Joe Gibbs has to let our offense play. I see this week in and weak out. We took one maybe two shots down field. We struggle offensively weak in and weak out. I am thinking its more to do with Gibbs being so afraid to let Al open it up than the injury bug. Point during the game : 5:40 left in the game, 3rd and 3(almost 4). We make this it keeps the ball in our hand and we can run more clock out. So what does he do, run the ball out of a 1 WR formation (the whole world knew he was running) and we get stuffed. So, ball goes back to the Jets. 2nd thing, GW brought more pressure this game than all year, and it worked. When Clemmons was pressured it forced the ball out of his hands quicker and basically caused incompletes, or minimal gains. So why did GW sit back and allow them to drive down the field? 3rd and 13 or 12 what ever it was, he sends 3 or 4 guys, Clemmons has all day, finds the open WR for a 15 yard gain. this stuff kills me. Why wouldn't you bring some pressure there?
This staff seems to be out coaching itself. Luckily we came out of the game with a WIN. I think we won dispite our coaching staff. Coach Joe has to let Campbell play the QB position. He has to allow the kid to move around, make plays. This play not to lose crap is why we are 5-3 and not 7-1.

We had been showing the rush the whole second half and we were averaging a little more than six yards a carry so the call was not that bad. Not bringing preasure on their last drive was tp prvent a TD. If (and we did) we give up a field goal the game is tied they hit the big play and they are up by 4. We had only scored one TD in 55min so why give up a big play and force us to score with little to no time on the clock.
