he couldnt have been more responsible or accountable if you listen to his post-game presser.


im feel like im in the twillight zone ... are fans really calling to fire a first year head coach who came into this shit show of an organization .. a first year head coach who seems to have a pretty lethal passing attack with JAG qbs as long as RG3 isnt under center ....

6 sacks = problem

49 pts against = problem

insurmountable holes in roster = problem

392 passing yards, 3 tds no ints = not the problem

He didnt take responsibility, he blamed the failure on the player when in fact he was out coached all game long. That sort of play call gets you fired, especially when you can't covert 3rd and 4th downs. If RG3 is lacking in fundamentals Gruden is too. He is so deficient in so many ways...can't call plays...can't convert 3rd downs, can't score in the redzone...the skins weren't this bad last year and we can't blame RG3 since he is not on the field anymore.

I thought we had to go for it there,” Gruden said. “Originally, I had a nice inside power play called, and then when they took the timeout, I saw they lined up and I saw they had a guy play bump and run on DeSean [Jackson] with a safety — not much help. So, I decided on a play-action pass and launch it to DeSean and try to get it. I got a little greedy. That’s all I can say, and we blew the protection.”

“Our tight end should’ve fanned out there [blocking Walden], our tackle should’ve fanned out there [blocking Werner],” the coach explained. “They both should’ve went out to help. It didn’t happen though. It was unfortunate. It was a big play in the game, though. That’s for sure. Should’ve caught it. Shouldn’t have run it. Should have done something other than what I did.”

I don't think we were watching the same team, the last time the Skins didn't look like a dumpster fire was from the second half of 2012.

Thank you. I thought I had imagined that we went 3-13 last year.
