The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

46 throws and we win? And zero Ints? Growth?

Gud: Garçon toughness on that last drive, cousins not turning the ball over, Run defense, we ran for 120+ tough yards, Our new kicker looks great

The bad: too many big plays in the passing game, penalties

The GREAT: that last drive, keeping with the run game and it paid off with Alfmo delivering us to the 50 yard line last drive, 5 sacks...the toughness of culliver playing when our secondary is hurting. Crowder.

Kudos to the coaches bouncing back and getting us back to looking like the team the first two games of the season. We put up 417 yards of offense...not too shabby

Httr!

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Garcon is highly underrated. In the past, if he was out, our win/loss record took a nose dive.

Fast enough to outrun the secondary, making circus catches for us since RG3s high fastballs across the middle in 2012, and brings toughness this team has lacked. What's not to love?

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

The first half d-line was tremendous.
Cousins led a game winning drive. That's big.

Other than that, this was a win where our inability to score early tds and lackluster 3rd quarter should have cost us the game, and would have against a better team.
Our secondary is still bottom third.

The great? The feeling of pulling out a win at the buzzer. Nice.

It's been a long time since we had a nice come from behind last minute win. I forgot what it felt like.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

I'm glad we took some shots today...Ross got a nice gain, crowder just missed getting a foot down for a td, we got a pass interference call on another. We got to keep the defense off balance and keep those safeties back

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

The good:
Time of Possession 18:52 Time of Possession 41:08
Baker
Murphy
Jarrett
Long
OL
Cousins
Morris
Thompson
Crowder
Reed
Garcon
Hopkins
Breeland

The bad:

The young guys making stupid penalties
The refs (sucked bad)
Grant (even though he made a key play, he also dropped 2 passes)
Special teams
Kerrigan whiffing on 2 sacks

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Good:

Our receivers were clutch in the final drive
Chris Thompson
Alf
Good pass protection
Kirk made good decisions. Some of those throws were super tight on the final drive and he was clutch.

Bad:

Ryan Kerrigan had two free shots on Bradford and one of them would have saved a touchdown.
Terrence Knighton gets zero push against a 280lb center.
TEs. Carrier and McCoy were unemployed for a reason before we signed them.

Didn't put Reed in either category. He made some good catches but made a huge mistake on the fumble.

Carrier had a couple of receptions.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

If I saw correctly, Reed left with a concussion... must go through protocol to return.

Damn...even with Paul coming back, we need to address the te position in the draft.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

[quote=SFREDSKIN;1124137]Carrier had a couple of receptions.[/quote]

The abuse he took run blocking more than made up for it.

One reception he was wide open.

The second was much more difficult and he held on. Good play but he isn't good.

Just my opinion.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

The Redskins are killing the time of possession, 41+ minutes today. What is that mean? We have a fucking pretty good OL after years of shit.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Culliver was struggling with injured knee..it could have cost us the game..wow i can't see playing that position and not be near 100%..you can get away with that on some positions ..NOT at CB ..they will pick you to pieces. WE GOT LUCKY!

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Fussy fans today eh?

Felt like a good win we can hang our hat on going forward, it wasn't pretty but who cares.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

We beat an an NFC East team.
Our quarterback looked good.
Our defense posted a shutout for the first half.
Not much else I need to know.......

No kidding...plus it's the effing Eagles and chip Kelly....division game! I'll take it, of course it's gonna be ugly

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

There was plenty of bad out there. But there is no need to talk about it after a great win. That 15 play 90 yard drive was a thing of beauty.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Good= oline once again they dominated. MM looks like a star Rt.

Defense stepped up big time in the 1st half, if we had Djax that game would have been over at half, he makes defenses respect that ability.

Crowder and grant look promising.

Cousins was great on that last drive.

Overall a good effort but we have to keep a consistent gameplan going. Httr

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Beating the dirty Eagles. The last drive. Oline. Chris Thompson. 1st half d. Special teams and penalties need work. Great needed victory today. HTTR!

