Ravens at Redskins Post Game Thread (RG3 MRI Result-Sprained Knee)

Maybe I should redirect the focus here to the penalties since I think these are causing us the 3rd and long situations that we are having problems converting.

The bottom line is why are you focusing on the offense at all? I think it is humming along just fine.

Well, scoring 18-20 a game when others dropped 30 on us got us to 5-11 or 6-12. Scoring the 30 has us at 7-6 and in the playoff hunt with 3 more games to play. Scoring 30 clearly means something when our defense is as bad as it is.

What? That's the point. If we're dropping 30 and the other team drops 31. What does that mean? Not only that the defense blows but the little things on the offensive side of the ball count as well.

You think leading the league in penalties is "humming along just fine"? Sure, it is when you are winning. How about that stretch when we played...

...yeah...

Let's be honest here. We are 2 lucky fumbles away from being 5-8 right now. How often are you going to have a ball bounce like it did to Morgan for a score? Six more inches on the Paul recovery and the Ravens seal that game. Luck has played a huge part in use being 7-6. Mind you, skill, talent, and coaching put them in the position to be here.

That can be said for a fair amount of teams actually. Plus, we are a couple of bounces or a controlling of a temper or two from being 9-4. The replacement refs make a good call and we are tied with Seattle. That entire argument can go both ways and doesnt prove much of anything. You are what your record says you are.

Your rite our offense sucks. Were lucky to be where were at. Because lucky bounces (like the one in the first quarter of sundays game for instance - never ever go the other way). Come on man!

You said that scoring 30 doesnt matter if the other teams score a lot on us. I say scoring 30 matters regardless of whether the defense sucks or not. A good offense will bring more wins than a bad one. So yes, scoring 30 matters, even if you lose some while doing so.

I don't think he went that far.. :Smoker:

You are clearly the only other person on here rite now who is not half in the bag. Lmao.

I consider being ranked in the top 1-3 of almost every offensive category and 7 in points scored HUMMING along - yes. Absolutely. Also you do realize that the defense is responsible for some flags too rite? After 20 year of almost pure unadulterated trash on offense we are suddenly one of the best youngest and brightest offenses in the league.

Well ... 3rd down conversions are about sustaining drives and eating clock.

Don't get me wrong... I love the quick strike nature of our offense. At the same time a long drive or three keeps our D off the field and that's got to be a good thing.
