Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
We can complain about the coaches and all that, but we're still playing for first place at home against the Giants next week. I'd bury this one right away and move on. We suck on the road. It is what it is. We'll see what everyone is made of, not only against the Giants, but the Cowboys as well. If we can go 2-0, then we're 6-6 and in the drivers seat.
Bottom line, we are still need 2-3 solid drafts, as well as a couple good FA signings. We need several more guys that can block, tackle, cover and rush the passer. |

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
Redskins: DeSean Jackson, Chris Culliver weigh in on 'the call'
I wouldn't go so far as to say the team quit. I'm sure it took a lot of air out of their sails...how could it not? That INT and return for a TD was HUGE for us. To have it taken away definitely had an impact and I think before some of the guys got over the disbelief of such an incredibly inept, totally ridiculous call of such magnitude, things snowballed in a hurry. The Panthers took advantage of our obvious lack of focus at that point and we got steamrolled. Once a play is over its over. Hard as it may be, forget it and keep ballin'. It ain't coming back.

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
Oh I completely agree that wasn't the only idiotic call of the day. Far from it. But it's being called, "The Call" for a reason. Imo it had the most impact. Without it we have the lead and the other plays most likely never happen. I don't think the players quit at any point during the game, but I do believe that call caused enough distraction among our guys that they weren't completely focused on the play at hand on every down after that call.

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
Hilarious, they asked Trent Williams what they need to get the run game going and he simply said "attempts". Lol poor game plan, poor play calling, giving up on the run

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
Agreed. With only something like 7 attempts running the ball it's hard to have a running game.

If gruden says "the short passing game is an extension of the run game" in today's presser, I am going to drive down to ashburn and punch him in his fucking face. if darrell young is not used in at least 15 snaps against the giants, im driving down to ashburn and punching mcvay and callahan in their fucking faces. I really hope the reporters ask about the run game and not focus solely on the penalties which we have already heard about a ton.

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
You're a joke if you think the players think that and think we had a chance to run the ball effectively the way the game went down.
I don't get that vibe at all from talking to the players. Most believe in the system.

So you think the second half of yesterday was well called game and well executed adjustments coming out the second half? I don't understand, what says "great job" of getting blown the fuck out by the Jets, Giants, Patriots and now the Panthers? You don't think Cousins, Jay and McVay should be improving as an offense? Your satisfied? 4 games of being blown-the-fuck-out out of 10 games...Jay Gruden, McVay and Cousins aren't rookies folks. |

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
Cousins doesn't play well against the Giants. Morris needs at least 25 carries. Pound the ball and double team Beckham. 2 keys to game.

Re: Skins @ Panthers gameday thread
One thing I am really tired of is seeing these tall tight ends dip their head/helmet downward to brace for impact against a defender and then the defender gets called for a blow to the head. To me it absolutely must be factored in as to which player is initiating the contact to the helmet.
They did this with RB's already, where they aren't allowed to use their helmet to drive into a defender (although it goes uncalled all the time). It's like the NFL has come to the conclusion that every single injury ever is caused by the defense. |
