NFL Week #8: Washington Redskins (2-5) @ Dallas Cowboys (6-1)

[Bob Sacamano]

Ask Gruden, he said it before I did.

Romo looked like he never recognized the blitz on a lot of those plays. Its his job to make the reads/change the play/set the protections.

There was only one play where he didn't see the blitz coming. When we were backed up in overtime. Murray completely missed it.

The rest were just jailhouse breaks because Linehan couldn't come up with a plan to get the ball out sooner.

yeah you blamed the whole team after you praised Weeden for not getting hit in all 5 of his attempts or whatever... just sayin

So in your opinion, Weeden played bad?

His only bad play was the botched handoff, otherwise he did about as good as anyone could reasonably hoped.

He should have probably stayed in the game, but we know who made that decision and that person has a history of bad decisions.

Dr. Jerry says Durant out for the year,

ESPN crew going in on our coaching staff. Saying you have to adjust.


Trade deadline tomorrow. We need 1 maybe 2 defenders but I can't count on this Front Office to go out and get them.

No. Really? Adjust to what?

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Dooms, did you end up changing your bet on the Skins? I was thinking at the end that you made a great call.

Bummer news about Durant

ESPN (and anyone really) is right to go off on coaching staff. Both coordinators failed tonight.

Murray had 19 carries for 141 yards. Average of 7.4 per attempt. How do you not run him more when the game is close and your QB is injured? There was a lot of talk this week in the local media about resting Murray because he had so many carries... I really think this team listens to the media and forms a gameplan based on what they hear.

We needed a bus driver there and had one. Dumb decision to put the injured Tony back in.

I loaded up on them anyway. Figured what the hell.

We've had this problem long before Linehan arrived. haslett ALWAYS jailhouse blitz us on 3rd downs.

On that 2nd and 2 they had 10 men in the box.

Trade deadline tomorrow. We need 1 maybe 2 defenders but I can't count on this Front Office to go out and get them.

I don't want them to make any moves after what I saw tonight.

Just keep the picks, hope Lawrence and a healthier Melton & Crawford can get the pass rush going the 2nd half of the season.

Marinelli needs to just stop it with the zone coverages too.

Then we are fucked.

What the fuck are you talking about? I didn't say anything about Weeden's play. I'm just pointing out you will take any opportunity you can to shit on Romo.

Ultimately this is the kind of loss that bites a team in the ass come January.

Really no excuse to lose to that lousy of a team on your homefield.

But I told you (TE) that we would learn something about the team tonight win or lose. And we learned that the team still cant stay focused on a week to week basis and that our defense still cant be trusted.

I think it confirmed their defense will be their demise. You can't let Colt McCoy go 25 for 30, I don't see how Luck, Carson, et al don't light this team up going forward

I knew they wouldn't run the table but that performance was pretty discouraging and how they were incapable of handling the blitz is sickening.

Maybe this humble pie will serve them well, time will tell

Like I said, wasn't all his fault

Plenty of blame to go around dude

We came out sloppy from the get go. Murray and Randle can't keep putting it on the ground. We gave up 7-10 points because of that and gave them confidence going into halftime.

I'm utterly confused as to what happened on those blitz plays. It makes zero sense why we didn't adjust or go into max protect. No way can a team all-out blitz that much and not get burned. Particularly with Dez and Terrance Williams running out there one-on-one. Should have brought Escobar and Witten in to protect Romo. Could even have kept a fullback there to chip and release. We did nothing instead.

Got pretty tired of seeing McCoy's parents in that booth. I hate his family now and it should have never come to that. McCoy himself did show some poise. He made a couple huge plays for them. Maybe he was just put into a terrible situation in Cleveland. Gruden set him up with some good calls throughout all of tonight. His long ball accuracy was pretty terrible and that's why he's not a starter. He's definitely a serviceable back up QB though.

AFTER... MURRAY RAN FOR 8 YARDS.

But I guess that's Romo's fault as well. Gt the best RB in the league but n 2nd and 2 ... you choose to pass.

Murray had 19 carries for 141 yards. Average of 7.4 per attempt. How do you not run him more when the game is close and your QB is injured?

Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. And it's not like we haven't seen it before. I wouldn't hire that cock sucker to coach my high school football team and I mean that. I despise the man and I despise and fucking dolt that even mentions him in the same same sentence as Landry.

And if you weren't sure who I was referring to, it was Garrett. Fucking dolt........

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Omegasupreme is going to have a field day tomorrow.

btw, I wasn't able to catch the WR routes on all those 3rd down sacks, so what did they look like? Were they the usual long developing route trees or what?

 

[peplaw06]

On that 2nd and 2 they had 10 men in the box.

They were crowding the box all night.

 

[peplaw06]

Like I said, wasn't all his fault

Plenty of blame to go around dude

And like I said... he was your first target. And that's predictable.
