Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
Watching Sunday Night Football and i'm seeing a lot of 4-3 looks from two 3-4 defenses. I would think Haslett has got to see the writing on the wall and start incorporating a better mix for the personnel he has.

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
Amazing how fast the pack will turn.
I'm going to start making a list of bums... week one was AH, week two was Doughty, week three is Rogers, Carter, Fletcher, and Haslett. I forget anyone? is there anyone left? lol. Look across the board I saw problems, I'm not sure if it was scheme or players not fitting the scheme or simply just players not doing their jobs. The players I saw giving up big plays, or not tackling; Buchanon Carter Rogers Hall crap I could list just about everyone on defense. It just seemed like when the team quickly became 14 points down every player on defense must have felt they had to make a play and ended up over reacting and on just about every play someone different broke down. |

Then again we could always move back to a 4-3.

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
I think we have to. If we don't it seems awfully stupid. What we're doing isn't working at all. Not even close. Take the damn ego out of it and adjust. We simply do not have the talent or personnel to be playing a full time 3-4.

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
Especially since we have a competent offense this year (though I don't know what the **** happened with Portis today). The NFC East is going to be wide open, the caoching staff (haslett) needs to get their shit in one sock.

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
I thought I remember hearing Shanahan saying around the time he was hired that he would have a 3-4 defense, but wouldn't abandon the 4-3, using 4-3 looks.

Shanny needs to do some soul searching this week. He has painted himself into a "win now" corner. |

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
We don't need to fire Haslett. We just need to pull Greg Blache out of retirement and hire him as a defensive assistant. Then when we lose against the Eagles, Packers, Colts, and Bears, we let Blache make the defensive calls against the Lions. Blache will somehow call a better game and the fans will say "See it's not the defensive line, it's the coach."

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
Not 1st rd talent in the draft. Some 3-4 DE prospects though.

Re: The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread
We don't need to pitch it in just yet. The Redskins need to swallow their pride and come together as a team, both players and coaches. here is a list of the changes that need to happen.
1. The Haynesworth-Shanahan spat needs to be over. Start him, play him, and use his strengths for your the teams benefit. 2. Commit to the running game. Not for one play, not for one quarter, not for one half, the whole game. 3.The defense needs to attack. Pressure, pressure, pressure. 4. Play our youth. Devin Thomas need to play and develop as a widereceiver. He can only get bettter in game time situation. 5. Spread the ball around. Not Just Moss and Cooley.
