Another display of offensive ineptitude. Is it now time for Dan Snyder to end the pain?

The Washington Redskins found another way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The Carolina Panthers are now celebrating their first victory of the season.

Once again, one of the worst teams in the NFL looks like a Super Bowl contender against the Redskins.

The Washington Redskins are playing uninspired football. Players don't seem to have the "fire" it takes to consistently win.

So, who's to blame?

Jim Zorn is the man responsible for motivating these players. Sure, he's not the only problem, but change has to start somewhere.

Go ahead and fire Zorn. Let Sherman Lewis take over as the interim coach. Cut the losses for 2009. There will be no playoffs this year, no Super Bowl dreams. The 2009 Redskins are a bad team.

Mike Shanahan needs to be hired as head coach, a real GM needs to be hired, and a real franchise quarterback needs to be found (hopefully Sam Bradford or Colt McCoy).

Come on, Snyder, please stop the bleeding.
