He just so happened to do that most of the time.

I was just disappointed that in the 2nd half we didn't get any pressure w/the 4 or 5 man rush. Doherty blitzed a couple times off the edge but they picked it up easily.

A couple guys had their worst games IMO. Namely Landry & Rak. Rak was shut down for the most part, his sack was on a play he was unblocked. Landry didn't get off many blocks all game.

I hated the game plan. And I have not blamed coaching for anything since Shanny got here. That soft lay back defense is not the idenity they are building here. it took all the life out of them. How do you let a rookie dictate what kind of game your gonna call? He should have been blitzed on every other play so that he could never get comforatable back there. And frankly...the Redskins CB's are not good enough for the kind of game plan he tried to use. Without pressure and the ball coming out quick those guys are cooked...TERRIBLE job by Haslett.
