Even if Smith improves he's never going to be a guy who can drop back 40 times and win a shoot out. He's never been that guy. If we can't run and stop the run we're probably not going to win. But we've won 4 out of 6 so far with that formula so that's not a bad thing.

He was throwing the ball about 35 times a game with KC.

Right, but the point is he's not a drop back and beat you from the pocket consistently type of QB. He's best when the running game is clicking and he can work off play action or RPO's, screen game, boot game, etc.

If the roles were reversed, I would be calling for Gruden's head with these type comments.

Dallas had 52 seconds to move the ball, and thanks to AS, still had a timeout, dumb head coach right there. Glad Jerry loves him.

Re: Dallas Post-Game Thread

Garrett has to be fired after this yr but in all fairness he doesn't handle Player personnel so he is dealt with what JJ gives him.

Re: Dallas Post-Game Thread

It was good game for Redskins defense, especially Dline's performance! I'm absolutely impressed by AP and his determination - playing through injuries and pain at his age.

I noticed several of you guys are bashing Alex. There are more factors to offense issues, other than Alex.. Gruden's conservative playcalling, weak Oline performance (season overall, not this game), and injured receivers/RBs. Beside missed open receivers, I like what I see from Alex as he showed he can throw further than 10 yards unlike last few games. Also, I noticed almost every time offense gets off from the field, Gruden and Alex gathered to discuss about recent plays - I believe this shows how much Alex and Gruden are still learning about each other. I hope with time, we will see offense improving later in the season.

We also must remember that we all knew Alex's limitations when we traded for him; we knew that Alex isn't likely to carry team to wins, and we knew Alex isn't playmaker. I'm little bit surprised how some people are upset about Alex's performance, it is as if we are expecting Alex to play like Aaron Rodgers. Alex is a good QB when he has good players around him, we are almost there. If we had good reliable WRs, I think our offense would be playing much better.

Re: Dallas Post-Game Thread

He also had Kelce and Hill on the offense who are both better than anyone we have. My only gripe is Jordan Reed not getting more looks. He's our best pass catcher get him the ball. As matty said we are 4-2 and really should be 5-1 if it wasn't for that fluke Loss to iNdy

Wrong! Indy kicked the crap out of us. We really should be 4-2 and we are.

Yeah there wasn't anything fluky about it. We weren't prepared, and it showed.

Re: Dallas Post-Game Thread

That is back to back games where the Skins were up double digits in the 4th quarter and yet the game came down to the final seconds. I think I am going to have to double up on my blood pressure medications on game days.

Re: Dallas Post-Game Thread

Wow!! The sideline pisser Kowitca was responsible for this penalty being called, great job!!

Controversial penalty on #Cowboys LP Ladouceur was result of #Redskins ST coach Ben Kotwica noticing what he considered illegal movement of ball during prep and bringing to Jay Gruden’s attention. Gruden alerted game officials and encouraged them to watch for it.

How great would it have been if Justin Tucker's kick had bounced off the upright?

DOINK would have been great to say to a Ravens fan as one describes our win, knowing that it also described their loss.

Ahhh opportunities lost
