Don't get to see the Skins play often and have 2 Questions about Skins Offense

[NFLAnalyzer]

Why is Jason Campbell only throwing side passes or short passes every posession?

They seem to have no interest in throwing the ball down the field which explains why Campbell wasn't throwing Interceptions.

offense?....What offense?...

[rdskn4eva]

The redskins offense is the west coast offense. Its going to be mostly short passes

[PeterMP]

1. They have problems protecting against normal teams and the Steelers rush is better than normal.

2. They are running a west coast offense, which is centered around quick passes on short drops.

[NFLAnalyzer]

The coaching staff has Campbell looking like a manager instead of a QB. Either he throws a side pass or a short pass. Nothing over 15 yds

[NFLAnalyzer]

The Eagles run the West Coast Offense and you see Mcnabb throw beyond 15 yds.

This offense is embarassing tonight

[Saqs]

Deep passes require deep QB drops. It aint happening tonight with the way the protection is going.

[HBnotBlades]

The steelers have a fantastic pass rush, we've been trying to run short passes with 3 step drops to get it our of Campbells hands quickly. Whenever we dropback further, the line can't seem to hold of the steelers rush and campbell is swarmed.

this team has a **** offense. Cant score nearly enough points. Cant throw deep. Can't pass block. Campbell cant adjust to the blitz.

We should be counting our blessings this team managed to achieve 6 wins. Dont forget we struggled against the lions, browns, and got beat by the rams.

pretty easy to defend when you never take a chance past 10 yards. horrific play calling, in fact it has reminded me if the past 4 years. well its first down and a close game what wil we do....run for a 1 yard gain.

and i got news campbell is not that good

[TheLongshot]

I'm guessing it is because they've had pretty good coverage downfield. There have been a few times that Campbell has looked downfield and ended up checking it down.

Jason

[longball]

Or he keys in on one receiver so the safety pullls over as he never checks anyone off.

Just like that play! Who knows what the hell is going on tonight.

Basically because Moss is too injured to be effective and the Oline doesn't give enough time.

What teams are doing well with the West Coast offense? Anyone? Anyone? Our offense it's pathetic, it got overlooked since we were winning. Let's roll off 3 or 4 losses in a row (which is very possible) and we'll see where the patience is in this crap offense. We don't have the receivers to run this. Santana Moss should see the ball 6-10 times a game without fail. So far tonight 2 catches.....2!! Both underneath with no hope of yards after the catch. Brutal.

sorry, but I just don't buy it....People said the same thing under Gibbs....

New coach, same results...

[hail2theskins3]

He's got no time to pass. Poor pass blocking leads to short passes, if he has pressure in his face 2 seconds after the snap he's not gonna be able to throw it down the field.

[XSean21TaylorX]

the dinking and dunking is due to the steeler blitz, but they steelers have been all over our guys underneath all game.

[Destino]

I smell a philly fan.

[sameoldstory08]

We are what we are...a fraudulent 6 win team.
