Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

[Lotus]

Positive: Haslett's adjustments at half time

Negative: Haslett's foolish original game plan that required half time adjustments

on another note:
In preseason, I saw many players psyched to ball out and play hard. I don't see that any more. You're doing something wrong if you are not psyched to play the defending champs but we weren't psyched.

The only team that would overpay Orakpo is the Skins.

Giving away draft packs like Xmas presents isnt the way to build a winner and the Skins are a prime example of that.

Other than the RG3 trade, when was the last time we gave up picks? I'm all for criticism, but you seem to have pull that out of the Vinny Cerrato criticism bag.

Hate to bring up the past but I will anyway. That trade is just killing this team right now.

I hear you and agree.

On the other hand. The Skins need a QB. There was nothing else out there to get. PM didn't want to come to us, Luck went first overall, and our crystal ball was broken (drafting Wilson). Who else since that draft has there been available that is great QB or the potential to be one?


Honestly to bad the Cutler trade never went through.

Those are the picks that should be at the peak of their careers now.

[JoeRedskin]

Safeties and Linemen.

Oh, and Linebackers and TE's.

Depth at CB (I do like Breeland & Amerson - next year's version).

Maybe a new QB.


Other than that we are set!

Im loving the fact Breeland and Amerson are getting good experience playing together. I like the size and how physical they are.

Brandon Merriwether needs to go. Porter needs to go (he never came).

I think Riley is replacable and Robinson just need more playing time. Did anybody see K Robinson make big errors in coverage? Twice I saw him double someone in short routes and let a guy (he's responsibilty) run free uncovered. Needs to clean that up.

Watching Perry Riley spy on Wilson was an epic failure. Merriweather missed open tackles on Wilson twice.

Only the Redskins could ruin the sure fire thing.

Fawking Griffin. Thanks for nothing.

How did they ruin a sure thing? He got hurt twice. That's not the Redskins fault.

I know; just frustrated.

Even outside of the injuries he is not progressing.

It sucks he cost us a boat load of picks and set us pack at QB for another 5 years.

If we dont get plan B together this offseason, it will be the Redskins fault. RG3 proven he cannot stay healthy, unfortunately we need to come up with a viable back up plan. Continue to develop Cousins? I dont see him as the long term solution in a Gruden offense.

Truthfully Cousins with a first or second round non-bust right tackle probably succeeds. I think we move away from the Shanahan zone and get heavy up front.

Lotus I agree about Haslett, in game he gets better but coming into the game his defense just is never prepared. That was behind my impetuous fire Haslett comment in the game thread after the first Seahawks score.

Yeah, I think its going to take more than a RT for Cousins to be successful. I think if Cousins is on the Seahawks last night against us, Seahawks lose. The difference in the game (yes Special teams is always the answer but) was the mobility of Wilson. Big plays time and time again

You can say the same thing about the offense. I think the only time we had a successful first drive was against the Eagles and Jaguars. Other than that, the offense seems to always come unprepared.
