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

We are in deep, deep trouble.

I definitely think things look meh, but deep deep trouble? You're out of ur mind

[ConnSKINS26]

Alfred Morris really needs the ball more in the 2nd half.

Yup, gotta eat clock and keep the D off the field.

[SJValleySkinz]

More strikes against the Shanahans and they are once again popping up as soon as the slightest sign of expectation appears.

[Jumbo]

Too early for that. It's a three point game.

I sorta believe that members who have decided we've already lost at times like this and post it once, really don't need to be wasting their time or anyone else's by posting more.

But that's just me and I can be so hardass sometimes .

[Gibbs Hog Heaven]

WHATEVER happens second half, the ball needs to end up the last two minutes in Robert's hands and not Eli's.

Hail.

[srtman04]

Horrible.

No pressure; coverage sucks.

Since we rarely are known to make adjustments on defense, I'm almost inclined to go to bed to save myself the spike in blood pressure

Our defensive line makes me want to puke!!!

You cannot tell me they are not taking off plays. Not one guy on the DL has beaten his man tonight - NOT ONE!!!

COME ON!!!!

It's just we've seen this same song and dance over and over again......why would this one be any different?

[SpringfieldSkins]

How about an onside kick to start the half?

[DM72]

They just need to replace these bumbs in the secondary this offseason and we'll be fine. I'm done hoping they turn it around. They are what they are.

[dckey]

Eli should just take a knee on first and second down because no matter the distance he will complete it on 3rd down

[CjSuAvE22]

Eli's pass was indefensible but if our pass rush was any bit decent, we would've gotten to Eli before he made that pretty incredible throw. i'm banging my head into a concrete wall. i hate our front 7 (including Kerrigan) right now

They look very stiff off the hike very Rocky Mcintosh like... ALL OF EM.

[benskins26]

Alfred Morris really needs the ball more in the 2nd half.

He's tearing it up.

[ejay183]

Unless the defense finds a way to pressure Eli, this game is going to get out of hand.

[Voice_of_Reason]

Kyle Shanahan fails again in the red zone. We only ever score on long passing plays.

Nah, that was a tough spot. I'm not going to blame Kyle. He's called a pretty good game.

The D can't get off the field, and is putting ridiculous pressure on the O to score TDs every drive. Not just score. But score TDs.

Giants had 4 drives:
11 for 69, 6:30
13 for 51, 5:56
13 for 85, 7:23
6 for 54, 0:41.

No punts. They shot themselves in the foot on a stupid penalty which "killed" the first drive, had another penalty and then missed a FG on the second, then scored a TD, and final FG.

The defense is PUTRID. Just absolutely awful.

The 'Skins had 4 drives, punt, TD, punt, FG.

But the O is playing tight. Like they KNOW that Manning is going to walk down the field no matter what, so they are pressing and making some uncharacteristic mistakes.

[skinsmania123]

The defense giving up so many third downs is frustrating, but holding them to field goals is progress. The offense has to play better in the second half if we want to win this game.

I thought that as well AND if Kyle would call a somewhat normal game I think we would have scored more. I would like to see us run more, throw some more intermediate passes and set up the long ball. Where is Moss? Where are some of our key receivers? They are not in there. I am not thrilled with the plays on offense.

[TheGreek1973]

Eli Manning does not have one grass stain on his uniform...that is just BS!!!!

yea I don't want to hear how good he is when he has not even been pressured. In fact he missed some wide open receivers in the 1st quarter.
