It's only one game, get over it

There is no way a QB fumbles the ball the same way without throwing it away.

Actually winning against the Jets means nothing against a 1-7 team. The next game is Dallas in Irving, Tx. If there isn't a major and I mean major philosophical facelift this week with the playcalling and Jason Campbell's reads this season will be over by week nine. Jason Campbell did not play well and his checkdowns were horrible missing Brandon Lloyd down the sidelines when he overthrew Randle El in the first half. That drive seemed to take JC's confidence and accuracy with the deep ball. Thjat overthrown passt to Cooley on third down was terrible.

Lastly, Joe Gibbs has shown a level of arrogance and stubborness that has caught up with him. He has not adjusted the playcalling with Sanders nor has he given Betts a chance to share the ball has he stated at the beginning of the year he would do. His poor sportsmanship shows a weakness and frustration that he has never exhibited before. If there is no chance by the time we play Dallas in two weeks, Gibbs needs to step down.

I don't agree with this--and it seems a bit contradictory. Saunders called those shot-gun drop backs, and JC fumbled three times. And, as you say, JC was not passing well. And we couldn't run-block for sh**. Why do you think that was not Saunders fault--this is HIS offense and HIS playbook--but Gibbs fault? We got our asses handed to us from top to bottom, just like everyone else who've played the pats this year. Plus, Gibbs shook Belichecks friggin hand already! What do you want, him to give a big sloppy kiss as well?

And if you really think the next game that matters is in Dallas, you are just wrong. We need to win the games we can--starting with the Jets. And if we win that one, however we do it, we've got a HUGE home game against the Eagles. I don't expect us to win in Dallas, though it would be great. Take care of the one's we should win, and get that wildcard in a muddled NFC.

Calling for a total tear-down after playing the pats is a mistake. The Pats are just that good right now. We've got the pieces, I believe, to make the playoffs, and the coaches to do it. Oh, and by the way, Spurrier lost this weekend--maybe he'll be available again soon. Should we go get him?

Ah, the silver lining to it all! But you just knew there'd be posts like this after this game if we lost. Gotta keep a bit of an even keel here.
