3rd and 21.. clearly the play of the game.. Fault Haslett?

[PortisBetts]

Read sir. He said HASLETT'S CALL, not the defense. The defense does what its told. It was told to be moronic. 3rd and 21, they are out of field goal range and you go all-out blitz? Are you kidding me? Leave Hall in 1-on-1 coverage. Absolutely cost us a chance to ice the game. Let them get their 10 yard completion and call it a night.

Horrible. I was enraged watching. There was zero, zero reason to call 8 on the blitz there.

I agree that call was bad. Shouldnt matter when you hold a team to no touchdowns and only 18 points, again with multiple stops on 3rd down to end drives. Ill take 18 points against us any day of the week. Offense and special teams failed us once again.

How in the blue hell is this Haslett's fault?

Would you like to know why we lost this game?

Because we have an oline who's run blocking scheme is based totally on finese and has no power whatsoever in short yardage and goaline situations.

We needed to grind out yards in the fourth quarter and we had no ability to do so.

Plus we have an OC that ran a total of TWO screens the whole ball game and a QB that refuses to throw to a back in the flat because he wants to go deep all the freakin time.

The Norv is still strong within this franchise and I'm seriously doubting that there's a cure.

[Sticksboi05]

It worked all game. The Cowboys were merely lucky enough to get the time to throw this time. It wasn't a horrible call.

If any side lost us the game it was the offensive side. You can't score 16 measly points and expect to win a road game. You can't have that many opportunities and fail to produce.

The defense did a decent job tonight and were put in a corner consistently.

You are failing to take into account the situation. If you want to play hard ball in the 2nd quarter, fine. With 2 minutes left in the 4th and up by a point, you play it SMART and play a prevent there and let them get their 10 yards and 4th and long. Instead you give them the once chance to get the big play. Hall 1-on-1 with any halfass receiver is a mismatch.

That was a horrible, horrible decision.

One of the worst defensive calls I've ever seen....how can I sit in my living room, never having coached a football game and be screaming for the D to back up and cover and he doesn't know to do that...you blitz to get it into 3rd and long...then you back your ass off and cover....probably doubling their best best reciever, who happened to catch the ball...hopefully he will learn from this and not cost us another game....If you put this on Grossman you have no knowledge of the game.

[skinfan13]

A lifetime of watching the skins be nothing but mediocre to awful. I am SO ****ING FED UP with these ****-punting dick-sucking mother-****ing losers. What a bunch of over-paid prima donna ass muchers. I'm so SICK AND ****ING TIRED of the goddam Redskins. ONCE, just ****ing ONCE in my lifetime could you please win a ****ING GAME of goddam consequence? ONCE you MOTHER ****ERS

[shakinaiken]

what i find to hard to believe is that, of all the botched snaps by by cowboys center phul costa, we couldnt get one fumble recovery... seriously, romo was in the backfield scrambling like 5 times

[The Slamming Butcher]

I don't know about worst EVER, but it was pretty dang bad.

[MonkFan8]

There were two players on the Dallas offense that could possibly beat us and we let it happen with the game on the line. Hall was characteristically awful.

Can anyone tell me why our receivers were playing 10 yards off when Romo needed to get rid of the ball in 3 seconds to avoid getting hit?

That all-out blitz call was phenomenally stupid when we were literally unable to get pressure all night.

[RedskinWill]

Simple guys you can't fault haslett the offense only scored 16 PT and no consistency today...ask NE if they don't mind having a defense that only gave up FG's? I blame it on the offense!

[HogNose]

Close this god damn thread, it is not Haslett's fault. They didn't score a damn TD, and we had them on their heels the whole game. Our Redzone offense lost it. F them, we will end up with a better record and beat them in DC. Oh also...F THE DAMN REFS.

[Smurf85]

I agree that was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. I mean if anything fake the all out and drop some guys back. As far as I'm concerned the whole coaching staff lost us the game. Our play calling in the red zone was a joke and it was last year too. As far as I see it we are pretty much the same team with a few upgrades. We will probably be 8-8 when the year is done. We will have to do something to trade up and get a QB, because Rex isn't the answer.

[Bubble Screen]

We all know it, this was the play that inevitably led to our doom.. so bad play call by haslett? or just dumb luck by romo and bryant?

If our holder doesn't botch the snap, we probably end up winning the game. One play didn't cost us the game.

[luckydevil]

Just an awful awful play call. Good for Casserly calling him out on it.

[Phil Lesh]

When the Skins failed to score the TD after the fumbled completion to Ogletree I knew they were in trouble.

[sugarbear326]

Please tell me how you let a player ( Dez Bryant) beat you and on every play he is limping out to the formation. D Hall, if you can't play a player man up who is injured, you're not that Good!!!
