orakpo is a damn beast

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

This team needs to dig up a place for Lendy Holmes.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

In my opinion, it's not a good sign when the 2nd team Offense can't produce against the 2nd team Defense. Just goes to show the depth Pittsburgh has right now. Hopefully, our guys will be able to pick it up. Not trying to be pessimistic. Anyone else have a say on this?

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

damn, the Steelers always complete the pass when they really need to...

agreed, and this defense is not stopping anything..

It's that ALL of our three backs are out of the game, and you can't play offense with Marcus Mason/Dominique Dorsey.

Get Cartwright in there and we probably move the ball.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

I think this is a catch...

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

looks like 14 -3 fellas...

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

wow, finally the Steelers are fizzling out...

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

3rd and 20 and you run a draw play? I'd be hot if I were a Steelers fan

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

man were we lucky to have orakpo still available

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=tryfuhl;578356]man were we lucky to have orakpo still available[/quote]


no doubt, there are going to be some teams kicking themselves for not taking him earlier.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

see that's the shit that we need.. those types of throws

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

effin hackett though ugh

good gain with kelly there

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

orakpo's final stats 1 tackle, 3 assists, 1 sack...not too shabby

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

I honestly do not feel comfortable with JC as our QB past this year unless something majorly changes

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=CultBrennan59;578360]orakpo's final stats 1 tackle, 3 assists, 1 sack...not too shabby[/quote]

he had a sack?

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

I thought Hackett got two feet in.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

ahh christ

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=Beemnseven;578362]he had a sack?[/quote]It was that bad snap. He was the first guy there.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Collins has such a cupcake arm.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=GTripp0012;578363]I thought Hackett got two feet in.[/quote]
he dropped it didn't he?

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

now, was that Thomas' fault? or should Collins have thrown it?

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Just missed the interception...but I'm going to just assume it was Devin Thomas' fault. Right, Tripp?

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

wasn't grant

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

no good

but that doesn't really do anything for us

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

...halftime, time to see colt for the third..

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Theismann says Thomas waited for the ball -- while the DB drove in for it...

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

seemed to me that Thomas was well covered...

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=SmootSmack;578369]Just missed the interception...but I'm going to just assume it was Devin Thomas' fault. Right, Tripp?[/quote]Uh, it was thrown at him, but I thought Collins' ball just was thrown into coverage that he doesn't have the arm to fit.

How much of that is Devin, probably not much. I'm thinking Campbell puts it on him.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Oh well, nice drive for the starting offense against the Steelers starting D -- but the fake punt helped...

Still wouldn't mind seeing them actually put the ball in the endzone though.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

First Half
The Good:
Orakpo, Descent first team Oline play, Portis is the man
The Bad:
Secondary got carved by Charlie Batch...freakin Charlie Batch
The Ugly:
QB play, Collins played ok last couple games...but against 2nd team D

Campbell was pretty good on third down, but he didn't have a completion on first or second down. Part of that was bizarre playcalling with the deep balls, and the rest of it seemed to be just runs.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

If sellers injury is serious, then we'll probably get Lorenzo Neal. Just watch.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Through six quarters of preseason...

3 points scored

30 points surrendered

JC is 4/13 for 38 yards

Orakpo looks ok...needs some work in pass coverage

Special teams is suspect. At least Suisham made the X-tra Point (x 3)

Defense looks similar to what it has looked like in years past. Can't stop the third down play.


Overall, I'm not convinced this team is much better than they were last year. But it is only six quarters. And it is just preseason.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

Man, Orakpo is a stud... he seems to be in on every play. Theismann is dead wrong saying Thomas waited on the ball while the defensive guy moved towards it. It was a soft pass into coverage and the defensive guy just ran in front and caught it. I didn't see Thomas sitting there waiting for the ball on the replay.

Lets see now... 6 quarters and 3 points. Hmmmm......

How was Campbell good on third downs. He was 1 for 7. Ummm, pretty bad in my books

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

[quote=SmootSmack;578187]Sam Huff has really become a sorry, sorry man. He's going off about how can London Fletcher expect to be a pro bowler if the best he can do is one tackle in the first preseason game (which, according to Huff, was nationally televised). The sooner he's let go of his radio duties, the better.[/quote]

Seriously. He was talking about how Orakpo went to Oklahoma before Sonny and Larry corrected him. You'd think knowing what college the #1 draft pick attended would be mandatory for a broadcaster on the Redskins Radio Network.

Senility is sinking in.

Which third down are you speaking of? He was 1 for 7.

man I missed like every Portis carry
