now that was the LINE

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Guess we won't be hearing RGIII say that games are easier than practice this week.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

They are playing 8 in the box and sending 6 or 7 on every play. NO time for play fakes, unless you want RG3 killed. Its time to line up in the shotgun and get them out of the 8 man box. Spread them out damn Shanny!

[quote=CrustyRedskin;931650]Id keep the 1st teamers in there the whole fn game.[/quote]

Not with that injury bug going around. Hell no, get all the starters out.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Just want to point something out here. Reports have said time and time again that RG3 is holding onto the ball to long. After 1 quarter the Bears have 3 sacks on 5 passing plays. Not saying that RG3 is going to be a bust or won't improve on this but I think it goes to show we shouldn't be so quick to dismiss warning signs.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Sometimes it's about seeing what plays work and don't work and sometimes it's the coaching staff putting the players in difficult situations on purpose to see how they handle it.

Especially the defensive plays. Maybe offensively they are trying to get Paul to show something or end up cutting him since he didn't show much as a WR.

good because that was so STUPID

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

And there goes another great play by our special teams....

There's going to be ups and downs this season, we are just going to have to be patient with the downs. He is a rookie after all.

Great point...and keep in mind, he has been taking a ton of snaps under center which is somewhat new for him

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Good point DB

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

where were the safteys?...that 8 yard gain was 0

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

We got lucky with that bomb. Look at the time Cutler has in that pocket. Pass rush??

He looks bad against a strong pass rush. I would see how he does out of the shotgun if he continues to struggle I hope that they don't wait too long like Campbell before deciding "this guy doesn't have it".

How long of a leash do you truly give a talented guy like RG3? Do you keep him in the whole season if he is sucking and hope he improves, or do you maybe bench him if we get out of playoff contention and see if some time on the sidelines would help him? Not hating here on RG3 by any means, just hoping we do things better with him than we did with J.C., by that i mean leaving him in when he shouldn't have been starting anymore...

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

This is a clinic

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

This is probably the best thing to happen to the team during preseason (injuries notwithstanding).

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

[quote=skinsnut;931669]This is a clinic[/quote]If it lights a fire under everybody's hiney, good. I feel like we were getting entirely too complacent, and we haven't done anything yet.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

While it is rough in spots I am glad we are having a game like this. Reminds us what we need to do. Just hope Rack will be okay that would really suck.

This is his 2nd preseason game, it is going to take time, probably a whole season to get comfortable. To answer your question RG3 will get a while before he just tossed aside like campbell, we mortgaged the future for him.

Dude hasn't even played two full quarters. Are you serious?

He has no leash....

Uh. 20 plays in preseason aint much of a leash to already be comparing him to Jason Campbell...sheesh, have a brew!

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

We still have another year yet to get things really in gear. While I think we will improve we will go 6-10 or 7-9, I am on the fence.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

i swear to god we never have a DB that can catch other than hall

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Guys, it is preseason! Cam looked terrible last year during preseason..... Give it time!

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Its all Kyle Shanahans fault.

The very best thing. Couldn't ask for a better way for the skins management (Shanahan) to figure out that the OL is the weakest part of this team

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

guys slow down on the BUST talk already lol.. Griff is the real deal, just be patient.

yep

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Horrible call. That's on Garçon.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Second game of pre-season. You know what that means?

Knee jerk reaction time! RGIII sucks! Our running game is horrible! Bench Garcon! Our secondary blows! Trade D. Hall! (Okay maybe that ones not knee jerk)

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

We got lucky on that PI call. That was a hell of a bomb though.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

that was a bad call on chi lol

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

nice rollout and throw by rg3 there

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

And our line is hot garbage the next play

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

I cannot believe I already read a post about how long do we give him. First quarter of his second PRESEASON game. Sweet lord. Jason Campbell??? Really? How many snaps did Jason take for Mike, Bruce or Kyle??? 2ND PRESEASON GAME.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

garcon may catch 100 balls this year

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

I haven't seen that much speed at the QB position in DC, ever. It's kinda strange.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

Great run by RG3 after nothing's open.

Re: Redskins - Bears gameday thread.
 

woooo our boy is FAST!!
