Redskin Football

I'm not old!!!

I'm not old!!!

LOL! One thing I find interesting is that alot of people say we're attacking more than what we have this season. What exactly are we doing different? We're still running the ball on first and second down. We're still using that little WR screen pass that people hate to see. We're still dumping the ball off to Cooley or Robert Royal. Could it possibly be that the players are executing and playing mistake free football? Take away at least half of those turnovers we committed earlier this season, and the Redskins would have already had the NFC East title wrapped up a couple weeks ago. With the exception of the Arizona game, we've done a pretty good job of limiting the turnovers - if not eliminating them altogether. You can still win if you turn the ball over once, but in those losses, we turned the ball over at least three times.

The point is, we're not making mistakes. We're not turning the ball over constantly...we're executing the SAME PLAYS WE HAVE BEEN RUNNING ALL SEASON LONG! There is nothing Gibbs has done so different that has made a difference. Look how people were complaining about Gibbs being way too conservative.....then look how we ran the ball on first and second down all day long against the Giants. The only thing we are doing different now is that we are protecting the football better. That's it. When we play mistake free football, our "simple" offense can't be stopped....just like it was back in the 1980's. I betcha as long as we don't turn the ball over against the Eagles...we'll win the game. IF we turn the ball over three times or more, we'll lose the game. That has been proven fact all season long (with the exception of the Arizona game.)

Again, we're playing pure old fashioned Joe Gibbs' Redskins football and it is working like a charm!

Folks,

This is why the Redskins have a four game winning streak and a chance to wrap up a playoff spot next week. We're playing good ol' fashioned smash mouth Redskins football. This is what us older guys have been trying to tell the younger guys. When it is clicking on all cylinders, you can't stop it even when you're expecting it. The strong run game opens up the play action passes (as seen with Brunell to Moss in the first half.) Of course, having guys like Moss on your team really helps your chances. I haven't felt this good about the Redskins since the 80's...and yes that does also include our 1999 season. :biggthump

this is the brand of football we all know and love .
smash mouth power running game with the play action.and yes once gibbs got comfortable with the new nfl he realized at the sametime he aint broke don,t fix it.this team is better than the 1999 team. yes i remember the 80,s like it was yesterday nd it brings a big ole smile to my face.

It's amazing what crisp execution will do for playcalling, huh?!

When players aren't executing and turning it over, the blame game all points to the playcalling/coaching for some reason. All of a sudden once everyone is clicking, the playcalling is amazing. It's the same damn stuff we've been doing all year, only thing is like you said skinsguy we're not turning it over and we're executing to a T on both sides of the ball.

Yeah it is great. I just miss whats his name. Zack? The PSU OB. We could tell him how full of $hit he really is. Along with the others such as Dan Patrick. It is great to have something to cheer about. I just hope it does not end soon.

edit: Zack Mills. How could I forget his whole name :frusty:
