Re: Redskins Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down
 

You guys covered the thumbs down.

Thumbs up: Offensive line protection
Thumbs up: Stephon Heyer. I haven't heard much from his side, which is good as far as I'm concerned.
Thumbs up: When was the last time Swish made 3 FGs?
Thumbs up: Malcolm Kelly. Starting to earn his keeps.
Thumbs up: JC running the ball. More dicisive when he's had running room.
Thumbs up: Cornelius Griffin.

I liked that Zorn used almost all our offensive weapons, just not necessarily how and when he used them

[quote=SmootSmack;592156]I liked that Zorn used almost all our offensive weapons, just not necessarily how and when he used them[/quote]He runs a lot of 2 TE stuff, which is good, but when he tries to get the ball to Davis, it's almost like saying "hey, we should probably give the ball to Fred Davis here". And then running something more designed to get the ball to Fred Davis than to actually move the ball forward.

Tanna's fumble, the fluke roughing the passer call, and the two dropped tds were just deadly.

Thumbs down to Steve Spagnoulo, who made Zorn look like a clock managing genius by wasting all of his timeouts in the third quarter, the final one on a punt.

Yeah, no shit. Had we been playing anyone else, surely we lose this game. But then again, the Skins have a tendacy to play the tough teams well.

Re: Redskins Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down
 

Up: Cooley's 7 receptions and 83 yards.
Down: The TE being the only receiving threat.

Markco was in there for a few plays...I like that.

I love how he tried to take that timeout back...timeout on a punt on the opponents 45 yrd line...LOL

Re: Redskins Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down
 

Thumbs up to Kelly. He surpassed last years totals and I don't think he drops passes that he gets his hands on. Very upbeat about his attitude too. On the post game show, he talked about staying late this week and working on other plays. Sounds very level headed and upbeat!

Re: Redskins Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down
 

Did we use more shotgun this week? If so thumbs up. Seemed liked JC was very confident.

I thought Danny Smith was going to tackle Zorn, racing down the sideline to keep him from calling that last timeout. Today's experience at Fed X was a riot to say the least.

We re-watched that several times. Looks like Danny told JZ to take the timeout (expecting him to let the clock run down) and Zorn started to call it immediately. Very funny to see Danny Smith yanking Zorn's hands apart so he couldnt call it that fast.

I saw that interview too. Kelly is definitely all about getting better. I dare say, a Redskin. They were asking him about the fans booing and he was like, hey, this is the NFL. Very good attitude.
