Agreed Yankee. Somebody made a joke on a Redskins forum, saying Dan Snyder needs to clean house from the General Manager down to the cheerleaders coach. apparently a season ticket holder who had good seats noticed that the cheerleaders had been messing up routines the entire game. kinda reflective of this team as a whole LOL
and i agree as well about the playcalling. Kyle Shanny is bi-polar with his scheme...i don't get that dude at all
I really don't think it's so much the pass protection as it is the playcalling. I remember watching the Skins-Broncos game a couple of weeks ago and the Skins were pinned back on their own 20-yard line late in the 4th Quarter. They called some play with these deep routes that take forever and month to develop, and predictably, Griffin was sacked. In that situation, you have to know that the blitz is coming, and even the best O-Lines will give into pressure when a defense is that aggressive. I wouldn't blame that line in that instance, but rather the lousy play call.
There were some other suspect playcalls last night. If you guys called plays in the second half the way you did in the first half, you would have won.
You obviously didn't pay attention to Tyler Polumbus and Chris Chester letting Justin Tuck go un-evaded to the quarterback on many occasions Sunday night. Pass protection is a H-U-G-H problem with the offense. The second half playcalling is bad in my opinion, only because they seem to go away from Alfred Morris way too early, but pass protection is terrible.

ya know...its crazy with Shanny. he showed signs of being an absolute genius last year, and a few glimpses of it this year. But the few times we've actually had a lead lately, he takes his foot off the gas, and we blow it. Really, really disappointed in Kyle Shanny.
And for whatever reason, even if we're winning, he sometimes forgets we have Alfred Morris. Its funny being a Redskins fan, because after such a successful season last year, you'd think we'd be devestated. Nope. We are used to 20+ years of the suck, so its nothing new. I'm willing to chop up this entire year as a wash because Griffin wasn't healthy, our o-line is awful, our secondary blows, and London Fletcher is 47 years old.
I'm willing to allow Shanny and son to stay on, so long as Mike fires Haslett. If Mike Shanny refuses to fire Haslett, than Dan Snyder should ****can them all.
And so does your receiving corps. And your secondary. And your special teams. And your play calling for that matter. Your whole entire defensive scheme is suspect. I thought the Skins were better in the 4-3.
The bright spots are Alfred Morris, Brian Orakpo and Kai Forbath (when healthy). Never underestimate the importance of a consistent kicker.
Yeah, I do. He was very average. Do you honestly think he's a good offensive coordinator? He doesn't suck as bad as Haslett but he's right up there...
He made Matt Schaub, who will never be confused with Joe Montana, the QB of a top 10 offense several times. If you want to hate on Kyle for what is happening now be my guest. But let's not pretend that he has not been successful in the past, including last year.
