"I looked over to the sideline out of the corner of my eye and saw the coaches saying, 'Throw it,' and they wanted, potentially, an audible, get to an actual pass play," he continued. "I thought they were saying if you just throw it by Jamison [Crowder], in the general area of Jamison, there's an eligible [receiver] in the area and there's no penalty."

Lets be clear on this, KC did not call an audible.
He did not run the play that was called which was a run.
He did not audible to a pass which he said he thought that's what the coaches wanted.
He chose option C and threw the ball on a play when his 10 teammates are expecting a run.
This is a mental fuckup on the level of Chris Webber and Leon Lett.

Are you really going to come on here and blame this game on Cousins? I just can't get over that. He may or may not have screwed up that play but so fucking what? He dropped numerous dimes all day, the o gave that high school defense a 15 point lead w/ like 5:00 to play. I don't give a damn what happened on that play, it should have never even come down to that if we have someone that could make a stop.

Tweet from Mike Wise: Big picture, my friend @granthpaulsen is right: today isn't Cousins or Gruden's fault; the last four years haven't been their fault. It's the owner and the team president. The toxicity and mismanagement forbids continuity, stability, consistent winning and even a playoff victory


Yep it all started with Scot situation this OS and it's been a joke since. Dan Snyder fuck u

I'm kind of tired of the Snyder bashing. Yes he and Allen aren't the best people to work for but what did that have to do w/ the loss today? That prevent defense that sucked shit had nothing to do with the owner and his bitch boy.

Definitely gets tiring to hear about it after every loss. We had our chances to win, the front office didn’t blow this game.

Fact is we were not even supposed to be in the game and the team played their hearts out. For all the angst and Gruden bashing (I'm not a fan of his but this game he finally got some guts and went for the throat with the early 4th and 1 and the fake punt.) We just finished one of the most brutal stretches of opponents any team could imagine - 5 division leaders, and 8 playoff contending teams, while enduring brutal injuries.

Yes I was frustrated and everyone knew we would blow that lead, but we are a much better team than we were last year, we should finish 9-7 or 10-6 with our remaining schedule. If we don't then fine get rid of Gruden but as of now he has the team playing hard for him and 90% of his scheme is outstanding. He just needs to honestly evaluate his ability in the 2minute area.

90% doesn't matter if the 10% is always when it counts. He just can't get any unit to close out halfs or 4th quarters.

He needs to see it as a problem, but from what I have seen when Gruden sees a problem he has worked to get it corrected and usually succeeds. I think he gets this year in full and next year too but that he will be on the hot seat for sure.

I hope you're wrong about getting another year. Im officially on the fire him train.

The redskins had a 0.4 chance of losing after the 31-16 lead. Unbelievable, only this team. I'm telling u I'm so convinced it's a Snyder curse

Unbelievable and completely believable all at the same time. We've been drinking kool-aid and snatching defeat from the hands of victory for going on 3 decades.

Some teams say 0.4% chance of losing, the Redskins take it as a personal challenge.

And start anew? That's typical Skins fan. We have a group of guys fighting through injuries and a brutal schedule for the HC and each other. You build winners through fire NOT by firing them after three years of improved play and depth.

Idw start over either, especially because Kirk might walk if Gruden walks.

But damnit man! Something has to change. And I don't trust Gruden to know enough about defense to overrule Manusky and figure out how to stop the 2 minute sieve we currently have. Manusky seems pretty set in his ways too, you'd think after all the points we've given up at the end of the half he'd change something. But nah.
