I heard a report that Bubba Tyer said he's never had to deal with this injury in his 37 years in the NFL. But, once they heard about Taylor's issue, they starting researching it. He wouldn't name the player, but Tyer said one LB had the same thing happen last year and only missed one week.
Totally different passes, especially the WR screen. That's run off of a three step drop and rifled to Moss on a line from 20+ yards away. The TE screen is more similar, but you've got a bigger target; also, frequently the RB screens are thrown with the RB on the move, maybe even with his back to the QB so that a lot of touch needs to be used to get the pass over the onrushing DL's, but softly into the hands of the RB (who may also be in traffic). It's a tough throw, but I also don't think they've tended to execute the blocking of it very well either.
OK, let me rephrase some things a little.It seems (and I could be really wrong) that other teams have run the RB screen with more success than we have and it seems (again, could be wrong) that we run the WR and TE screens with more success than most of the league. So, it's not really a comparison between our WR screen and our RB screen, rather our WR screen vs other WR screens and our RB screen vs. other RB screens.
Got it, and yes, I agree with you. I frankly can't remember a 'Skins team that has ever run a RB screen well. It's never been our bread and butter, and Gibbs I never ran screens.
I'm still trying to figure out "how the hell did they DO that?"
But you're right, there were missed opportunities in the game and they have to learn to take advantage of them better than that. In close games when they're not playing well they'll need to cash in everything they can to win.They completely outplayed Dallas today on both sides of the ball. The defense was very good, and the offense had a bunch of long scoring drives. I love long scoring drives, they demoralize the other team. And it looks like we have a real coach.
Why are you in our forum, after we just defeated you on your home turf?????? GTFO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then Romo throws 3 INts. to lose in the 1st rd.
Several players were going out due to the humidity. I'm assuming that's what was causing it with Portis. I noticed it also, also saw his legs buckle on one run. But he kept going, you've got to give him credit.I think that's the first time he went over 100 yards in Dallas.
When the tequila runs out I'm putting down the trumpet and coming down from this tree. To get more tequila.
The game was played TODAY.
yea tru. i would have thought they were used to the heat after that new orleans game! but yea, maybe im just selfish because i want him on the field every play! nevertheless, great game. THe offense is learning quicker than i expected. any updates on springs?
Imagine the pressure the Eagles feel, being the only NFC East team without 3 wins at the moment.
Prediction: Only one team will do it, and the team that goes 4-2 in the division wins it.Imagine the pressure the Eagles feel, being the only NFC East team without 3 wins at the moment.
Classy as ever, Mr. Banker.The rematch in Landover will be very interesting indeed...On to Philly!
He had a nice catch on their last drive.
Thanks! Classic NFC East matchup...you just never know. You didn't have to come in this thread and make any remarks, but you did and I like your approach.
As I mentioned previously, I always find it odd that a the home team doesn't appear to have a real advantage when they play.
No keep it that way. we're 3-0 with it that way.
I'm amazed at how fast the team has gelled offensively. Campbell was lights out good today, and his command of the offense looks better every week. The most encouraging thing is that the Redskins looked like the far more physical team on the field -- both sides of the ball.
Lavar was ragging on TO on the Comcast postgame show. TO also said something being held a lot by the DBs. Lavar just kept saying in a whiny voice, "Aww, they're holding her. She's being held and can't get catches."
He's the Patrick Crayton of our defense.All talk...no action."Let teams stick around"? He's acting like they had the game won.
This one is for you Springs 
"Let teams stick around"? He's acting like they had the game won.
