End of the fourth quarter, sure. Problem is, the Redskins did not have the ball at the end of the fourth quarter: Green Bay just ran out the clock on them.

As far as true garbage time, plays where the defense has no incentive to stop the first down because they want the clock to run, it's applicable to just one drive this year: the second TD drive to Hankerson against Philadelphia. But even that touchdown pass was thrown against a defensive call that should have defended it.

All analysis of the Redskins season needs to be aware of the fact that they've been playing from behind the entire time. But its easy to say that the defense is doing something different that leads to better results for the Redskins in the second half...when you don't actually check to make sure that's true.

It's a pretty ridiculous split, and I do think the Redskins offensive coaches are changing things up at the half (to adjust to the defense), but I think the things that the defenses are doing in the first half are close to what their doing in the second.
So the defenses are playing the same coverage looks, pressure schemes and blitz packages in both halfs? CB are not playing off guys giving them routes in the second half opposed to the first half? Safeties playing at the same depth?

The Eagles didnt go prevent?

Tripp I dont go back and look at tape, but it doesnt take a scientist to see whats going on. The numbers are there, disregard them if you want.
