saunders called the plays today as he always does.typical skins/giants/nfc east game.maybe it will put a chip on the players shoulders for the next 2 weeks,and
they'll come back really pissed!

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

Playcalling was bad, defense folded and Betts is the most useless short yardage back I have ever seen. Stretch the ball out and you score, break a tackle that 9 out of 10 NFL RB's break and you tie the ballgame. That was as inexcusable as taking the ball out of Jason Campbell's hands.

This game was reminiscent of the Norv era Skins.

i think everyone on this warpath overlooked the giants just like the redskins did!

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

If you watched this game, this is not Al Saunders offense. The defense played incredible despite the pathetic offensive playcalling. You can not ask the defense to stop the Giants offense the whole second half if the offense puts up 14 second half yards. Joe Gibbs should just stop fucking up with the offense. He needs to just let Al Saunders run this offense the way he sees fit. We are the Herman Edwards' Chiefs team of the NFC. This is pathetic.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

It didn't help that the defense was on the field the whole second half, and the play calling in the redzone was absolutely horrible.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

I knew we were in trouble after the first series in the second half. Skins (coaches and players) approached second half as if game was already over. Now I have to hear from my Giants fan wife until we play them again...this is a bad day!

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

I dunno, I saw the same offense that I've seen the past few weeks. Only difference is today we didn't convert on 3rd downs enough.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

Good NFL Teams dont go up 17-3 at the half and lose....Good Teams dont do that, so by that logic....



Were not a good team, bottom line. That was fucking pathetic. ABSOLUTLEY pathetic. That playcalling was atrocious, I dont care what the Giants did, wheather they rallied or not, we were up SEVENTEEN TO FREAKING THREE.....Our offensive playcalling was ATROCIOUS...I could take the 11 people in my house and gain fourteen yards on offense against that pathetic Giatns defense

I don't believe so. The Giants didn't play THAT great. (Granted they did play good) But when the Skins goes 3 and out for an entire half, the other team is gonna do something with all those chances. Which the Giants did.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

LOL I love the board after a loss.

Welcome to over reaction city. :doh:

Some folks on here are just averse to criticizing Gibbs. Joe v2.0 sucks at offensive play calling.

Just 1 game though - would've been cool to head in to the bye 3-0, but 2-1 ain't that bad. Gotta win against the Lions though.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

There is no excuse for blowing this kind of lead at home.

The defense didn't just bend, or break, but rather imploded back through time into 2006. Our o-line was physically dominated. Jason Campbell was flustered most of the game, played poorly. Passes were dropped. Many missed tackles.

There was no rhyme or reason to our play calling. Too conservative on some plays, then running WR reverses at other times. This was an abortion of a game, and it's a huge loss.

We cannot afford games like this, and this team needs to come out swinging in two weeks.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

The clock management at the end of the game was predictably pathetic, but thats about the 8th most important reason as to why we lost.

In the second half, the defense got the ball thrown all over it. If Eli wanted a first down, he got it. Derrick Ward is a pretty good player back there.

Offensively, we made more critical mistakes in the second half than good plays. Some weird things happened like Portis uncharacteristically grabbing at a handoff. Campbell's accuracy was troubling to say the least in the second half, and the offensive line struggled.

I don't think the playcalling was bad, but it was unremarkable. Unremarkable playcalling and poor excution is always a disaster.

Re: Great Playcalling, Joe
 

I hate to say this but if this was other coaching staffs the game would have been over. No reason why we were not passing more against the 31st rank pass defense.
