Swearinger is right and this has been an observation by many...Gruden practice and camp is too loose.
Fully agree. Gruden is too comfortable and he's making things too comfortable for the players. There needs to be some serious heat coming down from the owner on both Allen and Gruden.
I think we've seen enough of Gruden by now to know what he is. He's a mediocre HC. If you're looking for 7-9 wins he can get you there. He can generally scheme up a pretty good offense, he won't have a problem getting another job as a OC/QB coach.
Barring a major reversal of what his past history says he is, it's time to go HC shopping again this offseason.

Jonathan Allen should be made team captain ASAP.
A quick side note, not that this would have mattered but the refs missed a ton of calls in the first half including: M. Thomas grabbing Dunbar's facemask, a false start by A. Kamara, and several holds on Kerrigan. It was like they wanted to make sure Brees got the record in the first half.
They didn't miss any holds on Kerrigan. Its part of the NFL rulebook that holding Redskins passrushers is allowed, especially if its a chokehold. Was the same with Orakpo and got passed down to Kerrigan.

I should just never get excited about anything with this team. Tired of playing the fool. Like why would I think anything else but embarrassing ourselves was a possibility last night? It happens every time, but I trick myself into saying we can win. Gruden cannot handle the bright lights and get players to play disciplined/tough football. He's a Sunday at 10:00 a.m. (PCT) kind of guy.

Last night was the 100% Final nail for me man, I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt last yr with the QB mess but this is just who he is

I really hope our next HC is a tough as nails defensive guy that won't take shit like last night. We can then hire a good OC. At this point tho, schemes on offense or defense are secondary in need compared to rebranding the entire team philosophy and attitude. The pathetic display put on last night is all good common and isn't getting fixed. Its all empty words with this team.

The only way this team get to a high caliber is fire Bruce and bring in a real GM and let him do the rest as in fire all the coaches and tell Danny boy I’m running the show ... but I don’t think it will happen .. the redskins and cowboys are pretty much in the same place ..owners with huge egos and bad coaching ... neither team is likely playoff bound. Bad part is we got to watch this crap for rest of year. But I guess the only bright spot is 8-8 might win the division so it ain’t over..

Positive from last nights game: All my expectations for the season have been shattered and I will no longer stress the outcome of games this season.
I feel some changes a'comin.

So you don't think this is a hold?

Was the same with Orakpo and got passed down to Kerrigan.Apparently there is a rule that "allows" for holding when the defender uses a rip move and gets under the linemans block, and that's why you see Kerrigan with one arm free being held a lot, but I don't know where to find it.
