Because we wouldnt have had such a high draft pick. Lol. Seriously though i think any FO in their rite mind with Rex Grossman as their qb would have tried to deal for that pick and RG-3. It wasnt exactly a Tom Brady- ish pick.

My whole argument was that you shouldn't be calling for heads but it is kind of disgraceful and reflects very poorly on the front office on the state of the defense.

While I don't like Mike as a personnel guy, and I think he needs to rediscover his offensive genius, I'll take Mike running the offense completely over Kyle's game-day performances.

The calls for Hazlett's head are justified too IMO. Tell you what, Mike letting his kid, and the NFL, know Kyle's holding this offense back, and then booting the defensive coordinator because he's holding the defense back, could look desperate and I'm sure ESPN would try to spin it that way, but it would really show Mike is serious about finding a winning combo. We have the talent, get the "brains" on game-day sorted out and let's win a few against the good teams!!

I say we just fire everyone. Make RG3 the Head Coach, and leader of the Redskins Organization. He doesn't need plays. Just take the shotgun snap from 8 yards and play street ball.

I thought Kyle did a good job today except when he decided to run the option with RG3 and Niles Paul on 3rd down late in the game. WTF was that bullsh*t? Rather see a shovel pass or a WR screen.

Robert looked genuinely hurt to me by this loss, almost quizzical, like "what else can I do?" He has to feel let down by the way this season is going. Especially considering his high level of play. Shanahan has done a bad job, in my honest opinion, of giving him a strong supporting cast with an attitude, and he's had 3 years to do so. Not halfway into his rookie season, and already it's all on his shoulders. Winning is a mindset, and that comes from the top.

I think Robert would be Genuinely....insulted (and possibly amused) by your suggestion.

Let's not get into an iggles situation here -- firing Shanahan for the defense's failings is as bad as Reid firing Castillo for the offense's failings.

Yeah but if they don't have a bad day, they probably would not have been in that position at the end of the game. The offense had 3 turnovers, were 0-2 in the red zone and could only come up with 3 points off two turnover by the defense.

I think what the defense did at the end was terrible, but let's not forget those offensive miscues that would have made the game very different.

Losing two of our best pass rushers in week two didn't help at all. We need more of them two. Hey at least now I hope the FO see the value in not teading a guy like Rak for some picks, unless said picks are used on more pass rushers which would seem rather redundant.

We definitely have a shot to win 7 or even 8 games, but we'd have to be sharper than we looked today to do that.

Every team has injuries though. Look at the Giants last year. Half their defense was hurt and they plugged other guys in and they didnt miss a beat. At some point you have to look at Haslett and his track record and stop making excuses.

Ruh I don't disagree with you on the fact that if we didn't have a Bunch of turnovers the game would have been different. I don't think the Giants would have had a chance to compete with us without all the TOs.

You can build super bowl teams around two good to great pass rushers. Ever since Orakpo went down Kerrigan has not been relevant except for the interception, but he is not primarily there to cover anyway. If Orakpo comes back healthy we need him, still we obviously need depth on this team. Our Defense is lacking in depth and it is showing in our secondary, our d-line and our linebackers, or in every single phase.

...but Eli was bad today until there were about 7 minutes to go in the game.
Either way, the Giants' offense hasn't clicked the last three times we've played em. Have no idea why...

True, but i wouldn't call Orakpo and Kerrigan great pass rushers.
