We are att he bottom of the div, why not go for the endzone with 15 sec left? Zorn is coaching scared and we lost from a result....that and missing 2 fg's and dropping a int. I was disguisted after the game, i had to put my newborn son down and go outside to do a couple of walks around the house. hats off to the defense and the offense did ok considering the injuries, but we have to pull that one out.

I didn't have a problem with the call at the end of the half. We're on or around the 20 yard line. What are the chances of us scoring a TD? Very very slim to none. My problem was the 3rd and 2 give up draw play.

I agree, i told my wife when dallas got the ball that the skins would lose 7-6. she laughed and said there was still time. I told her she was not familiar with how we do things here lately.

Yep, the three guys I was watching the game with all agreed -- we would lose 7-6. Damn if it didn't happen.

during the referee boondoggle, All i was thinking is, come on Zorn draw up the perfect play.

Actually I was thinking that Marko at the back of the endzone would be an excellent site...

That's exactly what I said to my fiancee. Throw a fade to one of our big WRs. If it doesn't work, then attempt the FG on 4th down.

I wonder if it was Sherm Lewis or Zorn making that call.

I was thinking the same thing. It seems like the coaching staff would think of that once in awhile. What was the point of doing it in preseason?

I really hope people don't start blaming Suisham for this loss. Suisham isn't the reason we lost today. When you have to pin all of your hopes on the kicker, there are some serious underlying problems.

I agree. TD's win football games, not FG's. But the 39 yarder was terrible. Gotta make that.

Not Suisham's fault. Danny Smith shouldn't have kept Suisham on the field for 10-15 minutes while the refs conferred. He should have called Suisham to the sidelines to kick a few into the net to stay loose.

Zorn said in his presser that he didn't want to risk a sack or catching it in bounds so he made the call to kick it. First the pass should only go in the endzone or through the endzone. it was an over cautious call by Zorn in a situation that called for "managed" risk.

Newsflash: Zorn is incompetent!

Yeah field goal with 15 sec. was kinda upsetting. However, P.Manning would have been able to get 4 downs out of it.

Torn between wishing for a win or a loss. Dallas week gotta root for the win.

I'm absolutly not a fan of Rock but good job. Filled in admirably. Good job Swish, you've hit everyone until today and a 50 yrder is hard. Good job Fletcher, and the defense as a whole.

9-7 is the best we can do right now. Could we get to the play offs at 9-7? Yes. Will we? No. We would have to win out. What's the saying "6 in a row or we won't go?" LOL. So if we can agree we are not making it can we start all the young guys to give them experience? maybe bring up the 3rd string QB and bench Collins. Give the young guy 1 quarter just to see if he's worth keeping. bring up the 4th string WR. Play all the young CB's we'll need for them to step up next yr.

I think we could use Thomas as KR from now on since he did well. I guess everyone forgot about Ganther. I suppose he will have to step up. We'll finally get to see what we have in E.Williams unless there was an injury to him that I was unaware of?

and I guess there will be some new additions this week, most likely a RB, and OL.
