Scud's Studs Week 1 (Giants at Redskins)

SKINSnCANES · 09-12-2011, 09:53 AM

I put other for Nield. Two sacks and a forced fumble for a guy that no one thought would make the team ended up making a big difference. No offense to Cofield but Nield just looks fast out there, and hungry. I think he needs to get more reps.

Although he didn't make any highlight reels or TDs, Moss came up huge with some nice first down catches.

SmootSmack · 09-12-2011, 10:09 AM

Good point on Moss. In fact, I think all his receptions were for first downs

Mattyk · 09-12-2011, 10:09 AM

Yeah Moss was pretty clutch, and Rex just missed him on what would have been a big play.

mlmpetert · 09-12-2011, 10:27 AM

I gave my vote to Davis. HUGE game for him. Chris Nield was pretty awesome too, in fact the dline was awesome, i thought they were just supposed to make plays for the linebackers??? Everyone on the front 7 played awesome!

Grossman looked pretty good but had 3 series in a row towards the end of the game where we were all got pretty nervous. The back to back sacks for huge losses, the pass he kind of just tossed up in the middle of the field to avoid a sack and fumble for a loss. All while we had the ball towards the end of the game. He played well though especially when you consider it was his first time on the field in 2 weeks. He could be really good for us and im excited to see him continue to develop

Actually, I had him (and I think a lot of others) thought this guy was a great pick who had a real shot to be on the team. Admittedly, the early reports on the guy didn't seem to be too encouraging and making it seem he was a real project with Selvish Capers type prospects.

He showed a lot more burst and instinct than I think anyone credited him for. I have looked at any replays to see if he was the space-eater that I thought he could be. Keim's one comment was that he seemed immovable which works for me.

Also, Nield was only in the game for 10 snaps. Nice impact for such short playing time.

[As I understand it, of our draftees, Nield, Kerrigan, Paul, Helu, Gomes and Thompson were active. I heard Paul's name called on ST once and Helu got a couple snaps. Any other rookie work happen?]

While lots of guys played well, I am not going to single any one out - Damn good team ball and so nice to see credit being given to players by players (Orakpo on Kerrigan, Cofield on Nield, Grossman on Davis). As someone said yesterday, it was good to root for a team that actually looked competitive.

One down, 15 to go. I stand by my 10 - 12 win prediction.

Kerrigan. His big TD really put the Giants in the grave. Our D was a stone wall after that play. 5 tackles too.

The rookies on D had incredible debuts. Kerrigan with 5 tackles, 1 INT for a TD and Chris Neild had 1.5 sacks and 2 tackles as a backup NT.

I think it's been mentioned before, but his move to get the 1st on the 4th & 5 play was just sweet. He knew he was short and wasted no motion to get the first before he could be hit. I have seen many a WR dick around on that type of catch and come up just short. Moss secured the ball and was almost immediately beyond the marker. Very nice.

I gave the nod to Grossman because he followed up a fumble with a 70 yard TD drive. Bounces back and takes the team down the field with a hell of a throw to Gaffney for the score.

mlmpetert · 09-12-2011, 10:36 AM

I want to add Second Half Effort to the stud list. Great to see the team step it up and not settle down!

mredskins · 09-12-2011, 10:37 AM

Where is the crazy aceinthhouse guy this year? with his 14-2 predication?

lol no doubt...im waiting for his "if this, then this" analysis on how we make the playoffs after the first weekend.

I liked the fact that the team was able to overcome a couple of setbacks (drops, missed FGs, and the lost fumble) that in previous years would have completely doomed us.

I love the fact that Rex was still chuck'in the ball, even with a sizable lead.

Yeah im changing my vote to Neild. Someone else mentioned his 2 sacks and a FF came from only 10 defensive plays he was in for. A nose tackel getting 2 sacks and a FF is stright up badass and more impressive then what Kerrigan did yesterday in my opinion. Hopefully this wasnt a Chris Horton Saints game 1 time thing and he will be able to keep it up.
