Breakdown: Redskins-Eagles

[GMScud]

I was disappointed to hear that Rabach has been playing so poorly. I haven't broken down any film, but to hear he has been our worst guy up front is a surprise. He's been so good since he came here from Baltimore. I wonder how much of that has to do with the groin injury.

As far as Campbell is concerned, I think we should go no huddle more often. I'm worried that our D is going downhill. We're not getting the pressure we were a month ago, and obviously our secondary is decimated again. Time to put up some points. With our run blocking steadily improving, I hope to see Cooley get more involved in the coming weeks too.

Great breakdwon Tripp, as usual.

I should clarify Rabach. It's not like he's been sticking out like a sore thumb and the rest of you just haven't seen it. That's not what I'm trying to say. I'm just pointing out that on the running plays that weren't successful, Rabach was either getting driven back, or was getting caught in a double team with Kendall, and neither of them making it to the second level. This, as far as I can tell, has been an issue for him all his career, not just these last three games or his time here in Washington.

On the plays that have worked, Rabach has done his job very well. He's just inconsistent at a position where you need a consistent effort.

I never realized his inconsistency. All the articles I've read, the coaches and players are constantly raving about how good and how tough he is. For that reason I just never paid too much attention to him. I just figured if he was playing we were good to go as far as center is concerned. I'll be watching him more closely now.
