And this is exactly why you don't give Smith a LTD. He's a JAG w/ nice rims, looks good on the outside but it has a bad motor.

Preston Smith is a bust. They didn't even mention that he was abused on running plays, too.

Also, Doctson had another nothing game.

I'm not a negative person but it's obvious to me that these two guys can't play.

I'd imagine the storm had some sort of impact on attendance but "home field" has been a problem since we moved from RFK

In the words of Bigly:

Sad!

We have seen just about 5 years from Gruden. He will never be a great hc. He can't even make simple in game adjustments.

I say let's talk about the HC, drafts, front office, etc. after the season. One loss isn't the end of the world just like one win doesn't mean we're going to the Super Bowl. Take a breath folks.

This is the 5th year of having games like this.

I give Gruden credit - it's hard to keep a job in this league for 5 years of mostly mediocre football. 9-7 is his high water mark, and I don't see it getting any better this year.

Mediocre is being nice. Jay Gruden wins something like 45% of his games in the NFL.

Not when you come in on the heels of several other failed coaching staffs and a fan base clamoring for consistency and a quarterback finally coming of age (KC). We all knew he had some guaranteed time to turn it around. He hasn’t.

Yesterday was pretty terrible. I thought playcalling was terrible, the offensive line play was terrible, even Trent Williams committed some stupid penalties, and of course, our wide receiver play was terrible.

At least our defense started to shut things down, but they looked horrid at the start of the game. A complete 180 from what the 'skins looked like last week. And judging by how the Cards got spanked yesterday, I'm starting to feel like, maybe, week one was actually a gimme game more than I'm willing to admit.

Looking at the next few weeks, the Packers, Saints, and then Panthers? Don't quite know what to think of the Panthers just yet, but the Packers and Saints? Can this team really afford to go through the first quarter of the season at 1-3?

The Bucs are also 2-0, its still way too early to look at the teams ahead, I just dont see us at better than 9-7 or worse than 7-9. It's basically the same as it has been

Agreed. Even if Jay is starting to have a pretty solid history of unpreparedness behind him, firing him after one loss, or even mid-season, wouldn't solve anything.

Packers aren't that good. We should have beaten the Saints last year if the coaches didn't piss the game away. We can win one out of two. Carolina is a loss.
