The State of the Redskins (MERGED)

We're a complete, utter mess. We'll need a complete overhaul whenever Joe decides to move on. We have no QB, and the defense - the supposed rock of our team - is terrible. I just hope all the talk about Gregg Williams replacing Gibbs one day stops now.

they didnt have a bye week then

First you need to find a GM and trust him to find a coach to use the talent right. Use the draft wisely something we havent done since danny boy been here. Stop sign these dumb over price fa that just want to come here and get paid.

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 10-22-2006, 10:28 PM

One thing that would help the offense and defense would be a threat of a passing game on offense.

What's up with the offensive line? The last two weeks both Chris and Jon have given up sacks in the the same game. I've never seen that happen once let alone two weeks in-a-row

because the ends know we are done running the ball and all they have to do is go after the QB. any quality DE will be able to beat the tackle if they can just straight rush the QB. its when they have to play both run, screens, and pass rush that slow them down a bit.

Samuels and Jansen have been awful and for the most part have gotten a free pass from all the criticism of the offense this year. And Samuels can't use the excuse that he has to protect the blindside anymore.

What's most sad though is that Chris Samuels will probably get another Pro Bowl nod yet again this year. Samuels continually making the Pro Bowl is as much a farce as Monk continually not making the Hall of Fame

our defense just isn't good enough. we won't make the playoffs, and even if we did, we don't have enough to win. not unless everyone turns into all-stars overnight.

dmek25 · 10-23-2006, 06:43 AM

its all about evaluating talent. paying more money for a player doesn't equal a better player. instead of paying AA, the skins should have kept Clark, and brought in a quality corner. and our o line play has been terrible. i think they are going to get portis killed

dmek25 · 10-23-2006, 06:43 AM

and as much as i hate to say this, walt harris is an upgrade over wright and rumph

yeah, but the grass is always greener :/. too bad though, we've let a few good players go the last couple of years, while replacing them with (generally more expensive) less talented players.

That Guy · 10-23-2006, 06:49 AM

hindsight. champ couldn't be paid cause we paid lavar. at the time that was widely regarded as a mistake though (if lavar didn't get injuried so quickly afterwards, maybe it wouldn't have seemed so bad). the first year after the trade, bailey was in 4-5 nationally televised games and looked terrible in every single one of them.

this year he looks unstoppable though.

Samuels needed help yesterday, but it seems like all year we haven't given the OL much help from the TEs or backs. Gibbs went a little overboard with all the max protect stuff last year, but you know at times the offense functioned a hell of a lot more effeciently that it has this year.

it worked last year, so we're going to scrap it this year

.

it's harder to protect when the other team knows you're passing 90% of the time, and right now, we run portis left and right (outside), get stuffed, and quit running for the rest of the game. our screens and runs all seem to go right into the flat, so i'd think it'd be a pretty easy offense to defend. even last year we didn't use the middle of the field, but at least we went deep and kept people off the line.

dmek25 · 10-23-2006, 11:12 AM

we run 4-5 screen passes a game, that haven't worked for crap. we have run outside consistently, which hasn't worked. and we use minimum protection for brunell, which hasn't worked. can anyone say adjustments?
