Well it cant get any worse. He was really off Monday

I'm not worried about Alex. He has a history of regular season success.

That being said, run the ball 20+ times every game, I don't care of we're only averaging 1 yard a carry. Run the fucking ball Gruden. That's how you set up an identity. Alex and this offense plays best when balanced. We're not the Saints, don't call the game like we are.

This team constantly does the same 2 things under Gruden:

On offense, abandoning the run like a sinking ship for no reason and on defense, sloppy, undisciplined play, ala Nicholson's personal foul and guys streaking down the field wild open.

Hey, everyone. I'm sorry you lost for several reasons. Wanted you to beat a division rival, and I know the Skins will play extra hard after the loss, but also, I wanted you guys in a good mood so we could enjoy chatting about our game.

I'm not much in to conspiracies, but you were definitely set up to lose Monday. The NFL had a product to sell and that took precedence over everything else Monday.

That really scares me about this week. I think we'll see your best.

What happens when it's 2nd and 11? It's easy to say "run the ball!" We're not the Saints but we're also not the 91 Redskins. We aren't good enough to just show up and run people over. We have to have balance. We have to get the ball to Reed who has been a non factor.

You forgot a few things:

- Never wins more than 9 games in a season.
- Doesn't score any points in the 3rd quarter.
- Goes 9 or 10 quarters in a row without scoring a TD on offense.
- Never seems to win on the national stage.
- Hires top assistants but still can't play pass coverages or pickup DL stunts.
- etc., etc, etc.

Exactly this.

If I recall correctly the Skins had called the most run plays of ANY team in the NFL going into Monday Night..?

I think our biggest problem is that we don't have any WR's that scare anybody. Our entire offense is run out of the backfield/slot with Peterson, Reed, Crowder and Thompson. With 1 or 2 balls going outside to Richardson.

We really need Doctson to impose some sort of threat out wide. Lets hope he can start getting some targets.

Yes I remember that stat. We were 2-1, running the ball produces winning football.

Monday we couldn’t run the ball and Alex pass attempts were the highest of the season. That is losing football.

Not hard folks, not hard at all.

:yeahright:
