This is the maddest I think I've ever see Gruden.

Jay Gruden is screaming, I mean, SCREAMING, at the Redskins. I've never heard anything from a coach like that.

Bottom line: Coach believes the players did not take seriously the Cardinals or the jeopardy a loss would be to their playoff hopes. And … whose fault would that be?
Gruden should be mad at players for this mess. And players should be mad at coaches for this mess. The whole village burned down today.

No one is catching the Cowboys, but the Redskins could have closed the gap with the Giants, who lost to the Steelers, and kept a half-game lead over the Buccaneers who won today and took our spot as playoff sixth-seed. We handed the Cardinals the tie-breaker advantage over us.

Don’t slash your wrists just yet. The season is not over.
Loss to AZ not fatal, but Redskins need to go 4 of 4 to make playoffs. #HTTR

When we lost to the Cardinals, we lost all margin for error.
No pressure, though.
