Our defense is not nearly as good and disciplined in its play as it was last years.
The reality is DC Gregg Williams should have been named our head coach and Zorn our OC. But Snyder choose Cerratto over Williams, because Williams wanted Ceratto out as part of his deal of taking over for Gibbs. Plain and simple. So Snyder choose Cerrato over Williams.
IMO we lost in that exchange.
I still do not get the love Snyder has for Cerrato? What is it based on?
We give up on a coach (Williams) that year after year proven his worth on the field as a Redskins coach, for a guy (Ceratto) that has not PROVEN HIS WORTH as a Redskins talent evaluator.
Just my overall opinion of the state of the Redskins.
I hope I am wrong.

What has Williams proven as a head coach that Cerrato hasn't as a front office executive?

It's one game but I could have honestly done a better job. Portis, Cooley, Portis, Cooley, Portis, Portis, Portis, Moss! TD!

Key point, we have 3 extra days to prep for the next game.

I do apologize for giving up on the season after week 1. Thing that really bothered me that every weakness CB, DL, OL weren't really addressed were actually still REAL weaknesses. Also the 4th quarter play calling and situational game plan (ie 5 mins 2 scores). JC locking in on a WR, telegraphing in his 4th year now. The time is now or never. I hope we play better in our home opener. Brees is a smart guy and Brunell is there to tell the Saints every thing he knows. If Springs plays and Rogers, Smoot play better we have a shot, but Saints will be another tough test. I'm disappointed in apparent weaknesses still being apparent weaknesses.

I think we saw the o line is over the hill and not in a good way. They got push around by the Giants. Also we saw that JC isn't and may never be a very good QB. He lost on the field. If the a player isn't wide open he stops like a deer caught in head light! If these two things are going on I don't care who is calling the plays it not going to work! It's funny when most around football thought we will finish last in our divison and our QB rated c or less we say they don't know what they are talking about. We are going to see everyone we play come at us hard with pressure untill JC or who ever can make them pay big gainers with the short pass!

After Watching the game this weekend I had two thoughts

1. The NFC Beast is very good

2. If the worst we play was thursday night then we will be fine.

excellent point....williams tanked as a head coach and nobody jumped on him this offseason. Cerrato has done a decent job, and i think it is a step in the right direction having a GM

[That Guy]

i just watched indy lose... what a horrible team... that peyton guy can't play. i hope they cut him and fire the coach.

seriously, i waited 4 months for this?
