TERREL SUGGS IS A BEAST.

So for those 74% of you who wanted to bench Campbell in the second half. How do you feel now?

Posted by: dbunit04 | October 4, 2009 3:18 PM |

Maybe you should watch the whole game before trying to chastise..idiot.

Rooting for Campbell is like drinking Kool Aide with no sugar!

Wouldn't it be smarter after a bomb to not go right back to a bomb? Maybe send a guy deep to open up a shorter pass? If you're the DBs aren't you going to be thinking "I'm not going to get burned again"?

no surprise that JC was trying to FORCE the ball to moss....when when when when when will these guys learn...

@bmacattack, take that ratbird crap back to dundalk.

Horrible spot!

Need defense here

fan, how about send a guy deep, clear out the middle, and throw to ARE...no...nevermind...

time for the defense to step it up in the 4th for once

@bmacattack, how do you like your randy moss?

This is where a good defense would step up and make a stop.

thank god their kicker sucks our we'd be tied right now.

Time for the defense to step up again. Another turnover would be great.

If you are a cable viewer, you gotta love RedZone TV.

@snydercash4clunkers

your posting name is as creative as a tranny on xmas. the ravens are a real team. the skins are not. so shutup.

Bmacattack is a clown......he hates on peeps for being analytically critical and the blows the ravens........f bmacattack

@bmacattack, how do you like your randy moss?

about just as much as dhall does in preseason games.
^_^

in retrospect, maybe we should have gone for 2 on the moss TD? 6 point lead and 5 point lead are the same thing, right?

is there any free agent o-line out there

is there any free agent o-line out there

seriously....if a qb is responsible for 3 turnovers, that's more than enough to be benched. It worked that way back in the day for Sonny J and Billy K, or Doug W and Jay S (cough). Campbell is at best an average qb. He needs to sit, even if it's just for a game. It would send a message from the coach. But our coach, for some reason, isn't seeing what a lot of us fans are seeing.

beantown - wasn't ARE was catching the ball pretty well in that area last week? I can't remember... maybe it was just a beautiful dream.

would bringing in holmgren make more sense?....wouldnt there be more consistency in the offensive scheme?....im not familiar w/ shanny style
im not advocating holmgren, just curious

terrible d in the 4th again

6 point lead and 5 point lead are the same thing, right?

Posted by: kman2 | October 4, 2009 3:31 PM

No. An opponent's TD ties the game rather than gives them the outright lead. Anything can happen on extra point as we saw.

Looks like TB is about to take the lead.

landry makes a play, wow!

looks like JoeY T was right about the D being THE problem with the team. Why do some get a pass on criticism? Andre Carter? Blache? Rocky?

LL needs to stop celebrating after making one play when he consistently dives at players instead of using both hands to tackle.

fan, he's got ZERO catches, ZERO, same with DT, same with MK, its the same thing WEEK after WEEk, throw to COoley, throw to Moss, then shrug and wonder why this offense sucks...

Tampa's going to go for it on 4th, so I hope the defense is ready.

TB has two timeouts. WAS needs three-four firstdowns to end the game. Can they do it? My answer is probably not.

landry makes a play, wow!

Posted by: snydercash4clunkers

and acts like an as* clown celebrating a tackle. what an ingrate.

Gollllllllllllllllllllllllll de Sevilla!!!!

Zorn and Campbell can take a BIG step forward.

Will Zorn play to win?

Will Campbell make plays?

We'll see what JC is made of on the next drive if Tampa scores here. This game will make or break him..

wow, got lucky with just a field goal there guys. wouldn't it suck to overly analyze to death one of the worst teams in football? if we loose to the bucs, THE worst team in football? food for thought monkeys. have a good week wasting your life. go skins.

@1965skinsfan, yeah thats pretty much his thing. that and not hitting anybody

tryon seems to have made some plays today....

would bringing in holmgren make more sense?....

Posted by: jj44skins | October 4, 2009 3:33 PM

Bringing in anyone at this point in the season won't make much sense unless the missing ingredient is pep talks. It just takes a while to install a new system and a new culture and a new system and culture isn't going to fix the underlying personnel problems on this team.

looks like JoeY T was right about the D being THE problem with the team. Why do some get a pass on criticism? Andre Carter? Blache? Rocky?

Posted by: 1965skinsfan | October 4, 2009 3:34 PM

They have kept the Skins in the game. Offense has turned the ball over 4x and TB only has 13 points. What more are they supposed to do?

fan, he's got ZERO catches, ZERO, same with DT, same with MK, its the same thing WEEK after WEEk, throw to COoley, throw to Moss, then shrug and wonder why this offense sucks...

