Chris Neild is a solid NT. But with Chris Baker, I don't think Neild is missed all of that much.

I would also add the colts and pats and packers to teams that won superbowls because of their offenses in recent history. However they were probably all better than ours - they certainly had playmakers that we dont. That being said i feel like there is a team mentality that has come over these guys because of RG-3 on offense and Fletch on defense. Did you see Kerrigan and the other guys faces when Fletch was giving his post game speech. Hes almost a player coach and I think he has them inspired. We will get CG back for the playoffs. I just have a feeling we are starting to roll at the rite time. A blowout win in one of the next two weeks will cement that feeling. I think its going to be Sunday.
Edit: i meant their defenses had playmakers that ours dont.

Look at Some of our best players so far.

Griff
Morris
Cobra Kai
And yes cousins because of yesterday!

All rookies.

Forbath is technically a second year player. That being said, we need young players to step up on defense, just like young players have stepped on offense.

I miss Dexter Manley the most.

And Charles Mann. Seriously, Neild was better than Baker and Jenkins, I'm waiting for Jenkins to start producing (he had a nice play for a loss yesterday).

As far as DTs go, Dave Butz set the standard.

Mann and Manley! Awesome. I had to listen to the game on sirius yesterday - of course it had to end like that - talk about suspense. But it sounded like early on Jenkins was not doing well and than came on late. I sure thought he was going to be a sweet pick after his rookie preseason Hes technically a rookie so ill give him till next year to start producing. The way i remember it with Nield is he was sort of trending down before he got injured. Am i off on that?

With Jenkins injury he probably shouldn't be expected to be back to his old form till next year. It takes a year to recover, give or take. He is improving now which makes me think he just needed a little more time to regain his strength and quickness. Next year, look out. Unfortunately, Carriker and Neild may be in that boat next year.

That's what I'm hoping with Jenkins, and I see improvement too. He showed some real burst and agility a few times against Baltimore.

Keeping with the oline I noticed Kerrigan playing DE a few downs the last two weeks maybe...? Can't remember seeing that before?

Anyway, I think Kerrigan can play either position.

i know every athlete is different, and i hope jenkins shows improvement, but look at adrian peterson.

jenkins did his in preseason
peterson did his in december?

Yes but ypa is the real true measuring stick on run D. Teams dont run for alot of yards on us because they pass all day long. When they do run we are not getting gashed though. Unless you want to get into stuff like - well if they kept running the ball we would get worn down and the ypa would go up. Teams do abandon the run when they play us.

I think you can make the case either way. If a team were to start running, and we can pull our linebackers into the box, then I think we can shut down the run, but we are so afraid of deep passes/tight end screens that we aren't aggressive against the run. Without research, I would use the Tampa game as one I think would bear that out.

Good point. Either way we need some dang dbacks. Lol

Ton of comments on this thread and admittedly, I have not read them all, so I apologize if this is redundant. The Redskins-Ravens game had everything! Games like this one are the reason why fans so love the NFL. This game will sell tickest to future games, and will improve TV ratings of future games, and sell SundayTicket packages. This Redskin win is why we watch. We want to see our team do something special against playoff caliber teams.

I texted some of my Redskin buddies after the game and told them that this might just be the best regular season NFL game that I have ever seen, or at least remember, since my viewing covers a lot of ground (back to 1955).

When writers recall the current segment of Redskins history in future years, this game will be prominently discussed. The drama was compelling. The Redskins started fast, faded, and then made a dramatic comeback! Mix in the injury to our superstar, his heroic effort to re-enter the game, and then the touch that Redskin fans have loved forever & a day, the backup QB enters to save the day. What a script - Hollywood could not have done better.

A great game, great win, and a great day! What next, Phoenix rises from the ashes? Absolutely!

Completely agree, amazing win. Best game i have seen since the game winning FG was blocked by Shawn Springs then returned by Sean Taylor to set up our own game winning FG.

It would be even more amazing if Kirk C starts this week and wins against Cleveland to keep all the hard work of everyone continuing to pay off.
Cleveland is going to be tough.
