We basically got Stanford'd

Stanford'd - To have be have a strong statistical game on offense while scoring no more than 10 points.

If (when) we have a top 5 pick next year, what position we drafting? When a Redskins fan it's never too early to look towards next year.

If Polumbus is our starting right tackle NEXT season I literally won't watch their games.

Bring on the Jags, they looked good, then the 2nd half started. I like our chances to get to 1-1.

LOL, we have many more losses to get through first before we get to there. I like your thinking though.

RG -3 misses too many wide open wr's for me to blame it all on our right side.

A lot of the same maddening mistakes that cost us last season happened again in this game. I'd like to say we should have won this game, but it would be intellectually dishonest of me to ignore the fact that we lost this one in much the same way that we lost so many games last season. It was very disappointing to see that.

Griffin was actually pretty accurate today. I'd like to see them challenge the middle of the field more, but Griffin's passing wasn't the reason for this loss. It was red zone turnovers and still terrible special teams that lost this game. A blocked XP and a blocked punt in the same game - simply pathetic.

This literally looked like what game 17 would have looked like if we had to play 1 more last year. No difference. Just amateur mistakes that almost make you laugh if it wasn't so sad.

I dont mean he wasnt accurate. I mean he was not seeing the whole field, hence "missing" wide open wr's.

What we need is for Morgan and Long to speedup their learning process, time for a youth infusion.

Throw them in now! We aren't winning the Super Bowl, lets throw the young guys in there. I think within a couple games they would both be better than Polumbus and Chester, respectively.

He was 79.3% today. RG3 was not the issue today. The right side of the o-line, special teams, and the turnovers in the redzone were the issue.

The play calling was less than spectacular. They wasted the last 2 minutes of the first half.

We are a 8 - 8 team. We will go 6 - 2 at home team and 2 - 6 road team.

It still burns me up that we traded down when J.J. Watt was there for the taking in the 2011 draft. I love Kerrigan, and he is a solid player, but J.J. Watt is the best defensive player in the game, and he would have looked great in burgundy and gold. He was an absolute beast today. Thanks, Shanny.

We will probably get him in 8 years after he is good.

I agree with SDFan2001 - Within a few games you are going to have to make some decisions so throwing in the young guys at this point might not be a bad idea. With as bad as we looked by next month you already might be out of the playoffs, so giving them a good 7 or 8 games to play could be a good thing in the long run...

At least there would a be a reason for the right side to suck. Breaking in two rookies.
