POSTGAME Skins v. Buzzards thread

Post by Redskin in Canada »

Stupid penalties and stupid mistakes almost cost us the game but this team BELIEVES.

WHATEVER I and anybody else may have said when Kirk Cousins was drafted must EAT CROW now. To come out cold and win the game .... WOW


My hat is off to you, Kirk.

And the rest of our guys, London and Lorenzo: GUTSY!!!

I really did not like Doughty and Hall today. They are liabilities.
Daniel Snyder has defined incompetence, failure and greed to true Washington Redskins fans for over a decade and a half. Stay away from football operations !!!

If RG3 can make it to the next game, we're running the table

Dhall is not a liability. He played on a bum ankle after being in a walking boot ALL WEEK. He is our best corner and has been all season. Dudes got guts.

RG3 returning to the sidelines was huge motivation for the team in OT. Fight for RG3!!!!

Scared RG3 is done for the year, but let's hope I am wrong.
As for DHall, thanks for stoping on the 2nd TD, guy is usueless in coverage, unless it's jumping a 5 yard hitch.
Hard fought win
Captain Kirk looks good
RGIII and the terrible D

I'm not a big Hall fan, but he was on crutches all week and then played. I'll take that. Without Griffin back there, if he doesn't play we lose. Period. I'll take what he gave us today.

Keep hoping. I don't know if I can sleep tonight until we know more about RGIII's knee.

On both of those TD passes, the safety should have been over to help. Simple as that. I'm not faulting DHall much on those. With Brandon Merriweather in the game, those passes might well have been incomplete.

Also, the Late Hit Call against DHall was wrong.

Anybody want to tell us all again how Shanahan was such an idiot for spending a 3rd round draft pick on Kirk Cousins?

Didn't get a close look at the second one, but you're completely on the first. That was on Williams.

I'm hoping its just an MCL sprain and RGIII is back in two weeks. We can win without him next week in CLE.

My thoughts can be summed up pretty quickly...I'm elated with the victory and I hope RGIII doesn't have to miss any games as that will certainly mean an end to the Skins play-off run...but I gotta ask, what the he11 was going on with the offensive play calling? Between the 1st qtr and the final drive that forced OT, the offense basically did nothing. It seemed like every play was nothing but trickery stuff and there was only one downfield pass attempt the entire game. Why did they go away from the play calling they were using in the 1st qtr as the Ravens D couldn't seem to figure out a way to stop them. The Skins O was pretty much doing whatever they wanted....they scored 2 TDs, then they stopped doing what was successful and started the trickery stuff, which wasn't working. Puzzling.

Again, great victory, but the injury to RGIII could cost us the play-offs...

The Ravens have a really good D that makes a lot of adjustments.

Griffin post game:

"Shouldn't be ACL. I know what that feels like," he said. "I'll be all right."

Yeah, his leg wasn't planted when he was hit. That's a good sign. I think Kirk can carry us over the Browns and Eagles, if RGIII can take three weeks off his feet, maybe he can be ready by the 'Pukes (provided it's just a sprain)

How much of the reputation of the Ravens D is still based on the 2000 team? I think a lot of it is. This D is nothing compared to the 2000 D, and their 2 best players didn't even play...still, it's not a bad D, but I wouldn't say it's really good...

Yeah I'm hoping you're right in the fact that his leg was in the air and it looked a lot worse than it actually is.

PAPDOG...funsho is right the Browns have a very stout defense and Weeden is very accurate so if we don't get pressure on him then he has the ability to pick us apart. Haz is gonna have to come up with a solid game plan to rattle and mess with the rookie's head.

But they still play football. They made adjustments. RGIII looked confused when he looked downfield and their end was throwing Polumbus around like a doll. That has nothing to do with their D in 2000, but how they played today. They are still tough.

Congrats on a well deserved win. My team crapped the bed but at least the Ratbirds lost so it eases the pain of us losing. Gutsy win and wins like this go a long way.

Make Griffin take the time off. He is too good to risk
