Redskins and Gibbs find another way to lose. "Prevent defense"

[Sara Beverley]

The skins had been rushing the Dallas QB all game, holding him good. In the last minute of the game they decide to go into the suicide "prevent defense" and allowed Teseverde all the time he needed to pass for a touchdown. It proves once agian that "prevent defense" is highly overrated and results in more loses than wins. Give any QB enough time to pass and he will usually throw a big one! I rushed QB simply can't be accurate most of the time. This was another example of overcoaching. My husband thinks I'm right about it too. It makes me sick!!! 30 seconds to go but I don't think they will be able to pull it out. Win or lose I still say "prevent defense" sucks!

1. Anyone who ever played Madden Football knows ...

that John always said: "The only thing the prevent defense does is prevent you from winning."

However, I'd say the two interceptions, the fumble, and the missed field goal are to blame. :evilgrin:
