macs-a-skins-fan Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 The defense is only "good" in the games where opponent's time of possession is less than or equal to 26:00. Any more than that, and its reliability begins to falter. Agreed, but not always necessarily the truth either. But still a good point!:point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Even though it is technically within the character limits, I will honor your request. Thanks---I thought there was a height limit, even if you skipped lines and left them blank (10 lines, I thought) If I'm wrong and you can produce evidence of that, I'll rescind the request. From my count of the 10 line rule, you could probably take out the turnovers are killer, bring up the other text---or delete the shakespeare or matt flynn? Then it should be in limits.

Nah, I think you're right. I might as well downsize, since I block out the sigs when browsing anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanyt Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I'm quite disappointed with our d-line. Haynesworth is drawing double teams and blowing up the middle, but it seems like no one else even gives a ****. How the **** are they able to double Haynesworth and still block everyone else perfectly. Doesn't make sense to me. No Doubt. It's too bad we didn't use our first rd. pick for a Defensive Lineman...

IbleedBnG83 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Worried about our defense who has given up only a touchdown a game and a total of 23 points to one of the best teams in the league? No, i'm not worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 the only problem with our D is Blache and he aint going anywhere so there is nothing to get worried about. If he bends over and lets the Lions take the lead, its exactly his plan. Look for huge cushions in their opening drive and no blitzing. When they get into FG range, we will blitz. If they get within the 20, then we will move up the corners. Book it Danno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Wu Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 23 points? JC singlehandedly gave them at least 10 of those. But that one tD they did give up to the Giants was hilariously bad, and should count for two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I makes perfect sense to me ..Your best pass rusher on the team is playing SAM :doh:.........But When Rak has a good game against the Lions fans on here will say he is better of playing at SAM position....

MrJL Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 13th in sacks20th in ints our 2 worst areas last year, and $150 million spent. i think the defense gets too much of a pass. if it's still like that at the end of the year sure. It's still early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 the defense was 4th last year, and theyve given up 24 points in two games, for a total of 12 points per game. how are they the problem? yeah they sometimes get burned on 3rd downs, theyre not a perfect D. we'd be a pure bottom feeder if not for their performance. were lucky to have a D this good.

bikie Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 very interesting article about our D last year (don't know if it has been posted here before) and possible implications this year... some interesting stats on 3-and-outs on the opponents initial drive (which we led the league in) versus forcing 4th down on subsequent drives... http://redskinshogheaven.com/2009/08/defense-watch-redskins-are-overcoming-long-odds-with-talent.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrfriedm Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 There are a lot of problems with the secondary, however; the offensive problems over shadow them by so much that its hard to get to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speardog1 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this but the Rams would not have scored at all if Steven Jackson didn't have that long run. At least I think I'm remembering it correctly. Wasn't it like a 64 yarder that set them up to score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsFTW Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 If our offense would score some points our defense would dominate. Just like it did to end 2005. Go check the stats. Daniels becoming a sack master? Multiple turnover games? WTF? Until then our defense is going to continue to play both the pass and the run.

Chachie Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 They held Brandon Jacobs to under 50 (I think) and despite Jackson's 100 (he's a lot better than Jacobs) they stopped St. Louis when they had to. I am a bit befuddled at the continued lack of QB sacks, which is one thing we were led to believe would change right away this season. It's early for Fat Albert and Orakpo though so I'm willing to still expect some. I do think Daniels is better for the run than Orakpo but our d-line lacks the speed that modern d-lines bring w/o Brian in that spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 The special teams stinks too. But yea, the defense is definitely worrisome, but holding St Louis to 7 points isnt that bad lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger187126 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 so.... how bout that defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirClintonPortis Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Matthew Stafford carved them up. Also, them being too tired is a load of bull. They were playing BETTER when they were gassed than when they were in the 1st half....Of course, if Kevin Smith actually stayed in the game, it would have even been more ugly.

Destino Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Unless you happen to be the colts, you're offense isn't going to score much if you don't get them the ball... the lions scored on three drives in which they started inside their 15. The QB that had 5 picks and one TD looked like an allstar. They ran for about 100 yards in the first half. The defense is absolutely terrible. Worst skins defense I've seen in years and the worst part about it is that they are gutless. They play prevent the entire game with 10 yard cushions and are scared to blitz or pressure the passer.

MdMack21 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS D!!...We are too soft out there, and i feel that we are not dictating anything. We just lay off and hope to break up the play..or the Qb makes a miss read. We need to get rid of Daniels and all of those old guys, and get the young blood in there.
