Redskins vs Broncos Pre Game Thread

More shocked by losing by 28. Offense and deffense have improved, we are trending higher the last 3 weeks.

Our two wins have come against teams minus their starting QBs.

So if Manning were to get injured against us this Sunday, and we beat them with Brock Osweiler as their QB, we're a better team because we won against a team minus their best player? It's more like an asterisk win in my book.

LOL. This post. Do you think Ravens fans are sitting back discussing the validation of their Super Bowl win last year because they might have beaten a couple teams that were missing starters? No. At the end of the season, the only thing that will matter is the win-loss column. Nobody will care how you got it. And besides, Jay Cutler was looking pretty shitty when he was in there. His backup was the whole reason they were still in the game at the end. But either way, continue on about how it's not a valid win because we beat a team missing their starting qb for half the game.

More shocked by losing by 28. Offense and deffense have improved, we are trending higher the last 3 weeks.I said this in the other thread, but this team is about what I expected to be from scrimmage. The offense is not quite as good as last season, but the defense is just as good if not better. That Green Bay game looks pretty fluky given the other five.

The reason the Redskins are a struggling team is because the issue with special teams -- a lack of players who are comfortable playing in space -- is also seen throughout the roster in other situations. I don't expect to see the special teams improve a great deal, but I also don't expect to see a ton of big plays out of the offense nor do I think the defense can limit other team's big plays. All those problems stem from the same issue: this team doesn't have players who win in space.

But I agree that we've seen the defense (and offense) improve about as much as reasonably possible. We're not as bad as the stats look, but I also think that we're pretty maxed out in terms of performance of this roster. I don't like us to beat the Broncos, but I think it's an easy cover on a 13 point spread.

Our pass rush should show up this weekend , Denver is Minus their LT / C and maybe RT . No excuse for not putting some heat on Mr. Manning .

Rak and Kerrigan need to bring it this week.

^ as do Coefield and Riley

So tough with how quick Peyton gets the ball out of his hands. If Hall can continue to play like he has, we might be able to collapse the pocket before he can throw.

I'll die if we let PEYTON MANNING run on us.

I think offensively, we can score on them without much of a problem. I think we'll have Von Miller doing the D.Ware (running all over the place, not knowing where the ball is) with the read-option. If that's successful, we can score with them.

We beat a bears team minus their starting:

QB Cutler
DT Henry Melton
OLB Lance Briggs
MLB DJ Williams
CB Charles Tillman

And won in a shootout which still could have been won by the Bears had they of had 20 more seconds.

Thats all I'll say.

Man, I hate when these Cowboys fans just come around to talk sh*t.

Probably took you a while to come up with that dis.
