Hmmm, seems like both decision making and inaccuracy were issues today. Really poor outing for Kirk.

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Err... Windy...probably better off not even saying that at all...

Worth reading. Don't necessarily agree with Gruden's tenure being completely tied to Kirks performance myself.


Excerpt

• Head Coach Jay Gruden has become the master of deflection, blaming things like wind for Kirk Cousins’ poor outing. It’s very clear that Gruden is completely tied to Kirk Cousins. They day Cousins is benched, it’ll (probably) essentially mark the end of Gruden’s tenure with the Redskins. For some reason, the Redskins have consistently come out of halftime playing extremely flat. Through six games, they’ve only scored three points in the third quarter. That’s simply unacceptable. I’m sure there’s numerous areas that could be attributed to, but coaching has a lot to do with it. The Redskins don’t pre-adjust to the opposing team’s halftime adjustments. Washington should understand that this is the NFL — what works in the first half doesn’t always work in the second half. It’s like playing two different games. Right when the opposing team figures out one thing, you need to have a counter to it. The Redskins rarely do that. On Sunday against the Jets, not only did they falter in the third quarter, but they were completely routed throughout the entire second half. The Redskins were not well coached.

• I also have no idea what’s up with the running game. Every since Matt Jones’ big game in week two against the Rams, Washington has struggled to run the football. Part of that is, every since that game they’ve committed to trying to get Chris Thompson more involved and have not committed to a bell cow. I’m not sure if OL Coach Bill Callahan deserves some blame in this team’s inability to run the football. He is the run game coordinator. But he isn’t the one who decides on playtime for the backs.

Honestly it's a bit bizarre. Dont need to throw a player under the bus to say, 'Kirk had a poor game and needs to play better' and move on.

Excerpt

The loss puts an immense amount of pressure on the Redskins to deliver next Sunday, in a winnable home game against Tampa Bay. That contest is the final one before the bye week, which is the traditional time to make big changes in the NFL if a team needs them.

Gruden was fully aware of the situation.

“That’s been made known - it’s a critical game for us, very critical,” the coach said. “It’s code red for us.”

A weekly look at third quarter scores:

Week 1, Dolphins 0, Redskins 0: Washington’s 10-7 halftime lead didn't hold up, and Miami returned a punt to seal victory.

Week 2, Rams 10, Redskins 0: The Rams scored on their first two drives of the second half, though they ultimately lost.

Week 3, Giants 3, Redskins 0: This game got away from the Redskins in the first half, and they couldn’t mount a comeback.

Week 4, Eagles 13, Redskins 3: The Eagles scored on their first two drives of the second half, erasing a 13-0 halftime deficit, but Washington answered in the fourth quarter.

Week 5, Falcons 3, Redskins 0: The Redskins led 7-3 at the half, and Atlanta had two field-goal attempts in the third quarter, converting just one in an OT win.

Week 6, Jets 17, Redskins 0: New York scored on all three of its fourth-quarter possessions, turning a 13-10 halftime deficit into a blowout win.

Shockingly Gruden comes up with any excuse imaginable for Kirk.

 

[Krusheasy]

The entire team earned this loss.

its a chicken or the egg scenario ... or something ?

the defense would have executed better if the offense could of sustained drives.

the offense would have executed better if they weren't playing from so far behind where they have to abandon the run.

cousins would have executed better if the running game would have executed better ...

the running game would have executed better if Jackson was available to take their tops off ...

the o-line would have blocked better if 50% of them had played in the game ...

blah blah blah

Interesting quote for me...

Gruden was fully aware of the situation.

“That’s been made known - it’s a critical game for us, very critical,” the coach said. “It’s code red for us.”


Been made known by whom? I'm thinking Scot.

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Wonder if they try Long at center

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Hmmmm
