Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
More stats (and evidence of our RZ issues):
We have the second highest yards gained on offense. We have the 15th most average points scored per game. Atlanta is first in both categories.

Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
Cooley said that the NFL did not have all the review cameras for the London game that they do for regular games in the States. He also said they didnt have a camera angle to review if Jordan Reed got a 1st down with 29 seconds left in the first half. The Refs ruled Reed down at the Cincy 38 yard line, 1 yard short of the 1st down. They then called for a booth review with 13 seconds left. I assume at this point they looked and couldnt find a camera angle so the call stood.
If they did have all the cameras, they would have had a camera angle to review and we would have had 1st down with 13 seconds to go at the Cincy 37 yard line with 2 timeouts left. Enough time to pick up 5 yards and make the FG attempt a 50 yarder vs a 55 yarder. (Assuming Reed did get the 1st down after review, idk). -------------- Also, re time outs. I am a firm believer that in the 2nd half you save those as best as possible for a potential last min drive to tie or win. But in the first half, why isnt Gruden calling them to save us from a delay of game? I know we had at least 1 delay of game called in the 1st half and we went into the locker room at half time with 2 unused time outs. Redskins vs. Bengals - Play-By-Play - October 30, 2016 - ESPN

Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
Rob Kelley's starting debut could lead to RB shift for Redskins - Washington Redskins Blog- ESPN
boom Meanwhile, Kelley’s first start resulted in a 21-carry, 87-yard game in the 27-27 tie. He wasn’t perfect, but he consistently ran tough. On some carries, he bounced off defenders leaving his teammates on the sidelines shouting and punching air. Those on the field appreciated it as well. Physical He wasn’t flashy – his longest carry was 16 yards, but 12 runs resulted in gains of at least four yards. Kelley had no negative carries. cant dance when you Fat Rob. He kept running forward,” Redskins tackle Trent Williams said. “He’ll give you second, third, fourth, fifth efforts. He keeps the pile moving. I’m certainly impressed by that. As a lineman, as soon as I feel the pile, I let my guy go and help clear it off, and you’d notice he’s still going. That shows a lot of toughness out of him, that he continues to pound the rock like that.” Chalk up Silverblunt as a fan. Id say keep with Kelly, see if you can light that fire under Jones.

Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
Reminded me a LOT of Morris. Even when nothing was there, he still got 1-2 yards just by falling forward.

Jones dancing too much and not being physical. Trying to juke when he isn't that dude. I think Joe said something like he runs more violent...which I rather have in the backfield. And I think McC rather have (Gore, Beastmode) that style too.

The after London semi-meltdown thread.
It felt like Kelly was going to eventually pop one for a big gain, he didn't but I liked his 3 yards and a cloud of dust style.
Jones has got to stop dancing and run more decisively. He's too soft at times. |

Even with 2 straight 3 yard gains, you only have a 3rd & 4....and the 'skins have lots of plays for that. This team MUST RUN the ball more. I know McVay has a great passing game plan, but I felt like we were starting to tire Cincy out,but we didn't stay committed. Once a defense tires, that's when the big plays usually happen...a broken tackle or a defender who's just a step slow to react. Now that they know what they have in Kelly, I'd love to see them rotate in a fresh Mack Brown & start overwhelming defenses. Just think about the play action fakes that would open up. |

Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
I watched the Redskins/Bengals game again last night. Our team was competitive. That's all we can really ask is that they are trying to win. This coaching staff is clueless....but the players came to play..... I'm not at all mad at Dustin Hopkins for missing the late FG attempt.

Re: The after London semi-meltdown thread.
One injury I didn't read a lot about: Duke Ihenacho's concussion... That hit was scary, he was knocked out cold, I hope, for his safety, he doesn't return to the field for at least 2 or 3 weeks... Which really s*cks because I think he's by far our best safety. Whitner is getting there but so far I remember him both missing a few tackles and getting beat on coverage.
