Skins/Vikings post game thread

it's how Jenn Sterger got famous and piad so.... i'm sure she'd welcome it.

Florida State's girls are nowhere near as classy as Redskins ladies.

Just compare the fashion choices at the games.

I like the name Landover Leap.

I also liked how the O adjusted to Minn's D as well. I was worried in the first Q but when the team turned it around and marched up the field, at will, I'm convinced the offense is for real.

Holding Minnesota to FGs inside the redzone was crucial. The defense stepped up when they had too. Coach Haz deserves credit for figuring things out and using different players in different situations. Coach Haz's full usage of the defensive personnel to cause the effect that it did shows how great of a d coordinator he is.

btw the end zone girl is from southern md, la plata to be exact

when rg3 was in the tunnel she told him she wanted one right there and he just smiled.. Obviously delivered

here's a better "face" shot for you all

Updated "Rookie Report" from Pro Football Focus:

Washington Redskins

Robert Griffin III, QB

Draft: First round, second overall

Snaps/Usage: Starting QB

Notes: Our current leader in the Race for the Rookie of the Year, Griffin has showed the potential that made him the second overall pick in the draft. Though he is our current leader in accuracy % at 82.0%, the Redskins have been extremely conservative with Griffin who has attempted only eight passes beyond 20 yards. He’s shown the ability to move the ball with his legs (+3.3 Run), but after leaving last week’s game with a concussion, we see the risk involved with a scrambling franchise quarterback. At some point, Griffin will have to rely less on his legs and make a few more downfield throws from the pocket in order to stay healthy and productive.

Alfred Morris, RB

Draft: Sixth round, 173rd overall

Snaps/Usage: Top RB since Week 1

Notes: Head Coach Mike Shanahan’s reputation for finding ‘plug-and-play’ running backs is firmly intact thanks to Morris’ strong start to his career. The zone blocking scheme is still a Redskins staple, but new looks from pistol sets, as well as the threat of Griffin as a runner have helped the scheme evolve. Morris has steadily improved throughout the season, and he’s now fifth in the league with 491 rushing yards and second with 17 missed tackles forced. He sits atop the leader board in yards after contact/attempt (2.97), while boasting our second-highest elusive rating at 52.4. When you add it all up, it looks as if Shanahan has found himself another late-round steal.

Other Redskins rookies: Fourth-round LB Keenan Robinson has seen the field for ONLY seven snaps and he’s yet to record a tackle on special teams (-2.0). A much-criticized selection, fourth-round QB Kirk Cousins was drafted to back up Griffin. He saw his first action last week, completing five of nine passes for 113 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. While he made a couple of impressive throws, he reminded us of his rookie status by throwing a ball right into CB Dunta Robinson’s hands late in the fourth quarter. Seventh round CB Richard Crawford has earned more playing time in recent weeks, spending 85 of his 110 snaps covering the slot. Opposing quarterbacks have a QB Rating of 133.7 throwing into his coverage.

This has got to change and hopfully Kyle will open things up in the passing game. It's not like he can't make the throws cause he did it in college.

I think that's a bit misleading because yeah.. He doesn't throw 20 yard passes, but he's throwing a lot of 14-18 yard passes

The Redskins entire defense slapped Adrian Peterson. Slapped him for well under 100 yards rushing.

Excellent! :)

I say open up passing when it is a good strategy. Do what works and keep winning. "Common Sense". Bleep theoretical football. beep beep.
