3. Draft O-line badly especially C Rabach is garbage and get younger everywhere we can

I couldn't disagree more. Hastlett isn't the reason we are getting absolutely gashed every week. You have to have the players, and we dont, bottom line.
We only have a 1st, no 2nd, can't remember if we have 3rd, or 4th. We need to draft offensive lineman. Stop going after the flashy picks. The WR dont amount to shit if the QB is running for his life every play.
Rabach is as good as the two guards beside him. Which neither one of them is worth a damn. So it isn't all on Rabach. the whole unit sucks.
We have zero identity upfront. I am wondering if these coaches can find a way to maximize the guys up front and call to their strenghts, because what ever they are doing isn't working for crap. Quicker 3 step drops, more slants, some more screens. Something to get the ball out of McNabbs hands quicker.

The McNabb trade gave them our 2010 2nd, so I believe we do have a 2nd round pick. It also gave philly a 3rd or 4th in 2011. Plus the J. Brown trade was conditional as well I believe, think a 4th or 5th but not sure.

Anyways, w/our 1st & 2nd we may be able to trade back & get some more picks later in the 2nd, I expect Allen to look to make some deals on draft day. He did a good job of getting more late round picks in the last draft, let's see if he can get more 1st day picks next year.

Bull puckey! Haslett sucks, man. You can slice this shit anyway you want to. I doubt or at least hopes he's not here next year. We can talk talent all day long, brother, but the Skins have given up over 30 points or more four times this season! We've gone from a top ten (maybe top fifteen) defense to dead last in a year?!

I know that Shanahan is a good coach, but I am not a fan at all and am less than impressed with Kyle. It's completely absurd the Roydell Williams and Joey Galloway are still on this NFL roster 8 games into the season. Why not just bring up Austin to see what he's got? I mean really, is he going to do worse than zero catches? It's beyond me how you have a very capable, if not great, Derrick Dockery inactive every week while KL plays turn style with defensive tackles every game. Sure this team has missing pieces, but what team doesn't?

I'm guessing the guys that can't see the field have the talent (more than the guys on the field), but their work ethic is keeping them on the sidelines. I get the feeling Shanahan favors work ethic over talent.

You have to understand we dont have the studs upfront to be a successful 3-4 right now. And I dont believe we have the LB's to play it either. Beside Orakpo and Fletcher, the other two are playing out of position. When you dont have the personel the D is going to struggle, that is fact. this team was built with the personel to run a 4-3. The coaches should have recognized that and played the 4-3 until we had the people to switch. Hastlett has done a pretty decent job in the NFL of coaching defenses.
I agree about the WR. They are crap. Galloway is horrible. He does nothing for the offense. You can't tell me that Thomas was worse than Galloway. I bet they are kicking themselves for putting Kelly on IR, when he could be helping right now. We had opportunity to address the issue at WR and we didn't.
Dockery, have no clue why he isn't playing. Shanny drafted the guy playing LG, so i guess that has something to do with it. but have a hard time believing Dockery is as bad or worse than this dude.

100% agree. And anyone who keeps blaming this on a switch to a 3-4 isn't paying attention. We actually spend the majority of the time in 4-3 looks, we just juggle it around more than with Blache. But it's not working. Haslett's scheming is clearly shit.

Rabach is soooo pathetic but he gets made a captain and gets an extension?? Whaaaa?

I guess for me whats even more troubling than the on-field play (I wasn't expecting more than a .500 team this year) are all the personnel blunders. The Haynesworth debacle, Artis Hicks, Jamaal Brown, Lichtensteiger, Joey Galloway, Roydell Williams (you mean to tell me Devin Thomas couldn't be out-performing these two??), benching McNabb and how he explained it, etc etc. Shanahan has made some serious mistakes.

I'm not calling for his head after 9 games, but still...
