Stop making sense, I like the "he choked" angle better. Clearly he's just a bad punter, even though he led the league in average last year.

Choke or not, he shanked that punt late in the game deep in our territory. Since he was asked to kick away from a dangerous return man and he hasn't had much in-game experience at directional punting, not to mention your irrelevant point that he led the league in average last season, is it then OK for him to shank one late in a close game? The correct answer is "Hell no!".

Bottom line: He ****ed up. I don't know why he shanked that punt but he definitely shanked it. Nobody punts the ball 27 yards or 17 yards or whatever the distance of that punt was on purpose.

He's a good punter. I never said he wasn't. You inferred that. His rare bad punt was just one example of a poor ST play. Nevertheless, my point is that we can't have people on ST continuing to make crucial mistakes if we're going to beat the Giants or anyone else.

No to either. They will be be inactive.

Sorry guys, it looks like Beason may play but Cruz and Rodgers-Cromartie are out.

You know things are good when our biggest discussion point/argument is whether or not out punter screwed up a punt in a win. HTTR

Agreed. That is part of the optimism that seems to be creeping in around the edges here. Players that we all agree should be gone, are actually, well... gone. And even if we don't all agree, say like Kai, the general flow is that underperformance, even if not killing the team, just won't be considered acceptable.

That makes the games more fun to watch, because everyone looks like they are supposed to be on a football field. I just hope the season continues this trend!

if their LT can't suit up, that'd make things much easier for our DL.

We need to pound Eli. He doesn't respond well to pressure. Plus, I don't like Eli. I'd love to see a sack-fest in the Giants backfield.

Mel Kiper made this comments about Terrance Plummer before the senior bowl, nice to hear.

On Terrance Plummer: Terrance Plummer, who is an overachieving middle linebacker, very productive, always around the ball, never on the ground. Interesting guy as a late round pick. I think Plummer all over the field in a number of games this year. The Missouri game was a game you look back at he looked like he could be a third or fourth round pick. But I think in the late rounds, Plummer would make a lot of sense. If he's not drafted, he could be a real steal at that point.

Redskins 28
Giants 13

MoJo combine for 175 yards and 3 TDs, and we force 2 TOs

I hope I am right.
