SkinsHokieFan Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 It is very obvious how this game was lost. O was just terrible and the lack of adjustments were killer. Getting shut down by old man Kiffen was terrible. Special teams- I don't need to discuss this anymore Defense- Mostly looked good because they only had to be on the field for like 43 plays or so, thanks to the special teams blunders. Would they have made clutch plays? Not sure, as evidenced by the TD Romo sits to pee threw, where holding the Cowboys to a FG in that situation was critical to the game Penalties left and right. Just terrible. Really I am dissapointed how terrible the O did vs their D. Street guys dominated our O tonight The question has to be asked now- is this staff on the hot seat 4 years in, and I know there have been outside issues (CBA and cap penalty) out of control of the FO, but this team is not where it should be in the 4th year of a program. The completely re-built Colts are in year 2 of Pagano, and are looking like they just re-loaded from the Manning era Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 **** yes. Discipline is non-exisent with the stupid ****ing penalties at the worst possible times. ST is...ST...is..**** it. Defense still blows. Offensive playcalling is trash. Basically, the same as 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grego Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Agreed. 2 weeks to prepare for this crap defense, and this is what we get? How many bootlegs did we call, when the pocket was constantly collapsing? Why people defend Kyle is beyond me. He has zero feel for adjustments.

I still like this staff for the most part, but tonight was tough. Very tough. Year 4 in and every year this staff has been at least 3 games below .500 at one point or another. This is just going to work when you see what other staffs do very quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkFan8 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Two weeks to prepare and you come out with 11 penalties, 2 turnovers, absolutely abysmal time management, and general confusion in every ****ing phase of the game? I'm sorry. I know the salary cap penalty really hurt us and RG3 is still trying to get right, but the way the team is playing right now is a huge indictment of the coaching staff.

Year 4 in and every year this staff has been at least 3 games below .500 at one point or another. This is just going to work when you see what other staffs do very quickly Clock management from a HoF headed, 2 time SB winning HC is beyond pop warner. Discipline is disgraceful. On AND off the field. (Penalty's/ # of guys caught for PED infractions.). Over 400 yards of offense, and a whopping 16 points to show for it. And staring a 1-6 record in the face that could well of been 0-7 if Pryor had been healthy. And that's not even scratching the surface of the Shanahan discussion alone. Hail.

skinsforlife101 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 What concerns me the most is how undisciplined the team has played all season. I did not hear the final total in Penalties but I thought Al Michaels said the skins had 12 penalties which is horrible coming off a bye week. The clock management at the end of the first half was very poor. Just a sad coaching effort tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I'd clean house in the off-season. Four years of Shanahan and we'll end up with sub .500 seasons in three of them. Sorry it doesn't take five years to rebuild in today's NFL. We have a talent issue but we also have a coaching issue. Look at the clock management at the end of the 1st half, or all the penalties,or many players' failure to develop, etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I understand the cap penalty and all that but Lord....the lack of football IQ by the players is seriously ridiculous. WTF do the coaches do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I am not sure if I feel comfortable giving Shanny alot of money in this offseason to get his type of players. Because if he fails, the next coach is stuck with his players and limited funds to get his players. This scheme is not easily repeatable and the next coach who comes in will move away from zone stretch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain James Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Please, please, please, make a change!! I believe the NFL is at least a little fixed, but the Skins as a team are atrocious. It's hard for me to believe that penalties can be so lopsided....but still overall all 3 aspects of this team bloowwww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Excuses Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Shanahan should be canned simply for this 3-4 disaster. Took a decent NFL 4-3 defense, ripped it apart, spent money and draft picks to build a 3-4 and this is the **** that we get. It's a complete disaster.

Springfield Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I think with Special Teams it definitely should be. With the rest of the staff I wouldn't say yes quite yet. They drive the ball down the field several times and if they turned those field goals into touchdowns we wouldn't be having this discussion. That said, some of the offensive play calls had me baffled. Clock management at the end of the first half was poor. The defense actually played pretty well, really only giving up 1 touchdown. Two were due to special teams and one because of the Griffin fumble. I wouldn't put them on the hot seat other thand ST yet. I would like some better finish though, definitely.

blueskin Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 FIRE THEM ALL!!!! I'm raising the banner. The Mike Shanahan Experience is a dud. He's far worse than Joe Gibbs 2.0 (we at least saw the playoffs a couple times), he's worse than Jim Zorn. He's seriously in Spurrier/Petitbone/McPeek territory. I wish we could really find a young innovative coach. I'd even be for bringing Gibbs back for a third round over this. If he'd stayed, I strongly believe we'd be contenders today. Hey Danny? I think you need to go all Bad-Danny on him, and fire him. I don't want this current crew making the decisions for free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan2k Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Giving him this offseason with a full draft and full salary cap suggests that you are going to keep him for another 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicCitySkin Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Yep, the only winning season was a result of RG3 balling out of his mind in a seven game stretch that ended up putting a huge damper on his development as a QB. Haslett gets a pass for not fielding the worst unit for once, but he still needs to be gone after this season. Mike Shanahan definitely has to be on the hot seat. I can count on one hand the positive contributions he has made in his time here: RG3 Trade, AlMo, Garcon, Kerrigan, Cofield. I think the game has passed him by. We've seen a progressively worse defense each year, a progressively worse special teams, lack of discipline, lack of fundamentals, horrible game-planning, horrible adjustments, bad personnel decisions, bad financial decisions, and a seemingly complete reluctance to admit when he's made mistakes(Jim Haslett.)

nuposse87 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 The problem is if you fire Shanny...whose the interim? His idiot son with his questionable playcalling? Haslett (HAH!)? Snyder just needs to let the team finish it out. Unless they make the playoffs (paloffs? You kiddin me!), I see no reason to keep any of them around. Don't need them to poison RG III's career anymore. Or make questionable draft picks (Jenkins, Lebrieus [w/e that pos's name is], Rambo, Chris T. etc..) Can't wait to hear the company men excuses though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsHokieFan Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Here is part of it. This is a very good job to come into for a new coach. You have a franchise QB who will be on the upswing still. You have talent on the D that could quickly switch to a 4-3 if you chose to go that route. You will have cash in the offseason to spend money. Danny has a big decision ahead of him. This right now doesn't look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
