Re: Sports Junkies talking about a Campbell rumor

we're 0-2 in division (last year we went 5-1) and unlike when we won out, our D has been awful and we generally haven't lost close games (again unlike last year). I think the play-calling has been beyond terrible as well.

we'll see, but i've seen NOTHING to make me believe they'll switch the flip in time to save the season. and the coaching staff hasn't made a single noticeable adjustment since jacksonville.

I'm dissappointed in some situational playcalling, but on the whole, the creativity is really night and day compared to last year. Something we expected.

The offense and special teams (outside of FG kicking) make be believe there is a chance. There isn't unless the D starts playing better, but I've seen this unit rise from the dead before. Hopefully, the problem was injuries. One good game is all it takes to turn the year around.

The entire season to this point has been played in unfavorable conditions (many road games, injuries, bad teams playing well above their potential), and at some point, that's going to turn around.

there's no creativity, and that's part of why we're seeing troubles. outside run right, outside run left, screen right, screen left. crowd the flats and we're done. no need to cover deep, no need to bother guarding the middle. not to mention all that motion stuff stopped being used in week 2 and the shotgun, audibles, and that stupid dump off to cooley we used on EVERY 3rd and short last year (and always worked) are ALL mia (no shotgun = brunell is watching the pass rush and not looking down field).

saunders fixed an offense that wasn't broke and and replaced the good plays with stuff that isn't working (we don't have 2 HoF AND pro-bowlers on the OL like he had in KC). the playcalling flat out sucks cause it's built around players that aren't wearing redskin uniforms with an OC that's looking to jump ship as soon as a head coaching job is offered. I mean, where's the creativity in calling the screen so often that the CBs are meeting it in the backfield 50% of the time?

That's why it's so difficult to attempt to predict what they're going to do from one game to the next. We've have played seven games thus far and each one looks like a continuation of the last one, the only thing that changes is the other teams uniforms.
