1. Ade Jimoh should have been cut prior to this game. Why oh why is he still weaing burgundy and gold?!?!!?

2. It was very nice seeing Springs and Taylor step up to the plate and get their first INTs.

3. The offense looks horrible. Actually, it's embarassing.

4. The kickoff coverage units stinks. The Broncos were getting too many yards on the return.

5. Not many penalties at all against the Skins. This is positive.

6. The Skins should run Portis to the outside, not the inside.

7. Brunell and Ramsey didn't show me anything.

8. Finally, it was awesome seeing Joe Gibbs roam the sidelines once again!

He looks great in that headset, doesn't he?

IT'S THE FIRST HALF OF THE FIRST PRESEASON GAME ALREADY!!!!!!!!!

Can we wait a until we've have played few regular season games. Or are we going to act like last year!

How about our pass rush?? They look good except for the over pursuit.

Dude. I am allowed to give first half observations...especially since the starters are playing. Take a chill pill man!

You got me. As soon as it was exposed that he sucks, did you notice how often the Broncos threw his way?

2. It was very nice seeing Springs and Taylor step up to the plate and get their first INTs.

Yes, it was. And Marcus Washington was strong the first series as well.

3. The offense looks horrible. Actually, it's embarassing.

Doesn't matter.

4. The kickoff coverage units stinks. The Broncos were getting too many yards on the return.

Ditto. Ditto.

6. The Skins should run Portis to the outside, not the inside.

7. Brunell and Ramsey didn't show me anything.

These observations are true based on what we saw in one half of the first pre-season game. I hold little concern that this is the way it will be on Sept. 12.

8. Finally, it was awesome seeing Joe Gibbs roam the sidelines once again!

Oh how sweet it was. Would like to see him ditch the black cap though. Black is NOT a Redskins color!

One thing about being overly aggressive, it can be used against you. That bootleg has been really killing us since everyone is overpursuing the ball. Overall I thought that the defensive pressure was better than what we have seen during Spurrier's tenure.

Can't believe that Jansen injury!!!

One thing I've noticed about our kickoff-returns: the return man tends to outrun his own blocking. Chad Morton looked extremely ticked off after the one blown play (especially since the other return man tried to take that return from him).
