Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

So I finally watched the game last night. Wow is all I can say about Robert. That was not all him I. The victory though, Cundiff going 4-4, the defense creating key pressures and turnovers on the Saints, and spectacular play by our WRs and the new RB all contributed to getting our big win. Total team effort led by a real QB.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

I think everyone played well, so all around kudos. I'd like to see the team complete more 3rd and short situations, I think we missed a lot of opportunities. Also, I'd like to see RG3 run a little less, otherwise he's going to get hurt.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

One thought that came to me throughout the game was "Wow, this is what an NFL offense is supposed to look like".

Griffin played obviously ridiculously good.

So did Cedric Griffin!(well just good)

Our DL was getting great pressure up the middle.

Garcon, if he stays healthy, can be better than what Santana was in his first year with us.

Our secondary played decent, showed obvious weaknesses, but held up against drew brees.

Madieu Williams is a 10 year vet, he should know how to locate a ball by now.

Sucks that Bernsteins hurt, he was good depth. Who was the safety we had in preseason that was challenging for a roster spot? We should consider resigning him or looking at some safeties as depth on the market (Charlie Peprah, Nick Collins, Atogwe)

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

Madieu Williams is a 10-year vet, he should know how to not commit pass interference. Williams is not going to be able to defend many WRs one-on-one...b/c he's a 10 year veteran and old. Hopefully we can find a safety or the Redskins figure out how to make sure he is not a liability.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

My initial thought, did that really just happen?

I'm still in a daze.

Picked a bad week to start betting again. LOL Just so you will know my charity at the end of the month is Edmark so you will know each week you lose they win.

As far as the win I'm not surprised at all we beat the Saints. I said all along that we had not seen anything through preseason of what RGII was going to do on the field. I liked how they started him off with the safe plays then worked things down field. Only gripe I would have beside the blocked punt was the play call got a little to conservative toward the end of the game.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

The pass pro was actually really good. Even Tyler P. had a solid game.

Other than RG3's stat line, he looked really prepared and had a comfortable command of the offense the entire time. Even he throws a clunker next week, you know this kid is special.

On defense, I think Bowen and Kerrigan had the best games. Bowen could break out this year. With the swatted passes he's reminding of Too Tall Jones.

Even Brandon Banks had a spark and you can tell his head was into the game.

Bad QBs = bad O line. The perceived issues with the O-line have been greatly exaggerated, in my opinion.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

Griffin obviously played great and our guys stepped up when it mattered. Only thing that matters is 1-0. Kudos to great game planning by Kyle today, and especially to our defense for holding down the Saints.

I do not care to mention anything about the special teams because my respect for Nick Sundberg increased after I learned he broke his arm on the blocked punt. That's very tough to do and I'm not going to fault him for the mishaps because we have no backup long snapper on the roster. And Billy Cundiff was great, not just on kicks but on kickoffs as well. Very solid win today and we can't ask for more than that.

Re: Redskins at Saints Post Game Thoughts

Just an amazing win.

The Good:

1. MVP of the game: RG3. I cant believe how accurate he is with the ball.
2. Kyle's playcalling, very very smart the opening drive with the screen passes to get RG3 in a rhythm and gain confidence. Aggressive playcalling just through off the Saints' D all game.
3. Alfmo, just a tough runner. Id like to see Helu in a little more for a stronger "change of pace."
4. Secondary played damn well. I thought Josh Wilson, D Hall and Gomes all came with very strong games. C Griff made some plays as well. Gomes was a surprise on just how well he came in and played.
5. Bowen, Rak and Kerrigan all came with very strong games today
6. Robinson. Its so important when guys go down someone can step in and produce. Dude came in and was out there making plays. Thats just so big imo. Same goes with Gomes. I think this is positive proof that Shanny and Bruce has grown the Skins the right way. Gomes and Robinson are quality depth, that is still developing into potential starters. This is the right way to create a team.
7. Cundiff had a huge game

Bad (nothing much)

1. I personally dont like running RG3 more than 4-5 times a game. He ran 10 times, I want to limit RG3 exposure to hits.
2. WTF is up with the special team's punt protection and sloppiness? Lets hope this is just a one game thing.
