Guys this is coaching. We have outplayed Miami all game. This is about mental discipline and preparation.

That's exactly what I was about to post. We don't need an opponent, we can beat ourselves just fine.

Yep, missed field goal, tons of penalties, dropped passes, dropped interceptions, giving up special teams TDs ..... recipe for losing.

Playcalling is a huge joke how many passes have they attempted down field
Why would you do that? We are killing them with quick hitters for 10-15 yds a pop. We just are killing ourselves with penalties.

always a combination of both ... but i choose to blame the talent.

not like coaches can go out on the field and make a play


cant blame coaches for roberts bad hands ... but maybe the talent evaluaters

What don't you understand. The other team gets paid too, they made a play. Skins wanted to take a shot and 2nd and 4 is a good down for that. That is football 101. If you miss you have 3rd and 4 which is still not a bad situation and it is the reason you take a shot on 2nd down. Skins are limited at taking shots with DJax out. Have you seen Grant anywhere other than the huddle.

The mistake was the 5 yard penalty that put them in 3rd and 9. I am betting both Dan Fouts and aren't wrong. Did you listen to Dan. Oh the penalty hurt, it changes the amount of plays you can call.

If you want to argue strategy have something other than "how'd it work?" If you think it was a bad play call than most likely you don't know the game very well.

Real football 101......if you're doing something successful, make them stop you. You run the ball there and you either make it easier on 3rd down or get the first.

Not going to do 22 posts with you. A run would have been fine, what they called was not a bad play. You can't teach people who don't want to be taught.

This is what I don't want to see, he is forcing the ball.

Yep and without DJax we have no speed to threaten with.

I totally agree, hard to teach stubborn, BTW: since you wanted to quote Fouts, at the 3:30 mark of this quarter he said that Washington is going back to what they were most successful at, pounding the ball, pass took them out of the established rhythm, really not that difficult to understand.......like I said stubborn.

It appears we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory with multiple mistakes.

11 penalites
give up a ST touhdown.
drops
dropped INTs

This is how you have repeant 3-4-5 win seasons.
