what happened with the challenged play(I'm not seeing the game)??

Brunell scrambled and then threw the ball, and when he threw it he was a yard beyond the line of scrimmage.

 

[jacksmack]

Man, Santana Moss seems alot better than Coles ever was. GB Vinny Cerrato.

He's been a consistent play each week. That's a heck of a lot more than I can of Stallworth, who was ranked higher than Moss in most rankings this week.

Is Al Wilson playing today? Not showing much stats yet...

Moss went to the U, Coles went to FSU - this should already have been a given

would've been nice to know if Novak nailed the 54 yarder before half - even though it would've been negated by penalty.these announcers are a bigger joke than these refs

Just like last week, I'm a huge Skins fan who can't see the game living here in NY, so any commentary is greatly appriciated.

[RoarinSonoran]

"Tuck rule" = no safety

The tuck rule strikes again.

 

[spacepimp]

Anyone seen MLB Al Wilson...ugh.

 

[Babu Bhatt]

Blocked kick.

 

[jwvdcw]

blocked FG?

 

[mrspree15]

Rackers would have kicked the ball through the Broncos player's chest and made the field goal.

 

[jwvdcw]

damn.

 

[Babu Bhatt]

Goodbye Anderson. Goodbye Redskins.

from anyone watching the game. Who is getting more carries bell or anderson?

 

[hammerva]

Thank god. Now maybe Redskins fans will go back to reality.

I see Bell with 6 attempts, Anderson with 8. Bell broke two for 50 yards a piece!

 

[Babu Bhatt]

2 long runs doesn't make them a bad team. Overall they've played even with the Broncos today.

 

[walnutz]

Thanks jack. Hoping this does not signal the end of Anderson.

Wash is no slouch on Run D either.

 

[J-Co]

Thanks jack. Hoping this does not signal the end of Anderson.

It's going to signal at least full-fleged RBBC for the near term, making Anderson unstartable. Wish I was able to trade him away. It wasn't from lack of trying.

bell has got 6 carries for 110 2 Tds anderson has got 8 carries for 27 yards

So you think neither will be startable now since it will be hard to predict?

 

[fatness]

Both Bell's long runs were on short yardage plays, too. He found openings outside, cut quicker than any defenders could on the wet field, and was gone each time. Good play call for the right player. Damn good job by Denver.Pains me to say that as a Skins fan, but give credit where credit is due.

 

[prosopis]

Is Rod Smith playing?

[BigActionMike]

well, that should spell the end of anderson's career... btw, the redskins are over-rated, they are getting spanked....

No RBBC in Denver. Never will be. Not Shanahan's style.The carries for Anderson and Bell have been misleading so far. Had Bell not ripped off 2 55 yard runs, you can assume that Anderson would have got a number of carries as the Broncos moved the ball down the field. Anderson has just lost carries because Bell scored from such a distance.

NOW, that's not to say that Bell won't supplant Anderson as the starter. And for those of us with both players, that would be a dream. But there's not going to be a RBBC in Denver.

Now Bell is back in. Wonder if we'll see any more Anderson tonight?

anyone start Bell today? I had to choose between Bell and Barlow with Holmes on a bye, I picked Bell

I gave it some thought, but went with Shipp against a tough Carolina run D.

Umpire looks BADLY hurt.

He got knocked down and the back of his head slammed into the ground. I bet he got knocked unconscious, probably a concussion.

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

Portis has put up decent numbers. How does he look?

Portis looks good, not great. Has learned to wait for blockers to create holes, and is hitting them a bit better today. Redskins running game still bogs down in short yardage, though.

 

[Brewdude]

Is Rod Smith playing?

Yes, he's been missed a couple times and even had a failed reverse pass play.ETA - It's cold and raining...miserable passing conditions.

 

[Brewdude]

Anyone notice the play with just over 1 min left in the 3rd when Bell slipped running left?Right after, Nalen walks back to Plummer, stands shoulder-pad-to-shoulder-pad with him. His back was to the camera, but he starts talking, looks at the Redskin D, then down to his hands. Plummer looks down. Made me LOL as it looked just like a playground move.
