7 penalties against Pittsburg. But what is even worse...there was 1 penalty that was nullified because Pitt had a penaty on the same play...so Washington had EIGHT...THATS THE NUMBER 8..............8 penalties.
Sounds a lot like last year. Ray Brown had a holding penalty on a completed pass for a first down.....brought back! Betts had a holding penalty on a good kickoff return....brought back! What in the HELL is wrong with this team. Why can't any coach stop this madness. Not to sound insane...but it really is time to start cutting guys...veterans...starters or not...if they just can't stop the penalties.
What you're looking for are sound football players. Not a one play wonder and then on the next play they screw up. Betts dropped a Ramsey pass last week on a 3rd down that killed a drive. Tonight he commits a HOLD on a great return. Its just time to stop the mistakes and they won't just go away with the same old comments about "well, we're gonna look at the film and see if we can't correct the mistakes"
Coach. You're not correcting them. We had them when Spurrier was here. We had them when YOU were here last year. And this fresh, new year has started the same way as last year was played....many penalties.....and critical ones at that. Somebody has to pay. At some point you cut your losses and start setting an example. I can see that as clearly as I could see Pittburg blitzing on the 2nd and 10 play when Ramsey was hit in the face while throwing an interception. Was I the only one who knew they were going to blitz? God...you need to get me in the booth I guess. But I would have kept somebody in to protect Ramsey or called for a 3 step drop and throw. You just can't let Patrick fade back 5 or 6 steps when somebody is blitzing.... because he panics. Patrick panics in the face of a blitz. He usually folds up in the fetal position.
Put him in a position to win. 3 step drop and throw. 5 step drop and throw. The reason his deep passes are too short is because he throws them late. He drops back and sets...and looks...and then winds up and throws. Just throw the ball. Tell him to 5 step drop and throw.....and the receivers will run under it. It really is that simple.
