Man, Orakpo is a stud... he seems to be in on every play. Theismann is dead wrong saying Thomas waited on the ball while the defensive guy moved towards it. It was a soft pass into coverage and the defensive guy just ran in front and caught it. I didn't see Thomas sitting there waiting for the ball on the replay.

Lets see now... 6 quarters and 3 points. Hmmmm......

[quote=GTripp0012;578378]I think you have to consider it two different drives.

Campbell was pretty good on third down, but he didn't have a completion on first or second down. Part of that was bizarre playcalling with the deep balls, and the rest of it seemed to be just runs.[/quote]

How was Campbell good on third downs. He was 1 for 7. Ummm, pretty bad in my books

[quote=SmootSmack;578187]Sam Huff has really become a sorry, sorry man. He's going off about how can London Fletcher expect to be a pro bowler if the best he can do is one tackle in the first preseason game (which, according to Huff, was nationally televised). The sooner he's let go of his radio duties, the better.[/quote]

Seriously. He was talking about how Orakpo went to Oklahoma before Sonny and Larry corrected him. You'd think knowing what college the #1 draft pick attended would be mandatory for a broadcaster on the Redskins Radio Network.

Senility is sinking in.

Which third down are you speaking of? He was 1 for 7.

[quote=Chief X_Phackter;578380]Through six quarters of preseason...

3 points scored

30 points surrendered

JC is 4/13 for 38 yards

Orakpo looks ok...needs some work in pass coverage

Special teams is suspect. At least Suisham made the X-tra Point (x 3)

Defense looks similar to what it has looked like in years past. Can't stop the third down play.


Overall, I'm not convinced this team is much better than they were last year. But it is only six quarters. And it is just preseason.[/quote]

Yeah... that what I'm thinking as well - Defense plays great except on third down plays. Offense always seem to play too cautious, afraid of making mistakes rather than taking it to the defense.

Re: Redskins vs. Steelers Game Thread
 

I'd hope that we were more testing the qb, wr's, and play calls more so than that being an actual plan for the drive

This isn't new though, as recently as seven years ago Frank and Sonny had to repeatedly cover for him

[quote=Chief X_Phackter;578384]Which third down are you speaking of? He was 1 for 7.[/quote]He completed a pass for a first down, it got called back for illegal formation, and he completed the next pass for a first down.

We ran on two third downs, with a 50% success rate.

[quote=tryfuhl;578393]Smoot you hear this man?[/quote]I predict 3 TD's in the second half.

Wait, no, it's the preseason. No one cares what he does in three drives.
