The Knee Jerk (and just PO'd) Thread (MET)

[Sticksboi05]

We are a wreck. It's absolutely amazing what Griffin does on the field despite the laughing stock around him. We have 2 players at skill positions. RG3 and Morris. That's it. On defense we have London Fletcher. That's it. I really can't see us winning another game. To hold the ball almost twice as long as the opponent and come away with a loss is comical.

People say we have to change the way Griffin plays o keep him healthy are right. However, we don't have the talent to compete in a conventional offense. The only two times we really had strong drives were running heavy play action in the 2nd qtr and garbage time against a prevent defense.

Penalties. Penalties.

Penalties.

Fletcher isn't that good anymore. Slow.

Does anyone have any solutions?!?!?!?!?

blow it up???

Fire bruce allen and all the coaches, bring someones new. Thats all I can think of.

[skins4eva]

He plays like a 5th rounder

He really does--he's not even better than Mcintosh.

[SkinsTerps26]

OK

FIRE EVERYONE ON THE DEFENSE AND SPECIAL TEAMS STAFF

Give Shanny 1 year, but really, start looking for new head coaches

SIGN CLADY, WALLACE, and BOWE

GIVE RG3 and Freaking chance.

Skins put up another putrid performance in what Shanny called a MUST WIN GAME!!! Skins have lost 8 of 9 home games. They are the most penalized team in the entire NFL. They have lost 3 straight and head into the bye at a pathetic 3-6.

At this point a knee jerk reaction would be saying something positive. Hard to put a spin on this devolving season that has any optimism.

Meanwhile Andrew Luck set an NFL rookie record for passing and has the Colts sitting pretty at an incredible 5-3 after going 2-14 last season.

Shows that it is possible to turn around a franchise quickly unless it's the Redskins!!!

+1000

The "patience" mantra needs to be dropped. It doesn't take 5 years in the current NFL.

Does anyone have any solutions?!?!?!?!?

Does it matter? The coaching staff sure as hell has no solutions!

[s0crates]

Paloffs is now? 7 in a row or we don't go?

Yeah right, who am I kidding? We stink.

[Mursilis]

The problem for the Colts was no QB. With Luck back they're in a similar position to what they would have been with an NFL caliber QB

That's fine, but how does that excuse Shanahan's record and complete lack of improvement?

[Sticksboi05]

I'm for firing Shanahan. 3 years, no progress, still poor execution and penalties and lack of preparation. Get out and take Kyle gimmick jr. with you.

[Edwardpena69]

Hopefully we can come out of the bye with a clear head, well rested and ready to play football.

[D'Pablo]

I see no progress from this team. We are missing two of our best passing threats, but neither is elite. In fact, Paulson has been decent in relief of Davis. We're just poorly coached and that's entirely on elder Shanahan. If his name wasn't associated with Superbowl victories from over a decade ago, he would be fired. When has Shanahan ever shown the ability to rebuild a team, anyway? He mostly inherited his championship teams, and then he operated in one of the most consistently terrible divisions in football.

[justice98]

Our high powered scoring offense has completely ground to a halt.

Loading up on big free agent isn't, has never and will never be the way to success in today's NFL.

That would be too little, too late.

Actually, that's not the right phrase. It wouldn't do anything to help, and would simply hurt the cap and the Skins' chances to do anything with the roster.

[Bacon]

I've never been more relieved for the bye. What an embarrassment. Giving up a 98 yard drive to one of the league's most one dimensional offenses? What a joke. 10 more minutes of TOP and 13 points to show for it? How much allowance does Kyle get for this ****?

Typically, I don't consider any player beyond reproach, but I won't hear one negative word about RG3. He is carrying this miserable team.
