Re: Skins/Panthers post game
This is the first chance I got to post. The Redskins should not have lost a winnable game to a sorry 1-5 team by 8 points at home. The Redskins defense hasn't been this bad since Mike Nolan was the DC. I don't know where to place the blame. Is the problem Haslett? Is it Raheem Morris who coaches the secondary? Is it the personnel of the secondary? I think people who are saying the 3-4 defense is the problem is not paying enough attention. Three down linemen and 4 linebacker alignment isn't the problem. The 3-4 defense was working great last season so there is proof that it works. If the Redskins have backslid, it's not the 3-4 defense to blame.
Atogwe was released and Landry was allowed to become a free agent. Even though Atogwe battled injuries last season, he was still a solid performer. Meriweather hasn't seen the light of day of the football field this year. Knowing that Tanard Jackson had violated the NFL's substance abuse policy before, why the f*#*% would Shanahan sign this junky to a contract? Jackson is on suspension. The Redskins could have kept Atogwe and the results, although mixed last season, would surely been better this year. But the Redskins are working with trash players in the secondary. I'm not even going to get started on Josh Wilson or DeAngelo Hall.
