I think we may need to look long and hard at our WR group next offseason. I'm really starting to lose my faith in Moss as a true #1 WR.

I am agreeing with this more and more every week. I think every one of us over valued our WR's.

I believe ARE was undervalued relative to what we paid him. I think we're getting our money's worth out of that guy. Moss has checked out with Portis.

Lloyd was damaged goods from Day 1 and that hasn't changed.

People give Jason all this crap for always targeting Cooley, but there's a reason he looks there first.

Lloyd is just a bad teammate. Randel El and Moss are solid, but their little guys and aren't TD threats without a deep ball. We really need a big target ala Art Monk to go with our speed burners. Cooley is good but we need a WR-TD threat in the end zone for jump balls, someone to go over the middle and manhandle CBs and good hands. These WRs are hard to come by, but McCardell 5 years ago is a good example.....

LOL I could not agree with you more. I heard it all week long to0. Especially when I gave my score prediction of 42-3. I said I was being generous. I think I deserve an apology. How bout it skins you wanna show some class LMAO. Or you could just never ever blast me for my prediction again.

52-0 oops I mean 7(was the third sting defense in at this point)

[skinsfan0201]

Hey hey hey enough, I agree we had a helliacious game but that by no means means that we are a bad team. In fact I still think we are a strong team with some unfortunate injuries that we need to overcome on our offensive line, and so many mistakes made in loud Foxboro.

[Blue Star]

The skins are not 100% a bad team just on Oct 28 2007 they were. Skins just have to move on after this anal rape. I don't know what all you fans are upset about? Its gonna happen to every team they play.... well maybe not this bad but everyone will occur a loss by NE.

[Redskin]

The underneath passes for 5 yards that the ripped off for 25 yards is what killed us. They figured out our weakness and we changed nothing to stop it

I'm sorry but can someone help explain to me why our defense didn't show up. I know Rogers got hurt but that doesn't explain the same game plan we had for the last 6 games, it doesn't explain why the corners did play any pressure defense or why they gave their receivers 10+ yards cushing. Also, why is that the Patriots ran some of the same plays out in the flat and across the middle and we made no adjustments? And you are telling me that our receivers couldn't get open until the last 3 minutes of the game when we march down the field to score. I'm not a conspiracy person but it seems that the NFL got what they wanted and that was a Patriots/Colts undefeated matchup next week. Please help me understand? Or am I over analyzing.

We played the Patriots who are destroying everyone... what were you expecting?

[rtsp94]

I was expecting an effort. I guest that's just asking too much.

[redskinsfanatic]

new england is gonna beat the shit out of everybody they play this season,i doubt that the nfc probowl contingent could beat them.after 6 games this year,i am convinced that the portis experiment is a failure.i would love to see the coaches bench his ass and start betts
because betts is the better back in the redskins system.i do'nt know wtf moss's problem is.
he used to catch everything,now he can't catch anything.as for running up the score,this is the nfl,not pop warner league.besides,i'd be pissed if i paid 100 bucks for a ticket and saw the 3rd string players the second half.

I dont think you can single anyone out on our roster that should shoulder any of the blame. The oline sucked, receivers, running backs, QB the defensive side of the ball, coaching staff, everyone sucked. We have to pick up the pieces and move forward to the Jets game. I have said from the beginning of the year I dont understand the defensive game plan. It worked against everyone else, primarily because they have zero run game. We can not sit back in that zone and let QB's pick us apart. Warner started attacking the middle of the field late the previous week and Brady picked us apart over the middle of the field. We have to start putting pressure on good QB's or they are going to kill us. Detroit and GB have no running game and very avg olines which allows us to pressure with the front 4 and sit back. Teams like NE, Dallas, Giants have good OLINES, decent running games will eat us up. I have not been a big fan of this D. And I am not just jumping on them because of 1 game, I have felt this way all year.

I think there was effort, but we got steamrolled just like everyone else has that's played NE so far this year. Or has everyone else they've played just not put in any effort either?

I agree the effort was there. What surprised me most was how the Redskins defense let the Pats run right through them at the beginning to set the tone for the game. The D will be back. I hope Campbell can shrug off the offense's dismal performance.
