Re: 2 Qualms with the loss

For a bunch of people who said Dallas would blow us away and the game would not even be close I see a bunch of complaning. Most of the people here did not even think the game would be close so how can you even complain because we did better than you thought we could do.

I predicted a Dallas blowout IF Gibbs/Saunders called a conservative game. I'm happy that Jason Campbell has finally been freed. It gives opposing defenses that much more to gameplan moving forward. I like the Skins chances at starting a good run for the post-season, but it MUST start next week with a win at Tampa.

I predicted a blowout, and I'm happy to say I was wrong. A play here and there and the Skins could have won this game. I was impressed with the overall effort. I hope it carries over to the Tampa game, because it is a must win in my opinion.

I predicted a Dallas blowout and was surprised as to how well the Redskins offense was able to compete. The defensive secondary broke down, just as I thought they would. The secondary scheme just doesn't seem to work as well without Sean Taylor closing in on those long bombs.

I was pissed off the Skins couldn't pull off the victory. The game was right there for the taking. A couple of plays was the difference.

1) The Rocky McIntosh interception that was called back because of instant replay review.
(That was a catch. The ball never hit the ground.)
2) The Jason Campbell interception at the end of the game.
(He should have run the ball.)

I agree with your number 2 but that int the ball did hit the ground and he did not even have control of the ball when he roled over. I think if ball was not moving when he rolled over then it would have been a int.
