Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs.Cowboys)

I really hope people don't start blaming Suisham for this loss. Suisham isn't the reason we lost today. When you have to pin all of your hopes on the kicker, there are some serious underlying problems.

We are att he bottom of the div, why not go for the endzone with 15 sec left? Zorn is coaching scared and we lost from a result....that and missing 2 fg's and dropping a int. I was disguisted after the game, i had to put my newborn son down and go outside to do a couple of walks around the house. hats off to the defense and the offense did ok considering the injuries, but we have to pull that one out.

I didn't have a problem with the call at the end of the half. We're on or around the 20 yard line. What are the chances of us scoring a TD? Very very slim to none. My problem was the 3rd and 2 give up draw play.

I agree, i told my wife when dallas got the ball that the skins would lose 7-6. she laughed and said there was still time. I told her she was not familiar with how we do things here lately.

Yep, the three guys I was watching the game with all agreed -- we would lose 7-6. Damn if it didn't happen.

I agree. TD's win football games, not FG's. But the 39 yarder was terrible. Gotta make that.

during the referee boondoggle, All i was thinking is, come on Zorn draw up the perfect play.

Actually I was thinking that Marko at the back of the endzone would be an excellent site...

That's exactly what I said to my fiancee. Throw a fade to one of our big WRs. If it doesn't work, then attempt the FG on 4th down.

I wonder if it was Sherm Lewis or Zorn making that call.

Zorn said in his presser that he didn't want to risk a sack or catching it in bounds so he made the call to kick it. First the pass should only go in the endzone or through the endzone. it was an over cautious call by Zorn in a situation that called for "managed" risk.

Newsflash: Zorn is incompetent!

Not Suisham's fault. Danny Smith shouldn't have kept Suisham on the field for 10-15 minutes while the refs conferred. He should have called Suisham to the sidelines to kick a few into the net to stay loose.

I just don't understand it? They had time to take a shot and kick the FG?Yeah, I was trying to explain why they would want to try to kick the FG on 3-and-1 with 15 seconds left to my sister, and mid-way through my attempt I just said "Actually, you're right. This makes NO sense."
