Re: Gibbs press conf.

We have to have a greater effect with our passes before we can say we need to run more, it's a shame watching moss and randle el go to waste.

Moss hinted 2 weeks ago without coming out and saying it he wished the coaches would let the players do what they do best. UR right. Its a damn shame.

Re: Gibbs press conf.

I thought the play calling was fine today. Campbell can't see the field very well at this point and is not making good decisions with the ball, so they went with a heavy formation and pounded it. The Redskins outscored them 20 - 3 after about the halfway point of the 2nd quarter.

Also, the running game set Campbell up with a great opportunity to throw the game winning TD pass which he missed. If the Redskins can run the ball like they did today the rest of the way, we will be fine.

I agree with you here. I am a big Campbell fan, but he has not looked good in a while. He played pretty well at GB but had all the drops, I thought he made some good decisions against AZ when he had chances. Obviously last week was a debacle and he did not play well. I wondered watching him yesterday about his confidence level. It is so hard to know without seeing the All-22 and knowing all the route combos and coverages, but all those check-downs to Sellers were not designed to go to Sellers. Something was happening further down the field and either it was covered, or he thought it was covered, but I just have trouble thinking that the Jets played THAT well in coverage given what some other teams had done to them earlier in the year. It's just really hard for me to separate out what you can pin on the coaches, what you can pin on the players, and what you can pin on Jason checking down without having more info. Missing Moss again really killed me...though it did look like Jason put some more air under that one than he had previously so he is working on it. Just needs to get it out in the middle of the field when there isn't any deep saftey back there.

The offense needs to figure something out quick, but I'm just not all that confident they are going to get that much better. Defense struggled mightily yesterday as well and it felt like 2006 the way they couldn't get off the field on 3rd down.
