Time for the Jets

[redsk1]

Wade is clearly not a nfl caliber starter. Fabini is clearly not a nfl starter. They are not doing well. Run blocking is a major issue and pass protection is not their strong point either.

Our "backups" should be a little better than this. I don't expect them to jump right in and be no bumps in the road, but you've got to be better than what they are. Maybe the fact that we haven't had a draft in about 5 years could be contributing factor.

Anyways, the Jets are next and our offense has got to do something. The offense is really bad, often. They are good occasionally. If the "O" can't get it together we may not win another 4 games. I believe this week is a season changer. I have no idea what to expect out of the skins at this point.

According to some people around here, Todd Wade is every bit as good, or even better than Jansen... After watching him decide to block NOBODY on several plays yesterday, I have to disagree.

Regardless of how bad the Jets defense is, the Washington offense is still going to stuggle without some sort of cohesion along the offensive line. I think they'll beat the Jets, but it's going to be a lot closer than people think, unless they come out swinging, and pissed off.

Yup. On that note, who was Vrabel beating for the sacks? Was it a back, tight end, Wade, Fabini, or some combination thereof?

On one of the sacks, Wade looked at Vrabel, then looked inside, and Vrabel just ran right around him untouched. Wade didn't make contact with a singles defender on that particular play. On a few other blitzes, Wade just whiffed on his pickups.

Fabini looked just as bad, but most of the blitzes were coming from the edge, so his poor performance was overshadowed a bit.
