[Andy Hicks]

Welcome to Week 3

Be descriptive of events on the field, but please remain within board guidelines.

This thread will be pinned once it's kickoff time

 

[fatness]

If Brunell stinks things up today the pressure next week in DC to start Campbell will be incredible.

 

[The Mechanic]

For all of us who drafted C. Portis early....this is the game we EXPECT BIG THINGS. Some sites ranked him VERY HIGH in the rankings, some even as #1 RB. Well, lets see if THEY knew what they were preaching. Pickng 12th in my league, with 10 RB's gone by the time it got to me I bit the nail and called his name.

Go Clinton GO!!

 

[Knightro]

Rock Cartright MVP of the team so far :(

Nice start....big runback but nullified with a holding call. Here comes the chuck and duck :(

 

[Knightro]

3rd and inches and the Texans line blew right through the line and dumped Portis for a 2 yrd loss.

1st 3 and out for the Texans D all year

 

[Knightro]

Skins pass D picks up right where it left off. Andre Johnson goes for 53 yards on a simple seam post.

 

[JZilla]

Skins blow. GDB playing against Carr this week. Here comes Dayne TD, I hope.

 

[fatness]

Portis stopped earlier on a 3rd down attempt, while Dayne later converted a 3rd down attempt.

The world has turned upside down.

 

[TankRizzo]

Gibbs doing his damndest to mask Brunell's deficiencies.

Texans just scored. Bruener TD.

How much do you want to bet they go run/run/pass for another 3 and out?

Brunell needs to go

 

[GreedoShotFirst]

I'm gonna be sick

 

[Knightro]

Mark Bruener just matched his career production.....

 

[JZilla]

For those keeping track, Gado was in the backfield for the TD play.

 

[JZilla]

Needless to say, the Wali Lundy era has most likely come to a close.

 

[fatness]

Local Redskin radio broadcast is here: Triple X Radio

 

[Knightro]

18 penalties on the skins so far this year...that is more penalties than complete passes. 2 guys hold on the kickoff return and they still don't et the ball out to the 20

 

[Knightro]

holy #####.....this is u-g-l-y so far. 4 runs...5 yds gained

 

[Knightro]

Brunell to Portis on a 74 yard shuffle pass....

 

[fatness]

Oh good. Here comes third and long for the Redskins again.

Hey Al Saunders, earn your money.

edit: and Portis goes for 7 million yards on a shovel pass.

 

[BigRed]

Portis you fn re-TAHRD. You had the WHOLE field to run past ONE more guy - with a blocker in tow no less - and what do you do? Run right towards him. Brilliant!

Edit: and now Betts gets the TD. Those who said he wouldn't lose TD carries to other RBs: bite me.

 

[MeVsMaradona]

Did he get outrun to the endzone?

 

[Knightro]

Betts finds the endzone while Portis was trying to catch his breath on the sideline

 

[MeVsMaradona]

TD Betts.

 

[JZilla]

TD Betts

whoever was supposed to block that guy on the Portis run ####### blew it. Not Portis' fault.

 

[fatness]

Good lord that looked easy. Betts TD.

Maybe the Redskin RB's are starting to figure out where the holes are.

 

[Eviloutsider]

Betts=Turner

 

[JZilla]

Did he get outrun to the endzone?

Nah the DB was waiting for him, not sure which WR that was who couldn't block him.

 

[Knightro]

Did he get outrun to the endzone?

No...one WR was blocking downfield...Portis went off the block to the right and the WR couldn't hold it...if he would have cut left he would have walked in. I've never seen a shuffle pass go for that many yards

 

[RKMoney]

Mario Williams was OWNED on that TD run by Betts. Wonder when this #1 overall pick will act like one.

 

[GreedoShotFirst]

that was a great block by Moss on the TD run.

 

[fatness]

Redskins have already equalled their offensive output for the first 2 games.

 

[MeVsMaradona]

Im a Portis owner,cant do anything about that. He had to get a breath.

 

[scott72]

TD Betts.

Dam mit...

 

[fatness]

Moss held the DB off for quite a few yards, but not enough for Portis to get the TD.

 

[Knightro]

He is acting like one.. KiJana Carter

 

[JZilla]

Moss held the DB off for quite a few yards, but not enough for Portis to get the TD.

Was that Moss?Maybe I'm just annoyed. Moss too small to hold someone off for too long. Should have kicked him in the nuts.

 

[fatness]

Ron Dayne busts one wide open for 1 yard.

 

[JZilla]

Dayne = speed

 

[fatness]

Moss held the DB off for quite a few yards, but not enough for Portis to get the TD.

Was that Moss?Maybe I'm just annoyed. Moss too small to hold someone off for too long. Should have kicked him in the nuts.

I think it was Moss, not really sure.

 

[Knightro]

I thought it was Lloyd on that downfield block rather than Moss

Yeah I think it was Lloyd. He was playing pattycake with that DB.

 

[fatness]

The Texans dust off the old fumble-the-snap trick followed by a sack

There's the Texans I know and love.

 

[TankRizzo]

Gee...I wonder if the redskins are trying to mask something?

 

[Knightro]

uh oh...Portis's shoulder is being tested on the sidelines :(

 

[JZilla]

####. Portis may be done.

 

[Brewdude]

Portis sitting this series out.

 

[fatness]

Portis getting his shoulder checked. Betts runs a nice toss sweep.

 

[Knightro]

they were doing one of those strength tests that the docs do to check if each arm has equal power. If there is a noticeable difference, they investigate further.

says the man who is having his second shoulder surgery in 4 years next week

 

[fatness]

Santana Moss makes himself invisible to a crowd of 7 tacklers and gains 11 yards.

 

[fatness]

Sorry to hear that, man.
