The problem isn't Jon Gruden, nor the offense. The problem the last 3 games has been our defense. Everything has gone wrong.
#1 we all the sudden can't tackle
#2 DT's have been out, and that's killed our run stop
#3 3rd down, we're gettin no pass rush on 3rd down and it's killing us....watch todays game over again and look at the 3rd downs...if we get even 1/2 the stops on 3rd down, this game could've very well been a 17point tampa bay win.
against carolina it was ronde barber, one of the historically best tackling CB's just played like dog shit.
last week against atlanta i knew we had no chance of winning when brian griese was starting. he doesn't know how to get us in the endzone, and often allows the other team in the endzone.
this week it was Phillip Buchanon getting torched
don't blame jon gruden, blame the defense
if washington and minnesota both lose today we're in same boat we entered today as.
at worst, we need atleast Philly or Atlanta, 1 of them to lose...if they both win, then you might as well forget about it.
We need a Washington win this week over Philly, then a Philly win over Dallas next week.
That'd put us in the 6th spot if we can win next week.
We also need Chicago to go 1-1 or worse.
