Skins need to further invest in the trenches next season

I didn't see the game I was at work but I heard the DL did struggle a bit. I wonder if Shanny will change his stance on Big Al after this game if they actually played that bad?

No no, it's all good. You really should look into weather or not your kids can live off passing yards. Quite the feast today.

I see they went to overtime so I know they will be on NFLN Replay. I heard the secondary struggled again 497 yards in the air. Maybe I was in the minority but why didn't we go after FS O.J. Atogwe that was coached by Haslett? He was a pretty good player for the Rams.

It was more than D line play, it was a lot of little things that didn't salt this game away:

• Jammal's false start on 3rd and 1
• Fred Davis's weak block on the edge that allowed the blocked FG
• Donovan missing WIDE open Joey Galloway.

I'm more disappointed that the offense went dormant after dominating for 3 quarters. Perhaps better O-line play will allow us to win this type of game by running out the clock. This offense is even more dependent on the passing game that Philly was with Donovan.

The problem I saw was that the Redskins tried blitzing all the time and every
time they did Houston adjusted by throwing a screen or a short pass or a nice TD to Andre johnson. Our D allowed a hell of lot of yards, unacceptable!! We need a running game badly.

I must say that I love the way they use Landry on the blitz - hopefully his wrist isn't broken, because he is definitely one of the wild cards on this defense. As for the jump ball TD to Andre Johnson, I would have liked our chances a lot more with Kareem Moore back there. We need him to return ASAP because Doughty and Horton are serious liabilities in space.
