Week 2 Game Thread: Showdown at the Frozen Tundra

[1niksder]

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to leave RG3 in this game. It's over and he needs to come out.

I'm so sick of the Shanahans. Sooooo overrated.

He NEEDS the work

The game is lost. If you expect Bob to improve, he needs to stay in. It would make no sense to pull him now.

[Redskin in Canada]

Unless the refs are on the Mara payroll... that is not a fumble.

Then it IS a fumble

[Snout]

I cut the offense some slack because of the decision to play a rusty and limited RG, but our defen-sieve start is really depressing.

..... WTF...... Please explain to us how this makes ANY SENSE WHATSOEVER?

No sense whatsoever? Are you impressed by our defense? We gave up 33 points in week 1 (after the Eagles let up) and 38 more so far in this game. Rogers is having a career game. GB has 100 yards rushing for the first time in 45 games. Again, are you impressed by our defense? Do I really need to spell it out for you?

It should not have taken anywhere near that long to review... probably had to wait for instructions from NY.

[Burgundy&Wha?]

No change to the game clock? If he was down, the clock should have stopped. Right?

He NEEDS the work

Yes, but he doesn't need the type of work he's going to receive, down 31 points, and no concern for a run game, with the pack coming after him on every down.

They didn't get any instructions from NY about that.

RG III turned the wrong way and he acknowledged it.

Work is work. He stays in.

There's this thing in football, it might be a new sport for you so I'll say it slowly.

It's called time of possession. The redskins offense cannot convert on third down and tire their defense out. But in your wisdom have forgiven the offense for that small mistake. But hold it against the defense. That does not make any sense, to absolve the offense of responsibility. LMAO

Mara just keeps on coming.

You're entitled to your opinion .. which is obviously shared by the two on the sideline who ran the tires off the kid last year, and drove him on the bare rims..

[Redskin in Canada]

Come on guys!!!!

It is just the second game of our PRE-season. It just happens to be in the regular season, that's all.

Patience. We'll get back on our feet ... Much later in the REGULAR season

He's playing like trash, more time off is the last thing he needs if they're not going to bench him altogether.

Wouldn't it just be easier to say this entire franchise just sucks?

[Burgundy&Wha?]

Touchdown for Jordan Reed. Good for him. We may have our Fred Davis replacement. Davis has all but vanished.

[44diesel]

Jordan Reed with his first TD! Hail!

Yeah, our defense sure was tired in that impressive first quarter. Of this game and the last game.

These are not games when our defense tires out in the fourth quarter. If we tire out in the first quarter . . . yeah WTF do I know?

Actually, he's playing pretty damned well from the pocket right now... sharp, accurate passes with mustard... this may be just what he needed.

nah, we got Mara'ed. It will take a season or two to overcome being Mara'ed.

[Burgundy&Wha?]

ND Suh is going to eat us up next week.

You must not know much because the Eagles ran 53 plays in the 1st half last week. That's 2/3 of an entire game in one half. So yes, the inability to sustain a drive by the offense is horribly detrimental to the defense.

Nah, Green Bay is playing soft prevent D, just as the Eagles did. Ponder can look like an NFL QB under the same circumstances
