Redskins vs. Browns gameday thread

We really need to finish drives. No reason we shouldn't have won by at least two touchdowns today. Still, a win's a win!

True, a W is indeed a W, but we do need to be able to get the job done. Yardage is nice, but it is all about the points. Detroit came back today and made it a game with the Texans, but of course they gave themselves too little time to really get a W. Cleveland is a better team than Detroit now with Kitna and Williams gone, but if we get complacent, we can lose next week as far fetched as that sounds. It is great that JC doesn't have any INT's but he is very dry on TD passes as of late.

One thing I would definitely like to see is us being able to put up 20+ points, consistently, week in and week out. It's funny, since when we play teams like Philly and Dallas, we make it look EASY!

I agree, that is the only way we will become a strong contender for the whole enchilada. This was the tune up part of our schedule where we were looking to get 30pts a game, but we are simply not scoring or playing sloppy as with the Rams. No way we beat the Gmen playing like this, or Pittsburgh for that matter.

I'm happy we won. Now that I've got that out of the way, I'm tired of being unable to consistently score points, game in and game out, year in and year out. All the nice yardage stats look great, but we just aren't scoring enough. I love the way 5-2 looks, but we simply have to find the endzone more.

Also, the lack of pass rush is just maddening. We come close to sacks all the time, but it just seems like we can't bring down the QB.

On a side note, dating back to last season, we're 9-3 in our last 12 games. Pretty good. Imagine if we could score more.

Plackemeier looked very solid. A helluva lot better than Durant.
