Official game thread -- Washington at Jacksonville

the poor field position and the poor punting of 38 year old Bryan Barker is why you don't waste your early opportunities.

The Redskins were in Jags territory twice in the first half where they came away with ZERO points and instead of it being 17-7 or 14-7 it is only 7-7 and it appears the Skins will be down at the half.

Altogether not a smart half of football on offense. The defense has been reasonable solid, especially on the ground, but the offense got 18 yards on its last three drives.

That's not enough to feed even the smallest bulldog :mad:

well, if it's only 10-7 the Redskins can consider themselves lucky to have escaped at the end of the half.

Barker is a guy I still haven't forgiven for his refusal to go in and kickoff in the opener after Conway got hurt.

Those two poor punts in the second quarter were just more evidence that there is a reason you don't see many 38 year olds punting in the NFL.

But back to the offense. Spurrier has to realize that Matthews is still erractic on his throws and he is going to have to mix in more of the run and pick his spots.

Except for the first drive there wasn't a good mix in the first half.

Jacksonville is #26 against the run and yet the Skins are attacking their defense as if it is futile to run and passing the ball is the only way to move it on them.

Didn't anybody look at the Giants/Jags game from last week?

Exactly Bulldog, the Jags are the #11 ranked pass defense, which is pretty good, considering the Skins are only #14 against the pass with our all-world cornerbacks. That zone defense....sure levels the playing field.
