[SUNRA]

No one is above criticism. While the referees did a dishonorable job at best, it was the coaching staff that lost this game. The offense was one dimensional in that Portis was the focus of our running game. Gibbs did not even play Betts at runningback. He also never called one screen pass in the first half of the game. When he did call them he was successful at moving ball. When I defense did their job in the first half of the game, we came up short because of dropped balls and poor play calling. Cooley, Rasby, Morton and Betts should have been used on every other play because Portis was not successful at breaking the tackles. Settling for a field goal instead of a TD was embarrassing. Anyone could see Dallas was biting on the Portis run so why didn't Gibbs call the bootleg? The timeout at the goal was uneccessary and it cost us a TD. Lastly, we do not need an ex-referee to advise this team because he must hate the Redskins with the track record he has.
Overall, the team finished better than it started. I see the offense winning the next couple of games soley on its ability to control the ball. We lead Dallas on almost every stat accept the score.
