Well when he was in South Bend they won the National Championship. When he was with San Fran they won the bowl.

What has Snyder won?

Like I said before, MKelly's catching was a great thing to see...

Rak was good rushing, looked lost in coverage...

Jarmon looked good as well shedding blocks while keeping eye on QB...

I'm telling you, Dixon looked DAMN good at DT too... that really surprised me... he was in the backfield 3-4 plays.

... but I agree with others... why is Orakpo, a guy who didn't play LB in college our STARTING OLB? I mean, I'm sure eventually he could be good there, but he is a pass-rusher in the mold of a Freeney, Tuck, Ware, not a guy who should be covering Todd Heap!

Best players tonight?
I say, Malcolm Kelly, Horton and McIntosh

Ijaeger · 08-13-2009, 10:55 PM

So far we are the only team that has not scored in the preseason, I'd love to say we are sandbagging but all I saw was the same ol' shit from last year. Yeah it's the 1st preseason game but there's really no excuse, we are not ready to play better teams yet. But F it, Hail to the Redskins! Hail victory!...even if it only comes once in a while.

I love the passion but seriously...

I'd like to see Pete Carrol go play Florida every year at nuetral site. Or go into Baton Rouge every other year. They'd be one more team.

Biggest disappointments?
Tryon...again, Devon Thomas, Colt

I don't know how we could keep him but after tonight I would hate to let him go.

Player of the game....Hunter Smith

And he's been dining out ever since. In SF he parked Montana's car. That was his job. If he were responsible for them winning, why won't anyone else hire him? Because they all know he sucks. It's the Redskins or its ESPN for a phony like Vinny. The real jobs go to closers.

Hail to the Redskins · 08-13-2009, 10:59 PM

yeah... Dixon will be practice squad probably... which sucks... who he have to beat out? Golston?

We have Griffin, Haynesworth, Montgomery, Golston at DT... as the 4 that stay?

skinsnut · 08-13-2009, 11:01 PM

The good thing about the game is this....We will all realise that our defense is top 10 but certainly not top 5, and that our offense is still about #25 or so....the only change I see is our punting team is better...slightly

Paintrain · 08-13-2009, 11:07 PM

The first sky has fallen in DC! It's. Pre. Season. Game. One.

If our defense was top 5 last year why wouldn't you think it would be this year with the additions of Orakpo, Haynesworth, and Jarmon?

We all know the preseason is really vanilla. its not like they game planned for the Ravens. They had things that they wanted to see from the O and the D and while im sure they didnt see what they thought they would at least now we know that we do have some young guys who can become good players. Dixon,Jarmon
RAK will be special.

DBUCHANON101 · 08-13-2009, 11:09 PM

Sorry Smootsmack, looks like you have to wait another week to see your guy Chase.
