SKINZ Fans and Mr. Synder,

My wife and I have been LOYAL Redskins fans for over 50 years! We're sick of wasting our precious weekends to watch an embarrassing performance. As LOYAL Redskins fans...RG III has GOT to go!!!!!! He holds the ball too long and doesn't see the field. Colt should have continued to start as he DESERVED the opportunity. Get rid of RG III Mr. Synder, or I'll waste my MONEY and TIME on another team!!!!!!!!!!!

Your first post is a tantrum? No you di'int... I'm not going to dispute your conclusions about Bob... but I have no intention of getting off this bus. Dixie, however, is free to go.

The O-line is awful. It allowed Morris to put in a 120+ yard game.

false analogy

Griffin has no awareness in the pocket. .

True. This was very obvious in the case of the last sack, and on one occasion where it was obvious that the O line set up for a 5 step drop, and Bob took 7

He is shaken and lacks any confidence. His passes are rarely anywhere near being on-target. Keep riding him if you want, but Washington has 2 TD's in 9 quarters now.

True... BUT:
Unfortunately for your false analogy, most of us are actual fans of the game, and realize that Pass pro if VERY different from run blocking. Ask any O Lineman, they will tell you that pass protection is a very different... and much more difficult... skill set.

Our O line still sucks... While I saw at least 3 examples of Bob causing his own sacks, that fact remains... our line sucks. I still saw several turnstile plays, including 1 by Moses, and one by Corey... there were others, but I was too busy jamming ice picks into my eyes to watch.

Quit riding my jock, dude I am fully aware the skill set is different for pass blocking and rush blocking. They CAN seem to block well enough for Morris to perform well. My first sentence was supposed to be somewhat sarcastic/tongue-in-cheek.

Absolutely, it was sarcastic... apparently, you didn't get the response you thought you should... but the fact is, just because a line can run block doesn't mean they can do the most important thing... protect the quarterback... this line clearly cannot do that on a consistent basis.

Niners made a sack..business as usual, back to the huddle. Kerrigan made a sack and acted like a fool with his showboating. Somebody needs to tell him to cool it. Perhaps it could be Ryan Clark. Class move by him to go give some dap to Bouldin after his penalty.

The muscle-man stuff by Kerrigan is a bit tacky... but, it's something he's consistently done, and this is an otherwise very classy player. But, you are right... Ryan Clark is all class.

What you seen was a coach that wanted the win more. Gutsy call from Harbaugh on 4th down to go for it...twice. Gruden on the other hand continue to go into halftime with timeouts and time to score.

now we just need to see Robert continue to play well - I am so happy for our QB

Were you watching some replay game from 2012 or something?

ZERO pocket awareness. ZERO confidence. ZERO reasons as to why he should still be the starter.

I don't even know why Griffen started the 2nd half. If Gruden is evaluating, what is it he is focusing on?
The O line isn't as bad as the fingerpointers would have you believe, defending RGIII is a task the very best would find a challenge.
Griffen isn't competant, thats given, the real question is if Gruden is competant. A head coach has to be a motivator and posses excellant judgement.

Alfred had a hell'uva game and Djax on punt returns as a way just to touch the ball.
