Yeah the whole game I was like THEY NEED TO BE PLAYING THE ROCK MORE!!! Everytime he touched the ball he seemed to get at least 8 yards.

[QUOTE=TAFKAS]In another thread we're talking about Robert Royal and whether he's been exonerated now...so here's my question, after today are we just about ready to forgive Rock for his costly fumble against the Chiefs?[/QUOTE]
i feel that we forgave him instantly, atleast I did. He is a TRUE redskin, not a f'n pierce or smoot, he is true true true and he obviously didn't mean to. He is a backup and does an amazing job as one

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!!!

[QUOTE=dmek25]you guys make me laugh.last week everyone was all over the offense for not making plays.this week we run for over 200 yards and not one peep about how awesome our line play was today!kudos to coach bugel and the dirtbags for stepping up today.great job[/QUOTE]

Yes indeed. 257 yards rushing is awesome ... against the 27th ranked run defense in the league who apparently forgot to practice tackling this week.

I was one of those who was "all over the offense" last week for not making plays. Was I supposed to make excuses for them? Was I supposed to be applauding their performance when for the third game in a row they could not add to a 10 point lead in the fourth quarter?

Sorry dmek, as a fan, I reserve the right to bitch when my team loses. But forgive me if I don't share in the thoughts that they are back on the track to the playoffs because they played a team who is in worse shape than the Redskins are. When they beat Arizona next week, and then take care of business at home against the Cowpies the week after, then maybe my hopes of seeing this team salvage the season and maneuver in position for a wild card spot may be rekindled.

Yes it was a great job by the offensive line, and they manhandled a team that they should have manhandled yesterday. But as is often the case in recent years, the win against the Rams may have been too little, too late. Beating teams with renewed fervor and excitement after being eliminated from playoff contention is a pattern I expected to see stopped cold when Joe Gibbs arrived. I hope we won't see that two years in a row with him in charge.

Yes you reserve the right to bitch about the team after a loss, but why do you have to make a dig at the team after a win (e.g. citing the Rams' run defense's ranking)?

Also, I suppose that since you are citing the opponent's ranking after a win, that you would be citing statistics relating to opponents that we lost to. For example, I am sure that you have said that we lost to some damn fine teams; most of whom will be in the playoffs.

[QUOTE=railcon56@comcast.net]In the first qtr right away i saw brunell put the ball up long ...and i saw gibbs not sitting on a lead... this week was alot different ...this was what i have been waiting for all year...so yes i am more that happy to give everybody their due and credit.... i want wins not losses and everybody came to play..... they finally played with urgency ON offense and defense it's about time and it was fun to watch...Royal was a prime example of that... hey i even saw that famous williams pressure.... THAT WAS THE REDSKINS I SAW YESTERDAY!!!![/QUOTE]

I saw Gibbs call running play after running play after running play. I saw Gibbs "sitting" on a lead and doing it quite well.

Bozzy, sorry to call you out, but didn't you call for Rock to be cut after the Chiefs game?

We've got a few aspiring Sally Jenkins right here!
