Alex will finish with 20 Pass Tds most likely and around 5 Ints, that is very good IMO. Dude just plays smart football and doesn't put us in bad situations
Not to bring this up -- but I think those were RGIII's rookie #s exactly. Enough to make the playoffs.

Per Keim
"Skins are not likely to make a move"
So no CB or WR help coming as of now
That’s ok, Trey Quinn should be back this week.

I have called for running the ball for a long time because it’s the primary reason why teams win and go far in the playoffs...I love it. It’s redskins football.
The issue is Alex Smith the last several years has been a very good qb...and Jay Gruden offense in the last couple year is known for have a good passing scheme. So to watch the qb play this year has been disappointing. Especially when I heard Alex is the best deep ball passer and was great in the red zone. He has time to throw the ball, protection isn’t an issue. It would be nice to have a middle and deep range passing attack...we have opportunities bc defense are creeping and going single high safety against us.
I want to see steps...I think Jay needs to look at the play action game...execution and scheme. RPO execution, can we get better opportunities? Maybe add a burner WR to help open up the down field opportunities.
I’m offering solutions...to say, “this is the Alex we envisioned” is simply dishonest.I agree this is not the Alex we envisioned, but to hope that he was going to reproduce last year's deep ball productivity is delusional IMO.
Give me the efficient short passing game version of Alex Smith right now and this team is virtually unstoppable, don't try to turn him into something he's not.

Mason Foster could be the most underrated LB in footballI don't know about THE most in football, but I've been saying for several seasons Mason doesn't get the love he deserves. He's not fast but he's a solid tackler, covers pretty well and is one hell of a tough mofo!
Sometimes it seems he just lacks that killer instinct, but you need that kind of players on your football team, not making mistakes and doing their job ultra consistently.

Thank god for ap and a legit Oline
Our defense played their ass off...game ball to them. And it was a complete defensive effort.
Alex smith is garbage...the excuses are gone folks. Giants defense is not good...he had more than enough time to throw. He gotten much more protection and has had more weapons THIS year than Cousins ever had last year...Cousins is head and fuckin shoulders better than Alex.
Anyone who said Alex was a comp and better...get the fuck out
Hearing a lot of comparisons to this team right now and the Ravens when they had Trent Dilfer. I'll take it, because we're winning, and that cures everything. But at the end of the day we have a pedestrian QB. Smith is going to have to put up some numbers soon. If we make the playoffs, we won't be able to run AP 200 yards every game from now until then. Smith needs to produce more. But i agree with you. Kind of crazy all the people on here who said Smith was comparable / improvement over Cousins.
Edit: I want to point out that i think we can win football games with Alex Smith, because he is a game manager and doesn't turn over the football. He's a smart guy, and he just plays his guts out. I am holding out hope for year 2 to see if he improves with us.

Gruden is 5-0 when playing with a lead this year. I think he gets the concept of game control. But that leaves us fans nailbiting all game long.
(he's also 0-2 when he doesn't take the initial lead)
I did not know that. I understand jumping out to a lead and than controlling possession and playing D. Im not expecting him to just chuck away (especially with our current passing offense) but a second half touchdown would be completely acceptable. [emoji2]

It is ok to talk about RG 3 again, just not Cousins. [emoji23]

Let me be one of the first then, because I've been saying it for years. I like the burgundy on gold look.
