Not a hater yet, I just expect him to play better. He got some lucky breaks or he singlehandly losses the game.

Best:
Defense as a whole. Saw a couple of bone-head plays. RAK pissed me off when get caught off-sides twice on the same drive. But, Dhall was a beast.

Worst,
Anyone with involvement with the offense. Are you serious? I don't know if it's the scheme or the players, but it's not getting executed.

When Hunter Smith was punting out of bounds away from Hester, did anyone else think the officials were being a little ridiculous with their spots? It was almost like they were deliberately penalizing the Skins for not punting to him. Seriously, the officials were running sometimes 15 or 20 yards away from where the ball appeared to go out of bounds.

The spots seemed generous but it's tough to see where exactly the ball goes out on TV.

McNabb was bad but he wasn't Cutler-horrible. He made some nice throws. Had Armstrong not dropped that wide open deep pass we might be talking about a different game. Our Oline was horrible and didn't give him much time and i think he got a little jumpy. W/ a better...decent oline McNabb will play alot better.

Worst was McNabb seeming to panic in the pocket
Best (aside from Hall) was watching Orakpo cause HAVIC and chase down Cutler

Well, I think the system reason has some merit to mis-timing and missed reads, but Donovan has had his bad side show up and missed some easy ones. Hell, even Jason Campbell could hit Zach Miller right on the money for the touchdown on a play very similar to the one to Davis, even if Hue Jackson had a completely different terminology that Shanahan's.

Im not really buying the "get use to the system" excuse right now with McNabb. He is a pro bowler, vetern QB who is not a stupid guy. We are 6 games into the season and he understands the basic concepts of a west coast offense he learned in Philly.

He flat out missed the end blitzer on the pick six, that was clearly on him and unexcusable. He missed bad on probably 10 throws. Couple people dropped very catchable balls, that didnt help.

I understand the "he will have games like these every now and then" but this is now 2 weeks in row where he has played pretty poor.

The team continues to win these close games despite McNabb. Maybe it's "magic", the only team in the NFL with a winning record that has given up more points than they've scored.

As for the Bears, I've never seen a team turn the ball over on five straight possessions, talk about self-destruct.

Right we ve been lucky in that regard and hats off to Haslett and the defense. You cant ask for a defense to play any better on the road.

[Chico23231]

Our 13 first downs was a season-low, and we converted only 2 of 15 third-down attempts.

Wow those stats above is simply mind numbing. I wouldnt mind Shanny getting more involved with the offense with Kyle. We should be playing better than that, granted that Chicago's D is underrated IMO, but they are not that good.

[Jontrem]

No they aren't that good at all. Were we able to run a single successful screen to a RB or Te yesterday? I can't remember

For some reason, maybe Gtripp or SS33 with film review can help me out, we cannot run a RB screen. Probably the poorest team I can remember running it. We ran like a 5 yard TE screen to Cooley, ok pick up, not great.

Rogers and McIntosh have to be re-signed. They're solid.

Totally agree on both, wondering what McIntosh will want for resigning. I am not sure who Rodger's agent is but even with the hands issue I can see him being tough to re-sign
