Anybody heard a reason on why we went end zone instead of FG on that one drive?

I don't know that I saw Devin Thomas do anything extraordinarily more special today than in other games. The difference this time was that the ball was thrown in his direction on some key plays and he was able to contribute. Similarly, I realize that Cooley's injury opened up the opportunity for Fred Davis. But in the past, Cooley goes down or is out of the game whatever and those touches are usually going to someone like Betts.

It was nice to see both Thomas and Davis be a part of the offense tonight, a significant part. Sherm Lewis called the passing game today...so kudos to him for doing what Zorn hasn't consistently been able to do.

We really should activate Andre Woodson though, Campbell is one bad hit away from joining Cooley, Samuels, and Randy Thomas on the bench


Yeah I guess the positive wasnt so much Devin but actually getting the ball to Devin.

Which means if he's not doing anything particularly better then he should've been getting the ball a lot more before now.

Yep -- that certainly can have something to do with it. Zorn did say he ran most of Thomas' routes to open up other parts of the field, but JC still could hit the guy even if he's not the focus.

So Lewis called the passing game, Smith called the running game, and Zorn called the "hurry up" .. what a crazy way to do things.. wonder how Vinny and Danny take that

And yeah, Campbell's obviously playing hurt and whether he's with us or not next year we can't disregard that fact, or shouldn't at least.

Reminds me of 8:24 in this clip from Small Time Crooks

or who made the decision? I think that is an easy second guess. But had we been able to ... ... ... EXECUTE a simple snap, Gruden made it sound like a TD waiting to happen.

The whole D played well...minus 2 plays.

eliminate the turnovers and the Skins are right there.

I actually was excited for one of the first times all season at 17-7 until the worst PR in redskins history took a ball off the dome.

Hopefully that game ended ARE's punt returning days. They should have ended long ago.

Well it was the same play as the TD to Thomas earlier and Thomas was once again open. I'm guessing that Zorn made the call to go for it and I'm not sure whether he made that play call or Lewis.. as hesitant as Zorn has been with running successful plays more than once a game, I'd probably say Lewis.. but who knows.

I mean you wanna put the TD on, but we were down 17 and I'll take the guaranteed 3.

They put him back once more after Moss and Hall got a shot right? Well I guess Hall didn't really get a shot but yeah.

Speaking of Moss how scared is that guy to get hit? At least he slides better than JC. The second someone gets hands near him he tucks in and goes down.
