He'll w had 1st and goal from the 8 in four down territory. We could have run it twice and thrown it twice. Moss was inches from tying the game even though it was questionable why we didn't try that fade to garçon or reed.

I don't totally hate this team or even the play calling, but when you have been sacked twice in a row you don't run another play action pass.

Get this team a defense and they can compete with anyone.

If we scored a TD on our first trip down to the one we are kicking a FG on 4th down last night to tie the game.

Woulda coulda shoulda. Oh well

To finish the year...
Fire everyone with last name shanahan.
Interim HC Raheem.

Offseason...
Fire Haslett.
Promote Raheem to DC and return to 4-3 defense.
Get DL to get pressure since rakpo can't
Get Safeties thru draft to compete with '13 class.
Make Riley the lone MLB and retire London

Find HC and OC who likes the weapons on offense, big salary cap, practice bubble, training camp in VA

Shouldn't be too hard, right?

I honestly think Orakpo has been playing pretty solid. The problem with our D-line is that the interior lineman are really struggling right now to collapse the pocket

[WaldSkins]

Our defense and special teams are beyond horrible

[WaldSkins]

When is washington gonna say enough is enough with London Fletcher and pull the plug?

That last play to Moss should have never been necessary. That said, I thought the play call was fine but Griff put (had to put)? a little too much air on it. I don't think the intention was a fade but a simple corner route

What about the misread and throwing to the actual open receiver Garcon on the square in for the TD?

So question, was it the play design or the execution? Because who in their right mind throws a fade to the smallest receiver in the end zone or who puts their smallest receiver on that route to be thrown too? Poor. These are the small things that cost dumb teams.

That being said, because of we like to finger point the defense more responsible for the loss. Pathetic to let ponder have a game like that.

Exactly.I didnt like the call,and if you were ok with the call{smootsmack}how can you be ok with who the balls being thrown to?
If your gonna make that call its got to go to Hankerson or Garcon,not the smallest receiver on the team whos had the dropsies anyway.Moss had no chance of getting his feet down,a receiver with a longer reach might have.
Terrible decision making at its finest

SS, do you know if the offense game planning is all on Kyle or is Shanny involved as well?

I dont know,maybe he has,I cant remember all his td catches.I do know I will never like that call,I dont like the fade to begin with,and I cant stand it even more on 4th down to the shortest guy on the field.
The fade is probably the hardest throw to make,as summo said its got to be perfect,and its got to be one of the harder passes to catch also,its always over the shoulder with a defender in your face and trying to keep your feet in bounds.Why call a play that is probably the hardest play in football to execute?

[BaltimoreSkins]

Didn't see it mentioned, but that was Garcon's first back to back 100 yd games as a Skin.

[redskin37]

Off season free agents and draft . O line , defence and special teams. Let the young player get reps . Say thanks to Moss and Fletcher but were moving on with youth.

Unfortunately this game turned out just as I thought it would:

You cant blame special teams for losing the game for us,that was an all around effort,but I said it would probably come down to who won the special teams battle and it did.

There was the fake punt that got the 5 yard penalty,then the 15 yarder on the punt which gave the ball to Minnesota with 41 yards to go,TD Vikings.
Then Rocca with a 33 yard punt to give the Vikes another short field at the 50,another Vikings td.
Its time for Rocca to go,he's just too inconsistant,he's good for at least 1 bad punt a game.

If this regime doesnt get a new punter next yr it just shows their incompetence.
Forbath cant kick it in the endzone,so we need to find a punter that can kickoff and punt.
