Seriously...time to give him that extention and start the transition of TE1 Fred Davis, TE2 Cooley. We are rebuilding, Fred had a great camp and is moving into his prime. Note Im not calling for Cooley to be traded, cut or whatever.

Also, I can't see why we can't have both of them out there playing. I mean look at the Pats, they use their two TEs very well and both produced for the team last year. I'm just glad to see we have another weapon for Rexy.

Just curious, it shows that Gano missed a FG. how long was the attempt and what happened? is he reverting back to his old self again after winning the job?

39 yard attempt wide right. He just missed it. Good snap, good hold

Graham Gano is a choke artist -- I understand that he only had the one attempt but at this point, I think you may as well give the offense a chance to go for it if it is in the 25-35 yard range because the odds of converting are about as good as Gano making it.

One of the greatest live events I've ever been a part of... glad to get the W with a great 2nd half.

This.


Cooley looked slow as hell out there. Hell, it looked like the defender was running 3/4 speed on his coverage.

I don't know about the rest of you but I haven't felt this good about the redskins in a long time. Maybe since the last full season with norv turner as coach and brad Johnson at qb.

[warriorzpath]

I'll reserve my bitching and moaning when the redskins lose but for at least this week, I'm going to be enjoying this win against the giants.

I was surprised to see him out there. There's no way he's anywhere near 100%. He's just gutting it out.

Im feeling great about our Skins! It was nice to see them moving at NFL speed. We have lots to be optimistic about this season.

Final Thoughts (and I going to Bed!)

Good-

Hightower: Since being traded he's come focused and ready to be a featured back. Even with shity line play, he runs hard, which is all you can ask of a RB

Grossman: I'll be willing to bet none of us thought he'd break 300 yds and have 2 tds 2 weeks ago. Even with being pressured like hell, he mostly stood in the pocket, took a hit a got up. Don't think Beck would've had the accuracy to through the fade to AA, slant to Gaffney, and some passes to Moss and Davis

Kick Off and Punt Coverages: It's great to have a punter who can finally put the ball inside the 20 80% of the time. I don't think we let their PR get more than 10 yards on a return, and Gano's strong leg on Kickoffs are an asset.

Atogwe: He's not Sean Taylor, but he's the best FS we've had in 4 years since his passing. Didn't get beat, filled his gaps, and made the right reads. Hopefully Arizona will be the last week of Doughty.

Bad-

Reed Doughty: What he lacks in coverage, he makes up with tackling and run support. Yes he gets beat, but he's a smart football player, whose just not athletic to be a full time starter. When LL comes back, how Doughty plays won't matter

O-Line: Touched on it in other threads. This unit HAS TO and MUST improve if we want to even THINK about a playoff run. You just can't get pushed back on stretch plays, run plays and sweeps. Our Pass Pro SUCKS!!! (As of 9/11/11) Both OT's struggle against speedy edge rushers and get beat BAD on stunts and double moves. Always thought Chris Chester was a backup, NOT A STARTER. Montgomery wasn't bad and neither was Kory L.

Ugly:

Good Jesus Man T. Williams!!!THAT WAS HORRIBLE!!! Extremely Pathetic. If you're drafted #4, as an OT, you just have to play better than that. If my daughter, whose 3, watching the game says, "Daddy that's bad" when watching you bite SO HARD on a double move from Pierre-Paul, and not even get a hand up; it's down right bad. No Excuse

With all that said, WE WON against our Rival. And that's all that matters!

HTTR!!

[CultBrennan59]

Trent Williams still played better than Jammal Brown. I felt like everytime I watched Grossman get pressured or sacked, it was from the right side of the line, particularly Jammal Browns man.

[Kindoy]

Hightower mentioned in an interview that the team was given monday off for the win and the team didn't want it, that's frickin awesome. there's something different about this years team attitude wise.
