Skins vs Texans Gameday Thread

The Redskins played more sloppy than you would expect an NFL team to look in the first pre season game.

More sloppy than you would expect most NFL teams to look like.

Tyler Polumbus can't block Watt and the team needs to hold into the ball. That's why we lost. Done deal

Bottom line Redskins beat themselves with mistakes (ST miscues, 2 fumbles in RZ and Rambo in coverage) and OL could not stop JJ Watt (who can?).

lol team is getting better, still a few players away. Much better then last years team, but still a lot of room for improvement.

Can we now stop fcking hailing rg3 skins fans?

What does that have to do with anything. No QB we put behind that line would have done a damn thing. Cousins would have thrown 3 picks

I don't think Griff played great, but he took a lot of nasty hits today.

He didn't play badly either

I tired of people saying "we didn't lose because of RG3." We didn't win because of him either.

Too many draft picks, too much hype, for not much on the field.

I don't think he was awful but he has a long ways to go. We have the speed at receiver, I don't understand having the guys just run short outs and curls.

Okay, stopped watching before the inevitable, was watching with my father-in-law, and it became apparent this was not going to be a good out come for the Skins. Once the punt was blocked, it was game over. Like many fans, I bought into the hype, that the Skins would beat the Texans, however, much like all of us were excited about going up against a 2-14 team from last year, we are the fellow bottom feeder, that other teams, or at least fans circle as a win. My expectations are muted, that game was very disappointing, the worst part of the lose are, poor special teams play, and again, the secondary giving up the big pass play. It is uncanny, how when a player like Bacarri Rambo is out on the field, the other team manages to exploit him for the ‘big play’, to quote ole’ Norv Turner. Not giving up on the season, but, this was like taking the ice bucket challenge in terms of cooling off expectations.
