Re: Week 1: Redskins vs. Cowboys, Game-Day Thread
I don't know how good the defense of the Cowboys is supposed to be but Portis got absolutely nothing against them. The offensive line still looks old and slow but maybe that is because the cowboys' d-line is stacked.
We were given chance after chance to score that touchdown when one of the Cowboys jumped offsides on that field goal attempt and could not punch it in. Not even that, we f'ed up the field goal so a lot of problems to figure out.
Also, absolutely unforgivable how wide-open Miles Austin was on some of the plays, especially the thirty yarder on the 4th and 10. Also Carlos Rogers and Laron Landry dropped back to back interceptions which would have iced the game. Also, this offense was pretty bad given that we managed 6 points over 4 quarters.
But you know what? We gave up 7 points to one of the best offenses in the league, made up for it with a defensive touchdown. McNabb looked okay, nothing great, Trent Williams held his own against Ware and didn't give up a sack and we beat the Dallas Cowgirls on opening night.
An ugly, ugly win which we should approach, really, as a loss but it's nice to see WAS 13 DAL 7
