Turnovers don't just happen randomly to all teams. The Redskins can greatly reduce them. For example, as Niles Paul broke free, he could have wrapped both arms around the ball to ensure that we kept possession. His catch was at a critical point in the game when he needed to protect the ball. Fate didn't intervene; he just had a brain fart and ****ed up.

Point is, it's the first game with a new head coach. The team as a whole did look better, but a lot of brain farts. So now we see what type of coach Gruden can be. How he handles them. Let's remember two facts:
A) Joe Gibbs 1 went 0-5 (thanks JR for reminding me of that)
B) Jim Zorn 1 (and only) went 6-2.
There will be growing pains, but right now, I put Gruden closer to Joe Gibbs then Jim Zorn.
