Grossman isn't nearly as bad as he gets labeled as he's shown at times this year. What he is is incredibly inconsistent, and his lows are REALLY low. Yesterday was just God awful. That pass to Cooley should've never been made and the INTs were just... ugh. I think the problem is Kyle is too close to Grossman and he keeps calling plays like that's Tom Brady out there. Even down 17 and having little success, the ball should've been in the RBs hands more. Torrain's looking a little slow? Put Helu in earlier. Eight in the box? Run more screens to the backs. It just seems like they made things more difficult than it needed to be.

Not all that surprising though. We knew Philly was better than a 1-4 team and the Skins weren't as good as their 3-1 record. Just not sure this game gave us a clear look at what either team really is either.
