9-7

Despite that I want to pull my hair out after setting it on fire, cussing up a storm, breaking somehting and just going crazy in general, there are 15 games remaining.

RG III was a complete unknown.... Honestly it could have gone either way.. I stated this before... He could come out feeling the weight of the NFL or pure ignorant and oblivious ... He was oblivious... It just has not set in jet. Shanahan made a game plan to exploit that...

Regardless... I am glad we do not have to see them again.

I am simply frustrated that year after year we continue to field a crappy defense. Today's defensive performance was an abysmal one by any measure. No, it's not the end of the world, but that doesn't mask the fact that we suck on defense year after year. We have good players. I just don't understand.

We just let a rookie throw for 300+ yards and hang a 40 burger on us. If now isn't the time for the alarm it's sure as hell time to wind the clock. That was the worst performance I've seen in a very long time.

No excuses. No sugar-coating. No "we'll get 'em next week". Today was bad. It was really REALLY bad.

So much for a more fundamentally sound D, no one even noticed garçon on that 90 yard TD

Kinda hard to stay fundamentally sound when you have a dual threat QB like RGIII. Not excuses, I can just see the difficulty in having to worry about the screen, option, plus he can pass pretty decent too...

roman had him, and a redskins reciever made a good block/pick on roman.

Anything is possible, but the Saints should have won this game in the dome. Hopefully it will be a wakeup call. Greer needs to be healthy.

Look at it this way.

We no longer have the pressure of going undefeated on our shoulders.

Yeah, now we have the pressure of not winning a game for the rest of the year, like the lions.
