Re: Birds Post game
Run defense: David Johnson gained 24 yards on 4 carries on the very first cards series of the day. After that series: 13 yards on 5 carries Johnson.

Re: Birds Post game
Signing Dez Bryant would be a disaster. He is a cancer. Forget about it.

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
Enough with this Dez shit already. Brian Quick is the first call for a WR they should make.

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
I was all for keeping KC but this team looks so much better with AS at QB. If they stay healthy this team can be dangerous.

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
Alex is such a cool customer. He's got that quiet confidence and he plays so calm and smooth too. I liked Kirk but I think we're definitely better off with Smith.
Just imagine if he had played more in the preseason. /sarcasm |

Lol. And CT and Reed. Vikings are a better team with KC, and we are a better team with Smith. Smith really reads the field well. It was super refreshing to see his head on a swivel while plays were developing. |

Seriously though, you were 100% right, preseason means way less than we tend to believe in the moment. But after months without football, and with Jay's tendency to come out unprepared week 1, I was, and don't think I was alone, getting a little anxious! Envoyé de mon SM-J320FN en utilisant Tapatalk

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
I agree with you. That's why I didn't think there was a big drop off between Kirk and Alex. I think Alex is better under pressure than Kirk is anyways.

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
After sleeping on it:
Good, Bad and Ugly 1. Running the ball...Adrian P and Chris Thompson is a great 1-2 punch so far. 2. Oline play...specifically the interior. I was really worried about Luavo and Roullier...damn they went out and played really well. Both were pulling out, reaching second level and Luavo sealed several times around the end. 3. That's why Scandrick is cut. Quinton Dunbar coming out game as a solid boundary corner. He was excellent...Norman lock down the other side. 4. Smith...Nothing flashy, just smart and consistent. Love him on the move, want to see him even more outside the pocket on passing plays. 5. Run defense...guys just doing their job. Payne, Allen, Foster, Z Brown. .....Also, Harvey-Clemons in the package substitute looked really solid. Quiet game, big impact. Only Bad and Ugly....WRs and AS need to continue to work on chemistry. Not a big issue for now but something to watch. |

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
If Reed and CT stay healthy they're going to take this offense a long way. CT isn't 100%?? Could have fooled me, he picked right back up where he left off last year.
Dunbar was really impressive. We had a Ryan Anderson sighting! Not concerned with the pass rush at all. Smith and Kerrigan didn't forget how to get after it, pretty sure it was game plan related and focusing on DJ more than anything. So awesome to see Payne and Allen clogging up the middle. This DL has the potential to be one of the best units in the league. |

The announcers even mentioned it...Bradford was being pushed off his spot in the pocket consistently. Game plan was to contain Johnson which was the right move. |

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
Not going to brag or anything but I have called Dunbar all O/S... LOL No seriously the whole D was awesome. Next week we get a better QB to face so we will see what the Db's can do then. Offense was iffy in the 2nd half, played conservative but that's ok.
Alex Smith did what he always does, wins games. Manages it well, no To's. That's why I was so stoked when we got him. Haven't seen a grade on Fuller yet but I'll see how he fared against Rivers.

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
Also this team will not be a high flying deep ball Offense, we will take shots to Prich here and there but mostly it's going to be 15 yards and in which is ok. I just hope the line holds up like yesterday

Re: Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)
Anytime you can hold an NFL team to 6 points, that's pretty damn impressive. It is also obvious that 33 year old AP is an upgrade over Perine and Kelley. CT might be our MVP. He is just so damn good.
