Skins 23 Panthers 17 post game

Glad for the win, but we still suck with halftime adjustments.

They are yet to score ANY points in the 3rd quarter of a game this season!

From Rich Tandler for all the Alex Smith fans:


2. Alex Smith still sputters

While the Redskins started off well, Smith was erratic through the first half. He was good on 10 of 18 passes for 96 yards and two touchdowns. Smith certainly had his good moments, hitting receivers for some key first downs during the Redskins first-half scoring drives. He also had some passes that were way off the mark, even when he apparently had time to throw. Late in the first half the Redskins got good field position after a punt from deep in Panthers territory. But after an intentional grounding flag the Redskins were moved out of field goal range.

Smith continued to flounder in the second half. After the Redskins moved into Carolina territory with their first possession of the third quarter, he threw third-and fourth-down passes late and inaccurate. He did hit a few passes in the drive that sealed thegame for Washington but overall his day was spotty.

Any TDs that is. They did score 3 in the 3rd against the Colts.

That doesn't make it any better.

The reality is that the offense has yet to find its rhythm with any consistency, and as that goes, so do the team's up-and-down fortunes from week to week. We lost to the Colts because the O never got going; the Colts scored 21 but the D cannot be expected to do more when the O isn't holding up its end of the bargain.

The O was likewise terrible against the Saints -- not that the D was any better, but you have to keep the ball away from Brees and his playmakers to have a shot at winning. We didn't, and therefore we didn't.]

The Redskins have to get the O going against a strong Cowboys D. The Cowboys offense isn't scary (yesterday's beat down of Jax aside -- anther team whose O made it's D miserable) outside of Elliott. But if our O cannot do its job, keep the ball, score some points, and not force our D to win the game, we won't win. In fact, it might not be close. We win or lose every game by double digits it seems, and I see no reason why this week will be different. And the outcome will depend on which O shows up.

I cant believe I'm saying this, but we need Lauvao back. Bergstorm graded out terrible and per PFF he is now one of the worst Centers in the league.

We need to fix this shit first thing this offseason

That's like saying who would you rather sleep with, Rosie O'donnell or Oprah?

Yeah both of those guys aren't starters but we need 1 of them to be so we are screwed there

That doesn't make it any better.


No but it’s the truth

Roullier is a much better center than Bergstrom and Lauvao is better at LG than Roullier.
