Undisciplined

Recommended Posts

This team is horribly undisciplined, committing 9 penalties in the first half.

Case in point, the Olsen penalty on the first drive forcing us to settle for a field goal.

This is a disturbing aspect of the new regime; repeatedly losing big yards on both offense and defense due to penalties. Win or lose today, without fixing this we are not going to get many victories this year.

discipline always comes down to the head coach.

Which people don't seem to realize.

John Fox may have fallen to the new age of play, but this team was very well disciplined under him.

I'm not expecting much from Rivera this year, but this undisciplined, sloppy, and uncorrected mess that we're seeing week-in-week-out is getting tiring, and very telling of this team.

Teams are what their coaches are.

We're a very talented, but undisciplined mess.

The point they were making was the 2 penalties on the FG were bogus.

There may have been a couple of bogus calls, as there is in any game.

The point remains, when you have 13 or 14 penalties a game, more often than not it will prevent you from winning.

Maybe we only deserved 8 or 9 penalties but that is still far too many for a game.

My biggest complaint with the refs was the blind eye they seemed to turn towards the 'Skins. Yes, we committed the majority of penalties they caused but it felt like they missed some really easy calls that should have gone against Washington.

    • You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.  
    • Put Huey P Newton on the helmet. With his AK. 
    • We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
