what an embarrassment. 1st half was good 14-10, but as the half went on you could see weeden was going to play like shit. he just kept holding the ball and wouldnt throw anything beyond 5 yards unless the WR was wide open. Mike Martz made several comments about how he is afraid to throw unless its a huge window. The only time we moved the ball on offense was during the final drive of the 1st half and those plays were all designed 1st read patterns. Trent Richardson has 2 TD's, but his lack of NFL ability is a serious problem for a 3rd overall pick. He has ZERO instincts and unless there is a parting of the red sea, he slows and stutter steps at the hole and usually gets drills for a short gain or loss. anyone who watched knows what i mean.
towards the end of the half i was hoping to see mccoy, but shurmur was never gonna put him in and with a halftime lead. Unfortunately for us, we got out coached by shanahan who adusted and shurmur who didnt. the Redskins adjusted to the over committing defensive gameplan that was designed to stop morris. thats all fine and good to stop him, but when the skins started with the roll outs it was time to adjust, and we didnt.
2nd half was total domination by the skins. Cousins looked amazing and mobile. could become a problem at some point. but in this game he made our defense look pathetic. we were so jacked to stop morris, that we let everyone else do whatever they wanted. And credit to skins coaches for a superior showing with their gameplan. But cousins could have folded as a rookie with no experience. but he was incredible...unlike weeden who was shit in the biggest game of his career.
I was pretty happy with his progression this year, but after today i am convinced he is not the answer. his big arm cant make up for his lack of confidence and poor awareness and decision making. biggest game for this team since 2007 and they fall flat on their faces. so long pat...
