Brett would throw three picks and run around to show everyone how much he's enjoying himself.

Uh, barely put a hand on him? Dude, what game were you watching? They were molesting him all day. Jason gets hit within 2.5 seconds of the snap more than any other QB in the league. Or are you just saying that because you'd like to see a 6th round rookie QB start the rest of the way?

No I like to see the best option for us to win. Campbell crumbling isnt just a today thing he does it every week while under pressure. I like Colt and I think highly of him don't know if he's top player material but I see Campbell doing the same things that drove everybody crazy about Brunell and wanting him out. I was never sold on Campbell. He wasn't the reason Auburn did great it was that two headed monster in the back field with Ronnie and Caddy. I know its fan loyalty to stick to your franchise qb but i think its a lil blind love. Can Colt do it? Maybe, maybe not but the more i watch this team I know we'll be 1 and done if we even make It, and Campbell is so overrated.

I agree wholeheartedly. Campbell can't throw the deep ball. Every long ball is thrown underneath. take for example the interception by the Giants. Moss ( I believe he was the intended receiver) has two,mabe three, steps but had to wait for the ball, and it was enough time foe the secondary to ctach up and make the play. Look at the two big receptions by Moss in the first Dallas game. They both should have been touchdowns, but Moss had to slow down. actually stop, to catch the ball. Campbell had three or more passes in the dirt yesteray. He was underthrowing his long passes during warm up before the game.

Re: What's Wrong with the Redskins?

Nobody mentioned that we played some really good teams, and today we played the now 11-1 defending Super Bowl champions who are arguably the best team in football, and certainly the best in the NFC.

Point well taken, BUT losing is one thing. Meltdown is another. TOOOOO many missed opp's. TOOOO many "dealbreakers", self-destruction.
Lack of execution

We've also played some of the worse teams, who we've barely squeaked by with a win, with the exception of a bad team that beat us. (Rams). Elite teams don't almost get beat by bad teams. Hell, average teams don't almost get beat by bad teams.

There's no reason that we struggled against an 0-12 team and lent a win to a 2-9 team. It makes no sense.

The Giants lost to the Browns and squeaked by the Bengals in overtime. Your point is pointless.

The Browns are an ok team. They aren't 0-12.

Comparing the Giants losing to the Browns to us losing to the Rams is pretty laughable. The Giants are proven winners, if they drop a game or two, they're still good.

The problem is the Redskins aren't even though have the potential to be.

You are contradicting yourself. You said good teams don't lose to bad teams. Cleveland is a bad team, no debating that.

Exactly! How big does that loss to the Rams look now? That loss could be the deciding factor on us making (missing) the playoffs. It's real simple, you have to beat the teams that you're supposed to beat.

Thank you! Please stop the madness of woe is us, why can't we always win, wah, wah, wah..

We played the best team in football today, we played the team that all of the 'experts' said was the best team in football 2 weeks ago, we played one of the best teams in the AFC right before that. If we lose next week then we would have lost to 4 of the top 6 teams in the NFL. There's no shame in that!! Of course we would have liked to have won all of those games but just because we didn't doesn't mean we suck and the season is over.

We're still in very good shape to make the playoffs which most people thought unimaginable before the season started.

I feel like I'm in the presser when Jim Mora went ballistic over the playoffs question. Please, please don't talk about the playoffs like they mean something to this offense. Pleeeeeeaaaaaaaaaase. We lost today in the same fashion we've lost playoff games - utterly, totally uninspired offense w/ abysmal execution and wide-outs who look like transfers from NAIA football. The thought of watching this offense play another game like today's i.e. a playoff game makes me want to kick a puppy and start drinking heavy again.

Fair enough we played the best team in football, but we are going to have to step up one day and actually beat these teams if we expect to get anywhere. Even if we do well down the stretch and by some miracle make the playoffs we will still have to face these so called "best teams in football". i am just tired of being let down by this team on a consistent basis. You get way up and hopeful in the beginning of the season and then finish it out like this. It is extremely disappointing
