Re: WFT v Steelers game thread
What a win. The first half looked like a typical Redskins game on Monday. Shoot ourselves in the foot play after play. At one point I just thought this was going to be a blowout. Then we got that lucky 3 points at the end of the first half.
Since the Joe Gibbs days, this team couldn’t win on Monday, nor could they make any halftime adjustments. Jay Gruden was the worst second half HC I’ve ever seen. The Redskins would get a slim lead in the first half and just try to hang on by their fingernails. Whatever Gruden did at halftime - a successful HC should do the OPPOSITE. Since Joe Theissman was hurt on a Monday night, we’ve sucked at these games. The infamous “BODY BAG” game was on Monday night. I just read we LOST something like 16 out of 18 Monday night games - that a winning percentage of just .110. I remember staying up very, very in Afghanistan in late 2006 to see the Deadskins lose (aI think to Dallas). The game was on the military network like at 2:00 am and I had to get up at 6:00am. So I sacrificed a much needed sleep at Bagram Ai Base to watch out team suck on Monday night. I watched them do it again in 2006, again losing on a Monday game - this time in Iraq. Same thing, I lost a night’s sleep to watch our team LOSE. Those days are over!! This team is changing for the better. This team has CHARACTER and that why they won this game. The Steelers double-teamed McLaurin AND Chase Young. Gibson was hurt very early on. Yet players, many cast offs from UDFA or other teams, fought hard to stay in this game. There are still holes on this team, but overall the Rivera era is here!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
