Redskins v. Jets Gameday Thread

[Ruhskins]

Just as I believe Scot McCloughan wants to bring his own handpicked QB to this team (he's already doing that with the RB position), I also believe he wants to do the same with the coach.

To me, what McC is building up in terms of personnel, doesn't quite match to what I think Gruden wants to do, at least offensively. I'd be curious to know how much influence McC has on whether Gruden gets fired or not.

At the end of the day, I don't think it'd be prudent to fire Gruden mid-season. Although he is not helping himself by continuing to be a Cousins apologist. And honestly, I think that is going to be his undoing.

I hope Snyder is past firing coaches mid season. I think he is. If he didn't fire Zorn mid season after that fake FG incident on national TV, then he's not firing Gruden. It's not happening folks.

What's going to happen is an even more vanilla style of play because kirk just can't beat anyone passing and his deep ball accuracy is non existent apparently. Basically be ready for more screens and dump passes. This offense is bad due to one position.... QB. We have talent everywhere else and good talent when healthy.

I think it will be tough for KC or any Skins QB to beat anyone passing when the opponent knows the running game is non-existant due to multiple injuries on the O line.

Late to the party but its the same party every week.

Offense is struggling. In a game where the Jets were begging them to do something and our defense have them every opportunity the offense did nothing.

Overall offense is playing at a sub optimal level even given the injuries.
Run game struggles in gameplan concepts, commitment, playcalling and execution.
Passing game is inconsistent. From Kirks decision making and inaccuracy to coaching miscues e.g. not targeting Garcon in the second half, not taking deep shots, not using DY etc.

Defense...where is the pass rush?
Where is run stopping?

Any half way decent Qb could have won yesterday. yes, garcon and a bunch of unproven receivers are probably the worst starting WR corp in the nfl yesterday. Yes, we are down to our 4th string TE as a starter, worst in the NFl yesterday. Yes, we were missing 3/5 of our projected starting O line, probably the worst starting O line in the NFL yesterday. yes, we only ran for 31 yards ...... worst in the NFL yesterday.

but those are just excuses.

going into yesterday, cousins probably had the least talented and experienced starting 10 guys on offense of any NFL team yesterday .... but he should have won it for us.

damn you Kirk and your reasonable "excuses" for why you single handedly didnt win us the game! damn you!

well yes because the Jets Defense isn't in the top 5 at all...

Lets forget KC is not progressing at a satisfactory rate or that Gruden doesnt seem to be adjusting at halftime....at all just for a minute. Our run defense has been hooooorible.

This is one of the things I dont understand about the "Well did you expect us to go to the SB this year" crowd. I didnt expect a good year win/loss wise. I do expect the coach, who takes a lead into halftime, to attempt to win the game in the second half. If a win doesnt happen, fine. If a win doesnt happen because the coach shits the bed, im going to call the coach out for shitting the bed. If it happens once, no big deal. If it happens every single game the guy has coached, thats a problem.

I wasnt against Jay like some here when he was hired. Most claiming it was just a good ole boy hire. But when he either cant or wont make adjustments during the game, thats not good coaching. When he cant or wont make changes to his system to fit the talent, thats a problem. After a year and a half, thats what I see out of Jay. A guy that cant or wont change to get a victory. He comes across as the Chip Kelly of his specific brand of the WCO.

Lets also not forget, his replacement took what he had in Cincy and clearly improved them as a unit.

There is no proof CCR only speculation much like the delusion that anyone in their right mind would compare Cousins to Manning, Luck or Farve

you mean like this:

"Kirk Cousins is a franchise quarterback, he will be a top-10 quarterback in this league no doubt about it,"
