Review: Redskins vs. Ravens

[That Guy]

mohr looked bad, rufus looked bad,
kol??? (TE) looked good, groom looked good...
farris looked ok, but he may not even make the PS and i'd be fine with that.
brown had a bad game, i'll give him a pass this time and send him to go catch balls all week.

I think rock and nemo both make it, they've both looked good all preseason, I can't see either one getting cut right now. white has also potentially cleared up a spot which helps.

Nemo has been one hell of a special teams tackler.

Actually Kozlowski could be the biggest benefactor of White's injury seeing that he's plays tight-end, but I wouldn't be suprised to see Gibbs use him at H-B as well.

The reality is that during this time of the year good players are released and find work elsewhere. Three ex-Skins under the Old Ball Coach's era: I. Ohalete,(sp) Sage Rosenfel, and Sulton McCollough could all get significant playing time with other teams this year.

not S. McC, he's like #4 on their depth chart and the 3 guys above him are all a good bit better. and i doubt sage see the field either... either way, the teams they've landed on are just terrible, so their careers are still on equivalent of NFL life support.

I wouldn't be suprised if Sage sees the field this year. But I do agree they all play for miserable teams. I think Iffy will get time in Cincy too.

If theres anything that Gibbs hates, its penalties and turnovers......and last night they didn't do a good job controlling those things.

The bright spots was our starting D, Brunell, O-line, and the reserve receivers (except for A.Brown.).

Did anyone notice all the tackles Nemo made on special teams? He had at least 3 nice tackles.

Yeah... I couldn't believe that many stupid penalites, especially the number in the first half. Hopefully Gibbs will get rid of these dumb players that don't know how to play smart at all....

I also can't believe how good Brunell is looking in all four games. I was a Ramsey fan for a long while but my gut tells me now that Brunell should be starting. He's throwing so accurate with so much zip on the ball whereas Ramsey seems to be still so inaccurate and throwing his balls so soft.

[That Guy]

yeah, iffy is the most likely, since he actually had SOME talent, but three teams in three years when he started the whole time is kinda a red flag.

And honestly, I really want to see Ramsey throwing a lot of intermediate passes where he can put zip on the ball and let our receivers run after the catch. Ramsey looks WAY more comfortable doing that and he's typically way more successful.

Exactly. For some reason Ramsey is throwing the ball so soft most of the time... like's he just wants to float the ball to the receiver instead of throwing the ball with some zip and authority. He's taking so much off the ball and that is why it seems to me that he has been underthrowing the receivers so badly on the longer passes. During the preseason, it seems to me that Brunell's passes are traveling twice as fast as Ramsey's... and much more accurate.
