We can blame JC for the key pick but one could also blame some no guts calls.

That's the spirit. Whatever you don't like blame on Gibbs. The funny thing is, I think that's the way he wants it.

I think when you give up 4 TDs to the same guy, perhaps the defense should come in for some scrutiny.

JC had a solid game. Can't blame this loss on him, besides that crappy int at the end. It's been 2 years in the Al Saunders offense, 3 years of GW. We need to double TO every time (better in Landover) and not play Cover 2 if our CBs refuse to run. We still need 2 WRs to compete with our smurfs. Brightest spots, Captain Chaos, JC, Santana showing, our desire to fight for a W, and McCardell.

Where I'm from, that takes balls. What's easy is just keeping the offense on the field and putting your coordinator on the hot seat.

Wrong call? Probably. Gutless? Get real.

You really need to look at the time in the game and the place you are for that kick. Great if you make it. But it hurts much much more if you miss giving Dalls high power O giving them a short field. I would have like to see them punt if they are not going to go for it to pin them deep but a miss was a killer!
