Skins vs. Cards Positives + Negatives

Is Sean McVay the right guy for the Skins? Is he the guy who turns RG3 into that pocket passer? I have my doubts

Offense has been the biggest issue this season, yet no one is scrutinizing the offense because they are too busy bitching about the defense.

I personally question the offensive play calling in light of the fact that we have such weak offensive line. Teams are very aggressive in stopping the run and trying to disrupt the passing. I don't know why we don't throw more slants or screen passes to take advantage of the opposing defense's aggressiveness. It seems that the team waits until the late in the 3rd or 4th quarter, to throw a screen pass to Roy Helu that goes for like 40 yards. We also can't seem to convert 3rd and short situations, I know this past Sunday there were about two or three (maybe more) situations, where we couldn't convert in short yardage situations.

The offense doesn't get a pass, our OL is still terrible, Forster hasn't done anything to improve our young G and T (Bugel would have) we have a rookie OC finding his way. I question Forster.

If he is related to the McVay football family that worked in Tampa Bay, that is all that is required of him. We are now Tampa Bay North, as if the Bucs have won anything in this century.

Note to Bruce Allen:

The Redskins are not a ****ing coaching family reunion!!!

This is what bothers me. We have become a "good Ole boy" team.
We need to hire the best person for the job not payback favors.

What does Doug Williams do exactly?

[SFREDSKIN]

Sean McVay is the grandson of John McVay one time 49er GM during the 80's responsible for drafting and acquiring Steve Young, Rice, Lott, Haley, Craig, etc.

There is plenty to dislike about Haslett. I am not giving him a pass.

But to be fair, since DHall went down we don't have anyone who can really stick to #1 receivers. This is a really hard problem to scheme around.

The defense played well until DHall went down and then hasn't played all that well since.

While it may be a hard problem to scheme around, name me the top shutdown corners in Dallas and Philly. They don't have them, they adapt their scheme to their talent. You spent a 2nd round pick on Amerson to make him a top corner, put him in position to do so. Breeland is developing, put him in positions to succeed.

While DHall being out hurts the defense, it shouldn't cripple the other 10 players remaining. Haslett's defensive calls are pretty bad and have been forever.

I think our ineffective offense is crippling the defense more than DHall's injury. We are at the bottom of the league in 3rd down conversion percentage; it's funny that you mentioned Dallas, they are first in the league in 3rd down conversion.

He needs to take what Tony Peters did to our offense last week and apply it to his defense. Do not ask Biggers, Breeland, Riley and the two slowest safety's in the NFL to cover for a long period of time. He needs to start all out blitzing a lot more, make the QB get rid of the ball quicker and ask them to tackle. Obviously asking them to cover with a 4-5 man rushes won't work. It's proven it won't work.

And to be fair to your point Has and DHall looked good against Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Jags.
