Redskins vs. Jets Preseason game 3 - Gameday Thread

[SOUL-SKINS]

Alright, here is our biggest dress rehersal of the preseason. Little pissed about Mcnabb not playing but as many of you stated it will be good to see what Rex can do in case of another Mcnabb injury.

PS.
Anyone going to the game?
I'll be there to represent at the 50 behind the Skins bench.
HTTR!

Word.....seriously could use the playing time in game situations before the season starts.

Nah, I gave away the rest of my preseason games. Will be there week 1 though.

IF this team is as good as I BELIEVE they are...Rex will score on the Jets Defense at least twice. At least take the field down for 2 scores...TD and FG minimum before he comes out.

This is also assuming our O-line gives him protection as well.

Just PROMISE me..when he does...No "LETS Start REX" posts...

When you see this tonight..it will not be because of REX or because he knows the offense better than Mcnabb. It will be because we are better talently with aggressive QB's than with the 3 and out lets play not to lose and let the Defense win strategy...ok? (like we've seen forever)

You will know what I mean,when Rex moves the ball down the field,affectively against this jets team.

So you heard it here 1st...Rex will lead the team on 2 scoring drives...AT LEAST!

Lets kick butt!
HTTR!!

Ahh the blind homers. As for you signature, if "you know a good football team when you see it," what makes this team capable of winning 10 more games than last year? LOL. Come on.

I personally expect a slow, stinker of a game. Rex will have no Mike Sellers blocking for him, and Willie Parker is known for being a lousy pass blocker. Personally I don't care about Grossman's numbers in this game, I'll be happy if he gets out alive. That's Jets D is something special.

As for our defense, well the Jets are 31st in ypg during the first few preseason games, so I'd like to see us confuse turnover machine Sanchize and play well.

I'll be happy if our offense moves it, but I doubt it happens. My number one goal: an injury free night. September 12th looms large.

Well, we did pretty well in the air, we confused Sanchez, we forced some turnovers, and their D didn't look all that hard ass. Can't wait for Hard Knocks this Wednesday.

I will say at this point I'm very confident in Grossman as a backup. Odds are he'll start some games this year, and I'm okay with that.

I didn't notice any injuries of note for our guys either, which is really positive.

You forgot to mention Haynesworth lining up next to the Jets fullback all night.

I think it's wise for him to sit out, they said he probably wouldn't even play if it were a regular season game, so no need to push it for preseason.

The only thing that irritates me is that if Rex plays well against anyone tonight (they could 2nd or 3rd teamers) there will be former Colt Brennan fans clamoring for Rex to start.

Also: "Like a sprained ankle, boy, I ain't nothin to play with" -Drake...for some reason, that was first thing I thought when I read the bolded portion of your post...lol

Yep 7 P.M.

For all of those out of towners like myself, the game will be reaired at 2 P.M. on Saturday on the NFL Network.

Set those DVRs folks.

I think people know what we have in Rex. Even if he blows the doors off the place I doubt many are going to be clamoring for him to start. Of course there will always be a moron or two out there, but generally speaking I don't think anyone wants to see Rex starting.
