Great stuff, Tripp.

Why is Stan Hixon still on this staff if our WRs can't get open against Tampa's secondary???

It's a mystery to me.

As for JC, yeah, he's got to bounce back. But he did hit 2 big throws and he got the win, which at this point I think means a lot. Never underestimate the power of confidence, or what the lack of confidence can do to mess you up.

As for the clearly awful pass routes called: I think the gameplan was concerned with running the football effectively. Not that I'm saying that those things are mutually exclusive. But there were a lot of two receiver sets, and a lot of vertical impatience in this game. The crossing routes things are something that you would have done with halftime adjustments, but Zorn clearly went to his screen game instead. I don't know if that was right or wrong, but I do think it was influenced by Campbell's inaccuracies in the first half.

I just can't wait for the game in which GTripp simply say "We Sucked." I would love to be the fly on the wall when everyone opens the thread expecting this nice detailed work and all they find is ....."We Sucked." LOL.

Re: Redskins vs. Bucs Offensive Review: Gamblers, Losers, and Winners

I'm a little surprised at Tripp's review and the comments because very little is being said/questioned as to Jason's apparent (IMO) ailment in this game. He simply looked hurt and his technique was off. My guess is he was in more pain that anyone would guess because Jason has always been tough...took a ton of big hits last year and kept plodding.

I'm perplexed why Jason doesn't get out and run the ball more. Here we've got WRs who struggle mightily to get open or at least in a strong position to make a play on the pass. And defenses seem to really concentrate on shutting down our passing game as well. In my mind those circumstances should have Jason running the ball almost every other passing down. Ultimately this won't last as DCs will have to keep extra defenders close to the LOS on passing downs just to keep Jason from picking up 10 yards whenever he picks up his feet...and then the passing game opens up, probably a lot of underneath stuff to ARL in the slot or the TEs. But I think it's all about adjusting instead of forcing what isn't really there.
