Anger.......
 

Wow. I guess if your're going to throw up a duck, this is just a great time to do it. No. 1 offense, against the 32nd pass defense, and you just can't get it done. I'm speechless. Now we get to go into New York next week, right as the Giants are getting healthy. Not good. Of the final three games, this is the LAST one I thought we would choke on. Unbelievable. :bang:

The best I could do was watch in horror, on the online game tracker. Could someone explain what happened? Solar eclipse maybe?

RE: Anger.......
 

outcoached.

RE: Anger.......
 

Think about the matchup next week? Manning, Barber, Plexico, Jacobs, and Shockey vs This D?

If the Giants get these types of opp that the Skins did today, they'll put up 40 pts.

Excpect a shootput next week!

RE: Anger.......
 

after this kind of performance today, are you sure you didn't mean shutout?

RE: Anger.......
 

Line issues all day

Re: RE: Anger.......
 

Let's not push the panic button. This loss did really suck, but it was just a simple case of our team looking past a team with nothing to play for. We aren't good enough to look past teams and still win. So hopefully this will get them nice and PO'ed for the playoff run.

On the bright side. LOOK AT THE BEARS RIGHT NOW. They are getting pounded.

come oooon, Bucs...

Never know, never know. If they get the Saints that licked the Cowgirls then...........

Re: Anger.......
 

Basically they just gutted us up the middle with Betts all day. Our D did an admirable job(considering how much we know they suck) but our O did exactly diddly poo, to quote a former coach. Also they seemed to get a lot of 3rd downs converted.

Re: RE: Anger.......
 

If we play like we did today against the Giants, it will be no shootout. It will be three hours of root-canal like misery watching our team get destroyed. I agree with the poster above regarding coaching. Our game plan and play calling today were absolutely awful.

It matters not. Bears #1 seed anyways

Re: Anger.......
 

They didn't! :!:

Redskins 5-13
Saints 8-17

Redskins murdered us on 1st downs mainly. Big, BIG, BIG gains

RE: Anger.......
 

I just don't get it. We go into Dallas, and beat the stew outta them. Return home, and just lie down. To the freakin Redskins! Now THIS reminds me of a Haslett team. Win the ones your supposed to lose, and lose the ones your supposed to win. If this is a sign of games to come, then I don't think I want to watch next week. It's going to be a slaughter.

Where the hell was the mighty Reggie today? Drew Brees MVP? Not anymore. Sounds like the ghost of Billy Joe Tolliver. By the looks of things, Brees was stoned. Was Ricky Williams in the locker room before the game?

The "feel good story" of the year, just turned into "Nightmare on Canal Street". What is the freakin deal with the Saints at home?!

Well the Bears aren't exactly blowing the heads off of the Bucs today.

Re: RE: Anger.......
 

Nightmare? Geez.... :roll:

yes, I know but it gives me grim satisfaction that Chicago is not impervious to the Bucs. That gives me confidence about the playoff scenario.

Gold Rush

As I said in the chat room. Saints can beat ANY NFC team. Whi in NFC is sure of beating us. Nobody.

BTW: List of Redskins big 1st down plays:

1st Q
1-10-WAS29(14:54) L.Betts right guard to WAS 40 for 11 yards (J.Bullocks).
1-10-NO43(12:58 ) A.Randle El right end to NO 23 for 20 yards (J.Bullocks). Randle El reverse, lines up as left out to right side.

1-10-NO24(7:13) L.Betts left tackle to NO 11 for 13 yards (J.Bellamy).


Ugly. But it was ugly on O, on D, on Special teams.

Next week bro'. gr8 test. Will a qualified NFC contender stand up?

Re: RE: Anger.......
 

I apologize. I'm just very angy right now. I don't like to lose, and this is how I vent. At the same time, the Redskins? I think that' what bothers me the most. They are a fighting for a good spot in the draft, while we are looking to lock up a second seed here. I just don't understand the team not taking this game seriously. It's just not a good sign.

Well I was watching the game it just seemed like they were moving the ball a lot. It seemed as if they were converting a lot of 3rd downs.

In any event the Bucs just put up 31 in Chicago and they may win. I would be more concerned if we played our best like Chicago is offensively and still lost. I'm highly disappointed in this loss but I know Payton will lay into EVERYONE this week.

Re: RE: Anger.......
 

We have a winner.

The Skins dominated both lines. That's it.

One thing I would like to see from our defensive coordinator is more blitz packages. As I have stated a gazillion times before, if your DB's suck, and they're going to get beat 9 out of 10 times anyways, at least make them useful and rush the QB!!!! Look what happened the few times we blitzed, mis-thrown ball, knocked down pass and a sack. Then, on the other side of that, look what happened when the QB had time, a sandwich, a manicure, catching up on his reading and, oh yes, moving the ball when he needed to on 3rd down. Geez, you have to DISGUISE your weakness, not put them out on an island to be burnt time and time again!! Ok, I'm through venting. Next. :greengun:

Yes, our defense didn't play well today, but the offense was just as bad, I mean in the last 6 games the Saints have scored 30+ per game, today, 10, no protection for Brees today, that was a big factor in only scoring 10 points.
It just wasn't our day I guess..

My keys to the game:

1) Drops. Uncharacteristically so across the board. Usually there's someone who takes charge when the bobbles start and makes good on catchable balls. It didn't happen tonite.

2) Bad D reads. Drew didn't do anything but look at exactly where that ball was going. Whatever happened to 'looking off' before throwing the ball. EVERYONE is looking for Reggie to get the ball in the flat by now. Stop throwing it there when its not working. Which leads me to...

3) Coaching's failure to make adjustments. When a D is all over you and your usual gameplan isn't working, then you go back to bread and butter. I kinda saw this happening with the last few games, but reliance solely on Bush is just plain bad football. Reggie is NOT ready to take the feature back load. Laying it on him now is sorta like plucking fruit that's not quite ripe. With some patience, you'll have something satisfying and oh so sweet, but only if you wait. The ball should've been sent between the tackles and given to Deuce for far more touches.

Just my 2 cents

despite getting beat in almost all phases of the game we still had a chance at winning it. that does say some thing. what exactly i am not to sure off right now. but it something
