It's just totally absurd to me that we're 3 games in to this new regime and people are so up in arms over things. Did anyone really expect a smooth transition to a new offense, new QB, new defense, and 1/3 of the roster turned over? Where did the last few years get us anyway? 4-12 last year? A top 10 defense that created little sacks or turnovers and had people pulling their hair out all season?

the reason people are up in arms is this is the same stuff that happens every two years. New coaches, new schemes, new roster and it always has us getting no where and watching the playoffs from the coach. I think it is little to do with previous coaches than it is to do with the current play of these Redskins. Losing two games at the end, against one of the worst teams in recent memory and we could be 0-3 if not for a holding call (that luckily occurred at the end of the game with no time left) This defense is still not creating sacks or turnovers. Only 5 teams in the NFL have less than we do. All i see is us sending blitzes and no one getting to the QB and our DB's getting burned, our LB's getting burned giving up 3rd down conversions and being two tired to stop someone when we really need a stop. I hope things get better, and with Shanny i expect they will. But as fans we have been told year after year that this is a playoff team, a playoff roster, a coach that will get us there and that has happened what 3 times in 12 years. two of which came in the last six. It would stand to reason our stong suit was the defense, and we should have / or should be leaning on that while the offense works out the issues. But the overhall to a defense that doesn't have the personel just doesn't seem to be a great move.
