That fade route needed to go to Hank, oh well, we're within 1 point.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Still can't score a TD.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Kyle's passing attack is great between the 20's, but totally sucks in the red zone.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

[quote=Big C;858565]by the way, kerrigan has a bigger impact on games than orakpo. he gets more pressure it seems and causes more turnovers. bottom line.[/quote]

So we have two good OLBs, nothing wrong with that.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Our defense is playing great giving our offense a short field, but we stll cant get it done. We need the defense to get a TD.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

No running game.......

i just dont think rak is as good as people make him out to be. hes a good player, but not elite like a lot of people seem to think. thats my opinion.

[quote=Big C;858565]by the way, kerrigan has a bigger impact on games than orakpo. he gets more pressure it seems and causes more turnovers. bottom line.[/quote]Totally agree. Kerrigan was a turnover-causing machine at Purdue as well. Rak would do well to watch some film on how Kerrigan attacks the ball when he's in position to make a sack.

What does Shanahan gain from rotating feature backs on a game by game basis?

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Still wondering how you go from a guy, Helu, getting like 30 touches one game... then having him NO WHERE in the gameplan the next week...

GET HELU INVOLVED!!! I mean, do they not watch the same games as us??

[quote=Big C;858576]i just dont think rak is as good as people make him out to be. hes a good player, but not elite like a lot of people seem to think. thats my opinion.[/quote]

I agree, but remember he's taking on the opposing team's best pass blocker on most plays... Kerrigan is not.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Man these refs are TERRIBLE

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

The refs are sucking today.

Kerrigan vs Columbo
Orakpo vs Jake Long

And that was the point with bringing in Kerrigan. If the blockers are occupied with Rak and Kerrigan is open, so be it.

Once again, I don't know why our fans hate the idea of having two good players in one position.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

[quote=SFREDSKIN;858583]Kerrigan vs Columbo

Well... Orakpo was on the TE that play.... ZERO pressure... just saying,

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

[quote=BleedBurgundy;858580]I agree, but remember he's taking on the opposing team's best pass blocker on most plays... Kerrigan is not.[/quote]

so does demarcus ware and he lives in opponents' backfields. if orakpo wants to be considered elite, he needs to do the same with regularity.

i dont think anyone "hates the idea". just an observation and an opinion that has been formulated over a long period of time. elite players beat the double team. again, demarcus ware.

But this isn't about Orakpo, is about the defense making plays period. If this happens every game, so be it. In the end Orakpo alone doesn't win games, teamwork does.

I'd give very serious consideration to trading Rak this offseason. Well, to be clear, I'd test the market with him and see what he might bring back potentially

I don't think he is elite. My point with those making the Kerrigan > Orakpo argument is simply that if you swapped sides, you might see swapped results as well. That's all.

With the new CBA, it sure as hell wouldn't be a 1st rd pick.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

AWFUL on 3rd downs today though... seriously... bad.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Man. Barnes blows again.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

i dont have a problem with using 1st and 2nd round picks on guys who get at or protect the qb.

orakpo has rom to improve but hes got time too. hopefully when we are contending in 2-3 years he will be at his peak making plays.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Once again, no pressure on a key 3rd down.

Include him in the package for Luck w/ 2 1st rounders.

And try to get what back? I don't think we could get much better at the OLB position.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

we have to get the sack there...

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Orakpo ABUSED by Matt Moore... seriously... wow.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Wow. Wide open.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Now we are blitz happy on defense getting toasted twice on 3rd down.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Before you b*tch about the defense, the offense has been giving two TOs that have resulted in FGs.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Does Rak have any career interceptions?

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

So sick of our sorry fricking football team.... if you really are a fan, like us who are on here, obviously...

...there is nothing more gut-wrenching than feeling like you HAVE to watch the Redskins.... and get this EVERY WEEK.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Wow let Matt Moore run on us like he was Mike Vick.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

That was an AWFUL pass rush on that long pass to Marshall. The entire d-line in two point stance? WTF is that?

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

[quote=Ruhskins;858603]Before you b*tch about the defense, the offense has been giving two TOs that have resulted in FGs.[/quote]

I don't really see how anyone could bitch about the defense. At least not this game. The offense has been falling short. We should be up 17-10 at least.

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

Ok good stop defense. Your are doing your job

Re: Redskins v. Dolphins Gameday Thread
 

we had snow crab legs, shrimp, asian ribs, fried chicken wings with hot sauce, pigs in a blanket, chili cheese dip for nacho chips and carrots n dip .... finally the skins game is broadcasted in balt and i can do a traditional food, beer couch sunday
