Skins vs. Eagles Post-Game

In the third quarter, Silas Redd ran onto the field for a punt return, then ran back to the sideline in a panic. But he was the 11th player. The Redskins ended up fielding the punt with 10 men.

i missed that special team gem from yesterday...

Lots of reasons we lost. Special teams was a main culprit obviously.

But my issue yesterday was this. KC got us in position to win the game but when it counted he missed passes. The INT was ehhh...they happen. But he missed a couple throws that we really needed him to hit. I am afraid that is what he is as a QB.

Sweet!!

From Rich Tandler:

@Carolinadon09 hearing that they might bring up Chase Minnifield from the PS. Not sure if that's enough.

Man, people are touchy about the QB situation. As for me, I am grateful that we have two capable QB's.

To detractors:
I don't know what you're watching. He's been blitzed plenty and, for the most part, he's gotten the ball out quickly and made the Defense pay. I hope the Giants blitz. I think they'll get punished for it.

Some of his inaccurate passes had nothing to do with pressure.

I was watching the game where Cousins was 3 of 11 when rushed by 5.


And you don't think we'll get better in that area either?

I hope so. We should work on it for sure. As for "either," not sure what you are referring to.

IMO he missed passes early, too, but receivers bailed him out with fine catches. Near the end he missed so badly that he could not be bailed out.

Rather have Minnifield or Crawford. How about both and cut Porter who's wasting a roster spot.

I wouldn't mind having Crawford back, we need bodies for special teams.

Wow...I cant believe the negativity towards Cousins.
Did you see his stats FFS?
Did you want him to play corner and special teams too?

I was talking about that with a coworker today. I said really good QBs could play poorly for three quarters but when the game is on the line find the way to win. I am pleased with Cousins performance not sure he is ready to put the team on his shoulders in a difficult situation. We will see.

I like what Cousins was able to get done yesterday. He did a nice job for most of the game. But I do have to put some blame of him for the final drive (or lack there of). We needed 10 yards to have a chance to tie it. He did what he had to before that drive and got us a TD. The defense came through with a big stop to get the ball back with plenty of time and great field position. Cousins didn't look to have it in him to get the win or tie.

Could not have written it better myself
