Stop Overreacting

I'd just like to suggest that the reason we lost the game Sunday was because of this type of overreaction coming from team management (Snyder).

For years, Snyder has been a typical fan - reactive. His track record of trading draft picks, firing coaches every year or so, and bringing in aging free agents are all what happens when a fan becomes an owner.

Thankfully, it seems like after years of overreacting, the owner has started to become more forward-looking (slightly) and put a strategy in place that will put the Redskins on the right path in the long-term - focusing on building through the draft and finding proven players in free agency who are at their prime.

I think it is time for everyone to step back and take a collective breath. On Sunday, the Redskins played a team that may have not been significantly more athletic but played and functioned as a unit that has been together for years. The reason the Giants are such a fantastic team in fact is because of continuity and good coaching -

I think the verdict is still out on whether or not we have the latter but if the Redskins continue to react year-in and year-out they will surely never have the former and never be the type of team we all want.

When can you not over react when they are 0-5? or loose to the Lions!?

Nope.....losing to the Rams would send alot of people over the edge.

I dont consider my comments to be overreacting, Im just a realist, and Im calling it how I see it. Although I dont always agree with others opinions on here, I still enjoy reading the craziness that comes with a FAN MESSAGE BOARD. If you dont want to read it, move to the next page.

With that said, Zorn better open up the passing game this week. His playcalling is the biggest problem IMO, so Im hoping we can forget about last week, and put a beatdown on a pathetic Rams team. If not.......be prepared because its gonna be a crazy week on the Warpath.

Hail!
