ES Coverage & Interactive Game Day Thread: 2012 Redskins vs Eagles (Final)

[Voice_of_Reason]

No problem going conservative and getting the 3 there. We get ball after the half.

See, and at 3-6, ball inside the 20. I think you take 2-3 shots. The thing is, RGIII has to know, if it's not there right away, throw the ball into the upper deck. I don't mind the 3 points, but I would have liked to see them throw one more into the endzone.

And Robert's got to learn, don't dance around and always try and make a play. Sometime, it's important. Sometimes, better to just throw it away and save the time.

I'm thinking he's extra disposed towards that so far in this game, wanting a win so bad at this point.

Unfortunately, we all know no lead is safe with this team. Not saying they'll blow it, but it's hard to be excited when the offense looks quite shaky and the defense is, well, the defense.

Oh. I agree. That is why I am saying to enjoy it now. We played well.

As a Resskins fan you got to enjoy the small things. Who knows what will happen the second half.

[RandyHolt]

If Mike has no faith in our pass pro = try a simple end zone fade.

I call bunk to anyone that thinks Griffin cant throw it, or we dont have a WR that can catch one.

[Vladimir L]

Mariweather is a diff maker.

We need another safety next year and we should be good.

So far I am not convinced that Kyle is a good play caller

Yo have company, though the vast majority of pro football disagrees. I think he makes his share of gaffes, but I also understand the a number of instances that I thought that, it turned out after getting more info that there was more to the story that I didn't know about the specif plays involved.

And sometimes he does just blow it, period (as does everyone, I guess). I don't think he's a genius and likely has a lot of growth yet to achieve, but I have no reason to doubt what I see in the way of solid amounts of positives with more expected to come, or what the pro consensus on him is versus the typical "ES posters who think Kyle sucks."

Need a good drive to start the second half. Lets put this game away!

[Skins199021]

im amazed by the amount of complaining and coach bashing in here, even knowing were up 17-3 at half.....

[skins island connection]

Crappy first half by the offense by and large. But, I put much of the blame on Kyle S. We need to come out and score a TD on our first drive in the 3rd--get the running game churning and work off the play action.

Maybe it was me, but the offense for the most part looked gimmicky.
Let em play old fashioned football; maybe some throws downfield some just to loosen the defense a little, and just give the ball to Morris; the option stuff is gonna get RGIII hurt if they keep it up.

C;mon Kyle, this ain't college.

[bigevhfan]

Our oline cannot stop a 4 man rush, the pocket is collapsing on every play and RGIII has no time.

Yep, why blitz when you are collapsing the pocket with 4?

[darrell1106]

After the last 3 weeks if you are not smiling after that half you are just a miserable ass.

This is the best we have played in weeks. Not perfect, but not this **** we have seen for weeks. Smile. Enjoy it for now, it might not last.

Well said lol

[WheresRickySanders83]

The loss of Fred Davis continues to kill our offense.

[Bobbyst21]

Would've liked to have seen 1 shot in the end zone. The 3 is nice but 7 would've folded the eagles up. We weren't suppose to get another chance in the half. Might as well and go big at least once.

[RandyHolt]

I think by running Morris after the RG3 scramble / negative pass, maybe Mike was telling RG3 dont do that again.

But that was a strong throw and even with a 5 yd loss, its in the Kai zone.

[ArmchairRedskin]

Polumbus is the worst. Dude gets pushed back like nobody's business. Griff can hardly drop back.

Sure do like this lead, though. Hopefully we can get that run game going and take some pressure off of Griffin.
