What's Wrong with the Redskins?

Does it strike anyone else bizarre that JC has so few open targets to throw to on passing downs, and against a secondary that is not elite. Again, i'm starting to wonder if there is a serious coaching issue here w/ the WR corp. They drop passes all the time. They run poor routes. They fail to get open consistently.

Very little chance of winning in this predicament. Stan Hixon should be on the hot-seat IMHO. His group is consistently not up to the challenge, regardless of the rookie class who we make excuses for or the vets who continue to drop passes on critical downs.

Have to laugh my ass off!!!!!! Still think I am on Prozac now Goat for going along with Matty and thinking the Gmen would dominate? Granted I was joking in the other thread about bringing Norv back as the OC once SD fires him, but at this rate I don't think it is such a bad idea do you? Norv set records with the likes of Brad Johnson, Michael Westbrook, Albert Connell, a much younger James Thrash, Stephen Alexander, and of course Stephen Davis. Shoot, Norv had more offensive output with good old Gus, Westbrook, Thrash, Terry Allen and the old man Shepperd that what we saw today. Zorny has more collective talent on both sides of the ball(with the exception at CB) than Norv did, and will be lucky to hit 9-7. The injuries play a big part, as does the inept play, but I think the WCO has been figured out by now and is now passe.

What's wrong with the Redskins? How about playing better teams? You know, teams with better defenses, offenses, coaches and players. Mix in a tea spoon of "lack of heart" and you got an average at best team dish ready to serve disappointed fans.

Disgusting!

I agree completely. We have a long, long way to go before becoming a good team. And we're either old, not very good, or both at some critical positions.

Zorn said he liked to break the season down into quarters.

3-1 in the first quarter, 3-1 in the second quarter, 1-3 in the third.

Someone on here pointed out that our 3rd quarter of the season has been no better than 1-3 for like 4 or 5 years. And the trend continues....

Yeah. The month of November has not been kind to us this decade.
