Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Woah! Who saw that one coming?? Always nice to sweep a division rival. First time since 1999 we've done that against the G-men. Let's get right to the Scud Stickers for this week!

[B]Defense: [/B]Great performance. Key sacks by Rack and Kerrigan, 3 ints, all of which were quite impressive, and aside from a late garbage TD, kept a previously red-hot Eli Manning led offense out of the endzone. Great job.

[B]Offensive Line: [/B]Who could have imagined Tyler Polumbus and Willie Smith would be such good bookends against that ferocious NYG pass rush? Really solid job all day long from the guys up front. Run blocking wasn't stellar, but it was good enough that we could keep pounding and convert some key 3rd downs, as well as set up some play action.

[B]Offensive Playcalling: [/B]33 rushes, 24 passes, chewed the clock, and kept the ball out of the Giants hands. It appears Kyle is pulling his ish together.

There's plenty of love to go around, I'll let you guys take it from here.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I am waiting to see breaking news on the Washington Post that Kyle Shanahan was kidnapped before this game. LOL.

Kudos to him and the coaching staff for committing to the run.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Real good game on both sides of the ball. Good job to the coaching staff, cuz they came out ready to play. No BS penalties was good for once. Halls pick was nice.

Entire team played good today and great play calling again by Kyle.. Rex is Rex glad he'll be gone next year.

Gaffney- very good number 2 this season mostly a 1 really

Helu- man this guy is a fighter, ugly game for him but he's a very bright spot

OL- 1sack? Nuff said and that's without the best LT in the Division

Defense as a whole- 98,91 get there sacks and what a catch by all 3 DBs. OJA and Hall were both big time plays.

Whole organization - been a long time since we owned the Gmen for a year good job all around

And too the true fans around here for always sticking through and rooting for the skins win or lose. We all get frustrated but yet we are always here ev Sunday HTTR!

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Even the secretaries in Redskins Park were studs. Great effort by everyone.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

FYI. No need for a smackdown this week. In fact, I'm shutting down the Smack Down for the rest of the season. Enjoy the holidays

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Everyone associated with the Redskins gets a Stud from me this week. Even you, Larry Michael. Merry X-mas and happy holidays everyone!

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I am NOT a.....Rex Man, but his ability to shake off the bad s... he does and push forward in a positive direction is amazing...
GREAT win for the Skins today!!
HTTR......SWEEP

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I cosign with pretty much everyone. The entire team came to play. Guys showed they still have pride. Well done Skins. HTTR

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I specifically want to single out Orakpo for getting his first sack in the NFCE, pressuring Manning all day AND finally getting a call on that necktie he's been wearing the past couple of seasons.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

OL-Smith, Hurt and Polumbus are keepers. I particularly love Willie Smith and will go on record to say he will be our RT next year. All of a sudden we have depth on the OL with all 3 of these guys playing well, I can say it's safe to say that Locklear and Brown are gone next year.

Like everyone said, whole Redskins team showed up today to shut Giants down. Awesome game! Although I have to say that Giants' WR corps helped us to win the game as well, especially Nicks. If Nicks had caught those two potential touchdowns then the game might end differently for us.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Id like to see game tape of the Oline the last couple weeks to reaffirm what im seeing on the field is correct, but Willie Smith is playing at a very high level. Polumbus had some issues early but played better as the game went on. Hurt has played decent inside. Im just really surprised at the Oline playing so well

Only one smackdown: a smackdown on the Giants for taking us so lightly. How's that crow, Antrel?

Holy sh&%*#!t there is a Santa Clause! JK!

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Impressive team effort. The Skins showed up, the Giants didn't. It's nice to see them still fighting and playing hard.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

My Studs: The entire team.


They all did a excellent job against the Giants and on the road. Great to see they are still fighting and keeping those "Suck for Top Draft pick" hatters crying. Like dumbasses like this guy...


