Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

[4mrusmc]

Here is my take on the scrimmage: When it counted on the 11 on 11 we didn't look very good. On offense, we looked okay but, I expected to see a team that had something to prove from last years piss poor excuse for a football team. Yeah, we didn't have alot of starters on the both sides of the ball, but so did the ravens. This team still displayed no sense of urgency at all to try to impress the coaches or us fans for that matter. I must be honest, but our back-up quarterback situation scares the piss out of me. Our offense was "reset" at the 35 yard line several times because of the numerous 3 and outs. That was not good, and totally unacceptable. All in all, the offense looked the same as last year (that too is unacceptable). The defense looked good against the run, and when 3 down came calling, they could not stop the mighty ravens from moving the chains. The pass coverage simply sucked! Just like last year! We did have our starters back there and they could not stop their receivers from moving the chains. I think the ravens had two chances on offense, and they moved the ball (in the air) at will on us, and where able to get two scores on our allegedly improved secondary. What, are you kidding me?!?! I expected to see our D with this supposeded "chip" on it's shoulder. And again I was disappointed. To me, very few guys stood out, and were trying to make a positive impression. Next week I will expect to see more "fire and intensity" in our players. But, if it is the same CRAP that I saw yesterday, I will be thinkig twice if I actually invest my time and watch these games live. Pretty much most of last year I listened to the games on a Walkman, and I went through two of those when I would throw them across the yard and break them all up. Yes, I know I have some anger issues, and last year tested those issues to the extreme. Oh yeah, the pass rush also sucked, just like last year. But, anyway let's hope for a good year guys.

on defense.....daniels,griffin,carter,springs,smoot,r ogers and washington did not play during the 11 on 11 drills. plus they used landry at safety, he's still learning.
