Oh for sure, but if he was going to be traded I don't think they would have him out there for anything.

IMO all 3 QB's for the SKINS looked good.

[quote=NYCskinfan82;724900]IMO all 3 QB's for the SKINS looked good.[/quote]

Unfortunately none of them could throw a good deep ball. But it was a better outing for all of them, especially Grossman's performance against an elite D like the Jets.

That sucks.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

I think it is now fair to start making predictions on the season.

I am concerned about our defense...particularly run defense.
Also very concerned about the running game.
Passing game should be improved...passing d the same, special teams the same.
So all in all...that doesn't show much improvement.
It seems both the o line and d line need several games to jell still...that is a concern.
I am worried about our first month...probably 1-3 start without looking at schedule if they dont cover for these growing pains
If you cant run/stop the run you are in trouble.
The good thing is the solid coaching...we can pass our way thru...but run defense is my greatest concern....we should use a 4-3 mostly for the first month...it works

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

Last week the OF played an elite DF they made the necessary adjustments and came out this week and looked way better against another elite DF.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

Chris Wilson looked quite good

Theismann made such a big stink about how amazing Santana's hands were and then he drops a gimme like that. Has another starting group of Receivers dropped more balls this pre-season? They better get their sh*t together before the Cowboys come to town.

Well that drop was definitely on Moss, but the majority of the incomplete passes were because of none of the three QBs today could throw the deep ball accurately.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

First two seasons under Shanny aren't going to be great, maybe 3. I know that is saying a lot, but you just can't expect to change systems on both sides of the ball and expect everything to run like a tuned up Corvette right off the bat. Shanny will have the same trouble Zorn did in that he doesn't have the right personnel for his systems that he has put in place, or quite frankly they might be inadequate. With the exception of Spurrier, the preseason has indeed been a good preview of how our offense/defense perform during the regular season. There are indeed some nice bright spots to build on, but the overall look so far is that of a .500 team. Skinsnut is right to be concerned, but that is if one expects us to be automatic playoff material. Who knows, maybe by Sept 12th it will all gel, but usually it doesn't with this team. In short, what you see in preseaon is pretty much what you get in the regular season.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

I really would not be surprised at all to see Portis and Keiland Williams definitely make the team. If they carry only 3 RBs I think its a fight between LJ and Torain. I don't think Willie has done enough and they aren't giving him reps. Never a good sign. I wouldn't mind seeing Williams and Torain making it over LJ and Parker.

He'll play a lot next week they say

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

I think Armstrong, Austin and Banks will make the team, all 3 have shown quite a bit. My guess is Kelly goes on IR.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

[quote=GMScud;724593]Ahh the blind homers. As for you signature, if "you know a good football team when you see it," what makes this team capable of winning 10 more games than last year? LOL. Come on.

I personally expect a slow, stinker of a game. Rex will have no Mike Sellers blocking for him, and Willie Parker is known for being a lousy pass blocker. Personally I don't care about Grossman's numbers in this game, I'll be happy if he gets out alive. That's Jets D is something special.

As for our defense, well the Jets are 31st in ypg during the first few preseason games, so I'd like to see us confuse turnover machine Sanchize and play well.

I'll be happy if our offense moves it, but I doubt it happens. My number one goal: an injury free night. September 12th looms large.[/quote]

Well, we did pretty well in the air, we confused Sanchez, we forced some turnovers, and their D didn't look all that hard ass. Can't wait for Hard Knocks this Wednesday.

I will say at this point I'm very confident in Grossman as a backup. Odds are he'll start some games this year, and I'm okay with that.

I didn't notice any injuries of note for our guys either, which is really positive.

Random Stuff: Leigh Torrence just had a sweet pick-6 against SD's Billy Volek.

You forgot to mention Haynesworth lining up next to the Jets fullback all night.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

What a difference a new D-Coord. makes. All of the sudden we have guys making plays on the ball (Hall, Buchanon, Landry) . Last season we were a boring, bland D that didn't give up alot but never took any chances. The run D is a concern but that's what happens when you switch to a 3-4 sometimes. I think it will get corrected and we will have a top 10 Defense. I really feel good about this whole team for the first time in a long time. HTTR

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

Saw someone say Portis sprained his ankle, how bad? any word on this and/or any other injuries?

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

Let's see...Kelly is once again pretty much done, so is Willie, and Thomas is on the bubble. Great game except for the run defense.

man did anybody see that write up on espn.com for the game? what A CROCK! so biased for the JETS it's ridiculous. they only showed the moss reception...that's it. everything else was the jets scoring drives and at the end they said and the skins scored on a late TD drive to win the game in the 4th.

Not to mention the obligatory TMZ-like blurb on Haynesworth, that conveniently left out how he owned the Jets O-Line.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

yeah, espn, anything to get a HIT on their website. I can't stand their biased...especially for the popular teams. remember when they had the most profitable teams the cowboys were number one...and at the end in like 2 seconds they said the Skins were the 2nd most profitable. ridiculous. the skins are the rodney dangerfield of football...really funny...but no respect.

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

[quote=Angry;724925]Didn't Banks fumble a return?[/quote]

He did. He also took a 1 yard screen pass on 3rd and 13 and straight up FLEW for a first down. He's a real weapon if used properly. If we can use him in the return game and draw up situational plays for him out of the slot, on screen passes, and maybe a wildcat here and there, I think he could really contribute for us. We haven't had that kind of game breaking explosiveness forever around here.

I'm re-watching the game right now on TiVo, and the opening toss was funny. The Jets sent Brunell, Coles, and Jason Taylor out. LOL.

I've been saying for awhile Banks would be great on 3rd downs, you can't hit what you can't see.

1. It was an AP story
2. There are limited higlight right online. I believe there was one skins highlight and two jets higlights. Not some huge bias one way over the other
3. ESPN has the skins in the playoffs as a wild card team in their annual predictions

Re: Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread
 

[quote=EARTHQUAKE2689;724961]Does anyone else feel that DeAngelo Hall is returning to his Atlanta Pro Bowl form?[/quote]I think it was expected that Rogers would benefit from more aggressive coverage schemes, but Hall has also adapted well to more aggressive coverage schemes. Which is a tad surprising, since every time you let him do his own thing he shies away from contact with receivers.

He's actually quite good at bump 'n run, even if he hates it because it costs him interception opportunities.