[QUOTE]Too bad we won't be able to draft a legitimate QB because we won. This win was one step forward and 5 steps back. We won the battle but lost the war. I know I will be blasted for this but I am a true fan. I want what's best long term. The best analogy I can think of is comparing the 2 things I love most in this world. The Skins and my kids. Sometimes I hate being the bad guy and it would be so much easier not to, but I have to do what's best for them. Rooting for the Skins to lose isn't easy but it's for the best interest of the team. Of course I want to see us win. If the draft were a lottery I would always want us to win because it wouldn't affect us down the road but unfortunately this win does.[/QUOTE]

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Yah...how's that conversation go?
Hey Coach, lets give this a....shake for Greatness.
So let me get this straight.....we're going to.....lose for Greatness?? Tank for Glory? Suck for....what...
....Security!

Don't sell us short. The Giants knew we would play them hard they just couldn't do anything about it.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

We are plain and simple a vastly better football team right now than we were a year ago. In so many ways. Work to be done but an all around effort today to be proud of.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I've never been a Shanahan fan, but you know what? Kudos to both Shanahan's, the future looks bright:

Lol, the wife knew her dear little Kyle was going to stall his own career at least temporarily. ;)

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Our secondary had their best game of the season, 3 ints to go along with a pretty impressive 10 pass defended.

Best part of it is that whole defense back players have made plays

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Eli looked pretty ordinary out there a lot. Early on our front wasn't getting sacks but all day they had angles on him it seemed and it was affecting his passes. Good team effort on pass defense.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Didn't get to watch the game live today just finished DVR recording and geez oh man that was fantastic!!! If there was a game to win the rest of the season this was the big one IMO! Coaches and players alike get big street cred today. The players for fighting so hard in a lousy season and the coaches for...improving markedly. Play-calling, time/clock management, and I'd argue even enthusiasm all took big strides. I wonder if Mike took over the reigns from Kyle quietly, inconspicuously? I don't care but it seems to work.

And to London...you're amazing dude.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

I was happy to see the Redskins get the win today. Great game by the defense. Grossman drove me crazy with the early turnover, but I was still pleased how he remained poised for most of the game. D. Hall also had a nice game. My hats off to Josh Wilson. Two picks in two weeks. Ryan Kerrigan had a tremendous sack on 4th down. The Redskins run defense stepped up today.

I'm so happy the Redskins swept the Giants this season.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Give it up for everyone and the Giants players for talking so much shit...they are going to miss the playoffs thanks to the lowly redskins.

Glad someone finally mentioned London Fletcher who was everywhere on defense today. Outstanding game...

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Some creativity by Kyle, for sure. I'm loving the pitches to the RBs. They can set up flea fickers, end arounds, and the FAKE TOSS! Wow.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Everyone deserves props for this game. It was just straight up fun to watch our team make plays on both sides of the ball.

Personally I hope they win out and they make the playoffs over the Cowboys.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

great win today...

to think, what could be if it werent for shanahan and his choice to waste games on beck ....*sigh* i honestly feel we could be competing for the division :-( ...

oh well, silverlining is a higher draft pick lol..

defense played prettygreat today.. kyle settled down and called a decent game andstuck to the run, thanks.

rex is rex. he played decent.

helu is a fighter. helu, royster, hightower? ... sounds good.

gaffney,hankerson,moss,austin,armstrong.

paul or banks ....

honestly i think i'd be ok with that for next year.

and i dunno... great win, i hope the future ends up being as bright as it looks now!

what i am impressed with is the metamorphasis our offense and ourplan of attack has undergonethrough out thecourse of the season, look for a good next couple of games and a different looking offense the begining of next year.

No they'll win the east still

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Overshadowed by Gaffney, Stallworth made key plays as well. Got a bad spot in the first quarter on third and long (4th down conversion by Gaffney).

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

#1- Where is Giantone?

#2- Rex will be here next year.

#3- other teams on the QB list won also, heck the Colts won.

#4- although great game, nice sweep, we fans are desperate for any kind of win.

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

Hey, I like these old WRs! Bring 'em all back next year!

On the Young TD, Pierre-Paul ignored the FB give and was baited by the end around by Armstrong. Nice call Kyle!

Gaffney has been a good pick up

Re: Scud's Studs (Week 15 @ Giants)
 

It's funny how these no names at tackle play better than the high draft pick and the over paid free agent that we gave up draft picks for. Take notice front office and coachng staff.
