Callahan is married to his super run-heavy offense, whether we are behind by 14 or not. We ran on 90% of the first down plays. We passed on about 80% of the third downs. That predictably is a killer for a young team like the Redskins.

If this team had proper coaching, we would win 4 or 5 more games even WITH THE CURRENT players.

This absolutely. We have talent all over this team. Do we need help in some positions? Yes, of course, we do. O-Line needs help. The back end of the defense needs help. TE needs help.

But competent coaching would go a long way towards making us a middle of the road or better team. There is no way we shouldn't be competitive in the NFC Least.

Callahan's a bitcb and punted the game away at the 50.

The future of this team comes with whether Snyder fires Bruce Allen or not. Without dumping BA the coaching will stay at the current poor level. Only the mediocre or very inexperienced will come to coach here with BA as the GM and VP. It’s as simple as that.

Louis Riddick. He would take the job and I think he would do a good job. Bring him in and let him bring in his choice for coach.

Look at drew lock...worse oline, way worse, rookie HC and first time o coordinator.

Where are his excuses? 100 times the passer than Haskins. It’s not fucking close

You may be right. But then on the last drive I see Haskins drive the offense down the field for a score. Until Haskins has a unfettered OC with a real NFL offensive scheme, I think you have to give him more time. Ultimately he may end up being a RG3, Jason Campbell or Heath Shuler draft busts. But when you use a first round #15 pick you have to give him a proper shot.

Do you mean when McLaughlin had to reach back to make a one handed grab cause the pass was so far behind him? That has nothing to do with the OC. He simply can't consistently hit open wr's.

He has accuracy problems, yes. His footwork needs work, yes. But when the OC ran a series of plays not geared to some archaic and super predictable 1960’s style of run oriented offense, he drove the team down the field.

The OL is weak in pass protection, the OC or Callahan is calling a very predictable, super run-heavy offensive scheme, the RB (both AP and Thompson) routinely miss blocks in pass protection. We have poor TE. Our starting WR are all new. It would be difficult for anyone to succeed consistently with these handicaps. Not excusing his play, nor am I saying he will succeed in the NFL. But calling a rookie QB a bust after 4 games is premature. Maybe we’ll know more by the end of the season.

The team has a great draft pick coming up. Maybe in the top 3. It’s important that if BA is fired and we get a good or very good HC that the team use this draft pick well. If the team wastes that pick on another QB, when there are 3 holes on the OL, or Chase Young is available that would hurt the team just when we have a chance to dig itself out of the crater that Snyder and BA have made.

It’s easy to say, Haskin’s sucks, Sweat sucks. Until this team is properly coached it’s tough to evaluate rookie players. I myself reserve judgement until the season is over and we see how much Haskins grows or doesn’t grow in the next three games. You can’t succeed in the NFL unless you have a franchise QB. We need to get one whether it’s Haskins or someone in this draft.

I totally agree......

... though I would add one further point, even if we accept that Haskins is a bust, drafting a quarterback in round 1 this year makes no sense unless you commit to spending a small fortune on O line FAs, otherwise the new guy will get killed an we will be back to where we started
Any new coach/gm has a lot of work to do to fix this mess, give them a year or two to get things sorted, especially the Oline, then draft a quarterback. Haskins will have then had a fair chance to prove his worth, or not

He only needs more time because he has horrendous fundamental flaws that could improve his accuracy if corrected. Right now it is an insult to RG3 to compare the two. Haskins has had a grand total of zero games where he hasn't been a boat anchor to the offense in 6 appearances. He has a 58.5 QB rating so far in his rookie year, RG3 was a 102.4. How is Haskins going to do when the league figures him out? Please stop being hopeful about this guy, he has shown NOTHING so far.

RG3'S rookie year, we had excellent playcalling based on his talents.

It's also insulting to Haskins to act like all things are equal. This coaching staff is setting him up for failure.

[Indian-brave]

well, darn, I was wrong about this narrative.
but they did let Skins march down field to cover.

[Chico23231]

This was a bad performance today by Haskins

[skinsfaninok]

Dwayne proved he can play through pain today which is good but there is no doubt that he really struggles with accuracy, if that doesn't improve he will not b a starter for very long.

Just when it looked like Haskins was making some progress he turns in another shit sandwich. I know he is a rookie but Lock comes in today played well on the road. We have yet to see anything from Haskins that resembles what Lock did.

Otherwise I thought these guys played hard, but they got no help from the coaches. Who the fuck is calling that an NFL offense? Unimaginative, predictable that is the Redskins offense. They should have put Case in the game if you ask me.