Posted by: BeantownGreg1

that's on JC.

Now comes the most painful final minutes of the game. WAS needs four first downs to win and has to make TB burn their two timeouts.

I'm surprised they kicked the FG. That was a fairly conservative play call.

bmacattack, you spell like your from dundalk. its "lose" not "loose" i guess spelling is not a requirement down at the dundalk wendys.

After that 3rd INT, I was hoping Marvcus Patton would get in Campbell's face.

fan, he's got ZERO catches, ZERO, same with DT, same with MK, its the same thing WEEK after WEEk, throw to COoley, throw to Moss, then shrug and wonder why this offense sucks...

Bantown have you have you considered it bc they actually hav ability and mk and dt suck?

That was Portis' best run of the season!

First down #1 is done.

how about that run block by Cooley...just sayin

talent evaluator....i agree w/ you, just don't trust snyder...he's the most impatient man ever
a normal team would hire gm and wait til next yr to decide
but i figure if zorn can't get momentum by the bye week, he could be out...matter of fact i feel snyder already decided its just matter of time

Why is TB not calling timeouts here?

Hey I just remembered: every time Portis runs 20 times they win... or some stupid stat like that. So I guess they win today.

learned,

yes, only 13 so far and yet the bucs missed two fg's. the bucs controlled the ball all first half and pulled a skins in settling for fg's but lucky for us, missed two. This is against the Buc's mind you.

Punt.

That was Portis' worst run of the season (except the one against the Lions)

One yard short. But they did bring it to the 2:00 warning. Can the defense stop them?

what the hell are we doing in empty backfield spread formation when we're trying to milk the clock. Zorn is a dumba**!

Zorn may go for it on 4th down.

Looks like it all comes down to the defense. But why did TB not use any of its timeouts?

Another nailbiter!!!!!!

4th and 1. Our punter is hurt. It's now up to the defense.

play calling for the 20th game in a row, absolutely positively SUCKS.....

Thats Classic, Portis on 3rd and 5, good grief Charlie Brown, I mean Jim Zore....

if zorn can't get momentum by the bye week, he could be out...matter of fact i feel snyder already decided its just matter of time

Posted by: jj44skins | October 4, 2009 3:40 PM

I'm thinking that Holmgren or Shanahan will be hired as a "consultant" or "Coach in Waiting." They'll watch film, chew out Zorn et al. and tell Snyder what's up.

16-13..against the Bucs. Wow..another down to the wire game against horrible teams. Can't wait to see what they do against decent teams. Nothing has changed and nothing is changing.

i dont like this feeling at all.

if we go for it on 4th, and run left, then I'm gonna puke....

Thats Classic, Portis on 3rd and 5, good grief Charlie Brown, I mean Jim Zore....

holmgren would be better for that right, cause he already coached zorn, but i don't like him as gm

Whew!!

Pulled one outta there arse...

I'll take that

2 minute drill by a rookie QB in his first NFL game. I hope the defense is up to it.

Wow! We really are better than the Bucs! Woo-hoo!

This is a miracle!

ugly win against a below average team.

Gotta give the Skins a little credit. They made some plays when they had to in the 2nd half

No way this team is good, but they needed this win.

OK the 1st four games represented the *real* preseason.

The actual season starts next week!

This is a fortunate win against a BAD football team. It only prolongs the inevitable.

Zorn should take all the credit for this "win". He deserves it...

Defense wins championships... Or in this case, one game against the lowly Bucs.

But a win is a win.

2-2

Typical Redskin win but I'll take it. A win is a win--even if it is ugly.

Not a good effort all the way around. They need to continue to work at starting fast.

Another Ugly Win, Yea, may 2 -14

We want Carolina! We want Carolina! meh....

All's good. We are 2-2.

WOW! The Skins are in a roll. Where can I buy Super Bowl tickets to cheer for JC and the Skins?

te, that might be a stretch....I mean, I'd say we're pretty even with them....

I'll take the win, but only if it means WHOLESALE changes, landry out, rogers out, campbell out, Meidt/Smith calling plays, forced passes to Moss/Cooley out...

Now that you've finished watching the Skins got away with another lousy win, you have to seriously watch Real Madrid with a $175 million going to two men (Ronaldo and Kaka) take on Sevilla.
If you don't know soccer or futbol, this is the game to watch. Not that MLS crap!

Scrappy D wins it. God, JC is a really bad qb. It makes me sad for our future.

