Redskins vs. Patriots game thread

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

So, I realize this is the Patriots, but 24 points in the first half? They're on pace to put 520 yards and 48 points on us and we're on pace to put up 180 yards and 0 points. 3.1 yards per pass attempt to go with 3 turnovers?

I thought I would be able to deal with this loss, but I also thought that we would be competitive. This is simply ridiculous and I think I am going to be sick.

Hey Sheriff what did you expect? The past couple games we were not exactly great, especially at home against the Cards. I think all of the Warpath nation is getting ready to hurl, and with good reason. If we don't rebound next weekend vs the Jets and lose that one, might as well flush another season down the tubes. To be honest I am losing faith fast in Gibbs and his ability to lead a team. If we do falter this season the rest of the way, I hope he steps down so we might be able to ink Marty if he is available. I don't want Gibbs to coach next season just to hand the HC job off to Williams who isn't HC material.

The sky is falling? Not from where I'm sitting. Honestly I've seen us give these guys a bunch of big plays on nothing more than poor execution on our part.

The Vrabel and Moss TD's should have been FG's. Ggrilliamssss has to take the blame on the Vrabel score, though.

If we lose to the Jets the sky is going to come down to earth pretty quick. I would like for Gibbs to stay indefinitely, but since he is slated to go after '08 and give the HC job to Williams, I rather him take off early so maybe Snyder gets a coach that is truly hungry. Saunders is just here for a big payday, Williams is a great D coordinator, but his stint with Buffalo as HC has to make you wonder. Execution is the big reason we have been stinking it up the past 8+ quarters of game time, but unimaginative coaching also has played a role also.

We need to give Betts a chance to play. That way we'll find out if we have a running game to face the Jets next week >

I wonder how different things would be if our offensive line was healthy and playing well?

I don't think it would make much of a difference. Both fumbles from Campbell came off of poor blocking on the RB's in the game.

Could be 17-7 if we could hang on to the ball.

I don't think it would make much difference at all....these 2 teams are worlds apart!!! We look weak

[jbcjr14]

This is the worst 1/2 of football we have seen so far this year. The offense is just flat, the defense didn't change a damn thing and Belichik's staff prepped for it and are just killing us with the short dink and dunk because we are 30 yards off the ball and not jamming their receivers. Has anyone seen anybody bump Welker at the line???

The Winless Dolphins put up more of a fight then the deadskins are.
