getting open too quickly? Is Foles Jake the Snake incarnate?
4. Perry Reily needs to work on coverage, badly!
5. Did Merriweather even play today?
6. I was boosted for DJax and his F U touchdown!
7. Redskins are starting to look like a contender, if they could just get out of there own way.
8. I can't wait for South Park, sh#% looks funny as hell!
9. We want NY!
Edit: 10. Cage Match: Saden vs. Gary84Clark, two crazies go in, one comes out! I'm taking bets.

For the record, I'm team Redskins, I don't care who wins the starting QB job in the long run as long as winning games comes first! Bruce and Jay are gonna have one hell of a decision to make in a few weeks, and however this plays out it will be the defining decision of this Front Office.
