[quote=jsarno;366832]2nd half drives:
1st drive, 2 runs, 1 pass.
2nd drive, 8 runs, 2 passes.
3rd drive, 1 run, 2 passes.
4th drive, 2 runs, 1 pass.

Current drive 1 run, 1 pass.

That's 14 runs to 7 passes.

Just an FYI.[/quote]

I am sure if you look at the first half stats it will be even worst.

[QUOTE=Mattyk72;366831]They take a shot and the WR drops it, play calling issue??[/QUOTE]

LOL...that was a tough catch.
In case you missed it, even the announcer said it was conservative, the fans think it's conservative, and the people here think so too...it's only you that is saying it isn't. I wonder who's right?

As soon as things go sour, "Oh, it's the injuries". Good teams play injured, sick, headless, whatever.

Like I said, how to teams like the Pats, Jacksonville, Indy, get things done with or without injuries and the Skins can't?[/quote]

I'm not sure what those teams injury situations look like but I'm sure if any of them were missing 3 starters along their offensive lines they might struggle too.

Oh well, as long as we win, I'm OK with it. We can't do this every week...but we could get away with it vs the Cards.

it is pathetic

I haven't denied it's conservative, but I'm trying to explain why it is. Are the coaches just being conservative for the sake of being conservative? I'd prefer to consider the reasons why that is rather than just passing blame and not understanding why things happen they way they do.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

We're giving Warner time again.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

and now of course the soft defensive zone when we DONT need it...

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

can we get at least one blitz on warner!

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

Why isn't Laddell getting more carries?

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

[QUOTE=Mattyk72;366827]It all starts up front. When you can't run the ball it makes it tough to do anything, and when you're missing 3 starters along the offensive line it's bound to limit what you can do.

But let's just take the easy route and blame the play calling. :doh:[/QUOTE]

It limits what you do but as some of us have been saying all year, what does that have to do with taking a 3 step drop and throwing a slant on 2nd and 7 when the defense has 9 in the box? No intelligent fan wants to see JC taking 7 step drops and heaving the ball downfield every play, but when all of us on our couches KNOW we're going to see run left, run left, short pass, punt on every second half possession with a 1 or 2 TD lead then it's not just 'OL problems'. That's as much of an 'easy way out' as you claim playcalling is.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

Well, everyone who wants to see us throw will get plenty next week. We'll have to score at least 30+ to have a chance.

True.

But I'm not debating that the Skins shouldn't struggle. I can understand that.

Just that they need to get their consistency together. The Defense can't pull them out of sticky situations every game. Something's gonna give and it's not gonna be pretty. I just fear for that moment.

[I]Opposing team driving late in the game down by one score[/I]....sound familiar?

I don't see how you can say it's a crutch. It's an obvious problem for us, and it's unrealistic to expect our offense to come out looking like New England or Indy when we're playing back ups to back ups on our offensive line. It all starts in the trenches, and if we're not getting the push up front, it's going to be hard to move the ball on the ground or in the air.

You can't tell me our injuries would not have an affect on our offense. And out of all of those teams, how many of them are playing with one starter on their offensive line?

You want to throw a quick slant with 9 in the box?? Good luck finding a passing lane.

We're going to loose.....

I missed that then. I understand why they are too. It's just allowing the Cards more and more chances. Like we're daring them to beat us.

We need to get some pressure on Warner or he will march down the field.

Do you mean we're going to get loose? That makes no sense.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

regardless its pathetic offensive performance.... and as usual late in the game we dont blitz and the zone gets eatin up ppl are tired.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

there is such a thing as an offensive philosophy. And for better or worse, ours is to pound it.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

If I were Gregg Williams, Gibbs would be getting the silent treatment all week.

Game over.

Okay.

This isn't worth arguing over. I'm just saying that the Redskins have a consistency problem, injuries be damned.

I don't know why people are attacking me like I said the Redskins should be the new Pats or anything. It's not like I expect them to come out and score 30+ points every game. I'm just saying they shouldn't be afraid to take shots sometimes and when they DO, to actually be consistent. And that injuries should have no affect on that.

I digress.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

I do not believe everyone is stupid on this board, call a spade a spade.

The playcalling sucks right now, and there are no excuses. We are playing to hold onto the lead, not trying to put the game out of reach. It is just a terrible mentality this team has had for the last several seasons.

Also our defense can't always play this pussy coverage.

I think injuries are a big reason for inconsistency.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

ok, D bail us out!

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

This kinda game is getting really frustrating to watch!

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

In all honesty, I hope we win but we really don't deserve to win.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

Damn, I'd be surprised if they don't qb sneak it in.

Re: Cardinals vs Redskins game thread
 

They still have to get the 2 points!

It's not over yet!
