endotoothdoc Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Our defense has looked in control and played with violent aggression. I don't care if there was only one sack. The Skins played a more physical and intelligent football game. Excellent job at coaching up the players and motivating them to play at a top level.

RonArtest15 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Makes you realize how much of a dope haslett was. I know this is McCloughan's blueprint and to me, he and Barry have built a defense that has a nastiness/intensity like the 49ers did a few years back.

RedskinsLegacy Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I said in another thread, get rid of a bad coach, as we did, and look how good they can play under another coach. Have only given up 10 points per game, you can win football games when your defense plays this well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Agreed. i was way down on the hire, but so far, so good. Love the attitude, love the swarming tackling. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velocet Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Yeah you're damn right PROPS to Joe Barry. Ten points per week is a trend I can get with. All twisted up haters with agendas can just go turtle up and stay out of the way now. velocet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticksboi05 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Nice job by Scott to actually put some talent on that defensive roster and Barry for coaching them properly. Being rid of Haslett really does make Sundays better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I liked seeing preston smith out there trying to make plays. he looks like a big dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FivePointHammer Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Redemption must feel so good for him! Hey, and maybe Jay wasn't out of his mind hiring him after all! It also helps that Scotty Mac went out and remade the D-line. Goldson has been solid and they haven't been giving up as many big plays as we are accustomed to under Haslett. I do think Haslett had less talent, and certainly the cap penalty and RG3 trade greatly affected their ability to aquire talent, but he did have 5 years to show something and in that time I don't recall ever shutting someone out for an entire half.

Bacon Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 One more win than he got in 2008, so hopefully we can put that joke to bed. The secondary made an ugly gaffe or two, but otherwise I was very impressed. The Rams made the Legion of Boom look like a bunch of idiots, but we held them off.

FuriousD Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Kudos to SMac #1 for building a DLine worth talking about. Being able to bring pressure with only 4 makes a world of difference. Kudos to Barry for calling a great game. Haslett is now in the past. Can we leave him there? Fat chance, I know.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Probos Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 They've looked well prepared and have played well so far -- lets keep it up on Thursday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbunny Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 And the guy almost everyone wanted, and that preferred Chicago over us as now surrendered 79 points in 2 games. He must be second guessing his choice right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Gruden looks smart so far. Two nice defensive outings. Barry also had to overcome a pair of suspensions, a depleted secondary, and a surprise pass rusher going down for the season. Congrats on your first win as a DC Barry.

Commander PK Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 The defense looks vastly improved, no question. Hats off to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jflow78 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Joe's been a great surprise. He and Callahan both have their portions of the game plan looking pretty spotless. I've loved 90% of what the D has done, and the running game. Now, if we can get the ST to not be a complete liability, we might be a pretty great team.

Jacoah Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 This defense along with Callahan's O-line could make a huge difference for us this year. Wouldn't it be nice to beat the Giants on Thursday to send them to the cellar for a change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autoidiodyssey Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 We actually have a legit chance of having the #1 D after two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goskins10 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Glad to see Joe shutting up the haters!! I preached patience and give this guy a chance was called all kinds of names and told I was crazy (different conversation)! Hmmm!! All I can say is HTTR!!!

TK Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 It's not just Joe Barry. It's the talent that Scott brought in for him as well. Haz was awfull but he also didn't have half the talent that Scott brought in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hersh Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Maybe we should wait to give props until this team plays a team with a decent offense?? It's great so far, but we have played two mediocre offenses and that is being generous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlldaySkins Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Big props to Barry for coaching up this defense. Preston Smith is going to be a beast. Secondary looks much improved except it might be time for D. Hall to step aside. Robinson is taking over alongside with Kerrigan as the leader on defense.

It's great so far, but we have played two mediocre offenses and that is being generous. Maybe we should acknowledge the fact that last year this defense got shredded by said mediocre offenses, in fact some that were far worse than these first 2 weeks.
