Redskins coaches call stupid game plan...Skins loose.
Settatles QB never rushed even after key running back was out of the game.

Calling for I'm calling for Gibbs to re-retire and for Snyder to get some balls and get some good coaches and a good QB.

Sorry folks. You just can't beat a good QB by backing up and giving him all the time in the world to throw.

1. They were up against a better team - not a stupid coach
You are just dead wrong

5. OK watch the re-runs. The better teams rush QBs, and on offense
use some imagination.

3. Looked like brilliant coaching against a better team, to me.
Seattle was too fast. They were blowing through and around blocks on defense, and controlling the line on offense.

Also, Brunell needs to go to the same retirement home as Bledsoe. They are too slow in making decisions, too slow to release the ball, and too slow to react to pressure. That last sack of Brunell, he didn't even try to scramble. Want to see a good QB? Turn on the New England game and watch how quickly Brady makes up his mind and releases the ball. It's the difference between the defense being caught off guard and the defense making a break for the ball.

The Redskins had no business being as good as they were this season. They don't have the talent. It was all coaching.

4. I didn't have a dog in this fight and I saw Seattle as simply
a better team. Speed, speed and more speed.

6. Gibbs is over the hill. Top 'Hawks player goes out early and 'Skins lose.

7. My only problem with Gibbs is his loyalty to Brunell. The Skins are
a good team, with a good coach, and crummy QB.

Nearly everyone of Brunel's passes were high or over thrown.

He stinks.

9. Exactly. Brunell, Like Gibbs, Is A Fundy
And Gibbs believes that only fundies can QB his team. Ramsey is an good, young OB who Gibbs put on the shelf.

Fortunately, I don't mix sports and politics.

11. The key to being a sports fan who is politically aware
Is to treat all of the athletes, coaches and owners as if they are throughbred horses.

Do I care if Secretariat was anti-choice? Does it bother me that Seattle Slew is a Republican?

Of course not. I just want them to run fast and win.

8. how can you complain
about the job Gibbs did with that team. They've been in the playoffs once in thirteen years. He's a very good coach.

12. ESPECIALLY after their All-Pro, MVP running back goes down.
Yeah, that game plan confused me too.
