They did it again and again it didn't make sense. Why would you pass to a guy well before the marker on 3rd and long?! They could be forgiven if it was a one off but they did it time and time again, like robots who weren't programmed to do anything else. Shame really because this Redskins team has a lot of potential.

Hate to break it to you but the Eagles run the west coast offence.
