Anyone who said Alex was a comp and better...get the fuck out
Hearing a lot of comparisons to this team right now and the Ravens when they had Trent Dilfer. I'll take it, because we're winning, and that cures everything. But at the end of the day we have a pedestrian QB. Smith is going to have to put up some numbers soon. If we make the playoffs, we won't be able to run AP 200 yards every game from now until then. Smith needs to produce more. But i agree with you. Kind of crazy all the people on here who said Smith was comparable / improvement over Cousins.

Edit: I want to point out that i think we can win football games with Alex Smith, because he is a game manager and doesn't turn over the football. He's a smart guy, and he just plays his guts out. I am holding out hope for year 2 to see if he improves with us.

I did not know that. I understand jumping out to a lead and than controlling possession and playing D. Im not expecting him to just chuck away (especially with our current passing offense) but a second half touchdown would be completely acceptable.

It is ok to talk about RG 3 again, just not Cousins.

Let me be one of the first then, because I've been saying it for years. I like the burgundy on gold look.

I know I’m beating a dead horse, but it’s concerning that Alex Smith can’t or won’t throw anything but check downs, screens, and dump offs.

I know it’s been stated that Cousins did more with less talent, no running game, a horrible defense, a porous line, and an missing Jordan Reed, Josh Doctson, and Chris Thompson. Alex Smith has been handed the opposite and can’t perform. Smith is what’s holding back Gruden’s high powered passing attack; no one else.

Just throwing my vote into the hat that I also think Smith is trash.

Some interesting offensive stats. They only have through week 7. With the first chart Washington is above average to average in all categories. The second chart is a mixed bag but some positive areas. Pts/trip to red zone and avg. Lead when starting a drive are good.

For those interested in the AS vs KC debate Int/Dr are about the same. Minn has 27 more drives than Washington does though.

Nice stats, though I feel like the TOs/Dr is more relevant since KC fumbles as well as throws ints, and in that there is a significant difference.

More telling for the Skins though is the TOP, we are 2nd, and that goes to the Skins playing good consistent short offense, we are 15th for drive success rate, which is the definition of an average offense.

Norman on the team right now "we have some grown men in the trenches"

"Alex doesn't turn the ball over and hurt us on defense"

He does fumble more but since it was for the entire offense and not exclusively the QB I didn't want to reference that. I do feel that the offense is not as bad as it seems based on the stats.

Re: Giants Postgame

As far as Alex Smith I think the most important stat is the fact the Redskins have had more points than the other team 5 times and less points than the other team only two times so far this year. I will take 200 yards passing and a win over 350 yards passing and a loss any time.

The intangibles cant be understated...I've heard this multiple times about Alex...Cousins seemed to be more erratic and excitable, Smith calming confidence that seems to mesh better with the group.

Also on the other side of the ball, I've heard Mason Foster has the same type of effect....where Norman and Swearinger get every pumped on the D, in the front seven Foster is a calming, cerebral affect especially on long drives, pivotal situations.

Me too....I just wished the Redskins would wear the white jerseys with the burgundy pants at home like when Gibbs and Turner coached the team.
