Pages : [1] 2 Redskins8588 05-26-2005, 03:52 AM I get Sporting News in the mail and they have some good takes on teams in the NFL. They also are doing a review of each position for each team. Anyhow each week I will try to post what they say for those of us that do not get Sporting News. If anything it hopfully will shed some light on some stuff and give us something to talk about... From May 20th Issue... "The Redskins depth at saftey will give coordinator Greg Williams plenty of options. SS Matt Bowen was effective coming off the edge on blitzes and providing high-impact hits in run support last season. Ryan Clark was an excellent backup when Bowen was injured, showing great recognition skills and closing ability in run support..." Unit Analysis: Defensive Ends: Washington Redskins: "C - Starters Renaldo Wynn and Philp Daniels lack pure pass-rushing skills."

Ehh, what a bunch of mularkey.....they'll each post 15+ sacks. :biggthump FRPLG 05-26-2005, 09:16 AM Unit Analysis: Defensive Ends: Washington Redskins: "C - Starters Renaldo Wynn and Philp Daniels lack pure pass-rushing skills." Well I agree with this assessment but I think the grade leaves other factors out. We had probably the best pass-rushing back 7 in the league last year and that was without Lavar! They were expected to be storng against the run and use brute force to shrink the pocket. While they don't have anyone with great quickness and technique to get open looks at the QB they do have a slew of guys with tremendous strength that can win battles with o-line and cause pocket issues. I think that is more than adequate for their defense. Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor 05-26-2005, 09:52 AM look at the pats de they are not that fast ,well maybe seymour. i think it is just the schemes which allows the rush TheMalcolmConnection 05-26-2005, 09:55 AM I too, would like to see a better front pass rush. We DID get burned by some big plays last year. cough Cowboys cough Just an FYI, that will chap my ass til the day I die. RedskinRat 05-26-2005, 12:38 PM The Cowbitches game (last one of the year) was a sucker play, the d backs bit and paid for it. Pass rush wasn't strong then but i'm betting it'll be better this season. TheMalcolmConnection 05-26-2005, 12:52 PM Definitely. I want the game to be a blowout too... OR a heartbreaking loss for the Boys just like ours, twice. RedskinsJunkie 05-26-2005, 05:38 PM wE DO NEED SOME de TO GET A PASS RUSH... If we would have we wouldn't have to be so agressive using other players (CB) to get sacks and maybe a play like that Cowboy game wouldn't have happened... Daseal 05-26-2005, 06:56 PM The Cowboy play happened because for the first time all game we only rushed our line and gave Vinny too much time. DEs are expensive and hard to gauge in the draft. FRPLG explained perfectly what our lines job is and they do a great job of that! wolfeskins 05-26-2005, 09:15 PM I get Sporting News in the mail and they have some good takes on teams in the NFL.
