Interesting point...discipline.
Our players did not play in control. They appeared nervous, some played and acted like rookies.
I think Campbell, Moss and Hall's play best displayed it.
Campbell was having one of those frustrating days where the harder he tried the worse his performance got. Campbell seems to be not only battling the other team, he is battling himself. Campbell needs to occasionally have some fun on the field. Laugh a little. His ass hole is so tight during big games he couldn't shit a BB. Basic things like stepping up in the pocket, holding the ball higher and sensing the pass rush, all basic stuff went out the window. He needs to get laid before kick off. Something. Smoke a fatty. Something to relax that brain, he is thinking way too much.
Another basic fundamental tackling. Greg Williams (hate him or not) was the first person I thought of Sunday when I saw that pathetic display of tackling. That was the worst display of tackling I have seen on a Redskins defense since the Spurrier Days. What happened to wrapping up, tackling at the waist? This is all fundamentals and basic shit.
We have an incredibly talented defense. But why is that Blache can not disguise a blitz to save his life. It is almost like he tells the blitzing player, 'after you break the huddle run up to the line of scrimmage, jump up and down, stomp your feet and make the QB aware that you are blitzing.'
This was one game and we will rebound against the weaker teams.
However, if we are still playing like this in in week 7 against Philly or week 10 against the Cowboys, there is a bigger issue here than just early season jitters.
