[quote=sdskinsfan2001;1157919]I think we're definitely better than the next 3 teams we play and on par with the Giants. We can go 4-0.

That being said, we can't guarantee wins over anyone with our defense and red zone play calling.[/quote]

That is why I am pessimistic about our chances now. Our D is the big albatross holding us back. We should bitch slap Philly, but will we? Arizona should have been a
W for us, but we blew it. No game is easy for us, even teams that are tanking.

It was not his best game. But it was not a bad one. He was under tremendous pressure all night. He was on the road and it was loud.
I thought he certainly played well enough to win.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

[quote=punch it in;1157922]KC was under tremendous pressure and TW certainly helps there. Not that Ty played poor and maybe we still lose. But don't underestimate not having the best LT in football on the field.[/quote]

The pressure was horrid, but all out blitzes doesn't focus on one man. Our line overall is solid but they can't hold a candle to the Hogs or the o line Norv had. A shooting match was to be avoided with this team as they have the better defense.

Loss isn't on Kirk. Our defense doesn't create turnovers.

Trent is the best LT in football. He protects KC's blind side. He would have played and dominated with the Hogs, norvs line, or any other line in Redskins history. He makes a huge difference. Whatever though. He will be back next week and so will a W.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

My official hope of still possibly winning the super bowl was killed today. We couldn't force any turnovers against a QB famous for them or get off the field.

If you include the penalty on Norman, they converted 12-18 3rd/4th downs. Combine that with zero turnovers and you aren't beating anyone. I can't even blame Barry, his dogs just don't hunt. He needs more players on his side, and for Pete's sake, some speed.

Yup. I still think we will get in. I would love to than win a game. A halfway decent offense will own us every time though. Especially when it matters most. Our linebackers are sooooo meh. Inside and out.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

Same story, different week.......

we can't score in the Red Zone & we can't get the other Offense off the field.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

Our corners outside of Norman have zero ball skills. A lot of times they're in position to make a play and can't or don't. Our ILB's are slow and also can't make any plays. Our OLB's can not rush the passer and are also slow. Our safeties also can't make any plays and can't really cover. Our DL can't push in the pocket and get can't get off blocks. Other then that we're on our way...

More than half our defensive players are meh or yuck. I'm assuming this off season and draft, 90% of the focus will be on defense. I think we'll be a lot more stout next year. We better be.

We're a good offense, not great. Great teams score red zone touchdowns on a regular basis.

Yeah the safeties are not even worth mentioning. I would not mind having Breeland on the team but not as a starter. Kerrigan is good for one sack and a whole lot of disappearing. We really have very little speed.
Our first pick has to be the best DT / Linebacker / or safety available. I do not care how good the tight end or wr or center is on the board at that point. I really do not. Lol. I forget who said it about getting someone in free agency that turns out to be like a Vernon Davis has been for our offense, but we need to steal one in free agency plus draft at least 2 immediate contributors.

Honestly we won't win a playoff game. I'd like to get in but our def is too bad to win. Maybe Detroit but don't think it'll happen

We'll have a new NT, at least 1 new ILB and at least 1 new safety. And Cravens will play a whole lot more next year. That would be the absolute minimum. And we need a speed rusher bad. There is no position on defense where a pick or signing couldn't be used. It's wide open for SM.

I think we can certainly win a playoff game. I think we could also beat Dallas. We need to get in and take care of the rest then. We lose next week it is all but over.

Oh I don't trust the D at all. Lol. Smith sucks. Most of them would certainly not be starters elsewhere. However with our offense we are capable of winning any game. Look outside of Pittsburgh we could have easily won every other game.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

I also thought KC was off yesterday. He had happy feet and piss poor mechanics.

From what the coaches have sort of said his motor isn't there. Or his intensity.

[QUOTE=skinsfan69;1158008]I also thought KC was off yesterday. He had happy feet and piss poor mechanics.[/QUOTE]



He was throwing off his back foot a lot because there were 4 cardinals bearing down on him constantly.
Yesterday was an indictment on our pass rush. Cousins has been hot. Palmer needs to retire. He is a statue. Should be easy to get to. Yet he somehow had time and KC didn't.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

[quote=skinsfan69;1158008]I also thought KC was off yesterday. He had happy feet and piss poor mechanics.[/quote]

The left side of the line was collapsing...Nsekhe and Luavao had major issues.

The second half he was throwing off his back foot a lot. So if your an O-coordinator you make adjustment in protection schemes and shortern pass routes. Not us.

I thought the biggest play of the game was the 3rd down play with 6:30 left in the game. Cousins was waiting on something, back peddling and threw it away. Couldn't convert and settled for the fieldgoal.

Re: Skins Vs Card Game Day Thread
 

Hopkins was hitting from everywhere in the loss. Lol. We needed those against Dallas and Cincy!
