Monday 7/30: training camp tweets


Recommended Posts

I'm scared guys...Yeah the D looks great, but lets not kid ourselves, we aren't the best pass rushing team in the NFC East. I fear what the Giants, Eagles and Cowboys are going to do to our offensive line

And there are some bad OL in the league. The Skins QB's got sacked 41 times. Big Ben? 42 times

Aaron Rodgers? 41 times

I'm not worried about the Skins OL. No QB has forever too throw. And most of the time those sacks were on Rex. No pocket awareness at all!

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen

RGIII on the option: "Coach promised me he's not going to get me killed. We'll be smart." He said he'll do what he has to, to move the ball.

Mike Jones ‏@MikeJonesWaPo

Griffin said he's keeping tabs on his injured starting offensive linemen and wants them there, but trusts the backups as well.

John Keim ‏@john_keim

Griffin said he met @wale at the draft. "He's a really cool guy." Says hopefull get more celebs out here -- like K. Durant.

No they weren't. Grossman was sacked 26 times in 13 games. Beck was sacked 15 times in 3 games. Also Big Ben and Rodgers get sacked a lot because of how they play. They like to hold onto the ball and try and move around to buy more time for a WR to get open.

Most importantly, 10 of them were from a single game of Beck's ineptitude.

For Rex, 2 sacks a game isn't terrible. It's actually damn decent compared to what we had before.

For Beck, he sacked himself. I'm not saying all those sacks were solely his fault. But I'd say there were a decent amount of sacks that he took because he tries to pull the ball down and run, or he didn't get it out quick enough, or he just crumbled under the pressure. And those numbers are skewed by that Bills game. Any time a team gives up 10 sacks in a game, it's not just the o-line. Beck gave the Bills a few "gimmee" sacks in that game.

#Redskins HC Mike Shanahan says OG Kory Lichtensteiger had knee scoped, knee ligaments check out fine. Could be back in time for Colts game.

Grant Paulsen‏ @granthpaulsen

Mike Shanahan: Kory Lichtensteiger was sore and had an MRI, which showed particles. That's why he had the procedure. ACL/MCL are fine.

Disregard rumor of Raiders trade for Redskins' Chris Cooley. Not going to happen.
