Too often, he does really, really stupid things. I don't think Greg Blache is a stupid man, he seems like a very clever, well-spoken man. I think he just has motives that aren't necessarily "winning games for the Washington Redskins." Or at least, that's my best guess. So I see him make a call, and I say "wow, that's a really stupid call," but my perspective is trying to have the defense succeed, maybe Blache wants to take pressure off of the defensive lineman, make their jobs easier. In which case, it's a pretty good call.

Except the end result is a 40 yard pass for Eli Manning or maybe Joe Flacco. But at least the DL didn't screw up.

Well, One only has 10 fingers. He spends all game shoring up the holes in the line with the stregnth of his defense (secondary). Opposing teams have plays expecting these senerios, I.e. ravens or cowpokes controlling clock late, or pittsburg trying to get the offense some momentum going. Either way you are correct, the ravens n pokes exposed the o-lines weakness to stop any sort of push and rammed it down our throughts, the steelers hadn't established much running or passing game against us in the first half of the monday night game untill they figured out that we were cheeting up our secondary to shore up our senior citizens on our d-line. They caught us with a big play or 2 and then just went back to their game plan.
