It was worth that one damn click.

Brian Billick: For incorrectly calling #12 on the Redskins Kelly Malcolm all fricking day.

The defense completely let down in the First Half. They not only bent, but broke. Blache was able to make adjustments for the Second Half, but the damage was done. And the 85 yard TD drive in the middle of the 4th quarter was the nail in the coffin.

It wasn't just Moss...this team still hasn't figured out to get beyond the sticks on 3rd down to convert. Portis got 6 on 3rd and 7. Moss got 9 on 3rd and 10. Cooley got 12 on 3rd and 13.

The final play. 8 seconds left, one of the 3 who touched it could have gotten out of bounds with 1-2 seconds left for another shot downfield. Zorn got too fancy calling a hook and ladder when the Lions gave them a cushion to get 2 plays done in those 8 seconds.

I have only ever seen that play work once. During a 2001 Virginia-Georgia Tech game and UVa pulled out the win with a Billy McMullen to Alvin Pearman hook-and-lateral. That was sweet. I was actually in the coaches box for the game and heard Bill Musgrave call it and thought, "that play never works." And then it did.

I'd say they did not have much of a chance at that point, but then Brett Favre had to go and complete that pass yesterday and make the impossible seem possible. Zorn really must hate Jason Campbell, he won't even let the guy go down swinging. Man, now you really have me hating that play call .... just another thing to be pissed at Zorn about and I hadn't even thought of that one until you mentioned it. Thanks a lot!

I'm not going to smack down any strategies, although I think some of them were flawed.

The real problem isn't with x's and o's. The problem is that we have no heart. No guts. No one shows up to play the game. The players have all of the intensity that I have while strolling through the park.

Perhaps this reality will change but at this point the coaches suck because they do not motivate the players and the players suck because they do not play with more self-motivated pride. Changing x's and o's won't change this.

I kinda miss Musgrave

Blanche: If your corners are playing 15 yds off the ball, and the 4 D lineman can't get any pressure, you are in deep sh*t. It is fairly obvious that a rookie quarterback should be pressured into making mistakes, well at least myself ant 31 other defensive coordinators in the NFL beleive that.

and NO I am not a D coordinator

Lotus? Noooooooooo!

Hows this for avatar Mutiny.


(To be honest though, I'm not really one of those "blame everything on Snyder" guys, but we don't have a Vinny-Drunk-At-The-Wheel-Driving-Us-Straight-To-Hell avatars. Yet.)

It stinks. Even Rush Limbaugh is bad mouthing our team now. This is low.

Foolishly I said that I would change my avatar to a Cowboys one for a week if we lost to the Lions.

The avatar change just completes the utter humiliation I feel today.
