    Both Jackson & Garcon entered this season in contract years. Fans had expected at least one of them to put up huge numbers this year, even in an Offense that is stacked with other weapons like Reed, Crowder, & recently IR'd first round Draft pick Doctson. While it's seemed like neither has had their number called very much. Jackson had his biggest game in Week 3 against the Giants. Jackson caught 5 of 8 targets for 96 yards & a touchdown.

    photo by TK
    Garcon's biggest game isn't as black & white to pick out. He caught 5 of 7 for 59 yards in the same game against the Giants. Against the Ravens he was 5 out of 7 for 56 yards & his only touchdown of the season. Though his most yardage came against the Eagles catching 54.5% of his targets (6 of 11) for 77 yards. Only against the Steelers did he catch everything thrown his way going 6 for 6 for 51 yards.

    After all of that & seven games later they're evenly matched. Jackson has been targeted 49 times, made 27 catches for 318 yards & 1 touchdown. Garcon has been  targeted 48 times, made 30 catches for 329 yards & 1 touchdown.

    Big Game Hunting

    By TK,

    Greetings Humaniods.
    This week we're in either Motown, Detroit Rock City, or the Motor City depending on your tastes.  Today your 4-2 Washington Redskins, Defenders of the NFC East come to town to bag the 3-3 Detroit Lions. Unfortunately, due to the airlines moving my flight back tonight up two hours, this will probably be short, sweet, & incomplete as there's a travel delay warning from road construction back to the airport as well. So my halftime adjustment will be getting out of downtown Detroit so I can make it home tonight. 
     
    TARGET ACQUIRED 

     

    ANNOUNCEMENT OF INACTIVES
     
    DETROIT – The Washington Redskins have announced the following inactives and lineup changes for today’s game against the Detroit Lions:
     
    The Redskins declared the following players as inactive: 
    o   No. 2 QB Nate Sudfeld
    o   No. 19 WR Rashad Ross
    o   No. 35 CB Dashaun Phillips
    o   No. 45 S Josh Evans
    o   No. 60 OL Vinston Painter
    o   No. 72 DE Anthony Lanier II
    o   No. 86 TE Jordan Reed
     
    No. 85 Vernon Davis is expected to start in place of Reed at tight end.
     

     
    The biggest shocker there is Harris is active at WR at expense of Ross. Harris was activated from the Practice Squad earlier this week.
    Based off of the analysis & stats I had posted earlier this week here on the Blog, I expect the Lions to come out trying to establish the run while mixing in a few short passes on 2nd down or 3rd & long situations. They don't really throw deep a lot with Megatron retired nowadays. And they really haven't been able to get Golden Tate going out of the stable. 
     
    Today, I'm expecting a win. And I'm expecting Cousins to ball the eff out here in front of his friends & family. Don't get me wrong, I'm not fully sipping the Kool Aide yet. But I am close. A win here today will having me taking another swig of it though. Also, making their undefeated on the road return are the Championship White jersey & Burgundy pant combo. 

     
    And now, here's some words from Murf.

    Why We Will Win

    By TK,

    This is simple. They can't even manage to tp the team hotel correctly. 
     

     
    One strand. Are you kidding me? And it looks like they even used paper towels instead of toilet paper. Clearly Screaming A called the wrong fan base losers.

    So about this hotel...

    By TK,

    Murf & I arrived here at the hotel a few hours ago. We immediately noticed this one was a bit different then what we've grown accustomed to. No, it wasn't smooth sailing at check as that never happens. Today's check in didn't have Murf down to be in the room. Usually that happens to me. I suggested the chick at the front desk just check me in & hand me an extra room key. I think that was to much for her to process. She still had to check with someone. Anyways, we finally got checked in & headed to the room to drop off our gear before heading out for a couple of breweries. 
    Stepping off the elevator we're greeted by a framed & autographed Marino jersey. OK. That's different. Especially considering we're nowhere near Miami. Then there's an Ali picture hanging in the hallway. Makes sense with Joe Louis Areana being here. Then there's some some more Ali pics up, a Randy Moss signed Vikings jersey, a Joe Namath autographed photo & well, see for yourself. There's just a really cool sports vibe to this floor. I might have to start up a GoFundMe for the Ali/Beatles pic.

