I think jay and alex should be locked in a room together and not allowed out until they've gone thru every game he's play and come out with at least 20-30 plays that works best for him. He looks like just got dropped in jays lap, offense is not built around Alex at all. I sat on side on skins side of stadium and kept seeing Reed taken off field. Either lock him in there with him or put Kelce on back of his jersey. If you told me Reed would his current season total without missing a game, id think I was in the twilight zone. Healthy Reed should be straight feeding on people souls, wtf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As piss poor as Alex has played, I’d almost be more comfortable with him calling plays because he’d call Ines he’s comfortable with. 3 minutes ago, Renegade7 said: I sat on side on skins side of stadium and kept seeing Reed taken off field.

We always seem to come out flat against awful teams and inevitably play down to their level. We arent good enough to have a trap game. Trap games are for teams that feel good about how well they are playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAYBE it’s time to figure out how not to make that a tell. Gruden gets caught up with packages smd scheme and forgets flow and strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertbeagle85 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 As nice as this is, it's fools gold. The offense keeps disappearing and we sit on every lead we get. The defense played great today, but to be fair Dallas really doesn't have much other than Zeke. So what I'm saying we're good enough to beat bad to average teams. The win over Dallas always feels good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexa Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I think it's safe to say we're a very flawed 4-2 team. It's back to back games where we're won w/ the QB not passing for 200 yards and completing like 30 passes in two weeks. That isn't a winning formula in the current NFL. Also this game started to feel very similar to New Orleans last year. If we had a better coach and QB we wouldn't be sweating games like this.

hail2skins Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Prior to last season, Smith always has put up pedestrian stats. But he has also been on winning teams, primarily those with solid defenses, that just haven't been able to go very far in the playoffs. That's likely what we'd be faced with this season. So far I'm thrilled with our 4-2 record, but I don't think the Skins would prevail this season if they had to play either the Rams or the Vikings in the playoffs.

They couldn’t beat us last week, and got down 17-0 today until they made their comeback. They have flaws too at 4-2. Maybe what we need is next weekends game against the giants for our offense to gain some confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bknp7 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Alex is just not comfortable in the pocket. He is looking at the rush. Late in guys career this tends to happen. Remember what we went thru with Mark Brunel? Seems eerily similar . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may have had a point about them vacationing in the Bahamas after the huge JAX win. Somebody here said last week that they'd much rather play them after a big win like JAX, than after a huge loss, and have them come here desperate.

Conn Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 If there was ever a Redskins team in recent history that "deserved" the indulgence and risk of a trade deadline deal for a weapon on offense, it's this one. We could have had guys like Marquise Goodwin, Taylor Gabriel, or John Brown for very little in FA in recent years. I'd call the Bengals about John Ross now that Tyler Boyd has broken out, maybe. I'd keep in touch with the Raiders about Cooper. I'd explore other options as well. I'd also look at FS help. I'm usually against these types of moves because as a rational fan, I don't think we're one player away and I hate dealing draft picks. But it's do or die for Gruden. We dealt for and paid a 34 year old QB. Our defense is actually good. Our running game with AP is acceptable at worst, but as the season wears on and our other weapons scare no one I fear the running game gets bottled up. Add to that that we'll be getting a nice trove of compensatory picks for once...if there's ever been a time to deal some non-premium picks for talent to win now, it's this year. Even, again, acknowledging that I don't think it's our year. At some point you have to make moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Wow, they broke the trend and they won 2 in a row. Always sweeter, when it's against Dallas. Can it be 3 in a row? Will the team crash and lose to the Giants? This team is currently in 3rd place in the NFC. If that holds and we win the division, we are looking at either the second place North or South team probably. Good chance it would be a rematch of someone we have played this year. Despite are flaws and they are plenty, it's becoming clear; the division is ours for the taking. Will Gruden take advantage and have this team in the playoffs? Or is more jeckelll and hyde football in store for us? I honestly don't know what team will show up. 4-2 is nice but where does it go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
