The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
Fill in the blank. How many points do you expect to see. Is less than 14 points a failure? How about 10?

Re: The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
I want Campbell to lead at least two scoring drives, including one touchdown
And I'd like to see us get a turnover or two as well

10 points by the half would be nice, and just a solid showing overall.

Re: The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
Campbell again shows his inaccuracy on his intermediate throws. It will also be a failure if we don't move the ball again. I believe the defense will show up but you can not expect them to be on the field the whole game though if the offense sputters. I just don't see Campbell being successful tonight against the Pats. There is a reason that Kyle Boller (Kyle Boller!!!!!!) looks better than Campbell in a west coast offense. He is being setup for failure. I'm sorry guys I'm just frustrated.

Re: The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
Failure is a strong word. That is a different context than "like to see.."
I'd like to see the first team O score at least 10-14 points. I'd like to see the first team D get at least two turnovers. I'd like to see the scrubs perform well. But failure? True failure cannot happen until Sept. 13. This game can only be a failure to me if we suffer a terrible injury or two.

The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if:
(1) The offense fails to show signs of life (i.e., a few decent drives and at least 10 points); or (2) We lose a key player to injury. |

Re: The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
Injuries, especially the offensive line.
If we lose, I won't worry, but if we lose any key guys...that could be another story. Portis will be steamrolling people come Week 1 regardless of how he looks in the preseason. I also believe the playbook will be opened up a bit in the passing game, so Campbell will take more shots down the field. He has so many targets this season, unlike in any prior year. 5 solid WRs, 2 TEs, Portis/Betts...our offense looks deep this season.

First team can't score a TD.

I'd rather have 7-9 first downs in our first two drives than a TD.

Re: The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....
First and foremost no injuries. I still only want CP to play one or two series, same with Samuels. It would be a complete failure if CP, Samuels, or Haynesworth has a season ending injury.
It would be nice to see our special teams play effectively in all facets. It would be nice to see our D stop 3 and medium to longs and get off the field Our offense is what it is, and we will not see what it can be until the first or maybe second game of the season. And no matter what it does tonight, it will be too little for a lot of people on this board. With all that, I don't want to see the same type of game we saw against Carolina in last year's "big game". |
