I think Williams just needs to play more. He's average at best...but we could use that.

Banks in very limited offensive snaps doesn't look like an NFL quality receiver. In a package role, that probably doesn't matter. As the third receiver, might as well keep clueless Galloway out there.

Why? At best he's average. Let's get Banks, a promising young player some experience and playing time for the future. Williams doesn't have a future playing wr here. I'd also bring up Austin too. Playing Galloway and Williams serves no purpose.

I'd play Austin on offense over Banks, but I do think we need to approach it with a "win now" mentality.

The reason I advocate releasing Galloway isn't because he has limited future value (that's obvious), but because he's hurting us in the short term as well.

WORST... this guy Lick and Rabach simply can't hold up against big strong DLinemen. I have no idea why Dock isn't even suiting up. I'm starting to really question this coaching staff.

Best...BRANDON BANKS. He's gotta get on the field more.

Roydell Williams>Devin Thomas>Joey Galloway

Best: Banks- awesome game, Haynesworth- had another great game-two in a row

Worst:

Oline is horrible. Rabach is a good dude, but we need a center.

Is there no one out there better than Heyer? Anyone?

Benching McNabb on the last drive. The last drive? W/ our line sucking the way they did?

I do give some props to the Lions. They've got a decent team. Suh? That dude is a stud. They've got a good pass rush. Stafford will be very good in the next couple years.

Yesterday was worse than STL bcuz we had the lead late and let it slip again.. Coaching was a joke on offense all game. No run game at all, Atv gets injured again, TW got destroyed by Vanden Bosh.. Jamal brown is still injured. Cooley dropped 2 really catchable balls, Carlos took a horrible angle on that last TD. Landry continues to celebrate a big hit even when CJ gets a first down SMH.

But I'm most disappointed in Mike Shanahan, how in gods green earth do you basically give up the game? That's bush league IMO, we all knew damn well grossman wasn't going to lead us down field, heck I'd rather have JC any day over that bum!!
Shame on MS

Glad someone finally pointed out that once again the Skins led the game in the 4th quarter and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Oh, while I was typing that note, Calvin Johnson just caught another pass...

If we can develop just one receiver a year, we'll have a top level receiving corps by 2012. Our intentions should be that we continue to give Anthony Armstrong every opportunity to become a good NFL receiver.

2012 IS our year!......sadly the world will be ending December 21, 2012.
....Damn Mayans

Banks - Anyone who cried about Rock Cartwright IN JAN - APR should stop now if they haven't already.
Albert - Holding drawn, penetrated the backfield to help stop best, and a great sack on Stafford
Landry - Just came to play

Worst
OL
McNabb's pick 6
Phil93's offside
Refs

Watching the game over I think had the refs done a better job Phil93 wouldn't have been called offsides. The snapper flinched before PD moved. Penalty should have been called on the Lions

McNabb threw a pick six? I knew he threw a pick but I didn't know it was returned for a touchdown.

And the players said it after the game on that field goal attempt. Their long snapper moved the ball, which is why half our line jumped. That one is on the officials. They need to see what's happening on the los better.

Worst:

(hat tip to Ruhskins for reminding me to post this): Our 1st Down Offense. Hard to win when you're facing these 2nd down situations: 2nd and 18; 2nd and 8; 2nd and 15; 2nd and 5; 2nd and 20; 2nd and 10; 2nd and 6; 2nd and 18; 2nd and 6; 2nd and 13; 2nd and 2; 2nd and 15; 2nd and 11; 2nd and 4; 2nd and 4; 2nd and 11; 2nd and 13; 2nd and 10..

So that's more than 50% of the time we've essentially gained zero yards or lost yards on first down

I don't know what the league average is, or even really what the Redskins average is but if you're going to give your offense just three downs basically you might as well be playing in the CFL

Boy, I knew our first down offense had a really bad day after the game, but I had no idea it was that bad. That's horrible. I mean out of those 18 2nd downs, 11 of them were 10 or more yards. Only 4 of those gained at least 5 yards. Atrocious.
