Thaiphoon Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 3 hours ago, MKnight82 said: Why were we slinging for the endzone on 3rd down anyways? Even if we score we'd still give the Chiefs a full minute to score with our wore out defense. Why didn't we just go for the first down? I'm ok with the throw. If Kirk throws the checkdown and somehow we later either kick the FG or someone fumbles the ball away to KC, people grill him for not throwing for the TD on 3rd down. The play was there. Dox has to hold onto the ball. And we need to do a better job about time management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got KC on their heels and you just give them a break. He does this time and time again. It's like he has zero situational awareness.

We could've run off a bit of clock off there and made KC's job a bit harder in getting downfield for the GWFG. Jay seems to never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity in close games.

He botched last nights game. While the ideal situation would've been Doctson making the catch, it still would've left KC with plenty of time to go down the field. Getting he first down should've been first priority and then go from there. It's fine, the team seems to be growing but you can't win championships doing foolish stuff. Just ask Kyle Shanahan.

It's absurd. The game wasn't even over if Doctson makes the catch. They still had 50 seconds and two timeouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the execution of the players had a bigger impact than anything Gruden did. The Doctson drop, the Pryor multiple drops on 3rd down, the never ending defensive penalties. More egregious than the timeout were the lack of Chris Thompson and abandoning the running game in the 3rd quarter (which left our defense on the field way too long).

Dashing202 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I disagree strongly .. our O been improving every week. That was the best passing game we have had in a long while including last year . our OL protection was outstanding and our run blocking was decent all the way. What I do regret is that the Redskins didn't sign Alshon Jeffery instead of Pryor because we be 4-0 if our WR caught the ball. wouldnt be surprised if we traded Pryor or traded for a WR like Landry from the dolphins .

Dashing202 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 That being said I fully would like for the redskins to pick up a bet running back that's capable of holding on to the ball and possibly being our everydown back. im hoping we can get deangelo Williams or Ryan Mathews .

Okay, lots of things can go wrong on any given play, but perhaps going for the higher percentage one would have made more sense? Get the 1st THEN take the end zone shot.

People here won't ever admit Gruden a good coach. at 2-2 playing top teams we seem to act like we are losing to the browns the jets the dolphins etc .

They're a damn good team and there's no harm in admitting that. We went toe to toe with them and it took mistakes and shoddy clock management by Jay for them to win. While they did win and deservedly so it shows me we can compete with the best. The redskins are genuinely one of the NFLs best teams and everyone here knows how much of a pessimist I am.
