The Gud, the bad and the Great. Rams Post game reactions

[SirLK26]

Just saw this bit on an NFL.com article.

To back Fisher's point: Like the Cowboys of last autumn, Washington's line prowess and ground game have helped the Redskins chew up the clock to an unsual extent. They owned the ball for 37:44 on Sunday after holding it for 37:54 in Week 1 against the Dolphins -- the first time they've topped 37-plus minutes of possession in back-to-back games since 1992.

Gud


O-Line and Running backs: Are freaking kidding me? We have some beasts in the backfield! (My buddy dubbed them, "Thunder and Thunder") .

I went all hulk-smash mode when ALFMO got his face mask pulled and they fed him the rock right down the middle the next play. Just good football

Bad
Penalties
No deep threat/action

Great

Defense in general. The Rams had no answer. Congrats to JOE B on his first NFL win at D coordinator.

Ugly
Jeff Fishers facial hair

EDIT: Honorable mention: I also thought Gregg Williams goat looked pretty dumb

Lol Lis commented on . . . Said he looked like a molester. Seriously, some people gotta change up their look every 30 years or so.

The average fan who never played the game does not realize how much more physically demanding it is to play defense than offense. As my college football
coach used to say "Fatigue makes cowards of us all". Using the ground game to control the clock is going to beat down a defense and make even pro bowlers
play like scrubs. While the same time your defense stays well rested and fresh.
The rules are geared toward the passing game these days but it appears the Redskins can beat people old school by running the ball down the opponents throats.

That's what I'm talking about, 1,2 punch to the ribs each time will wear them down. Another reason our defense is playing so well, they've been
on the field for an average of 22+ minutes a game getting lots of rest.

Ha,ha not that old, didn't know that wasn't coach's original quote, and I never Googled it. I always thought about it when I was gassed after a hard workout
or other exertion, thinking "I couldn't kick my grandma's ass right now."

I love the new nickname: Morris + Jones = MoJo

About time we had some mojo in DC!

McVay and Gruden are both responsible for passing plays with Gruden having final say. Gruden and Callahan on running plays and Gruden generally defers to Callahan on those. my guess is eventually Gruden will be like Gibbs and just have final say on critical moments like 4th down or 2 minute drills

Not that SS needs me or anyone else to back him up on what he said, but I'm sure I heard somewhere (I think it was Joey T.) that the plan was for McVay to call the plays in the preseason games. In the regular season, Gruden would become more involved in the play-calling.

See I don't like that. Either you call the plays or you don't. IMO it just shows lack of confidence.

As for running game, I'm glad it's Callahan that has the power. The man knows how to implement and call a great running game.

[CRedskinsRule]

McVay is a pretty young OC. I like that they let him learn in preseason. As he learns Gruden can focus more on the HC specific parts. It seems they have a long term plan to build a cohesive group and that's a good thing

Only watched bits and pieces of the game, i'll watch it tonight.

Everytime I was watching it looked like Alf and who?Matt Jones was gashing them with the run followed by the defense forcing a punt.

I love this gameplan. Run the ball, kill it in terms of time of possesion and give the defense time to rest and gameplan and pass rush.

Tip of the cap to Barry and Billy C and to J/McVay.

Good win.

Short turn around though, got to get the team ready for a the Gints.
