Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
vote and discuss

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
I'll vote when the poll gets up, but my vote goes to the defense as a whole. The turnovers were the only reason we won this game. I would give a game ball to London Fletcher but if he hadn't been taunting the bench they wouldn't have scored and the game wouldn't have been close at the end. He did have a good day though, with the pick six and stopping the run game.

No other option? lol.

Fletcher had his coming out party today. He's the easy choice.

I guess, but I just honestly feel like that taunting penalty really cost us. In the end it doesn't matter because we got the win, but he doesn't deserve the game ball because he made a play that hurt the team, but it would've hurt the team even more had we lost the game. He's one of the last people I would expect to get a taunting penalty, which makes it that much more disappointing.

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Well he also came up with a HUGE play with the INT for the TD. Take that play away and we probably don't win the game.

I'll take the taunting penalty to go with an INT for TD & 13+ tackles.

I think the Fletcher acquistion could be the best once since we got Jim Lachey for Jay Schroeder. (We schnookered San Diego on that one!).

What a player. Clearly he has a great football mind, as well as athletic skills.

We are a different team.

Also, perhaps un-related (perhaps not), Sean Taylor has grown immensely in the last year.

Give Jason Campbell a decent O-Line, and this team can go far.

J-Dawg

True, I'm not going to knock the guy for the one negative play he had all day. The positives far outweighed the one negative.

fletcher, even with the penalty. i also liked to see taylor in there on special teams, the guy makes a huge impact wherever he is on the field. but i would give the game ball to fletcher.

I believe it was the LA (at the time) Raiders.

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Sean Taylor, who leads the entire NFL with 5 INT's this year, is only two away from his total for all of his previous years, COMBINED!.

(2006 = 1, 2005 = 2; 2004 = 4).

Still 10 games to go!

Arizona coaching staff for calling a worst game than the Skins.

Why make a WR throw a 2 pt conversion?

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
LOVED this D today and all season. Forcing turnovers, sacks, hardly any YAC allowed. Great job. I feel bad for Gregg Williams. Aside from the injury plagued mess last season, he as fielded championship caliber defenses 3 outta 4 of his years here, and the offense is just miserable. Blame it on whatever you want, it's bad. Can't run much, can't throw downfield... Has a team ever started 4-2 without a single TD catch from a WR? I don't know if I've ever been so aggravated after a win in my life. Last week we lost a game we should have won. Today we won a game we should have lost. Sigh....

Fletcher gets my vote. Dude is just balling.

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Who played well today? Well, the defense for most of the game. When we broke down defensively, its beacuse the pressure never got to Warner.

We forced 3 turnovers in this game. So I have to vote Fletcher of the people on this list because of that single play.

My game ball: Demetric Evans. I mean, seriously why not?

Cowell 10-21-2007 08:53 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
You know our whole defense played great and if the game hadn't been so close I would have given the game ball to London. But it seems like our offense was trying to lose the game so hard and the Cardinals would have nothing of it, they wanted to lose more. Neil Rackers gave us the win no doubt.

Beemnseven 10-21-2007 08:55 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Nobody to choose from on offense?

Har-har.

It's got to be Fletcher. And yes, that taunting penalty was complete horsesh*t. I've seen player after player make the same gestures throughout football games all season long and not once have I seen it called.

Redskin 10-21-2007 08:56 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
I cant give the ball to fletcher because he cost us a TD with his mouth after a great stop, hes a vet and should know better then this. Sean Taylor had an O.K. game and Andre Carter came up big in the end but did no t have a great game, his 1 hit was no better then ST's pick or the block field goal thats what won it after all. Rackers did not get the extra point and he did not get the field goal at the end of the game he won the game for us.

Matty-Awesome avatar.. I'm sure we'll butt heads this week about the playcalling but I gotta respect the sense of humor..

Fletcher easily. The penalty was largely BS I think, the officials were over-zealous all day... He was all over the place and making big plays.. The INT return & his leadership are what we've been missing for years...

SouperMeister 10-21-2007 09:23 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
London Fletcher played the best game I recall from a Redskins MLB in years. The only blemish was the personal foul, but he was a man posessed. What a great FA signing - the guy is an extension of Gregg Williams as a coach on the field.

saden1 10-21-2007 09:27 PM

My head tells me Neil Rackers...missing field goal won us the game.

My heart tells me the entire D...they scored and gave the O good field position all day long.

In all honesty, I really love how they're using Evans this year. Playing him at tackle, dropping him back into pass coverage. They've really been creative with him this year

Got to be Fletch though

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
No question. Fletcher

And BTW, take it for what its worth but according to joe gibbs he was trying to pump up the crowd not talk shit to the Cards, which seems more plausible coming from a smart veteran player.

itvnetop 10-22-2007 02:11 AM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
How about a vote for Shawn Springs? Misses an entire week's worth of practice to play a major role in the secondary.

mcalderone10 10-22-2007 04:21 AM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
yea its hard to hold the D accountable when the O cant stay on the field. gotta go w/ fletcher tho...skins were droppin a bit too much and there were times only rushing 3 what is that?

i put him in for lettin up one of the TDs if you're lookin at clutch players comin back after injury look at old man kurt warner's elbow last week and his #s...not bad especially after all we did to kitna and favre the 2 weeks before

i think he was tryin to pump up the crowd but that's a damn good lie if it was.

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Fletch all the way. That penalty was some bullshit. Our D as a whole rocks but we can't leave them out there the whole game or they are going to wear down at the end.

irish 10-22-2007 08:30 AM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
I really want to give it to the Cards coaches for running that idiotic 2 point conversion play without a QB. Instead I gave it to Rackers. His slightly hooked kick let the Skins off the hook.

exactly why would you do that if your Arizona? that had to be one of the most bone headed plays of the year. it was even a stretch to bring in Rattay, even though it worked

MTK 10-22-2007 02:12 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
The thing is there was a WR open on that trick play, Boldin just didn't get off a good throw. I agree it wasn't a smart play in that situation though.

Mwoody85 10-22-2007 02:12 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Game Ball to their kicker.
the redskins tried to give the game away (once again) and he prevented it.

The Zimmermans 10-22-2007 02:43 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Anyone who didnt give the game ball to fletcher...didnt watch every play...The guy was an animal

TheBigD 10-22-2007 03:31 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
If Neil Racker doesn't miss the PAT or FG, the Skins would be a .500 going on the road to play NE. The thing is, almost doesn't count in this game...only in....

TheMalcolmConnection 10-22-2007 04:23 PM

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
Yup, because if Suisham doesn't miss HIS FG, we aren't even talking about Rackers.

We're talking about how ST or Landry maybe intercepted a deep ball downfield to end the game when they're trying only for the Hail Mary.

Re: Redskins 21 Cardinals 19: Who gets your game ball?
 
can't believe Fletcher got so many votes since he single handedly let the Cards back in the game with that dumb taunting penalty. Had he just shut his mouth they would have punted (since it was 4th down) and they would not have scored that td shortly after the penalty.
While Fletcher did look good, I can't in good conscious give him the game ball when he was a MAJOR reason we almost lost.
