Anyone see the scrimmage?

Just wondering if anyone was there--how did things look? I know it's only the first scrimmage--and given how short a time we've been in camp, we were bound to look bad against a great D like the jailbirds--but I'd love to hear some eyewitness accounts.

PS: Whatever happened, remember--it's a month until the season. This was really just a chance to get some real hitting in, and to evaluate some new faces. Also, Ramsey is going to take some time, as is the O-line, even in the best circumstances. KEEP THE FAITH!

I didn't see the game, but I heard we didn't look that good. The offensive line wasn't playing well and ramsey didn't do that good either. I did hear that the defense looked good though, except for ade jimoh

They have tons of stuff about it here.

just got back, i have lost some faith in ramsey.... but its early..... also wouldn't be surprised to see a. brown jump in front of jacobs for that third WR spot.

Looks like we didn't do to hot on offense, but the D was all over, Taylor showed up ... what sucks is Jacobs hurt his toe, and needs an MRI ...

Me and Vishsskins went today, we went early into the A gate and sat 7 rows from the field. It was amazing because that was the redskins sid and we were CENTER 50 yard line. We could see all of the faces of the players and toward the end we walked up to the front, we got about 1 foot away from sean taylor, he actually signed a lot of stuff, he actually took my football and put on a table of things he was gonna sign and picked mine up and right before he started he got called back to the field. I didn't mind to much and told it was ok, he said sorry but i was so exited to meet him that i didn't get upset, but by FAR Ryan Clark signed more than anyone he actually signed after the game and waited as long as he possibly could.,

During the game our Defense in my opinion didn't play anywhere near the way they played last year. Springs didn't go on during the scrimmage but was talking to the players with the headset, Taylor was pushed to the second string and Bowen played later also. Taylor played very well though.

BY FAR the best player at the game was non other than ANTONIO BROWN. The first play was a practice special teams play and antonio destroyed. he took it back and was touched after about 30 yards, and they stopped the play after he was touched. during the game he got more receptions that anyone else BY FAR, now i know what gibbs and CO. is talking about. I can't wait to see him during the year.

TAYLOR JACOBS GOT HURT, HE WAS BEING BANDAGED ABOUT 10 Feet in front of us. then i was in denile and kept saying he is ok he is ok. but then he got up and lymped and the trainers got him a cart to take him off the field.

Our offense looked good besides for one position. QB- i was extremely disappointed with Ramsey and Brunnel, Campbell however played pretty well.
I got to see shotgun and me and vish were really loud, we yelled out SHotgun, and some raven fans got upset, it was third and 10 Ramsey hit a receiver(i think patten) with a 14 yard first down conversion

One great thing i saw was CHRIS McCallister gave MOSS about 12 yards of cushion. I yelled out look at that cushion and the second the play was hiked PAt hit moss with an 8 yarder.

after the game i knew where the players lot was, me and vishskins waited for a few minutes with about 6 redskin fans. The Ravens had a different place to wait for their players, THE FIRST PLAYER WE SAW WAS CLINTON PORTIS. I thought i had lost my mind. I looked at him comming by and yelled out CLINTON CLINTON. He came over and signed a football and chuckled as i told said "You're getting 17 hundred yards right" I patted him on the back and said thanks, he blew VIshskins off, Vish was hurt but got to tap him on the back as he left.

We then met John hall( he had a ice pack on), hawkins, Rabach, Ramsey(who was really nice), Salavea(me and Vish got to talk to him because we recognized him immediatly, we told him to stay healthy and have an amazing year, he was the only player who seemed to care about what the we had to say, many others started to have to rush to get everyone signed). We got RIch Parson and a couple others.
From what i heard Lavar and samuels ran by and didn't sign much. Ray Brown just shook hands, and Jon Janson was about to sign our stuff and the police motorcycles were comming and he said he had to go and ran off.

All in all i missed the end but we were definatly getting beat, Antonio Brown played AMAZING.

Thanks for the report, BigSKIN. Only the first scrimmage, so we've got some time to get things right. Have faith, it will come.

Too bad about Jacobs--that guy just isn't durable. Sounds like Antonio is a keeper. Also good to hear about Taylor. The kid loves to play ball.

Also, it seems that we never really even tried to run the ball. Remember, Portis is our best player on offense, pretty much. That will help everything on offense.

good to hear about antonio brown

I've heard alot of people were dissapointed with Ramsey today. All I've heard out of camp was that he was tearing up, so its a little dissapointing. Still, we've been in camp about 5 days, so I'm not that worried at all about Patrick. If he is doing poorly in the final preseasoner against Baltimore, then I'll worry. From what I heard he started out really poorly and improved towards the end of the game. I'm excited to see the Carolina game. Hopefully everything will come together.


BTW; Did Portis play today?

I was there and I was so disappointed. I was hoping to see a change in the offense. Nothing but the same thing as last year. 5 yard curls and screens. Antonio Brown looked extremely good. Blazing speed and made some nice sharp cuts. Portis did not play at all. For all you D. McCants fans out there some bad news. He only played 2nd team special teams. I saw Chris Cooley walking off the field and I yelled Warpath.net, don't know if he heard though lol. One thing I was impressed with was the amount of people that were there. They said 35,000 for a scrimmage is amazing. Also, Ray Lewis proved to me again how awesome he is. He had at least 12 tackles, 3 sacks and had a pick, rediculous. Our middle linebacker position looked a little suspect. No one really grabbed my attention there. I know its early, but was maybe hoping to see someone shine a bit. That's bout it from my point of view.
