Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Is it too early?

Nah .. less than 4 hours to go till the most important preseason game. Time to see how the team does against the vaunted Ravens defense -- Let the battle of the beltway commence

Sound off

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

This is the measuring stick. We will see how good we really are

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Say beck plays well but ravens when a close one 19-17

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Heard from the little birdies that Rex will be starting tonight.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Battle of which beltway? 495 or 695?

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

skins will lose
a close one and have a 7-9 season

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

No injuries, good TEAM effort.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Look for Beck to get pressured a lot from the ravens.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Would like to see both QBs get a half of work in. Would like to see that, because regardless, who starts they need to start getting some serious reps in.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Per CRussell, Sexy is starting.

:madani:

dont know what to make of it other than Shanny's keeping both guys on thier toes and really letting everyone know that this is not Becks job just yet.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

They're going to alternate every couple of series...so maybe FrenchSkinsFan got his wish

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

For Grossman, the sky will either fall onto him or he shall reach the heavens.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Any idea how long starters are susposed to play for?

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

[quote=mlmpetert;826820]Any idea how long starters are susposed to play for?[/quote]

Hopefully the first half -- want to see some consistency from Beck. Oh..AND NO INJURIES

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

A little surprised Rex is starting, don't think it's tooo big of a deal but is a little bit of a deal. Pressure on Beck tonight. I'm excited to see tonight what we got, let's get this things poppin' and show some team effort and some solid hits...no injuries and positive vibes

HTTR

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

i bet rex is starting so he can totally blow it against the ravens awesome defense, and when he does, beck will come on in and wipe up the mess, so to say.........no qb competition after tonight, well, at least it should be secure for beck after this game if rex is rex. i will be the first one to say i am ready and standing eagerly in line to get my heaping serving of crow if beck turns out to be an above average qb in the league. i am actually excited to watch this game tonite. who would have known????!!!!!

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Wohooo....the game is actually on TV in my area.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

I hope we run the ball down their throats and then hit a couple of 20yd+ passes. This will definitely test our o-line and QB's. Hopefully our DB's step up and show they can do the job. I'll be glad when our starting safeties get back in the lineup.

Doubt it. I'm sure Baltimore has to have some good second stringers.

Isn't it on ESPN nationwide? It's on on the West Coast.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

The starter for the season will be decided from this game.

I hear tell that there's a likelihood Ravens starters will play in the 2nd half of this game as well....

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Just ran to get a six pack of Sam...ready to roll. First pre-season game I'm actually watching at home.

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

I was hoping shanny would put them both on the field at the same time for the first play. Let them fight between themselves to catch the snap.

Yeah I'm thinking smoot must have pulled some strings to get the only meaningful preseason game nationally televised :)

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Well I am currently pissed as my satellite keeps going out. If this game is on ESPN and I can't even watch it I will be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pissed. Will it be streaming on ESPN?

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

I don't like how they will rotate every series.. You cant really get into a rhythm like that. What if we are backed up on our 5 yard line and it's Rex/Beck turn? Then the other QB gets it on the 45 and drives it in for a TD?

LOL.. I don't like the rotation idea. I think you put in Grossman for the 1st two, and then Beck the 2nd two

It every two series. Not sure if that makes a big difference tho

Per Suzy Kolber, Sexy and Becks will rotate every 2 series to "simulate having to come off the bench cold".

Too many variables from drive to drive and more importantly, like you said, it's going to be tough for either of them to get into a rhythm. Its a tough situation all around.

Why doesn't shanny just say beck is the guy? We all know it

I'm really not so sure. Rexy is balling right now

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

I'm so pumped for the this year to start. We have so much young talent that we've never had, and we ahve a head coach in place who is coaching the game the way it's meant to be coached. People now a days forget about what football is really about with all this media BS going around these days and what competition is meant for.

Rex or Beck. I feel the same for both at this point. I would like to see Beck make it and be the starter because he's been working so hard. Although if he's not the man this year then let the best QB lead us into the gates.

No drama, no Mcnabb or Albert BS.. Only drama in camp is who is going to be our starting QB because both guys have played well. To me fella's... That isn't a problem!!!

SO FREAKING PUMPED!!!

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread
 

Gruden says the Ravens will be bringing the heat on d tonight. Good. I don't think we've been tested like that to this point yet. Not a fan of the qb's alternating every two series though.

Sam Huff on Ray Lewis ."If there's a guy who would kill someone ...long awkward pause ... to win a game its Ray Lewis.

Talk about awkward, I just walked past Vinny Cerrato in #Ravens press box. I tried to avoid eye contact. He offered me a 1st rounder.
