Good job!

Not going to get into bashing Landry, as he is the new "sacred cow" of Skins fans everywhere.

I like posting here at the Warpath....I don't want to blow it.

The Redskins players seamed to be having the time of their lives....high-fiveing each other and full of exuberance. Reminded me of Gibbs 1.

Re: Scud's Studs Week 1 (Giants at Redskins)

Grossman - outside of a couple of WTF moments I thought he was great

Davis - he was in beast mode all day. Cooley is clearly not 100% so it's good to see FD stepping up

Gaffney - the trade to get him was a steal

The defense - loved how they played with such high energy, especially in the 2nd half, the transformation to the 3-4 seems to be complete

I would add that the trade for Hightower was a steal as well - Jarmon for our starting RB? great move by Shanny . Running 25 times a game for 72 hard-earned yards and a TD is an awesome pick up in my estimation.

And Jarmon got cut, correct?

Yup no doubt.

I really liked our overall commitment to the run even though it wasn't cranking out big yards. I feel like last year we bailed on the running game too often.

Was the Gaffney trade straight up or was another pick involved?

Re: Scud's Studs Week 1 (Giants at Redskins)

The front seven did their thing, could end up becoming a "bend but, don't break" unit. Who has the breakdowns for yardage per half? Giants didn't do well converting 3rd or 4th downs either.

Straight up for Gaffney.

The Hightower trade involved a late round pick.

Besides the obvious I would give Armstrong an A for his tremendous effort. Great CB play stopped him from having a monster day.

Doughty is still a goat on coverage. LL can't comeback soon enough.

Wow, our D played so well I didnt even consider adding 30 back into the equation. Just more to look forward too.

If Landry is out one or more weeks, does Doughty get benched for Rookie Gomes?
