Redskins Offense: What's the Problem?

[PennSkinsFan]

In my opinion, the problem lies where it has for the past 5 years.

It's the Lines. Our ability to open up routes, both medium and the long ball are hampered by poor pass protection. Listen, these guys know it. They've said it. They are much better in run blocking. BUT, that is a problem in this offense. They need to be good in pass protection, and they simply are not.

On the other side i is about pass pressure. There is none, unless we blitz. The front four can not garner any ounce of consistency with pass pressure. You can have the best corner backs in the league, because I think we are at the top,, but how long do you really expect them to blanket a receiver. For the Redskins, the problem is, QBs consistently have ample time to scan the field when we rush 4. Fact is, Gregg Williams is wrong. That is why no other defensive coach does it on purpose. GW believed you could have a mediocre pass rush if you bring blitzes elsewhere and have good corners. BUT good team, consistently good teams, get pressure form the front four. The mediocre pass rush has not worked in DC in 7 years and until we address it, we are going to get picked apart at times by guys like Romo and Manning. You pressure them, they make mistakes, you don't they pick you apart.
