their last chance came down to colt against the colts and jason, that was a mismatch. >> yeah, it really was, chris. colt mccoy played his best game of the nfl career. the only problem is he doesn't play defense. the redskins' secondary torn apart today by andrew luck. different quarterback for head coach jay gruden, but the same result for the skins. robert griffin iii, the backup in this game, colt mccoy got the start. pick it up in the third quarter. colts up 21-10. mccoy making a play here for the offense. rolling out, making a few guys miss. stays on his feet and he finds his tight end, logan paulson, his first touchdown of the r back in this game, down by just four points. later in the quarter, colts up, 28-17. skins going for it on fourth and inches. mccoy gets sacked by erik walden. he loses the ball and jackson grabs it. that's a 35-yard return. mccoy was sacked six times in the ball game. the colts, they beat the redskins, 49-27. the skins have now dropped four in a row. >> we got out of the gate way too slow as an offensive unit. looked like we were sleepwalking out of the hud

and an okay game for colt, just not enough to beat the colts. >> i'll take a lot of the blame. i got to be better in the pocket. there are things that i can do better especially early in the game, but it's a team sport, and i think we all have a lot to clean up. we have to win. we didn't get that done today. >> there are some things i wish we would have done differently, play callers and execution-wise. i feel like he competed and i feel like he was frustrated. hour first half was not good at any level. but he competed, and he gave us a chance. >> we force the fumble on the colts first possession, and picked up andrew luck on the second possession and they can only manage three points. it was all down hill. the d-backs were nowhere to be found. they find the touchdown of the first half, and the tackling was terrible. check this connection in the third. two missed tackles, no one can catch them, that's a 71-yard touchdown. luck finished with five touchdown passes. >> one of the basic three-deep call, and we. and then a number two call and we don't have a safety in the half. play

the colts simply took advantage of all of that. colts receiver reggie wayne even said after wards that the team sent multiple receivers because they were well aware of their constant miscues. four touchdowns for over hurt yards. things were so frustratingly bad, when asked to explain what broke down on the field, some guys were at a loss for words. >> i don't know. i don't think i'm equipped to answer that question right now because i'm still frustrated with yesterday's loss. >> i can understand some of the young guys getting beat man to man or giving up a pressure to a good pass rush on 3rd and 14 or a good te stunt or whatever but some of the blown assignments are the most frustrating so far. >> that's a problem. like coach said , these weren't greatly designed plays, happening over and over, they weren't learning or adjusting. >> anybody can get beat on a play. a guy is 5 yards ahead, these are guys who are wide open. nobody even near them. >> maur -- meriweather said these were schemes they learned game one. and they couldn't e

the redskins defense could do nothing to stop the indianapolis colts.ndrew luck had a season low 23 passes. he attacked the secondary with big play after big play. four touchdowns for over 30 yards. two of them over 70 yards. guys are wide open down the field again and again, leaving some to wonder whether it was missed assignments or lack of communication that was to blame. >> i think it was guys that had their eyes on the wrong place. that's all it takes for a big play to happen in the secondary. >> every game you play you're going to have some missed assignments. when you lose, they become glaring. the results of our missed assignments have been huge plays. >> the redskins' chance to get back to .500 is gone. their number ranked 23rd while the defense has given up the 26th most points in the nfl and they're three wins over their last 20 games. worst 20-game stretch for this franchise since 1964. >>> wife of former ravens runningback speaks out for the first time since her husband was reinstated from the nfl. rice sat down with matt lauer in her home
