again, i don't think brunell is the problem. it's the guy calling pass plays on 3rd and 1, and kicking a field goal instead of going for it on 4th and 1 that is to blame. i'm obviously stuck on those two calls.

It's frustrating for us to be so back and forth and inconsistent and in my opinion to have no chance seems like a waste of the fans time. Obviously Joe Gibbs feels different so that's that, but it's starting to become obvious to more and more people I think.

Pinning this game on Brunell is absurd - there's plenty of blame to spread around. O-line has been pathetic, D-line is lousy, tackling has been bad, blocking has been bad. Coaches, players, everybody just looked like shit today.

I guess. Back to the drawing board.

Brunell is at eternal fault because he's not the playmaker he used to be and Jason Cambpell COULD be.

he's a good QB, but he can't be relied to save a game by himself like most people hope/expect from their starter. its hard for anyone to be hopeful on someone whose definitely on the downside of his career and declining.

Pathetic showing.. OL, DL were dominated, clearly out coached today.. Williams was WAY too conservative..

Seriously, WTF is up with that? Down 13 points with 5 or 6 minutes to go and you go for a field goal??

Also, don't let off the O-line. They played terrible today after a great outing against Jax.

We all expected more today coming off our last two performances. It's obvious we're struggling with consistency. There's enough blame to go around today as we have not played well in any phase of the game. There's going to be a lot of finger pointing, but the bottom line is no one played well today. Just one of those days.

Not to sound crushingly pessimistic, but this makes us 0-2 against the division and drops us to the bottom regardless of who wins the Dallas-Philly game. That's a HUGE hole to climb out of to ever make it to the playoffs.
