1. Brandon Lloyd is officially a backup, right? He looks like a rookie playing for the league minimum every time he sets foot on the field.
2. Wade and Fabini came in looking totally disjointed on the right side and we still don't have a run game (decent at pass protection).
3. The line utterly collapsed when Pucillo came in at center.
There are a lot of bright spots on D, but Godfrey is a proven vet (a guy any team could count on to come in and perform). So, GW did his job. WE HAVE NO OFFENSIVE CONSISTENCY - INJURIES OR NO F'ING INJURIES (NEW YORK), AND YOU CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO BE A PLAYOFF TEAM W/O BEING CONSISTENT ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.
But the real story here isn't the Redskins, it's how teams serous about winning rise to the occasion no matter what. Maroney goes out for NE and Morris comes in w/o missing a beat for 100 yd rushing games. Colts lose the the best blind-side tackle in the league to retirement and still go undefeated because they find and cultivate the talent to succeed. If Samuels goes out we get Stephen Heyer (a guy who almost cost our one consistent contributor on offense (Campbell) a whole fucking season because of poor execution.
Is the contrast clear enough? We don't have IT. We can, but it will take new management to get us their and we can't lose the few bright spots on offense in the meantime.
