[quote=skinsnut;1026933]Here are the defensive team rankings for all of Haslett's teams over the years.
This is what some of us were not exactly excited about when he was selected as D coordinator. That along with Shanny's disappointing defenses over the years.
After leaving Pitt...his numbers just seemed to get worse and hover around 22nd or so.
His career average is 20 and only had a marginal top 10 defense 13 years ago and only once before in a 17 year career..that is just not a good record as a defensive
coordinator.

Lets put this in perspective.
in 17 years (yards) hes had 2 top 10 teams and 7 bottom 10 teams.
And so far in Washington, 3 of his 4 teams are bottom 10...that is a pretty crappy downward trend.

Year Team Yds Pts
1996 NOR 13 20
1997 PIT 6 11
1998 PIT 12 7
1999 PIT 11 12
2000 NOR 8 10
2001 NOR 16 27
2002 NOR 27 26
2003 NOR 18 14
2004 NOR 32 27
2005 NOR 14 28
2006 STL 23 28
2007 STL 21 31
2008 STL 28 31
2010 WAS 31 21
2011 WAS 13 21
2012 WAS 28 22
2013 WAS 32 31[/quote]

Yikes! I had no idea that Haslett's record is that bad.

Two missed practices already... I'd say he's doubtful.

If we are 0-4 come the bye it is probably the end of Jim here especially with Morris in the wings.

If we go 0-4 it probably spells the end of a lot of people here.

I don't think we will though.

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

2-2 folks and then we will beat dallas on SNF bank on it

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

I am going 2-2 at the break too!

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

You knew what to expect with Haslett. I do know why he would/should be the fall guy. This isn't his team, his vision. The offense has been nearly as bad as the defense through Mikes tenure, with last year being the outlier.

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

I was never very excited over Haslett to begin with and if he gets dumped during or after the season, I will not shed a tear. That said, if he is dumped mid-season, then they might mean that the 'skins are in a lot of trouble. I think if the offense can have a breakout game and get back to 2012 form, a lot of this worry will kind of start to go away.

I know you love to to pile on Shanahan at any chance, but as defensive coordinator the performance of the D ultimately falls on Haslett. That just comes with the territory. He needs to get things figured out.

Well yes and no.Haslett is responsible for the defense Now,but it was Shanahans hare brained ideal to hire Haslett and blow up our 4-3 defense that was never suited to run the 3-4 and weve pretty much sucked since then,so you could kinda say its all Shanahans fault

Nobody forced Haslett to take the job.

We have the 3-4 personnel now. Haslett has to make it work.
