Samuels is good but not good enough to stop Ware the whole game without help. Not his fault, just reality. Of four bombs to TO, three involved mental errors and one was caused by a missed tackle. The secondary played a bad game-- worse than expected, even without Taylor. The pass interference play was also a brain-dead play and the 50 yard FG attempt on fourth and one was just as stupid, as was the FG after second failing to go for seven on fourth and one. It was also a mistake not to pass on third and three, which set up the bad decision to go for a field goal.
Conclusions:
We lost this one between the ears, the place where we have lost most of our games this year and made others close that should have been easy wins.
Even with Taylor, our defense needs help. We need a proven CB of quality and two defensive linemen, including a DE.
Gibbs and Co. should totally forget about Redskin Football and play Campbell Football. If Campbell had played more last year and Gibbs had turned him loose at the start of this one, we'd now be at least 8-2.
Drafting a WR is not a top priority. Using the ones we have is.
