Re: LOL @ Redskins

I can't believe people are asking for firings and people to lose their job.

You do realize these head coaches inherited a team with NO TALENT. I don't understand why Skins fans fall in love with all these players just because they know their names. The offensive line is still in shambles. It's going to take a while to rebuild that with good players. Like someone else said, we are an old team. It's going to take a while to get younger.

You cannot pin all these points on the the 3-4 defense. Don't forget that's the ONLY reason we have one four games this year - the turnovers they have been able to create.

Once again, I think it comes down to what I see over and over again; Vick had all day to throw with a comfortable five seconds, while McNabb usually only had three seconds or less to throw the ball.

That's why we were all scratching our heads when we saw people like Santonio Holmes, T.O, Boldin, Houshmandzadeh, Marshawn Lynch, Tomlinson etc, out on the market with no real interest by the Redskins. It appeared as if the coaching staff believed they could win with what they had. Tragically, they fooled the fanbase into thinking we actually had an competitive offense also.

We need to invest money in our offense. We haven't really done that over the years, most of our investments have been in the defense. Signing McNabb is worthless without putting the right pieces around him.

None of the players you mentioned would have made a huge impact here given the state of the O-line. Until that unit is addressed, we will have a below average offense.

I agree and disagree, Yes the O line SUCKS! But Vick was able to hit his receivers on the run. McNabb may not have the feet he once did but, the guy can still scramble and throw on the run. If we had more dynamic receivers we would have a more dynamic offense.

With that said, You are 100% correct about needing to address the O-line regardless.
