Official THN Gameday Thread: WAS vs NE

All three units look poor. At least we are seeing a lot now: hurry up offense, reverses, etc. so we can get these problems fixed b/4 9/11. This is no fun at all.

Brady just called his tenth audible on a third down! I can't believe they are calling audibles in the preseason! They MUST REALLY WANT TO WIN THIS GAME FOR SOME REASON! I don't know why! I just want to see what Ducket, Campbell, Macintosh and others will do! I guess I'll really see what they can do now!

Calling audibles in the preseason? Last time I remember the Redskins doing that was under Spurrier!

How can our D go from so good to soooo BAAAD in one off season?

At what point do the coaches say, "we've been embarrased enough. Lets open this playbook up." Or whats scary, have they allready said that?

He was never known as a cover guy. He's a blitzing safety and decent guy against the run.

And where does that leave Sean Taylor????

Picking up the slack?

Hopefully NE will put their scrubs in soon so that we'll have a chance to get something going.

Yeah, trying to win games is dumb. I'm glad our guys aren't doing that.

Brunell just ate turf, but hey, who wants to win preseason? Missing blocks is fine!

Why shouldn't they? Id think that reading the defense and selecting the proper counter play is good preperation for the season.

They aren't cheating, we're just not doing good.

Wasn't it Lombardi who said "You don't practice losing!!"

We really suck tonight.

I'm not as worried about winning as much as I am about production but I'm not seeing any positive signs from the team.

I'd like to at least see a glimpse of life from this team.

Lonie may have just lost the punting job battle

Are you serious these guys need work. Its not the playbook they're not doing the fundamentals.

ArizonaHOG · Post by **ArizonaHOG** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 9:11 pm

Perhaps we should have Gibbs call a few plays.

Some points would be real nice. Has the first team offense scored at all in the preseason, or has it just been the 2nd and 3rd team?

yupchagee · Post by **yupchagee** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 9:13 pm

Is Watson playing that well or are we playing that bad?

Brady's got all day, and they're moving at will. I think they're over 200 yards already! It's not a pretty picture.
