Yeah Gomes!!!!!

Well I can officially eat crow now. I thought Clemens was going to be a joke. He is decent, not a starter, but can fill in if need be. I can't wait to see Beck though, and see if this Rex Beck crap was just hype. Hankerson is screwed if he doesn't get his act together next game. He is going up against Gaffney and Stallworth, along with Austin putting in a nice game. We have tons of WRs to go to. Can't forget about Armstrong either for the deep ball threat. Damn, if Rexy can stay healthy we will be rather fun to watch this season!!!!!!!

I wouldn't say that lol

niles paul and terrance austin look like better players than hankerson, regardless of draft position.

skinsfaninok · 08-12-2011, 11:01 PM

Dominated this game

Love Dejon Gomes. Though I don't really see the need for more strong safeties, he's a keeper. Horton, not so much.

Like him or not, Devin Thomas wouldve definitely had caught that 2nd drop by Hankerson......

I agree. Best the SKins have looked in a looooong while. Also, 25 first downs is impressive.

hes right, that we have been efficient. but we did have the roughing the passer penalty. stat checker missed that one

kinda surprised about lack of false starts and how well the line is coming off of the snap considering

Trade them all for 3rd founders, whitehurst style lol

REDSKINZ-RIDEORDIE · 08-12-2011, 11:05 PM

Are you f-cking kidding me????????? He finally caught a pass and looked to had gotten hurt. Stankerson is slowly finding his way on to my sh-t list.

And Banks, well, of course he's safe.

Uh yeah. I'd shut him down the rest of the pre-season. They know exactly what he can do and he can let that knee heal up. No need to plunk him in on returns anymore.

Armstrong, Moss, Gaffney. Then we got a bunch fighting for 2 spots. I think each of them ends up playing NFL football this year unless they get PS'd

Very happy for Terrence. When they got Hankerson and Paul, I had him as the odd youngster out, along with Kelly. Hopefully Hankerson can get it together next go around. I like Donte, but would like us to develop a younger WR corp that can stay around awhile.

JWsleep · 08-12-2011, 11:05 PM

Tell ya what I like--overall, we look well coached. Haven't seen much drop off from first to second to third string. Very nice rhythm and intensity.

I do think there's lots of good competition this year--it's really not clear who will make this team, so everyone looks more engaged.

Far to go yet, but it's a nice night, against a good team and organization in the Steelers.
