Re: What's your defnition of 'conservative playcalling'?

The coaches called deep bombs in the second halves of the Philly, NYG, and GB games that didn't connect. Had JC connected with Moss on those deep-plays, I doubt people would be saying how conservative our coaches get when playing with a lead.
Again, it's not just about the bombs.. It's about the mid range passing game moreso than bombs.. It's about not being predictable all the time.. It's about a mentality of attacking rather than just trying to bleed the clock when the defense knows exactly what's coming..

BTW, it's not just some of us 'clueless, just plain stupid' fans who see the questionable play calling pattern.. Redskins Insider
