I definitely think it’s more about Perine finding his groove. He’s learned to be more patient and set up his blocks. And when he sees the hole he’s planting his foot and hitting it.

100% agree. Let’s hope it continues.

+1. The film breakdown rated him very high. Cooley said he never pre-determined anything and made reads like a back is supposed to.

Even earlier in the season, most of the failures discussed in the film breakdowns were placed on Kelly missing his cut or the TEs blocking. That's not to say there were misses.

Just a hypothetical, but in the spirit of continuing the Jordan Reed conversation, would you rather have our offense have consistent 2nd and 6s or have the match-up advantage of Reed on the field?

I realize it isn't an either or (Davis isn't a fantastic blocker either but is better than Reed)

I believe being truly balanced, not just in number of plays but the ability to actually run the ball and force the defense to react is terribly underrated.

I also believe over the course of a season, being in consistent 2nd down and mediums (2nd and 6 or better) is better than having an exotic sports car constantly in the shop. Kirk has proven he can move the ball up and down the field with lesser talent and no real run game to date. Kirk has been consistently behind in down and distance and has still proven his worth.

Just make it even, and our offense is so much better, and the time of possession benefit would help out the D too.

I love Reed and recognize he is truly a unique talent, but overall I believe the team would benefit more with a true duel threat TE who is consistently available on sundays

Mark Bavaro is retired. We all want that but we may just need to settle for a role player at TE who can block like mad.

This team could so use a Don Warren-type TE. None of our TE's are strong run blockers. That is the biggest factor in the inconsistent run game - Perine should be good enough. Hell, Matt Jones should have been good enough. Draft a TE that can block!

Re: Bigg Thicc Turkey Leg Giants - Redskins Postgame Central

I know I'm late but positives are a pretty rare thing these days and I don't think I saw anybody talking about it:

I did think Zach Vigil flashed quite a lot in this game, and Cooley loved him, gave him an A-, with all the injuries, having a good young ILB is a really good thing !
