A 40yarder should be routine for pro-kickers... even if they had gained 5-8 yards more and then kicked, not much difference.

Man, Portis is so tough...when he's healthy, there's not much better.

I second the comments of someone else here... it's really frustrating when the Skins dominate most of the game but can't score the points to win going away and have to gut it out at the end. How come only 1 catch for Cooley... he should have at least 5 catches a game

LMFAO ..... redskins.com post game FIRST THING GIBBS SED WAS MAN EVERYBODY FOUGHT THEIR GUTS OUT...

lmao thats gotta be his coined phrase, great WIN for the team.... it was really important to get this win.

He just said Jansen injury does not look good...

Meks · 09-09-2007, 05:34 PM

oh janses done for the season no doubt.

Bushead · 09-09-2007, 05:38 PM

Stephone Heyner maybe had one good game, but its a long season so hopefully he can continue to fill in.

I think Steven Heyer handled Jason Taylor amazingly. I don't think we will have a problem if Jansen is out for a few more weeks.

Gibbs just said on the post game report that he kicked it from there cause he was afraid of running the ball more and getting more penalities, he pointed out the Chargers game (Which I am gonna assume was last season) where we were in FG range and a holding call put us out of range.

So. Makes sense. :P

Yeah that does make sense, and he seems to have alot of confidence in Suisham too.

Was that the Casay Rabach game from a couple of years ago?

I figured he did that because with the way Portis and Betts kept battling for extra yards, he didn't want to chance a fumble.

Great point. That's the key right there.

He knew Suisham could make it, so it was really a no-brainer for him.

Suisham looked really good; not only did he go 3/3 on FGs, but he also had a few TBs. How long has it been since we had multiple TBs in a game?

The first thing my uncle said to me when he walked into the door coming home from the game was...... "Rob, we've got a kicker".

MTK · 09-09-2007, 07:16 PM

He sure has a leg, as long as he's accurate it does appear that we have our kicking problems... well, kicked!
