Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins at Cowboys)

[#56fanatic]

I think this team is WAY better than what I expected. The game last night was a tough, hard fought loss. I can't get too upset over anything, other than just the plain loss of an opportunity to be 3-0.
As far as the blitz on 3rd and 21, hey thats what we do. We are the #1 team in the NFL on 3rd down by blitzing and not giving the QB time to survey the field and find an open guy. I am not blaming the call at all. He made a play, Dez made a play and we didn't. We have been making plays all night, hell all year, we just didn't make that one. Again, to me it comes down to a missed field goal. I am really tired of finding ways to lose games by missed field goals, extra points.

Gano fought hard though coming back and nailing the 50 yarder, I give him credit for that. But we have to execute the FG opportunities, especially the short ones, making those 50+ yarders are bonuses.
