Re: Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

Let me say this too, for those of you who didn't see the scrimage, there's absoultely nothing, nothing to panic about. The Redskins didn't suck anymore if you were at training camp and you saw a guy drop a pass or didn't get to the quarterback.

You'll have some that want to see helmets flying and guys limping off the field to determine if the Redskins are ready - not!! It was simply a scrimmage, and that's all. I thought there was a reasonable amount of intensity on both sides of the ball to be pleased. As someone said, this is the dress rehearsal before the dress rehearsal.

The one guy that stuck out to me, if any, was Jordan Palmer. I'd really hate to see another team end up with him, seeing that both Collins' and Brunell's time is getting short here.

I agree.

It is funny though to see some of the crazy reactions after a scrimmage, which isn't much more than an organized practice between two teams.

Okay Matty, I agree maybe some of us are being a bit quick to judge a SCRIMMAGE. I will hold out hope for next week, but with all due respect and, if my memory serves me correct, weren't you one of the guys who last year would say that some of us were over reacting during the first third of the season when we sucked. And then the second third of the season was in the books, and we still sucked. By the time the last third of the season had started, this team had already mailed it in. I don't know about you and some others around here, but with this supposed high powered coaching staff, and great talent we allegedly have on paper, I just expected a little bit more. Especially after going 5-11.............

I'm with you. I mean there is no reason to have him on the roster next year.

I say keep him around for this year to help Campbell's development, then he needs to retire...

Re: Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

we have to move on. we're giving away a roster spot by keeping him here. We can teach Palmer to throw the ball to the sideline or dump it off all the time if we have too.

Re: Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

true matty but if the skins look great or very good you guys would be saying man were back. going to the superbowl. Cant have it both ways. Alot of us were disappointed in their performance. The Ravens didnt have many starters in either and they looked alot better. Especially the ot they got in the supplemental draft. Wish we would have taken a chance on him.

No, I wouldn't.

I didn't even watch, because it is that meaningless.

Re: Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

golston and montgomery did play. evans got killed by that rookie from md. smoot played good. hopefully we will play better in the first preseason game. JC better play at least a half. We have to have him sharp. No more babying these guys they dont deserve it. They havent won anything to be pampered. Need to be more physical.

Re: Redskin/Ravens Scrimmage Discussion

Why is everybody complaining? This is a scrimmage, not even a preseason game! To those who havent noticed, those were our 3rd and 4th stringers in there. They arent even roster hopefuls...they're practice squad hopefuls. So dont start losing your mind about blown coverage or bad angles or not getting to the quarterback. You shouldn't expect guys who werent even drafted to step up.

This goes to mostly everyone in the 11 on 11 drills...except Collins...he has no hope.

I looked at the game again and I would like to conclude by saying this: Their back-ups were better than ours. Nuff said.
