Skins Bye Week, Mid Season Report

I think Garcon is underrated speed-wise. He certainly doesn't have much trouble pulling away from people after the catch.

Well, tough luck our opponent this week is The Bye. Nobody has ever defeated this opponent before!:cheeky:

Run game has been a disappointment as the season has worn on, BUT Jones and Chris Thompson have been good, contributing backs.

Reasons the running game suffered:

1. D coordinator are committing to stopping the run because they are comfortable with our limited passing game. We don't have speed with garçon and grant, so they don't have to play over the top.
2. Alfmo has not been good. You would think a power back would be a fit with Callahan, I'm a little lost.
3. Luavo injury hurt the run game. Our centers are effing terrible in the run game...Kory l was terrible, mcrib isn't much better.

I think my answer to help the run game...get d jax back healthy and make Matt jones the feature back with Chris Thompson getting an expanding role.

Alfmo has been indecisive and he seems to lack explosion. Maybe the former is causing the latter.

Redskins 56, Bye 0.

Redskins' Jackson, Kerrigan, Hall questionable Sunday vs. Patriots

I feel bad about Kerrigan, but it is honestly time to get rid of Jackson and Hall.

Hall, yes. Old as dirt.

Jackson?? Not old at all. Only if you can find me a threat to replace him with. Cap space is not a major constraint for us this offseason.

You need to be on the field to be a threat....

Respectfully disagree with a couple of points.

I think Long has been ok after the 1st game he started. Kory started against Miami and the Rams.

Carrier has been getting killed in the run game, although I thought he was serviceable last game. I'm still not sure McCoy should be on the field at all.

After week 2, everyone on here including me was singing the praises of Callahan. A few posters even called for him to replace Gruden.

Haven't seen a pro Callahan post since the week after the Rams game (I'm not saying one doesn't exist).

How much blame should he get? He got all the credit when it worked.

If not him, then who? Gruden, McVay?

OL, TE, WR, the RB themselves?

EDIT:

Nm, as soon as I posted I realized it's all Gruden's fault.

Kerrigan is questionable? The dude just had hand surgery. That seems like a given he's going to be out.

I could see him back by the Giants game.

Btw, Leonard Williams is tearing it up w the Jets. Scherff has been good, but I wonder how we'll look at this draft in a few years. Our Dline has sucked and really could've used Williams. I wonder if Williams+replacement-level-guard is better than Scherff and what we have... Time will tell.

I understand injuries, having blown out my ACL this summer, but honestly Jackson injury has lasted too long.