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

I think it's safe to say we've seen the last of Roberts.

Knighton was double and even triple teamed all day. Kerrigan's free shots were directly attributable to Knighton's presence. I also thought there were several runs he pushed the line back.

Right. Pot roast is playing just fine, I'd like to do the extension in the offseason. Also like to see Keenan Robinson get an extension...quietly having a good season.

Man, really happy with our our run defense so far. Philly got some talented backs and we held our own today, again.

Keenan Robinson came on last year and is playing great, I'd extend him for sure.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

The best thing for me watching this team this year is seeing how good our Rookies are playing, and it's only week 4.

I knew Scot had an eye for talent but damn, almost all his picks that are still on the roster are playing and playing well. We may have legitimately gotten 4-5 starters out of that draft, and possibly more with time and development.

Amen. Agreed.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

The great: A 90 yard game-winning TD drive that ate up nearly all of the clock. It was magnificent!

Otherwise, there was lots of good and some bad.

I am very encouraged by the way our team competes and I sense that we may be started on the right path. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

That's right Scherff, Smith, Jones, Crowder, Jarrett are all making an impact, we'll have to wait for Spaight next year and also some of the undrafted FA contributing.

It was a great response after last Thursday's debacle on national tv

[quote=skinsfaninok;1124201]after 4 weeks the skins have a top 5 def and top 10 off... yes u read that right[/quote]

And I'm pretty sure they lead the time of possession on offense, 41+ minutes today.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

if they keep that up we win the east

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions

Agreed. Most McC decisions so far seem good. Draft picks are promising and FA picks like Knighton, Francois, Goldson, Culliver, Paea -- all seem like a good moves so far. McC's rebuilt front seven has allowed us to avoid blitzing, Spec teams got better with new kicker and probably Ross. Not to mention the cuts have been smart -- cutting Amerson, Forbath -- sending messages to team.

But biggest thing is locker room, seems cohesive, everyone playing for each other and defending each other. Felt like with Griffin in there, it was always a circus with who said this, etc -- and now they're talking about playing hurt and going out to dinners together.

To be fair, even Griffin was encouraging his teammates. I love the fact that despite all the shit, he's still out there cheering everyone on.

Re: The Gud, the bad and the Great. Eagles Post Game Reactions
 

Thought the playcalling was good for the most part.
They kept the run game going all game, even though it wasn't always easy.

I would like to see them run on 2nd down more though and not be as heavy handed towards 1st down runs. Gotta make the D respect the run even on 2nd downs. Would also like to see more balance on 1st downs, right now we're heavy handed towards run on 1st down.

Liked not having Roberts out there wasting targets.

Liked going to Garcon durng crunch time, key situations think of players.

Didn't like phasing Alf out of goalline carries.

Liked Crowder out there making plays.

I respectfully disagree.

Pot Roast played a total of 19 snaps.

He was double teamed 4 times:

0:51 left in 1st quarter, 1st and 10: gets doubled teamed and pushed out of the hole
Demarco Murray runs 30 yards through the hole he just got pushed out of.

15:00 left in 3rd quarter, 1st and 10 he was double teamed

11:25 left in 4th quarter, 1st and 10 double teamed

10:07 left in 4th quarter, 1st and 10 double teamed

Pot Roast was never triple teamed.

When Kerrigan came free to the QB Pot Roast wasn't in the game:

3rd and 7 with 14:54 left in the 2nd quarter

and 3rd and 7 with 8:35 left in the 3rd quarter.

On the 15 snaps when he was 1 v 1 he pushed the pocket once or twice.

Will wager Cooley grades him very badly on the film breakdown this week.

He needs to lose 50 to 60 pounds and get in better shape. He has no push at all if he has to stay in for two plays in a row.

Totally agree on Keenan. Bad Mofo.
