Things to look forwards too after bye

[mooby]

You forgot to mention we can all look forward to some more conservative playcalling against a team with one of the worst secondaries in the NFL. I'm sure Portis and Betts and Sellers will have plenty of catches two weeks from now. I hope we come out trying to attack the Lions' secondary but it probably won't happen.

We damn well better be "conservative" (as the young'ns like to call it). Last thing I want is that Detroit offense on the field for the majority of the game. Keep it out of their hands. Control the clock, win the game.

If I didn't care about the Skins, I'd say I hope they throw it 50 times and get blown out and then see what everyone here has to complain about next.

I know we don't want the Lions offense on the field for a lot of the game, but we have to take shots downfield against that porous secondary of theirs. I'm fine with getting a little conservative early and controlling the clock and scoring points, but if we get a good lead, say anywhere from 7-14 points, we need to put the game away and make sure they can't come back on us. The Lions have a very potent passing offense but their offensive line isn't good, which means we need to get in some pressure on Kitna and force him into bad decisions. Overall though there isn't any reason as to why we should lose this game.

Well yeah, run, run, play-action pass. Thing is we have to complete those passes. Had we done that this week we'd probably be looking at 3-0. But since we didn't there's the perception that we didn't even try.

I won't feed into your fear...

Keep the faith.

Hail to the Redskins!


You got another coach in here we're hiring Albert Connell's. Suck it up.

It was tough to watch todays loss live, but if I know Gibbs you'll see a different team in week 5. In Gibbs I trust and HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

[Luxorreb]

Perhaps I'm kidding myself, but this is the first season under Gibbs starting Campbell as the man. If you don't believe in Gibbs then perhaps you should check out Home Page - Philadelphia Eagles.

In Gibbs We Trust!

Campbell is the real deal. First QB in over 10 years that can make it happen! Stay tuned!

And that is exactly the problem, new QB, same game plan, result? A lose that should have been an easy victory.

Trust him all you want, if it wasen't for his previous success he would be the absolute laughing stock on this site, as well as the rest of the NFL. Gibbs has been getting a free pass for way to long it's a new era and he left what ever he had with his first retirement.

a win. nothing more nothing less...

[kdogg3270]

my beef with rogers stems from his tendency to give up that big completion on seemingly every third down..not just yesterdays performance.....this is an excellent topic/post though....

[Riggo44]

I'm looking forwad too the Redskins making a run to the playoffs. Where still 2&1 and will be 3&1 after we play the Lions.

While on the bye, maybe yall should look into picking up Mark Rypien and have him call some plays Like Jason Garret. lol
