Kudos to Jim Haslett and Raheem Morris

My concern is that if Danny Amendola can light us up, what are we going to do against a GOOD WR? That was the softest zone I've ever seen. I'm not jumping off a bridge today like after most Skins losses considering RGIII played like a beast again, but damn if another player on the other team set a "personal best".

I miss Richie Petitbon.

Perhaps Haslett, like me, kept waiting for the front 7 to start dominating like they should have. They should have had Bradford on his ass all day long. Our front 7 did not show up for the game.

You know I thought that, but the Rams had a solid game plan. Shift the pocket some and do quick drops. We didn't even have time to get there...

True, but maybe when Danny F*cking Amendola racks up 130 yds in the first half, maybe he should have made changes.

If not for that one 50 yard catch and run, the entire 15 play series of throws to Amendola would have been a giant waste of time. If you excuse that one as poor execution, there was no reason to change anything because of Amendola.

16 targets for Danny Amendola is more about the state of the Rams offense than the Redskins defense.

I'm not sure what adjustment can be made when defensive players who should be winning their match-ups don't do so.

Going from a zone and giving up a huge cushion for the Wes Welker clone and not switching up and playing more man and bumping the guy at the line. They let him go and he burnt the defense. Regardless of the refs and the bonehead move of Josh Morgan, ultimately, the defense has to keep the other team off the scoreboard. That's what lost the game of us.

I agree with the idea that we should have been more physical with Amendola at the line.

That said, whether playing man or zone, we still would have gotten burnt with our front 7 exerting so little pressure against a lame-ass Rams line.

yup - the announcers, and all of us and the whole world were thinking that. Finally in the second half we saw some man but the damage was done. - just horrible mind numbing game plan and lack of adjustments by Haslett - is he just too stubborn to have done something sooner - ?

Actually when we switched to man we still got toasted.

The problem was up front.

Bottom line.

This isn't a good front seven when Orakpo is on the sideline. He makes the difference.
