Skins 33
Saints 27

Bree’s gives us a heart attack at the end but Kerrigan gives us his first splash play of the season with a game ending sack with the Saints at 4th and goal.

Why not have both in mind, they're not exclusive

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll still suck at picking games. :cheeky:

Interesting new stats for pass rush and blocking using next gen metrics.

Trent ranks 5th

More surprisingly and encouraging Ryan Kerrigan is ranked 2nd!

I was going to post this.. I'm not surprised by Kerrigan's numbers - he is not flashy player but he is valuable player for Redskins.

It’s a matter of time with Kerrigan...also supports Kerrigan should be rushing the passer the more and not dropping into coverage.

Trent is just a baller...why is Goff breaking out? Look at the top 2 of the stat.

Keim is saying per Jay Mo Harris will start if Doctson can’t go and Mike Floyd could get some time as well.

I could care less about Doctson,with him on the field that’s one less wr defense has to worry about.It’s looking like Norman may not play either 🤦🏻*♂️

We're the Redskins. We don't set lofty goals and then achieve them.

We set lofty goals like 2 wins in a row, building off a great performance in our last game = uncompetitive game that we lose easily.

We temper our expectations coming off a terrible loss to an average team = we win easily.

We think we're gonna repeat a duplicate performance of that against a great team with a HOF qb and weapons galore on offense on national TV?

P.S. I'd love the Skins to prove me wrong on this.

Re: Skins v Saints Pre game thread
 

I think we will move the ball on this defense, I hope we can see more downfield plays this week like we saw against Green Bay. Keep the offense diversifying.

1) Cooley will be back on Kevin's podcast every now and then :

2) Few thoughts I had about the Redskins while watching the Colts @ Pats game:

- Is it me or [I][U]do we run very few easy smart passing plays like pick plays or WR screens[/U][/I] compared to other teams? The Colts killed us with pick plays, and the Pats decimated the Colts with WR screens... Maybe it's a false impression but watching it I was like [U][I]"Why don't WE do that more?"[/I][/U]

- [I][U]Thursday game was a reminder that our D played well even against the Colts IMHO[/U][/I]: they had [B]439 yards[/B] of total offense against the Pats and only [B]281 yards[/B] against us. And the Patriots' offense wasn't giving them the ball back over and over again like our's did !

I love it. Great metric.

I think one thing it misses is how quickly a guy wins. They use the cutoff of 2.5 seconds to determine whether a block or a pass rush was successful. But of course if a rusher wins at 1.5 seconds instead of at 2.4 seconds, that’s more impactful. But still, I think this is a better way to view it than counting the Time in Pocket which may be short on purpose because the QB just gets rid of the ball super quickly (Brady).
