Let me correct you the Redskins did improve at QB. Rex is a slight upgrade over McNasty. Rex can get hot and we do know he will lay the ball on the carpet from time to time. At least Rex knows the offense of Kyle's unlike McNasty did.

This is a big time text for the Redskins this Sunday.
1.We can beat a division rival
2. We can crush Philly's playoff hopes.
3. We can have 2 games up in the divison if the Cowboys and Giants lose.
4.We are 4-1 heading into Carolina next week.
5. Defending homefield can we win our home games?

This is the week the offense has to move the ball and score points. The wide receiver's have to step up and have a big day when the ball is thrown to them. We can't just run the ball every play cause philly will play 8 in the box to stop us from running the ball. Fred Davis can have a big game against the LB's of the Eagles. I'm calling out the offense this week to get it done if we want to to give the Eagle a big L.

It's like pretending you have the same wife, after she gets breast implants. Sure she has a similar personality, but her new look gives her a certain swagger. We don't quit, and we don't give away games anymore. That much is obvious.

I have been paying attn and watching the games and I dont see any quit in philly,just bad luck.And until we win a game like this ,WE are the same redskin team,all you gotta do is look 2 games back.I bet you thought we were going to kick dallas's ass too,howd that work out?

ok, if you said "some bad luck" that would make sense, but to put all of it on "bad luck" is way off. It's not "bad luck" that has their DEs & OLBs have given up crucial plays by losing outside containment. It's not "bad luck" that Vick has been hit hard many times & it wasn't "bad luck" when Vick threw a ball away at the end of the half last week as the clock ran out & they didn't get a fg attempt.

Interestingly (at least to me), this will be the first opponent this year that we don't have a FA starter from them:
NYG - Cofield
Ari - Hightower
Dallas - Bowen
St. Louis - Atogwe

IF we win this week (especially a dominant win) I could see the Carolina game being a HUGE let down.

That said, I am willing to risk that for a dominant win against the iggles!

Still interesting how much of our FA signings came from opponents we play this year early, I wonder if it had to do with focused study on early opponents. I don't know, probably just coincidence, but I don't think that happens a ton around the league.

Did Rex not replace McNabb last year at the mid point? That's why I said no improvement, cause he took over last year.

I think some are giving way too much credit to Philly. Sure they have talent at the skill positions but they simply are not playing good fundamental football and they have glaring weaknesses on the OL and in their LB corps.

My problem though is still with the bad Oline play, questionable playcalling, and average QB play...Eagles Offense still managed 489 yards total offense vs Bills, and the week before against a pretty solid 49ers defense put up 513 total yards. I think Philly's issues on offense are much easier to fix than their defense.

We are by no means a team who can survive a shootout with Philly, we are not built like that. We need to control the ball on offense and keep the Iggles off the field. Time of possesion, we are averaging something like 33 mins per game, thats helping us win. Run the ball.

Mattyk · 10-14-2011, 10:14 AM

Yeah with all the yards and points they put up, they also shoot themselves in the foot time and time again with turnovers. That's a big problem, and more than just a little bad luck.

53Fan · 10-14-2011, 10:21 AM

I saw an interview with "someone" who questioned whether the Iggles players had really prepared themselves or did they think they would just walk over people? I'm not sure if that's part of their problem or not but their defense can definitely be taken advantage of.

What I do like with the match up, is Philly has a ton of pressure on them. This is a must win for them early. AND this type of must win has job implications on the coaching staff. I really believe for the first time in Reid's career that the calls for his firing along with his Defense cordinator (Juan) are very valid. Leadership on that team is a mess too. Vick has looked bad on camera lately and too many new guys on that defense.
