I'm not very optimistic after seeing the same old Redskins early this morning. (some would argue - ever) I realize our secondary is beat up and the injuries/suspension there is a complete mess. But Hall is complete garbage and shouldn't even be out there. He's a huge liability and evidently too good to tackle in the preseason. Culliver's PI was questionable given the announcers thought it was offensive PI however, I liked his body slam tackle later in the first. Defense got picked apart like Hazlett never left.
Our vaunted defensive line was a sieve at times. Didn't see the dominating middle of the line that I hoped would at least put some of the other woes on the back burner. Paul's injury and now Redd's injury are very sad but typical stumbles on our long hard rocky road to legitimacy.
Alfred looks like Alfred Morris :eclipsee_Victoria:and Looks like the rookie can help take some pressure and carries off his shoulders. Red zone woes? You don't say? Some day. Roberts probably isn't going anywhere due to his dead money, shocker. But he needs to be deactivated. Give Grant his spot and bring Crowder up when healthy. DO NOT give Chris Thompson the ball on ST ever again. How are we still looking for someone to catch the ball on ST and not fumble it?? HOW? Seems to me we are going to run the ball a lot. I like that but looking at the numbers, we led in running, passing, TOP and got our asses handed to us because of undisciplined play and piss poor special teams.
Good 52 yard field goal, bad every kickoff. Tres Way needs to kickoff or they need to find another specialist.
I'm starting to see points made against Jay Gruden as a head coach more and more. Pettine looked mean, nasty and confident. Gruden looked lost at times, again. Another unforced timeout for Kirk in the 2nd qtr pisses me off more and more every frickin time.
I'm not going to comment much on the QB situation. Lets just say it is what it is and it ain't what I hoped it would be. Its early, maybe too early to say "same old Redskins" but that pretty much what I walked away from this outing thinking to myself.
