Redskins vs. Squealers Gameday Thread

I know our defensive line is average, at best, but could Joe Barry be any less creative than a 90+ year old couple having sex. Not only was he blah, but he was doing things tonight which seemed to lack football nuances, IMO (ie, not allowing Norman to follow Brown in certain situations, staying in a soft zone when Roethlisberger was smoking it like a cigar, not blitzing enough to mask D-line weaknesses, taking away runs on the edge).

Barry showed no ability to put players in the right position for success. A long, long way to go for this season, and I still feel we'll be able to win this division. But if tonight's showing was a sample what we'll see from this defense throughout the duration, then cronyism could doom Gruden.

I agree with this whole post. Based on this game, its hard to have any faith in our defensive calls. Everything Pittsburgh did worked. Even the couple stops they got could have been 1st downs with better passes. Watching a 33 year old RB torch our defense was sad!

People reminiscing about Gregg Williams, he's getting his undisciplined defense ass kicked 28-0 by the 49ers. Williams sucks!! Overrated like his buddy Jeff Fisher.

My dad is a Rams fan, he hates Fisher. He is an overrated coach who rarely ever has produced a winning team.

I don't miss Gregg Williams, but I would prefer a much more aggressive defensive coordinator. I think the less talented you are up front, the more aggressive you have to be. Our pass rush was non existent tonight and we just sat back most of the game. Hard to cover Brown or stop Big Ben when he has all day to throw.

Say what you want about GW but he is hands down a better DC than Joe Barry. Barry is picking up right where he left off against Green Bay.

Wow really? You should look at last night's game, where the Rams made Gabbert look like Montana.

Agreed. I hate Joe Barry, what a joke. Everyone let him off the hook for the GB playoff game last year, and he comes out with the exact same crap this year. We're decent for one quarter, the opposing offense makes an adjustment, and we're deer in the headlights as they roll over us untouched for the final 3 quarters.

Time to hold some people accountable. Fire Joe Barry.

So who do we fire on offense? We scored 9 points in three quarters and wasted two red zone trips and a turnover by the defense in the first half.

not fire, hire, we should have hired foster or forte or forsett, etc. we have a shit ton of cap room, i don't know why we didn't sign a veteran to a short term deal.

jones is a d+ starter, thompson is a solid c grade 3rd down back. who knows what kelley is?

I am not ready to give up on Jones just yet ... close, but not yet.

At the same time, there was a point late in the game in which he got called for a false start. If I'm coaching, in goes Kelley and out comes Jones so I can yell at him for being a bonehead. Then Jones goes to the bench for a series or two.

Instead, he commits a dumbass penalty and, the next play, gets the ball and runs right into a clogged up hole - losing three yards.

No accountability.

The Steelers are as good as they looked but I dont think the Skins are as bad as they looked. This season will be like last year and the Skins will get better as the season goes on.

[mredskins]

Same shit different season.

We make a playoff game like every 3 years and that playoff game sets us back at least 2 or 3 seasons. The RGIII playoff game with his knee and last years now gives us basically one of the toughest schedules in the NFL.

I could have taken a lost last night i actually expected it but a ass whopping is what has me fawking mad today.

Just a shit team.

[punch it in]

Cousins a little off early, bouncing ball off of different players chests and face results in pitt td at end of half, tons of penalties, a fumble that kerrigan did not dive on at the steelers ten yard line, all of these things and yet it was a one score game with roughly ten minutes left. Were we not prepared for week one? We were not. Was it a total ass kicking by a better team from start to finish? NO IT WAS A RESULT OF ALL THE DUMB AND MORE IMPORTANTLY FIXABLE THINGS I MENTIONED AND WAS A ONE SCORE GAME LATE!!!!
Everyone relax.
