Skins feeling the pressure

another response from Cooley:

One of the players on the team that isn’t the problem came out in defense of the organization on Wednesday. Chris Cooley posted this on the his blog:

Alright, I’ve spent the last two days listening to never ending gripe about how terrible the Washington Redskins are. Our coaching is dreadful. Zorn is on the hot seat. Our play calling is outright awful. Anyone can call better red zone plays. Our team is a bunch of overpaid bums. Getting booed by a bunch of “dim-wits.” And I don’t even need to mention the way fans despise our ownership. IT’S ALL BULLS***.

First of all we lost to an outstanding Giants team in New York. Bummer, yes, but not the end of the world. Secondly, we actually won the Rams game. A win for us is like a Van Gogh, it doesn’t matter if it’s pretty, it’s having it. Now, of course it’s obvious that we didn’t score tons of points, but by no means were we terrible. We put together five different drives of over 10 plays. It doesn’t matter who your playing, that’s hard as hell to do in the NFL. We work our asses off and we can play!

I agree. It's week 3 and we are 1 and 1. A nice win and we'll be a good team. The media and some fans are doing more harm than good.

The Redskins have already proven they can move the ball up and down the field. Sustaining drives don't seem to be a problem. The problem is, the offense seems to freeze inside the 20. Zorn needs to think about what could work, compared to what has been done. IMO, and my opinion only, that means Chris Cooley, Malcolm Kelly, and Marko Mitchell in and on the field inside the ten yard line. Kelly and Mitchell are both 6'4" which means one, if not both, will be mismatched.

Man, if I were a player I wouldn't talk to the media, I wouldn't read what fans are posting online, and I wouldn't listen to sports talk radio. I can only imagine how this crap can drive you crazy.
