you mean our coaching staff was not trying to win? honestly, does anyone really care if the redskins win another preseason game ever?

Very good analysis from this Bob guy.

RobH4413 · 08-27-2006, 10:55 PM

Great analasys, I'd read this guy over Wilbon any day.

htownskinfan · 08-27-2006, 11:03 PM

he made some good points,he actually made me feel better about the loss

SKINSnCANES · 08-27-2006, 11:22 PM

Good article.

Everyone thats flipping out needs to relax ans wait until week one...I think since Portis got injured everyone is running at half speed during preseason...They will give 110% starting week 1

well done, very well done. Impressive too...the more I think about it, the more it seems correct that they were calling plays on defense that called on the weakness of each player, also on offense the brunell part made sense about quick passes with no time.

I give him an A+. I knew it wasn't a big deal that they lost, but I didn't realize they were working on things that well in the process.

hooskins · 08-28-2006, 12:09 AM

He makes some good points, but I mean he still sugarcoats the Defense alot more. Also he is almost suggesting Gibbs and the coaches wanted their players to lose, which I highly doubt.

FRPLG · 08-28-2006, 12:10 AM

He makes good points. Also of note is the fact that Gibbs, Williams, and Saunders have all made statements about putting guys in certain positions to see what they do. I am hoping last night was that case. I just can't believe our line got pushed around that bad.

steveo395 · 08-28-2006, 01:02 AM

if any of you saw the gibbs press conference today on redskins.com, he says that he thought Brunell did pretty well, even though he really didnt do anything...so he must know something that we dont

JWsleep · 08-28-2006, 01:21 AM

I liked the piece--though it doesn't excuse the total lack of fire by players out there. Still, I'm happy to believe his analysis for now. We'll know on the 11th.

i agree, great post by this guy. but i also agree he sugar coats the defense. but overall the post makes a ton of sense, A+

anyone here watch that close and confirm his play selection observations? it'd be great if it were all true.

Not positive. But I do know that after the game yesterday, Brunell said there were several plays they wanted to practice and execute properly and they felt they got those plays down. As if to say, they weren't thinking of the scoreboard or the game situation necessarily they were just intent on executing certain plays repeatedly until they got them down.

There are concerns coming out of this game, and the biggest IMO is our kicking game, why they continue to stick with Frost is beyond me, and I would have cut bait with Hall as well, no sense in keeping an average field goal kicker who can't kick off nor stay healthy, we are just asking for problems with this guy.

Jansen was beat to the outside a couple of times I know that wasen't by design.

Until we line up our starters and throw the kitchen sink at a team we are not going to know for sure what they can do, but if anyone thinks the Pats are going to put up 41 points on a G.Williams defense in the regular season when healthy thier crazy, I do hope Rocky is a quick learner because he is far and away better than Holdman.

I do believe the most mysterious question mark we have is the O-line? Are they overated? Have our offensive woes been because of a very weak and highly overated O-line, or an inferior game plan, that question will finally be answered in week 1.
