Hey Ho, Haslett has to go! (or maybe not)

SFREDSKIN · 12-31-2012, 01:00 AM

I'm one the ones that ripped him, I'll give him cautious credit.

FRPLG · 12-31-2012, 01:03 AM

He figured out how to make a decent defense out of spare parts. I can't honestly say I thought he had that in him. To me a good coach takes what he has and builds from that. We did that on both sides if the ball this year. No way we can let Haz go. He's earned the shot to run a defense not depleted.

Give Haslett major major props. Tonight he just got after Romo, pressed the wr's and the db's were looking back for the ball. He gets the game ball along with Morris.

Ruhskins · 12-31-2012, 01:08 AM

I'll be the first one to do a little bit of this tonight...

I just hope we can carry this defense to next week's game.

No doubt.

Amazing job.

Bring this man back!

Yupp. I sure hope we keep him and Kyle.

I agree...Haslet and Kyle showed their strength in the end

REDSKINS4ever · 12-31-2012, 01:55 AM

I believe Jim Haslett is good enough to be a head coach, not just a defensive coordinator. Regardless of where the Redskins rank in total defense after 16 games played, Haslett deserves a ton of credit for overseeing this defensive unit.

CultBrennan59 · 12-31-2012, 02:19 AM

I ask this question now;

The big knock on Haslett was that he couldn't make in game adjustments (Joe Webb last year; Amendola this year). Has he gotten better/started doing that? (I believe yes, but I want to hear your feedback now)

I'd like to be 2nd in line, helluva job during this ride! Nicely played Haslett, nicely played!

While the injury situation has been much overstated (here mostly), Haslett earned another year or two based on the improvement since the bye week.

Honestly, I'm not sure the defense will be that much improved with Carriker and Rak. Carriker is a bit long in the tooth and will likely face a long recovery to his old self, if he gets there at all. Rob Jackson may work in our system better than Rak, which shouldn't surprise. Rak is a hand in the dirt pure rusher, and we might be wise to seek a trade in the off-season. All parties could benefit in a good deal.

Upgraded safeties and especially a monster nose tackle are still the shortest path to an elite defense. It would be fantastic if the NT could be homegrown (Nield or Baker).

The thing with defense is that in today's NFL you dont need a great D to win, you need a decent D combined with a good offense. The biggest difference with the Skins this year is that they can score points. The NFL is an offense first league and now the Skins have an offense that can put up points combined with a D that can get the job done. The Skins will be a dangerous team in the playoffs.

What Im liking about what the Skins do is RUN! The league has become so accustom to playing pass defense that this old school stuff has them back on their heels. Its fun to see most defenses totally confused by our ability to run the ball from both QB and RB with so much misdirection which BTW RG3 really sells better than ant QB i've ever seen. Really opens the door for Morris HTTR!!!

I bet you couldn't be happier about being wrong though!

I'm on board. Bring Haz back.
