Skins pack it in

I didn't even bother to post anything on last week's Giant debacle.

Hoped to redeem ourselves yesterday against Dallas but it was another lackluster performance. It's tough because we had been playing so well for several weeks and then we just reverted to how we played at the beginning of the year. Offense is anemic and can't muster anything. Here are some general thoughts:

1. O line was terrible. No protection for JC and no running lanes.

2. Coaching seems to have packed it in. JZ has lost the team and there isn't any way around it.

3. Team has folded. Can't entirely blame them for all of the distractions they have had to put with this year. They know there will be major changes in the offseason and it's hard to play under those conditions.

4. JC looks beaten. The guy has taken a physical and emotional pounding this year. Feel bad for the guy. Will be interesting to see what happens to him in the offseason. He is restricted so it will be interesting to see what kind of interest he garners from other teams in the off season.

5. Defense was okay but safeties were playing way off the ball.

6. Coaching again. Seems like the Cowboys knew what we were going to do and when they didn't, they audibled into a more successful play easily. We didn't disguise much.

7. Looking forward to ending this season and getting started with changes for next season. Hopefully with Bruce Allen we have a guy with a plan and an opportunity to implement the plan.

"Jason Candle in the Wind"

Goodbye Jason Campbell
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold the ball
And get sacked until you crawled

Snyder crawled out of the woodwork
And he whispered into your brain
He set you on the treadmill
And he made you change your game

(chorus)

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing where to run to
When the rush came in
And I would have liked for you to win
But you were just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your contract ever did...

Leadership was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Snyder wanted a superstar
And pain was the price you paid

Even when they wanted Cutler
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Jason had a good attitude

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing where to run to
When the rush came in
And I would have liked for you to win
But you were just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your contract ever did...

Skins should rest their starters this week against the Chargers.

Zorn was such a loser at the press conference last night.

Anyway Jerry Gray becomes Defensive Coordinator under Shanny?

I think we should trade Fred Davis before his status drops any further because of dropped balls.

I don't think that FD or Malcolm Kelly are the brightest bulbs. I think Devin Thomas should have been the only one picked of the three. Those two picks should have been two huge MFers to play O-Line.

Song is pretty dumb.

I think Gray is one of the few people that may be retained by the new coach.

Davis is solid. He has had a number of productive games. Kelly has not shown much of anything. Thomas looks like he could be solid as well.

Will be interesting to see what we do in the draft/offseason.

Pretty harsh JKSD. Just trying to use my creativity. You know accountants with integrity never get to use their creativity.

Appreciate the effort but still pretty dumb.

You must have a problem with Elton John, cause all of my words are awesome.

No report about ARAKPO? Just another snub of London (England) Fletcher.
