Without a question in my mind, Collins. Solid performance.

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Also, let me say that I would also give a piece of that ball to GW for having some cojones and BLITZING a little bit.

It might be premature to say, but Landry looks like the best blitzer in the NFL. Seriously, he ALWAYS lays at least a hit on the QB.

Landry is a great blitzer. If we're smart, they'll put him Eli's face all day long.

Al Saunders for calling a game that made the offense look balanced for a change.It was nice to see the ball being spread around.

Maybe he really isnt comfortable with JC yet.If he is still here next year I'm sure he and Cambell will open it the hell up.

Without a doubt. With a nice break to get everyone fully healthy, our DEFENSE should at least be able to do something with the Giants.

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Collins in a landslide. For someone who hadn't been on the field all year, he looked comfortable in the pocket. I'm sure the Giants will blitz the hell out of us next Sunday and try to rattle him. We must rattle Eli in return.

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Let's not leave out Gregg Williams either. The D was very aggressive last night, we haven't seen that much blitzing since the Jets game. Plus they've given up 1 TD in how many quarters now? 12 or something like that? Hats off to GW.

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Evryone has had the same gameplan for weeks now. Stop Portis and make Campbell beat you through the air. In spite of all Campbell's progress, he hasn't been able to work things consistently inside the 20's and therefore we have been losing by the painfully smallest amounts. The difference in the game was that Collins beat Chicago through the air. His throws were timed perfectly. I was very impressed. and... I do expect the Giants to pressure the heck out of him. I'm glad we have an extra 4 days to rest and prepare for this game.

Collins gets the game all without question.

Lets hope he gets it next week too!

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Collins.. Coming off the bench he showed why Saunders wanted him to be here so badly and how effective the offense can be.. He was efficient, accurate and confident with the ball.. The 10 days will be good in getting him in rythym with the receivers and with a healthy OL going into the Giants game I feel good about being able to steal a win..

But here's the thing that just kills me about GW, he'll call a great game one week, and watch, the very next week against Eli he'll play some soft ass deep zone defense.

I've admittedly been off the Grilliams bandwagon for a while but I will give props to him for the way he called the game last night.. That's what we need to be doing EVERY week from here on out.. Eli-hates pressure in his face.. Jackson-young QB who can be pressured into mistakes.. If we're going to go out, let's go out fighting rather than playing not to get beat..

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Gotta go with Springs. He turned the game around. We haven't had a game changing play like that in a long time. Collins did great and put up the numbers but I still think it was Springs' play that put us in control.

Re: Redskins v Bears game ball

Todd Collins is my choice. Collins did an excellent job coming in and leading the offense under very difficult situation. He showed poise and purpose. Seeing Campbell rolling in pain almost brought tears to me eyes. What more can happen to this team? It's as if the Redskins are cursed.

P.S. An honorable mention goes out to Shawn Springs. His performance was also inspiring. I also liked how aggressive the defensive play calling was from Greg Williams. The Skins really went after the Bears. The game plan to counter Devin Hester was effective also.

I am in the majority here. TC was great last night and virtually won the game for the Skins. He definitely deserves the game ball.
