Well when people that can't swim get tossed into a pool and start drowning, they go into freakout mode.

Redskins seem to be an organization that can't get their shit together, tossed into a schedule where they seemingly can barely get wins...

Let freakout mode commence.

Could be worse, we could be the Titans or Cowboys.

...or the Raiders, or the Browns, or the Bills, or the Chiefs.. As bad as we feel we have it, others are worse off.

Probably a move Blache welcomes if not suggested. There may be no need to read a great deal into it. Small changes taking place, can a bigger one be far away?

Maybe Blache is just tired. He's got a pretty intense workload outside of just coaching with all these media requirements.

By the way, Smoot has stopped talking to the media as well

I know you get tired of the media Smoot. It's hard being you.

But seriously, what's the real Smoot have to say to the media anyway? He got bumped out of the depth chart last week by Tryon ffs. If you're getting bumped out by a player with 1 year of experience and almost zero playing time, you need to be worrying more about your job security and less about the media.

yeah but Smoot has always talked...hence SmootSmack

Plus with him getting less playing time (and probably realizing it's his last season with the team) why not just talk away?

And what do you mean "the real Smoot" you calling me fake?

I think judging by how he's handled most of his press conferences recently that this is the most likely scenario. You could tell it was a chore for him.

Zorn said: "Blache really needed a break".

Then why the hell doesn't he retire?

I liked hearing Blache's comments.

DCtoAZ · 10-09-2009, 12:04 AM

aren't we 2-2 .. what if we win this weekend and are 3-2 with the Chiefs coming up ?? Is the sky really falling ?? I say relax, there is WAY to much guessing going on around these parts .. breath in breath out .. 2-2 .... 2-2 .... 2-2

I thought Doc Walker's explanation fit best -- when Blache said earlier in the week "throw me under the bus", Zorn may have come to him and said, 'don't do that, I'm the coach, I take the blame here, not you' -- Blache may have agreed, and then said 'I'm not speaking to the media, period.'

Yeah I can buy that.

Or maybe the pieces are being put in place just in case Zorn gets the boot at the bye. Who the F knows anymore.

Exactly. Such a simple sentence, yet so true in so many aspects with this team right now.

If it was Blache and Zorn said that to me, I would have been really tempted to say "Well, you haven't taken the blame here so somebody on this staff had to man up and do it"
