goldenster95 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 . . . Manning got sacked early on and laid the ball on the turf . . . if we had anyone in the backfield, he picks it up and takes it to the house . . . would that have changed the game? . . . who knows? . . . but when you saw no one there and the Giants recovered the ball, it was that same damn turnover luck we've been having . . .

I knew it wasn't our day when Patten drops the ball on 3-14 for a first down. Brunell scrambles nicely throws a perfect ball and Patten drops it and the score at the time is only 6-0.....then for the rest of the game I counted 9 more dropped passes..PATHETIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilmer Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I suspected it during the National Anthem. My wife telling me we were going to get killed when she saw all those grand children added to the feeling. Tiki taking off on the first play laid the ground work. Then going 3 and out on the first drive and I was in "oh ****" mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskin56 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 We had opportunities early on that we didn't take advantage of. The Manning fumble is probably the biggest. Even recovering the fumble would have made a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartskins Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 We lost the coin toss. I just had a bad feeling from that point on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underwater Ally Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 When the first quarter ended with our O-line and D-line simply getting dominated in every way. They played with no spark and no fire and generally looked inept. The fumbles and dropped passes afterward were angering, but by the time those started coming, the game was essentially lost. It was just a matter of how bad it would be from there on out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Washington Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 we've been having plays like that for years. i never seen a team get a tip ball or fumble and no redskins are around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGibbs Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I knew it wasn't our day when I invited a Giants fan over and let him watch the game in my Redskins room. To make matters worse, his kids were there and I had to keep everything G rated. Joe if you are reading this, I'll say it again. Yesterday was an anomaly.

dfitzo53 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 We lost the coin toss. I just had a bad feeling from that point on. Funny you should say that. Before the game Fox showed a little graphic - both teams were undefeated coming into the game when they had lost the coin toss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailYeah Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I knew it wasn't our day early but I lost all hope when we FUMBLED THE OPENING KICKOFF OF THE SECOND HALF AND GAVE IT TO THEM ON THEIR OWN 23!!!! I want to hurt someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were 3 Redskins ready to scoop & score, but the sole Giant in position to get the ball (the OL beaten on the play) somehow came up with it. I posted this in my other thread, but it's relevant here also. The Redskins continue to have bad luck on turnovers. The Giants fumbled 2 times and recovered both. The Redskins? They fumbled 3 times and lost all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbuzz1962 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Superstitions have nothing to do with this loss. Lack of heart and desire to win and be leading the division is what caused this loss. Betts lack of concentration was the breaking point in this game. Come on Betts, where was your head? The skins needed that possesion to turn the game around, and your head was up your ass, and did the worst thing that could happen at that point in the game. He needs to be traded this year. He fumbles any time there is a critical point of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redman Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I began wondering when Barber broke the first long run, but then we stopped them with just a FG. I knew we were going to lose when Betts fumbled the second half kickoff because I knew that any halftime adjustments we made wouldn't matter. What a horrible, horrible game.

sugarbear326 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I was at the game and as soon as I got to Giants stadium, I got a bad feeling in my stomach. Once I got into the stadium, I pulled out my binoculars and looked on the skins side, they look like they were so out of it by the end of the first quarter.

ksun247 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 got into a bar argument about the skins possibly sweeping the division and then TIKI breaks the 1st play of the game 50+ :doh: Oh the embarassment...but we got PHILLY to beat this week...they looked awful at times against the broncos...who knows what 'Skins team will show up on Sunday... :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCS Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Ya know, I think it was about the third time that funny shaped ball squirted out of somebody's hands and bounced around, ( the wrong way yet again, I might add), that I decided that maybe Murphy and his laws were hanging out on the Redskins sideline.
