TeddyKGB Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I for one think that losing Springs this week yet regaining Rogers is almost a wash as most know that Rogers was coming on strong before he got hurt. With S. Taylor back as well for this game I look at it like we are stronger in our secondary for this game then we were the first time we played Tampa, plus with Cgriff and Daniels coming on we will be able to pressure Simms a lot more then our first game. I just don't understand why so many people are freaking out about it other then just a depth issue, especially Tampa fans. Also Ade "toast" Jimoh has actually played well when hes gotten a chance the last few games, with Pierson and Stoutmire also playing decent in patches. I feel much more confident about our Defense this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelvincent Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Pressure the QB and the CBs will be fine. Galloway won't be running free this week with ST back in the line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Washington Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 i am a little. i don't think they will beat us by throwing the ball all day. but they could move the ball in the air well enough to keep us honest. i really don't see either team putting on an offensive showcase. i expect both offenses to play it close early and hope their defense or special teams can make a play or shift field position. i think both teams think they can beat the other so no one is going to come out the bag unless there's a big momentum shift.

REDSKINS STOMP Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Sean Taylor playing will make a huge difference. So will Griffin. Bucs lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinSkins Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 The Big Dogs are healthy and hunting and Galloway et al know the Tarantula is back and lurking...could be some alligator wide receivers playing for the Bucs this time around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeddyKGB Posted January 6, 2006 Author Share Posted January 6, 2006 I just think if you notice that the last 2-3 weeks that springs has been hurt, he still plays well between 5-20 yards, but hes vunerable on the deep throws ( both of Browns TD's last week ). Last time we played then it was Ryan Clark's first game back and he pretty much had to anchor the deep secondary, I think now him being strong and ST being the beast that he is, I just think we have an answer for all the threats they have on offense. Rogers on Galloway, Harris/Jimoh on Sheppard/Hilliard Clark and LBs helping with Alex smith and their guy Edell and The Grim Reaper(#21) all over the field I feel real good, not even counting our front 4 penetrating. Only way I see us getting beat deep again is if Taylors coming on a blitz and he gets picked up leaving someone else in the deep zone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelarkascend1ng Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 maybe macmahon just played a decent game? people still don't acknowledge that maybe the eagles weren't as crappy as "we" thought they'd be. in any case, back to the CB situation. Jimoh has improved, Rogers is back, and between them, Sean Taylor being back (as opposed to the 1st Bucs game), and a healthy D line, I think we have a good shot and really messing with the Buc's rhythm on offense. again, it all comes back to whether or not you can pressure the qb. if you can't, you can expect to get beat in the passing game. someone mentioned this a while back, and i think it holds true - you could have a million darrell greens playing their best game, but if your D line can't get to the qb, you are eventually going to get beat.

Rooblakas Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hopefully, things will be OK in the secondary. I hope Walt Harris improves his game when we need it the most tomorrow in Tampa. Last time, he got often burned by the Tampa receivers, including Edell Shepherd for a TD. Honestly, I hope Walt plays better in this rematch playoff game against the Bucs.

TeddyKGB Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 McMahon mainly lit up Springs on the deep ball while he was limping half the game around. Like I said I feel better with a fully healthy Rogers then Springs having to take Cortisol Shots between plays. Suprisingly we started to totally shut down the philly offense when springs was finally out with jimoh and stoutmire in. Id rather have a 100% ok corner then a 55% great corner.

WinSkins Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Like our other fans have posted...it all starts up front and we are the healthiest...and hungriest there that we've been all year. Although Shawn was a warrior last week, you could see he just couldn't push off, cut or have any acceleration. I wasn't sold on him as a free agent but he's proved he's a real Redskin so we'll miss him if he can't play. Guys on the first two levels will need to step up! I can't wait til game time!!!

MustangSteve Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Only one who worries me is Walt Harris, if he would turn around and look for the dayum ball, the man could get 2 int's a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaddow Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Remember we felt this same way before the last Dallas game with Bledsoe looking good and at one point on Tues or Wed it looked like Harris, Rogers and Springs could be out. Turns out the D-line did well enough it didn't matter if the guys were a bit hobbled. Hopefully this week will be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballGuy2677 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Ill say this. Ryan Clark Sean Taylor Shawn Springs Carlos Rogers People think are secondary is weak, let them think that, we may not be the strongest secondary in the league but we dont give big play after big play up when they are all together. four top 10 drafted defensive backs in that secondary by the way including Walt Harris and i might be missing some others.

cjcdaman Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 So many of you guys said it, I didn't know who to quote. I think ST playing in this game unlike in the last one will make a huge difference. Hopefully Galloway comes across the middle and.....POP!!!!

Joey T Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Are you guys forgetting how Mike freakin' McMahon tore us apart for most of the game last week with Springs and Taylor? I think this was due to our D coaches underestimating McMahon. They adjusted in the second half, applied heat and the rest is history. If you recall, we played Simms way too soft in our regular season game and payed for it. Simms had only started several games and was in due to the injury to Greise(sp). I'm sure GW will take a different approach this time and pressure that creep(I call him creep just 'cause his daddy whipped us a couple times in important games) :laugh: In my opinion, the D and special teams sets the tempo. The O just picks up the scraps the D and ST has given us and takes it to the house. Field position is a monster, especially in playoff games. That being said, if we are behind in the final minutes of a half or the end of the game, that's where the O has to take over the game, drive the field and score. That's my :2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger187126 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Also Ade "toast" Jimoh . i prefer walt "toast" harris because if you do remember that's the reason the bucs even got a shot at that 2 point conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrockster21 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 I already debunked this myth in this thread. If I were a betting man, I would bet as much as I could afford to bet on the Skins this weekend. They will win, and will win big. Mark my words!

bulldog Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 this is Griffin's stage to prove to everyone he has been snubbed TWICE for the pro bowl at DT. this year the Skins are 0-3 with him out of the lineup. a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskins55 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Secondary will be fine IF we dont blitz 80% of the game like we did against Phily. I sware alot of those 3rd down conversions and long passes came only because we blitzed the corners and safeties and didnt get pressure quick enough to the QB. Tampa will max protect so we need to just beat somebody on the line and stop trying to outnumber them on the line by blitzing all the time. Blitzing 60% of the time this game is enough but we cant leave our corners ono islands as we did last game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
