Bang Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Running the ball, OK, I'll buy it. We can maul. pass blocking,, sorry,, i don't agree. Robert can throw sooner, sure, but he has not got much time before people are in his lap. His pocket is usually a dogpile. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor703 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This is why I pay absolutely no attention to PFF. If you ever needed evidence to why that site is a joke the ranking of the Redskins OL is an prime example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I found this hard to digest after the indigestion from watching actually games, it was like eating ice cream cake after having grazed on snacks and then chowing down on Prime Rib. It might taste good later, but right now I want to barf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD Riggo Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I don't see it this year! We're occasionally very good on the run. But they are responsible for '3 just about getting killed many times this season. Honestly, I don't even know if they are in the top half as a unit. They at the very least are terribly inconsistent this season! Summary: They’ve given RG3 plenty of time and have that zone blocking scheme opening big cutback lanes. Special credit to Tyler Polumbus who has really stepped it up. Here is where I suspect that the writer has a crack addiction. "They've given RG3 plenty of time." Really?!! AND It speaks for the continuity of the outfit that the end product is often so good. DUDE! We're 3-7! N.O.T.H.I.N.G. is "so good!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluefood Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 They’ve given RG3 plenty of time Alright, this is where I call shenanigans. Yes, a case can be made that RGIII is holding on to the ball too long, but in every gave I've watched, there are defensive linemen and linebackers in the backfield as soon as the snap is made. There is no way this O-Line is even close to being in the top 10, much less the top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you care about our team? Umm no. Griffin is a phenemonal talent. I've praised him more than many of the knee jerk 'fans' on here. The Skins are an interesting team atm, i was just sharing what a respected and popular website says about your O-Line and thought it would sour some discussion.

The Skins are an interesting team atm, i was just sharing what a respected and popular website says about your O-Line and thought it would sour some discussion. "Almost as if Griffin hurt his progression and transition to a pocket passer by running the ball so much, almost as if running the ball too much results in injuries and inconsistency.... hmmmm Have fun fellas, you jeopordized the future of your quarterback and your only chance for sustained success by focusing too much on his rookie year accomplishments, your QB has missed out on vital first year progress. And some people here honestly need a reality check, you really want to bench him? do you really have a Nick Foles sitting on that bench? is this the sample you're going to use to punish this man? 10 or so games in his second season when he had you DROOLING only 11 games ago? Griffin isn't some 'prospect' you dump after a ****ty season, he's NOT disposable - you literally leveraged your entire future on this proven Pro Bowler and you abandon him when he doesn't drag the baggage of years of mismanagement, the loss (via the trade) of multiple starting players and a generally awful football team to the playoffs? He's not Andrew Luck you know..." Troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I was pretty fair tbh RG3 is trying to transition into more like Aaron Rodgers this season when he could've done the transition (and perhaps sacrificed a playoff birth) in his rookie year. I don't think it's his fault or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squatch66 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I'm sure I'm just piling on that poor dead horse but too many times this season I've seen defenders come right through Monty to RG3. Guy has no room to step up into the pocket. I agree that run blocking is good but our pass pro is pretty suspect from every spot except for LT. Definitely not 4th in the NFL good.

NickyJ Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I think they forgot that offensive linemen are supposed to keep the defenders AWAY from the QB, not push them into him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Bang is right, they are good in the run game. They are also good on screens and roll outs. They just cannot hold the center on drop back passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHardSkinsfanNJ Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I wonder how often Griffin has called the wrong protection and made the line appear worse than it really is. Wish I knew but if thats the case , he needs to let go of the ball and if hes calling more the wrong thing get it together before he gets himself hurt and i dont know what kind of slide hes doing but he needs to correct it before they give him another concussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heathen Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This article is hilarious, but I know some people think we have a pretty good OL and I always want to ask- based on what? Our run game? Do you know WHY everyone always comments that Morris is spectacular in his ability to run through contact? BECAUSE HE'S GETTING HIT AT THE LOS CONSTANTLY. Honestly if Morris wasn't such a beast at breaking that first tackle our rushing stats would be much worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Exactly what is the benefit of Mike's ZBS, racking up tons of yards and being listed in the league leaders on offense, when we cannot run for 1 yard when needed, and struggle to pass even when having established the run, and utilizing play action? Yes running does help ball control, milking the clock, but it seems to also limit us, make us one dimensional. I for one hate that we cannot run for one yard up the gut. No QB sneaks are even tried. Kyle has finally started using the FB to pound it some, and has gotten a little better. I also hate that we cannot prevent the pocket collapsing on almost every passing play. Being a great run team, but one that cannot run for one yard, just makes me want to step back and re-evaluate just how great a run team we really are. Of course being a long time skins fan, I see the benefit of being able to run for one yard. Its in my DNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
