Anyone notice the difference in playcalling today? REDSKINS football is back!

[NoCalMike]

Using the run to set up deep passing routes.

Either our coaches have absolutely NO CONFIDENCE in New Orleans pass defense, or Joe Gibbs has decided enough is enough and he is bringing back the offense we know and love......I LOVE THIS PLAYCALLING!

[Rdskn4Lyf21]

Yeah....JC is going deep over and over...sweet...

Good post NoCal...this is some fun stuff to watch.

They've been doing that for a couple of games now. The difference today is that they won.

This game proves that JC should have started the season.

Agreed. If we lost this game people would be complaining that we didnt run enough.

I think we could have run even more...and I really dont think we used the run to set up the pass much at all...not many 1st/2nd down playactions at all.

Not complaining just want to make sure we get thigns straight...thrilled about the win, GREAT to see the D step it up!

they got away from it in the third quarter and you see how that worked then lok at the 4th when they got back to it.

There are some plays that have Saunders fingerprints all over them. Anytime that the Redskins run outside or some wrinkle play, it just seems poorly designed. They did better running between the tackles today.

I think Betts runs better between the tackles, Portis was our Outside runner, both TJ and LB do not run well outside.

I was about to say the same thing. The 3rd quarter had me worried. But this time we made adjustments.

The best thing for me is that this kind of football certainly suits JC.

Runs up the middle work so well for this team

The combo of the power running game, and Al's passing offense can be deadly next year

[SkinsFanAnt]

Honestly, the stretching of the field was VERY refreshing to see. Other than that, the playcalling was ATROCIOUS past the 40 yd line. Someone else needs to call the plays and time manage the game. We were lucky to win that game with the gutless calling on 34th and short.

[TotalRecall]

There were a couple of questionable calls. But overall, I liked the play-calling. They mixed-it up pretty well. That run, run, then pass play-calling they have been doing was getting them killed!!!! I like how they tried to go deep several times, even on 1st down. I don't think the Saints defense expected Gibbs to go deep on 1st down.

The defensive play-calling still kinda sucks. They should have had more pressure on Drew Brees and should not have played so soft with the corners in coverage.

I wish Saunders could just stick with the program for the entire game. Once again he started with the sweeps; 3 back set; misdirection and other cutsey stuff. When gut and power is racking up 6+ yards per carry then just stick with it!

[redskin81]

Im still not sold on the red zone playcalling.

[NOVA2Tampa]

I liked it when we went WCO on the Saints in the 2nd quarter...too bad that NO challenge kinda killed the momentum...otherwise, I'm thinking we get a TD on that drive.
