For the win.

Connell was pretty darn good with some nice speed. I'd take him and Thrash right now. We would have a scoring potent offense for sure.

However I do think the morons out there tend to be the most vocal on the radio, on social media, etc.

Ta Daaa.

EQ - Must feel good to have one's point proven so eloquently and immediately.

I was hoping Sunny D was joking.

If we're gonna give old WRs a try, why not Randy Moss?

DCSkins - Washington Redskins Fans Cousins on Fletcher interception: “We threw a touchdown pass on him in seven-on-seven yesterday where he had the guy covered pretty well but it was still completed, [Fletcher] was very frustrated about that. He walked by me today in the locker room just before we came out here and he goes, ‘I’m gonna pick you off today.’ And I shook my head. I go, ‘All right. You know, all right.’ And sure enough, he picks me off."

Hail!

Need to Know: Shanahan hits the brakes on RG3 - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins

It's always refreshing to have the correct perspective on the situation. So many overreactions on Adam Schefter's tweet yesterday that it made me sick.

This WR corps has so much swagger! I'm excited.

It's one of the things I appreciate most about what Shanahan has brought to the team. We don't have superstars necessarily (Tana is still our most talented receiver) but it's a quality all around group and so much different than the Cerrato and even Gibbs eras where it was Tana, Cooley and a Turd Ferguson or two most years.

LOL the comment on Tyler P
Indeed, we could do much better...

Good. I hope that he is learning new moves, without which he likely won't be DPOY.

"Last week, Orakpo unleashed a wicked spin move against Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams, who acknowledged Orakpo is a chore to block. Head coach Mike Shanahan has noticed."

Brian Orakpo: Defensive Player of the Year is 'very obtainable'

Thats the first time Ive read Orakpo and spin move in the same sentence. If he adds another move, that could be pretty big. All he normally had in the past was a speed rush and bull rush. Not saying DPOY big, but he doesnt have to be that to have a successful season.

Heck yeah. That's what I'm talking about.

I could see it happening, he must be really fired up about the team now that we have a real offense to help the defense. After the experience with Zorn era, he must be pumped to have Shanny as coach and winning team. And of course, it's contract year for him.
