Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

[B]According to JLC's blog:[/B]

Moss is out - Thrash starts
Golston, Macklin, Boyd, Boschetti DeMulling Thomas are also out.
(Golston more of a run stuffer and this is a pass-first team; only going with 7 D Linemen in this game, Lorenzo Alexander active for first time and the other back up D Line rush the passer - Chris Wilson's (whose speed could lead to him being on the field much more than normal, and Demetric Evans).

So the new WRs - McCardell and Caldwell- are both active.

Calvin Johnson is up for the Lions. TJ Duckett is out

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

I, for one, am shocked that Golston is out and Torrence is in but Macklin is out.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

What's wrong with Golston?

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Does Macklin play special teams? Also, Torrence has a couple inches on DM - both may be reasons why he is in

As for Golston, your guess is as good as mine.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

30 min

sux calvin johnson is playing. he and roy williams are probably the best tandem in the league...

better than TJ/Chad, Larry/Anquon i think...

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

At least we're playing in our regular uniforms today. I just don't care for the 75th anniversary unis.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

go skins!

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Im hoping for a brandon Loyd sighting today if he cant produce today Im writing him off, yeah I have a long leash

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

It's official, Moss is out. That spells trouble for us!

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

[QUOTE=skinsguy;359937]What's wrong with Golston?[/QUOTE]

Nothing on the injury front. JLC just said he is a better run-stopper than pass-rusher (which is contrary to what I thought).

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Everyone on the offense needs to be on their game...and we need some aggressive play!

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

And here we go....Must win

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Campbell needs to be on the mark, he was off to Randel El, otherwise he'[d still be running.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

nice cut

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Another 3rd and 10! Good thing Portis is good.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

and that cut prob killed portis

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Oh no...we are already without Moss...Portis needs to come back.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

No worries. Betts is doing a good job so far.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

That was some nice fight in Betts.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

drive looking good so far

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

[QUOTE=skinsguy;359955]No worries. Betts is doing a good job so far.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, he's looking good thus far.
I still worry about his fumble issues.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What luck! :-(

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

That looked like a direct snap to portis.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Somehow the coaches fault...

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

what the fuck was the reasoning for that play?

jesus

can i do the playcalling? come on..

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

[QUOTE=jsarno;359960]That looked like a direct snap to portis.[/QUOTE]

It was. Apparently Portis didn't know what the play was.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Not sure why that play was called when we are on the cusp on the field goal range.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

wow that makes me sick, I was hoping to score on the first drive

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

loved the playcalling on this first drive,liked jason out of the shotgun,which they didnt use till the very end of the game in the giants game

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

i'm ready to throw Saunders under the bus for that BS

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

We have GOT to be more productive on offense to match the Lions offense. Those 06 dink and dunks won't work.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

How did our drive end????

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

[QUOTE=LongTimeSkinsFan;359967]i'm ready to throw Saunders under the bus for that BS[/QUOTE]

It's still early...even though that was a dumb play, he is trying something new, and that's what all of us wanted.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

There we go

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

Good stop defense.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

WTF randel el?????? Mysterious fed ex ghost knock the ball out of your hands? He could have gotten us at least 10 yards.

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread

Sorry I'd rather us have a 10 page playbook where we execute 100% than a 700 pg playbook that we execute at 50%... razzle dazzle is fine when you got a lead and play with it, but when you're even or trying to establish a lead go with simple straight ahead football

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

God I love Mike Sellers

Re: Week 5: Lions at Redskins Game Thread
 

at least Portis is back.