Apparently they still DO have some pride left.

Game balls to Suisham, Moss, Portis, Cooley, Doughty and of course, Fletcher. Oh and that blond cheerleader in one of the honey shots.

They need to continue to work at starting fast.

Posted by: TWISI

they don't do anything fast. Slowest NFL team I've seen.

So they've gone 2-2 in the first block. If they can go 2-2 in the next block, then 3-1 in the third block, and 3-1 in the final block, that's.... 10-6

Ahhh, who am I kidding. Forget it.

what another God awful ugly game......its so disgusting on a weekly basis, we just had to come from behind to beat one of the 2 worst teams in the league with a first time starter......it's pitiful how far the Redskins have fallen.....

I'm happy we won but I have to ask: Are we the only team through 4 games to not reach 20 points in any game yet?

Now, can you bench your qb after he has a lousy game but still leads the team to a win?

Okay, so how many more Division II schools remain on the schedule?

They play the NOVA club team in Week #7 or 8?

Wow.

A win is an win. I'll savor it for a bit. But Campbell needs more accuracy.

I'm happy with a win, but this team is absolutely NOT entertaining to watch.

BENCH HIM!!!! Regardless of the victory.

only if it means WHOLESALE changes, landry out, rogers out, campbell out, Meidt/Smith calling plays, forced passes to Moss/Cooley out...

Posted by: BeantownGreg1 | October 4, 2009 3:49 PM

Campbell does 25 pushups on the sideline after each turnover; Kelly, Thomas promise to get open; Fred Taylor perfects his blocking skills...

Questions on the negative side...:

Can Kelly EVER get open?

Who taught Fred davis how to block?

Who taught Haynesworth to "play the piano?"

Why wasn't Tryon sent again after his sack?

Why is no attempt made--on O or D-- to put pressure on the other team, to cause them to think or hurry up, or misdirect?

just looked at the schedule...this was the last of new qb/rookie coach combo of the year. enjoy it while you can. i predicted 3-13...i have no clue where the 3rd win is going to come from.

Not a pretty win but still a win. At least there is hope. Defense played better but offesne is still mostly disfunctional, they make a few plays but no consistency. It was good to see some of the new players contribute, Tyron had a sack and Jarman forced the fumble

I'd like to know if Kelly, Thomas and Davis are not getting open or is it Campbell missing them?

Or both? Or what?

Not for nothing did this organization try to replace JC in the offseason. He's not terrible but man he has mediocre written all over him.

Thats Classic, Portis on 3rd and 5, good grief Charlie Brown, I mean Jim Zore....

Sure I would have thrown it. there was more than 2 minutes left and they needed a first down. In hind sight you can say well the defense held. but the object is to not give them a chance to drive and win. but we got the fumble, I just feel Lucky ~

Yeah these wins have been really unsatisfying... last year when we won 4 in a row beating the Cowboys, Eagles... THAT was really satisfying. But I'm happy we won anyway.

Chicago has scored 41 on the Lions... and we couldn't score more than 20 on them... geez..

I'm happy with a win, but this team is absolutely NOT entertaining to watch.

Posted by: Alan4 | October 4, 2009 3:54 PM

What? A come-from-behind victory in doubt 'till the last minute and you're not entertained? What gets you off? 42-0 blowout?

I'd agree that they weren't impressive today, but they were certainly entertaining.

Now, can you bench your qb after he has a lousy game but still leads the team to a win?

Posted by: fan-o-matic | October 4, 2009 3:54 PM |

Are you serious?
The best Skin player was Tampa Bay's field goal kicker along with the wind. He makes those two FG and this team is 1-3. JC makes one good throw and you are ready saying he led this team to a win? Give us a break.

2-2 better than 1-3. We will take it.

Even though JC didnt have a terrible 1st half, But had a great 2nd half and those of you that argued last week he cant EVER lead a team from behind. 10-0 in 1st half. Skins win 16-13 off of JC passing touchdowns.

But of course that was last weeks negativity, we are waiting for this weeks negativity.

beep beep

gcoles32- He also gave back all the momentum we had with that terrible throw. We're lucky the D got a stop or Tampa would've probably won 17-16.

Yes, I'm serious. That's why I posted it. You misunderstand me if you think I'm saying he deserves to play. But when was the last time you heard about a qb being benched after a win?

Furthermore, whether you like it or not, he did lead the team to a win by virtue of two TD passes. A pretty win? No. An awful performance? Yes. But unless you can find someone else on the Skins who led this team to a win, it was JC, as bizarre as that sounds.
