Playoff hunt!

Schneed10 · 12-28-2016, 10:09 AM

I'm not worried about the Giants' offense playing. Except for Beckham, they otherwise suck. I'm focused on their defense.

If McAdoo is an idiot he would play the guys who are hurting, like Janoris Jenkins and Snacks Harrison. But he's not an idiot. I think a lot of the defensive starters will play, but the ones who are questionable definitely will not.

And if the key components of the defense take a set, then we're in good shape. I think Eli will definitely start the game, but if we can put a hat on him a couple times then McAdoo will wise up and get him out of there. Not sure if that's necessarily a good thing though, the dude throws more INTs than any 'franchise' QB out there.

Beckham is the only thing that scares me.

What Schneed said.

I don't care what they say right now, they won't play any guys that are the least bit questionable, and any starters that do play likely won't go more than a half.

Good assessment:

Washington Redskins could catch break in finale vs. New York Giants - Washington Redskins Blog- ESPN

Well this sucks!!

Four Redskins did not practice: Su'a Cravens, Quinton Dunbar, Donte Whitner and Chris Baker. Coach Jay Gruden said it's not looking good for Cravens to return this week.

Defense just needs to be aggressive. Cravens is overrated at this point. He is a rookie and needs time to grow and get healthy. He isn't a
Champ or a Sean Taylor, that made a major immediate impact.

Cravens out isn't that big of a loss.
