Re: Redskins midterm grades

I think we have great, great talent on both sides of the ball. I think we've shown what we're capable of. So I'm gonna go a different route:

Coaching: C

Gibbs and Co. definitely haven't been great this year. A bunch of questionable calls, maybe some delegation problems, a few clock management errors, and some bad halftime adjustments, or lack thereof. But they have done a good job of keeping the team together, focused, and confident.

Consistency: C
This one is pretty self-explanatory. We're very, very up and down on offense. The defense is what beefs this grade up to a C. Frost hasn't been very good, but Suisham has saved us a few times.

Fundamentals: C-
Lots of fumbles, some awful drops by the WRs, some spells of bad run and pass blocking by the O-line, some really bad use-your-head type penalties (i.e. false starts and personal fouls), a few spells of bad tackling...

Heart(Character?): B+

IMO this is the biggest reason we aren't worse than 5-3. We have a whole bunch of don't quit in our guys. The best example was the way the team came to Redskins park the Monday after the Pats debacle. Focused and ready to get better no matter what. Countless team/coach/player meetings, full contact practices, no excuses. This is my favorite part of our players, coaches, and may I add, FANS.

HAIL.

This is probably our biggest problem. JC is inconsistent, the WRs are inconsistent, the running game is inconsistent, etc. We were dominating both Green Bay and the New York Giants in the first halves of those games, and got dominated in the second halves.
