Re: Bittersweet post game thread.

First off KC is arguable the best team in the NFL right now. We played them at their house, a historically hard place to win. I think we held our own considering myself included had this team going 0-4 to start the season after the Philly game. We have lost to Philly and KC and have beaten LAR and OAK. All 4 of those teams seem fairly legit this season, especially their offenses.

Last night once Norman went down it was going be hard for us to win this game. That had to have thrown Greg's plan into a tail spin. Offense needed to step even more so, they did not.

I will agree at least in the beginning here the gamble with PG/Djax is starting to bite this team in the foot.

Still plenty of games to go, at 2 and 2 we are right in the mix with the NFC East.

HTTR!

Re: Bittersweet post game thread.

I don't know about Alex Smith being over the line on that last big pass, but in my opinion, that would have been a non-issue had Doctson held onto that TD pass. Boneheaded penalties and turnovers willl kill a team's chances almost 100% of the time, and last night was no different. But still, if KC turns out to be the best team in the league, then what does that say about the Redskins, who had so many injuries on defense last night, kept shooting themselves in the foot, and still had an opportunity to come out with a win? I think our team has taken the next step.

Re: Bittersweet post game thread.

In my mind, the defensive penalties at critical moments that led to points was the biggest difference in the game. We don't even need Doctson to catch that ball at the end if we don't allow the Chiefs all the extra opportunities to score.

Overall can't be too disappointed in the first four games. 3-1 and 4-0 would obviously be better, but 2-2 puts this team in a good position in the division and the NFC.

It's critical to get guys healthy during the bye week and come out strong. I suspect we crush SF pretty handily and get on a roll.
