Re: Panic button poll
I think that it was a good loss, hopefully it deflated our heads alittle bit. I will accept a 41-0 beating during preseason, it is during the season when you loose 41-0 you beat the hell out of the panic button...
I think that our coaching staff wanted to humble our players and let see that they are not as invincible as they think they are...

Re: Panic button poll
Listen i know its preseason but i think there is alot of reasons to panic. Our QB situation is horrible Brunell gone back to his 2004 and late last season forum. Campbell been nothing i would be to excited about one score in three games. Lets not even tall about Tom Collins. I know its Todd but he plays like Tom. I especially was impressed but Brunells almost suffle past to the patriots for a Td. Even his completions the wr are streching to catch everyone of his passes never hitting them in stride. Don't give me this stuff about 2 percent of the o-fense, are you telling me that every team in the NFL shows their O-fense in preseason but the skins please. I think Coach Joe made a hugh mistake with this candy ass traing camp, only 3 two a days. These guys have practice soft and our playing soft. I know its preseason but come on can they at least look like they care or play like professionals. I done care if they win in preseason, but at least they should look like they have a clue. Every team in preseason seems to be able to move the ball on O-fense, I guess that because their showing thier whole playbook. But that defense wow that Andre Carter what a find all this presure and sack in these 3 games and acurletta he really good in coverage wow. Who didn't see that coming, i did i watch the him get burn with the rams in coverage for 3 years now. I know its preseason we all got burn by spurier,but we should look alot better than we do now. We haven't improved from the bengals game to this one. Hail to the skins and god help us if this is our future this year. Also glad to see the skins trade away another draft pick next year. That why we have no depth because we dont respect our draft.

Re: Panic button poll
Well we will see what happen starting 9/11 i hope i'm wrong. Eagle are better this year so are the giants. Maybe Dallas. We have the third worst starting QB in the divinsion not the conference.

Re: Panic button poll
The Patriots romped to a 41-0 shutout win over the Redskins at Foxborough in what was the largest preseason margin of victory by any NFL team since the Seahawks blasted the Colts, 45-3, on Aug. 16, 1997 -- the year before Peyton Manning arrived in Indianapolis

We went seven and a half qtrs. into the regular season last year without scoring a touchdown also, so maybe this is a trend we're setting. |

Re: Panic button poll
I'm not concerned on the whole.. I don't put much stock into preseason games, good or bad so who cares about the result. I don't like to see my team thrashed regardless of circumstance but I don't see the reasons for all of the panic. Truly the season starts about week 6 or 7. Going 3-3 (although I expect better) isn't a death knell for the team. I'd rather the team go into the season fresh and healthy than to have looked great in August.
As for the QB comments after last year I'll give Brunell the benefit of the doubt until we lose a couple of games at his hands. Gibbs has 3 more Super Bowl rings than I do and to him I defer.

Re: Panic button poll
I'd rather lose them all (preseason) than win them all. We will turn the corner thursday against BAL. Does that mean we'll will? No but, the offense will be sharper and the defense will do thier thing.

Re: Panic button poll
Wait, is it still August? Still? Who has a calender?
I was looking for the button when Portis and Springs went down. But then I read a few reports, realized they aren't going to miss serious time, sat down in my chair, and fell asleep. Wake me when September [Comes]. I hate Green Day. |

Re: Panic button poll
I'm not worried, but last nights game has dampened my enthusiasm a bit. I firmly believe preseason is complete crap and no indicator of anything in the regular season.
BUT, a 41-0 pounding just doesn't sit well. I know the gameplan is limited, the playbook is limited, all that stuff. But we just looked BAD last night. No heart, no drive, no enthusiasm - the entire team was outplayed. Outplayed as a team, outplayed man to man. Does that mean the sky is falling and we're doomed to be the bottom-feeders of the NFC East? Of course not. Other teams I've watched in the preseason have looked good (Giants, Cowboys, Eagles, Indianapolis, etc.) I'm not talking their win-loss record, I'm talking the play of the starters. They look quick, sharp, efficient and in control. Frankly the 'Skins last night look completely befuddled - like no one knew what was going on, and on every side of the ball. I'm not crying myself to sleep or worrying myself sick, but it does make you wonder how a team with as much player and coach talent as we have end up getting humiliated 41-0, even if it was a meaningless game.
