Little VD to end the game and great throw by Cousin's.

 

[Stymietee]

Is it wrong to say that Kirk gets VD in the end zone?

[Stymietee]

For those wanting us to lose out, we started this game with pick #14 and thus far remain at that spot. A loss would not have moved us up depending on outcomes of the Oakland and Arizona games.

The Washington Redskins defeated the Denver Broncos 27-11 in their final game at FedEx Field this season.

QB Brock Osweiler got the start for the Broncos and went 22-of-38 for 193 yards and an interception. The Broncos’ leading receiver was WR Demaryius Thomas, who caught four passes for 52 yards. RB C.J. Anderson had 88 yards rushing and not only scored the Broncos’ lone touchdown, but also caught a pass for a 2-point conversion as well.

QB Kirk Cousins was 19-of-37 for 299 yards, throwing three touchdowns versus just one interception. While WR Josh Doctson was his most targeted receiver, WR Ryan Grant ended the day as Washington’s leading receiver, with 85 yards on just four catches.

With that, we give you our PFF-exclusive takeaways from the contest for each team.



TOP 5 GRADES:
CB Kendall Fuller, 84.9 overall grade

Edge Ryan Kerrigan, 84.2 overall grade

LB Martrell Spaight, 83.0 overall grade

S D.J. Swearinger, 82.2 overall grade

LB Zach Vigil, 81.9 overall grade

PERFORMANCES OF NOTE:
QB KIRK COUSINS, 69.6 OVERALL GRADE
Cousins finished 19-of-37 passing but was more accurate than his stat line shows. He had a receiver drop a pass, had two throwaways and was hit twice as he attempted to throw as well. Cousins completed four of his 13 pass attempts under pressure for 59 yards and one of his touchdowns. Washington’s quarterback completed three of his seven deep passes (20-plus yards in the air) for 111 yards and 2 touchdowns. Cousins is third in the NFL in passer rating on deep throws.

WR JAMISON CROWDER, 74.9 OVERALL GRADE
On a relatively slow day for Washington’s offense, Crowder caught all four catchable passes thrown his way for 47 yards and a touchdown to finish with an impressive wide receiver rating of 155.2. Crowder did all of his work lined up in the slot.

EDGE RYAN KERRIGAN, 84.2 OVERALL GRADE
Kerrigan did not make Brock Osweiler’s life easy this week, getting pressure five times on just 18 pass-rush attempts (two sacks, one hit and two hurries). Kerrigan now ranks sixth among edge defenders this season with a 13.0 pass-rush productivity rating (PRP measures pressure created on a per-snap basis, weighted towards sacks).

CB KENDALL FULLER, 84.9 OVERALL GRADE
Fuller allowed just one catch on five targets into his coverage to go with two pass breakups. Fuller has had a breakout season during his sophomore campaign and as of right now he ranks seventh among cornerbacks with a just-under-elite 89.9 overall grade.
