Posted at 8:29 PM ET, 08/16/2008Halftime Report

The first half was less than the kind of showcase for sharp, effective play that you'd expect to see at this point, at least from the offense. Defense played pretty well.

Here's a quick update:

Campbell 4 of 10 for 28 yards; Collins 7 of 11 for 45; Devine one pass, intercepted.

Betts, who suffered a mild knee strain, rushed six times for 34 yards. Cartwright had six carries for 90 (longest of 73) and caught three passes for 10 yards.

Sellers caught two passes for 15 yards, Moss one for 13 and Yoder 1 for 12.

Redskins converted one of six third downs; had nine first downs, 199 total yards, 126 rushing yards, 73 passing yards.

Jets converted one of seven third downs; had seven first downs; 110 total yards; 28 rushing yards and 82 passing yards. Favre, 5 of 6 for 48 and a TD.

Penalties

Redskins 3 for 30

Jets 3 for 22

Time of possession

Redskins 15:25

Jets 14:35

I'll feel more comfortable after they have an opportunity to do an MRI and it either comes up negative, or they decline to even bother. I just didn't like the way that that looked.

Noone has any other news on him

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Veron Fox has looked terrible tonight. Jackson with more pressure.

MRI couldn't happen until tomorrow. "Knee strain" is something I could have told you watching TV. Maybe that's all it is, but it just can't be taken as definitive as of yet.

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

CCF, thanks for the update ... keep 'em coming

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Would like to see Colt get some 2nd team work next week.

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Brooks with a 59 yard punt

 

[kawaihae]

Colt 4th QB off the bench. Any discussion of why, since he was 3rd the past two games?

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Man this game has gotten sloppy

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Colt 4th QB off the bench. Any discussion of why, since he was 3rd the past two games?

Zorn said he wanted to see him in a 2min offense. How he reacted in the 4th qrt. if they where behind

Did he face that situation yet? Hows he look?

 

[Ripleys]

man this has been one UGLY SLOW game.

just tossed the go ahead TD.looks okay

 

[LBH]

Ratliff looks pretty good so far

 

[Mr Capicollo]

Ratliff looks pretty good so far

I just picked him up off of waivers. Seriously. Not a bad grab and stash for dynasty.

 

[Mr Capicollo]

Defense might want to, I don't know, wrap up or something?

 

[Raider Nation]

Dear God... PLEASE no overtime. I want to see the start of the Minn/Balt replay on time at 10:30.

 

[Raider Nation]

 

[BigRed]

LOL

Nice 2d round pick spent on PK Nugent.

 

[buster c]

Man Genius?

 

[Raider Nation]

Man Genius?

How about the play before that? Nice to know you have receivers with no hands.That kid is already packing his bags as we speak.

 

[Nemesis Enforcer]

There is a God, no overtime

 

[Raider Nation]

my point is that you go for the win in preseason. playing for OT is chicken shick

Ehhh, I can see it. More of a chance to evaluate the young guys in a "pressure" situation.

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Well Zorn got what he wanted in Colt having a chance to drive for the win. Pretty sloppy game by both teams. Like I said earlier Fox looked terrible. And was the one beaten on the catch that luckily didn't happen.

 

[Raider Nation]

Anyone see Mangini's presser after the game?

When did he develop that pronounced lisp???

 

[Kinger]

There is a God, no overtime

I think he tried to hit the upright.

 

[Team Legacy]

It's pretty clear to me after watching 2 series...

Brett Favre will be a Top 10 QB in 2008.

I wish I was in your fantasy league. His Td pass beat Kareem Moore, a rookie Safety. Your playing against a vanilla def. Please stop drinking the kool aid buddy, its preseason.

um, on the play I saw... the ROOKIE TIGHT END, beat the rookie safety. Keep drafting those QBs early, while I load up and take #4 late and if you want to play in my league... go here... www.theffpc.com or here... www.wcoff.com or here... www.fantasyfootballchampionship.com

So were you play makes you the most informed peron on this board?

um, the guy said he wished he was in my league. I just told him where to find me, cool?Most of the guys that KNOW ME, know that my posting after Favre threw 5 passes was a joke. I can't help it if this riles up the kids on here.

 

[MSULions]

So Did Devin Thomas play? how did he look if so? Rooting for him to do well...

 

[Mr Capicollo]

So Did Devin Thomas play? how did he look if so? Rooting for him to do well...

He returned a couple of kicks, and had one target that I remember, a deep right sideline fade pass from Collins that was well covered and that he had to "defend" from being intercepted. Pretty quiet night for him, all in all, but he had a great week of practice and he's back out there, so we'll see.

 

[ATW22]

So Did Devin Thomas play? how did he look if so? Rooting for him to do well...

out of playing shape, gassed pretty quickly - 1 drop 0 catches

Also had the 15 yard flag on the punt that put the Jets inside our 50

Didn't check the rest of the thread so I don't know if anyone mentioned this during the game (I have several times on the board this off season): Tony Richardson makes a huge difference. I saw it several times last night, with the most pronounced being on an early 4th and inches he stuffed a linebacker. Everyone keeps talking about the additions to the O line, for good reason, but TR will - in my opinion - provide the biggest lift to the NYJ running game.
