The Eagles didnt go prevent?

Tripp I dont go back and look at tape, but it doesnt take a scientist to see whats going on. The numbers are there, disregard them if you want.

It's not about disregarding the numbers, it's just that the Redskins have taken 60% of their snaps in the second half this year, in part because they've kicked off in the first half both times.

They haven't sustained offense in the first half, at all, which is a big factor in the losses. But we're talking about fewer than ten first half drives. Any sample of that size that doesn't produce a touchdown isn't...it's not anything. It could be random.

The second half performance suggests it's partially random.

If this first half/second half trend continues, bring it up and we'll discuss it at the bye week.
