Re: Its time for joe to step down.
I just don't really see any argument. Besides "he doesn't have that killer instinct" (what the hell does that mean exactly?) What is it exactly that Joe Gibbs did to lose the game today? I know everyone is pissed. I was pissed, my wife was pissed at me because I was such an asshole during the game, but I just don't see where you watched the game today and were like, Joe Gibbs has to go. Players didn't make plays. What genius play would you have called to score a TD inside of the 3 yard line? How could Gibbs have made different decisions to win the game? What exactly was it that Gibbs did to cost the Skins the game? I saw a bunch of players fail to make plays but I didn't see a coaching staff lose a game.

He chose to kick meaningless fieldgoals. Last time I checked, he won his first SuperBowl by going for it. |

Joe Gibbs is like the 35th most highest person on that list regarding failure to score in that situation. Lots of blame to go around. If we couldn't score in 3 plays, what makes you think the 4th would be the charm? Here's the big point though: the field goal STILL should have been enough to win. That's a five point lead with 4 mins to go and no timeouts. It doesn't take a very good defensive effort to hold the lead.

Bottom line, fourth quarter 4 minutes and change left. They run 50 gut, it's over. I firmly believe that. No, we have to run right. Lose 2 yards and are forced into a pass. Dance with who brung you. You would think a Hall of Famer would realize that. |

I think it's pretty nitpicky to argue outside run vs. inside run. Hindsight is 20-20.

Re: Its time for joe to step down.
While we're discussing play calling, I would have LOVED to have seen at least a few screen passes with all that pressure they were trying to bring.

Re: Its time for joe to step down.
We did have some screen passes in there.

Detroit is probably a playoff team this year. We are head and shoulders above them. Anyone with a pulse could tell you that. |

What makes you think we won't be ahead of them at the end of the year? What does Marinelli do that Gibbs doesn't? It's not like you know anything about the Lions...so I don't expect you to answer, but it'd be kind of cool if you would defend your argument intelligently for once instead of BSing your way around these parts for a few hours.

For what reason are we "head and shoulders above them" last I checked that was determined by wins and losses. They have more wins than we do at this point. Explain.

Re: Its time for joe to step down.
We were head and shoulders above them on that day. Overall we are probably very close when both teams are 100% healthy.
