Washington Redskins vs Philadelphia Eagles Gameday Thread

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

You can blame who ever you want, but this is a complete s@&t show all around. This is not a coaching problem. This started with a miscue by Morris, miscues by Robert, and terrible field position. As much as I hate to say it iii is not close to the same player as last year. He is going to take some time to get back. I didn't think he would be this far behind.

I didn't plan on going undefeated, but I did plan on doing a bit better then tonight

But it seems half the board hates the other half the board by the end of a loss. I know there is some history built into it, but its still kinda funny. If the Skins could just go 19-0 one year we'd all get along.

All is not lost. 0-1 isn't season over.

Apparently you have not been paying attention to this thread.......

It'll be very interesting to see Denver vs Philly this year. But by then Philly's Offense will be figured out so we'll see.

This could be the best thing that happens to us tbh..

A lot of sky high feelings around the Redskins Org...

This could be a wake up call, and make us turn a page.

Sometimes you just get your butt kicked.

It doesn't have to mean you were out coached, or that you had no heart, or weren't ready, or were over confident.

We are young and probably alittle weak in the defensive backfield, but so what - we won the division last year with the same issue. If we still play this sloppy in weeks two and three I will start to worry, but not after one game.

I agree the team was very overconfident but majority of that was from RG3, for all the things I loved of him last year drove me nuts this offseason leading up to the season. I guess can't have both.

Hopefully some of the swelling of Mr. III's head goes down a wee bit.

Griff looking way better..........we are going to be fine this year folks

[DynamiteRave]

How many penalties do we have like 15?

How does RG3 respond,will the adrenaline be flowing too much? I can see him overthrowing receivers because he's so excited and that could be turnovers.
I think the offense will score some points but I dont think the defense was tested with the shitty teams we played in preseason,so how they respond will be key.The eagles will def test us more than anyone we faced in preseason
I think the game will be close,down to the last possession

you:RGIII always brings his best when the lights are brightest. Still can't believe anyone has any doubts about the guy.

Me:This seems to be aimed at me,I think theres a big difference about having doubts about a guy then what I'm saying.
He is coming off surgery and hasnt taken a snap in a game,this is not like last season.To think that he wont be rusty or excited isnt doubting the guy

But I guess you're right,I did think it would be a closer game

Won't be close, Denver will win convincingly. This is a lot more about us playing (and being coached/prep'd) poorly that Philly being a strong team.