    Lets take a look at the run/pass selection by Down & yards to go. It was bad enough after the Steelers game, but now the scales are tipped WAY out of balance. I haven't looked it up but damn if this doesn't make me wonder if the Rams "Greatest Show On Turf" years passed this much. looking at these breakdowns, you'd think this was from a Madden season & not an actual NFL team. I'm curious to see this weekend if the Giants stack the box only when it's 1st & 6-10 to go as that's the only dominate time the Redskins seem to ever run the ball.

    With tomorrow's first Divisional match-up against Dallas, I wanted to take a look a few things & see if anything stood out. Going by the stats from Week 1, here's what I think I'm thinking.
    First thing that stood out is that Witten continues to be a QBs best receiving weapon. Followed by Beasley. And Dez? Last week he was at the bottom of their receiving list, with 1 pass out of 5 for a whopping 8 yards, only beating out the RBs. Take a look.
    DAL - RECEIVING TAR NO YDS AVG LG TD J.Witten 14 9 66 7.3 17 0 C.Beasley 12 8 65 8.1 15 0 T.Williams 4 3 34 11.3 14 0 G.Swaim 1 1 21 21.0 21 0 B.Butler 2 1 16 16.0 16 0 L.Dunbar 2 1 16 16.0 16 0 D.Bryant 5 1 8 8.0 8 0 E.Elliott 2 1 1 1.0 1 0 A.Morris 1 0 0 -- 0 0 Going by these stats from last week, I think Witten will continue to be a match up problem for us tomorrow. I also think that Beasley & Williams will have trouble with Norman & Breeland, whether one is assigned to cover the same guy all game or just a side of the field all game. In past match-ups, Breeland has owned Dez and Dez is no A. Brown. Dallas should have a hard time passing on us tomorrow.
    Speaking of passing, there's not that much film on Prescott yet. That said, he's still a Fourth Round picked Rookie & last week against the Giants, he played like it. The thing that stood out to me watching him last week (for perspective though I was watching 3 different games at once) his footwork is atrocious. He does that same RG3 thing where he'll pass while in the air after completely leaving the ground. Though Prescott's playing behind perhaps the best Offensive Line in the League, he gets the time to at least find & dump it off to Witten. Still though, his numbers last week were pretty pedestrian. The decent thing was putting up over 200 yards passing with no INTs, 
    DAL - PASSING ATT CMP CMP% YDS YD/AT SK/YD TD LG INT RT D.Prescott 45 25 55.6 227 5 0/0 0 21 0 69.4  
    They also protected him by only having him run twice. For 12 yards. And that brings me to their rushing attack here:
    DAL - RUSHING ATT YDS AVG LG TD E.Elliott 20 51 2.6 8 1 A.Morris 7 35 5.0 13 0 D.Prescott 2 12 6.0 11 0 K.Smith 1 3 3.0 3 0 A first round pick in Elliot averaged 2.6 yards a carry. I don't think that's going to get it done in the NFL. Though he did score their only touchdown, so he's got that. Morris in limited action clearly was able to run better though. I think I wouldn't be surprised if Dallas actually featured Morris against us tomorrow, at least for quarter. Averaging 5 yards a carry is what gets it done in the NFL so Elliot should be taking notes when Alf is in. 
    So with 101 yards rushing & 227 yards passing they proved they can move the ball with a rookie QB & RB. Tomorrow should prove different though. I think they'll struggle to complete passes over 12-15 yards but get the dump off, underneath stuff to Witten. And they'll have success in the run game, especially if they feature Morris, but I doubt Jerruh would allow the rubbing that salt in the wound move instead of showing off his shiny new first round pick in Elliot. 
    Anyways, that's what I'm think I'm thinking. 
    I think.
    Agree? Disagree? Sound off in the comments below, but one thing I know is
