[quote=skinsguy;941426]Going from a zone and giving up a huge cushion for the Wes Welker clone and not switching up and playing more man and bumping the guy at the line. They let him go and he burnt the defense. Regardless of the refs and the bonehead move of Josh Morgan, ultimately, the defense has to keep the other team off the scoreboard. That's what lost the game of us.[/quote]

yup - the announcers, and all of us and the whole world were thinking that. Finally in the second half we saw some man but the damage was done. - just horrible mind numbing game plan and lack of adjustments by Haslett - is he just too stubborn to have done something sooner - ?

Actually when we switched to man we still got toasted.

The problem was up front.

Re: Kudos to Jim Haslett and Raheem Morris
 

The coverage was soft. The ice cream was soft. The coaches are soft therefore, the team is soft.

Yeah well Orakpo was out of the game too than - but the rams damn line was brimming with confidence at that point. That switch needed to be made after Amendolas 37th catch which if I remember correctly was made at approximately 2 minutes and 37 seconds into the first quarter. I may be off by a couple of seconds.

They did slow down Amendola...lol That's about all they did. However, they still had zero pressure up front and you can't expect man coverage to hold but so long.

Lol at the fans wanting Morris to be the DC. Haslett may suck, but Morris was the coach and DC of the worst defense in football. He has made an average defensive backfield into a cesspool of suckage. Oh well, RGIII and the O are running the Shanny system like vintage Elway. Just keep him in one piece, Mike.

I love this crap from "die-hard fans" who think anyone who paid attention to anything other than who the 7th member of the Skins practice squad was is somehow "not a real fan." The NFL is a big deal, Bro. People watch other games, and people watch other teams. I have been telling my idiot homer friends that the Morris hiring was stupid. So was bringing in his best buddy Tanard Jackson to "light up" the secondary. Just because I don't spend my time polishing the poms-poms when the team hasn't been a serious title since the Clinton administration doesn't mean I'm less of a fan.

You should lay off the crank.

The defense in general sounds like a disaster at this point. Haslett wasn't just outcoached (by Gruden) on the 1st play, but really the whole game. And then you add comments/concerns from Mike, about Champ Bailey, about creating pressure, and it sounds a little bit like the players (defense) are pretty frustrated with the coaching and the coaches are putting it back on the players.

I think we lack leadership from the coaching staff. In fact I think it's obvious.

[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;941330]My concern is that if Danny Amendola can light us up, what are we going to do against a GOOD WR? That was the softest zone I've ever seen. I'm not jumping off a bridge today like after most Skins losses considering RGIII played like a beast again, but damn if another player on the other team set a "personal best".[/quote]

I think we just found this out with AJ Green. Now, Vincent Jackson, COME ON DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!

If we make vincent jackson look like vincent jackson were in trouble anyway.

If Haslett keeps this job up the rest of the year, does he play out his new contract?

If Shanahn is here then I say yes,he has the utmost confidence in him and Danny Smith or he wouldnt have reuped their contract

Shanny hasnt been a fan of his since he spouted off in the offseason about the Skins plans to go after RG3 hard.

Also by this logic, McNabb is still our QB. Danny doesnt mind throwing money around and 1 season extensions are nothing about liking the person who got the contract, but about having options.
