Birds Post game (Redskins 24 Cardinals 6)

[Meks]

I'm liking "cool customer" as a descriptor lol

[CRedskinsRule]

all 7 new head coaches lost.

not trying to take anything away from a great team win, but I remember how I went to the Oakland game last year, was amazed at our team, and then with everything that happened, the team went in the dumpster.

I see us as one of the NFC playoff teams, which is saying alot in the conference, but the team has to play every game CONSISTENTLY, and we haven't seen that in past years.

The Cardinals aren't a terrible team. They're not good, but they're not terrible that's for sure. Robert Nkemdiche, Deone Buchanan, Patrick Peterson, these are very good players.

Here Cooley talks about their aggressiveness. They did get after us with a couple double A gap blitz looks. Smith went down against one of them. He got away from several others, and Gruden countered them beautifully with RPOs and screens to Thompson.

Reading the pregame thread, there was a little bit of doom and gloom or at least a lot of pessimism going on about the Cards game. Most people felt the Cards were a very good team and the 'skins would struggle, even if they felt the 'skins would pull out the W. Now that the 'skins pretty much beat up on the Cards, the sentiment was, "Well, the Cards are an awful team!"

I'm like you, I don't think the Cards are an awful team. I think the 'skins really have improved a lot and folks need to be ready for a solid 'skins team this year.

Not just solid, but very good. The difference this year is we can win on either side of the ball. There will be games our offense wins for us, games our defense wins for us, and games where both play well and we win comfortably (like Arizona).

11-5 belie dat.

I like the way you think!

This a good clip! Glad that Cooley is "back" with a bit of film breakdowns, hope he does plenty of them here:

Brian Quick coming back

[JWsleep]

Makes sense to bring back Quick. Too bad about the rook WRs! Hope at least one makes it back...

About "it's only the cards": Like most things, it's a bit of both. They aren't that good and we played great. Let's build on it! Winning is what matters.

The big challenge is not getting complacent. Gruden has never been a great motivator, so it's gotta come from inside the team. I hope that Smith can lead, the D stays strong, and, as long as he lasts, AP brings the intensity. We NEED the Indie game--shit gets a lot tougher after that. (Am I the only one who thinks we've got a very tough schedule?)

That was the right move, IMHO.

[SFREDSKIN]

Per Keim, Sims to IR:

Today’s moves: Cam Sims to IR; waive LB Josh Keyes; sign WR Brian Quick and promote DB kenny Ladler off PS.

[sdskinsfan2001]

We beat the Colts I think we win at least 10.

Beat the Colts and Packers all jump in Scheed's 11+ win wagon.

[sdskinsfan2001]

Man football don't give no fucks. Sims shockingly makes the team and is probably still basking in the glow of making the team, and football gives him a big fat dick sandwich.

Tandler breaks it down nicely:

Going back and watching the game.

Our O line was dominant but something new, our TE's (all of them) blocked so much better than last year.
