Clark was too far off the ball too many times also, but we knew that his speed was down when we signed him. Its a bigtime liability against a QB that can make good touch throws.

Hatcher has a hamstring injury might miss Thursday game

If it's between Meriweather and Rambo, I'll always choose Meriweather but like I said before, he's a lesser of two evils. He sucks, but we don't have anyone else.

Stop with the drunk hysterics.
Yes, the Redskins should have won. But the team is better than last year. The offense is better under Cousins. We got away from running game.
Special teams TD and missed FG the difference.
There is nobody in our division that scares me. We are as good as any of them but we are deeper. Dallas and Philly are thin.
I like our chances.
It is a long season.

Offense, defense, and special teams did their part to contribute to the loss. We have some kinks to fix, but I think we could have a winning record. It's early in the season, lots of football left to play.

Looking at the yards the defense didn't play bad, but it was how they gave up those yards that sealed the deal

10 penalties for 131 yards, we are probably right up there in penalty yards.

Kia makes 2 40+ field goals, but when we need to have 3, a must situation for a tie late in the game and misses a 33 yarder. No fucking excuse, none period.

It didn't really hurt us going away from the running game though. Oddly enough. I think we should murder Dallas and NY this year. They're terrible.

Honestly I thought we would get blown out. We can play and I believe beat quality teams. The rematch should be a good one.

Cousins looks like a much more experienced qb than his number of starts show. Dude knows how to read the field. We took the loss, but the positives are that our offense looks totally competent. Our special teams lost this one for us. But I'm not saying anything that everyone doesn't know already. I'm just about over cobra Kai, no matter how cool his nickname is.

Philly is really weak vs. run. We should have exploited that more when we had the lead.

Special teams
Didnt run the ball enough.
Game.

Offense went three and out in the second half in key situations after the defense had kept the Iggles to a FG or had stopped altogether. That also contributed to the loss.

No! Cousins does not get a pass for missing game winning throws. Sorry Cousins had a Rex Grossman type day. We lost. We criticize Cousins like we criticize RG3 no passes.

If I'm a Philly fan I would be a bit concerned. They are looking thin in spots and defense is suspect.
