Another week, another display of total dysfunction on the part of the Redskins. But it's no longer surprising; it has become expected.

After being completely inept in the first half, the offense showed some signs of life against the Falcons in the second half. But it was too little, too late. By then, the defense was giving up yardage in bunches.

The offensive line was a Swiss cheese sieve, and it is shocking that Jason Campbell made it out of the game alive. Campbell spent most of the afternoon staring up at the sky, taking hit after hit.

Tackling was atrocious for the Redskins defense. It was almost comical to watch plays such as LaRon Landry diving at the feet of Michael Turner, only to watch him easily jump over him for a big gain.

Such miscues as Landry's poor tackling demonstrate the biggest problem in general for the Redskins: lack of fundamentals.

Instead of focusing on their individual techniques for performing their jobs, Redskins players seem to be hoping for a quick end to the season. They have given up, quit trying, and act like they no longer have anything to play for.

And now, that's the truth. They no longer have anything to play for, because the playoffs are out of reach.

So, as a Redskins fan, I sincerely hope this team loses the remainder of their games.

Why? It would do more harm than good to have this team finish 4-12 (which is about the best we could hope for), as opposed to 2-14. The Redskins need the highest first round draft pick possible next year.

In particular, I believe the Redskins' first pick in 2010 should be Notre Dame's Jimmy Clausen. More than likely, the Redskins will be too late to pick him, but it's possible he'll still be available.

And, obviously, after the first pick, the Redskins need to pick as many offensive linemen as possible.

For the sake of rebuilding the Redskins into a contender again, here's to hoping that the 2009 train wreck continues.
