Some of it was being a little off guard, but some of it was also just losing one-on-one battles. As they mentioned 50 times, the offense tries to set up one-on-one tackle situations and the Redskins were pretty bad at that early on.
does an almost comeback against a d that is projected bottom 5 in the nfl, and is in prevent defense, enough to suddenly think they're a playoff team? Give me a break.
Your team can only hope to cause you so much pleasure
He keeps fumbling, you leave him in.
I think the only 'really big' surprise was the Redskins lack of preparation. Chip stayed pretty close to his tried and true college style - wasn't like he came out with a completely different offense.
I think its also worth noting its their first game running this offense. Some of the protection breakdowns and mental errors should improve over time. Nice production putting up 33 in the first outing.
Helu is a very good pass blocker.....better option in OBVIOUS passing situations
There's plenty of offenses/QBs in the NFL who cant even exploit the prevent to the degree of what happened tonight. I also dont think Philly's D will be close to that bad this year. They'll be middle of the road, although if theyre winning by 20+ at the half every game, they probably will continue to give up a lot of yardage.
Yeah, plus I doubt we'll see another team crap the bed on O like the Skins did tonight in the first half. That was a comedy of errors that no one could have predicted. Any resemblance of their normal O and they control the clock a little more and give their D a chance to breathe and keep Eagles O on the bench. But it just avalanched on them. I don't think this game showed true representation of either team. Eagles are good on O, but not THAT good. Redskins aren't the class of the NFC, but they aren't THAT bad as they showed in first half.Doctor Detroit said:

The defense absolutely is. Baccari Rambo is a brushfire and sure to start all year.
I don't think there's any speculation about it. Until RG3 gets healthy, that's a 2 win team at most.
