I bet whomever said that didn't achieve much.

to be honest, no stat supported his argument that he played lights out.

I love the fact that they don't feel like resting on their laurels, but want to get better. I honestly feel sorry for Arizona because this Redskins team is fully focused.

That Arizona team did not look very good against a poor Carolina team. If a rookie can throw for 400+ yards on the road in his first ever NFL game, we should be able to move the ball on them.

I know. Rexy should be licking his chops.

Plus Hightower is going to be jacked up to face his old team.

I'm all for Hightower getting 20+ carries but I'm not sure about him having to play 50+ snaps. By my count he may have played as many as 59 and there were situations where Torain's power could have been useful against a stacked boxed. I guess they really think the world of Hightower's pass blocking.

And it only took him one week to throw 2 TD passes. Compare that to a certain QB that waited until Week 10's Monday Night Beatdown to throw 2 TD passes then waited till week 14 to do it again.

I was hoping to see Helu for more than one carry. There were situations in the game where I thought his speed burst could have been beneficial, but I'm not questioning the coaches...Hightower is a #1 RB. He's never had the role all to his own before and he's proving the Cards mis-used him, or underestimated him.

Holy shit, Lavar and Dukes giving the Skins mad props today. Even said they were wrong with their views on McNabb (seeing how he shit it up yesterday) and Rex lit it up.

Bandwagon is going to get full fast boys...lol

Dirtbag59 · 09-12-2011, 01:48 PM

I don't get why the Giants are complaining about injuries. They had Piere-Paul, Mathias, and Canty up front. They also had Rolle and Phillips playing safety. Michael Boley was there. Rocky Bernard.

The dropoff from Tuck and Osi isn't really that much with the two guys that played yesterday. In fact I'm pretty sure they only really missed Tuck not Osi. And we can match that loss with Landry not playing. Granted missing two starting corners stinks but like I said they still had two quality safeties and Aaron Ross is a first round corner.

Also lets not forget that Javaris Jenkins is out for the year and we had to settle for Golston on many plays.

Tim Hightower just guranteed a win over the Cards Sunday. He's plenty stoked and not hiding it.
