Better work on the roll outs and the razzle dazzle.

Next man up! They had to do it last year, they will have to do it again this year. We have Smith and AP.

We are screwed.

So heres the game plan... tell me I'm wrong. Redskins are thin everywhere so the way to beat a team that can put up 30 points (when on) is to keep their offense off the field. Look for the Skins to run run and run to keep the clock rolling. 70% of our offense will be running plays. Yes, we're thin on the line but we can't allow their WR's to carve us up... and they have two really good ones plus a stud TE. If they load the box.. play action and screens. Look for us trying to control the clock 35m to 25m. Not feeling good about our chances just gotta hope we put pressure on Fitz to see bad Fitz and not good Fitz. Pulling for Eagles over Dallas simply because I want them outta the picture and since we still play Philly twice. Make it a two team race and not three.

Same game plan I had for Atlanta and really the game plan for any game this year.

They have won the games where D was dominant, AP had a very good game and Alex just doesn't get in the way.

Not gonna work anymore. The defenses are going to load the box with 7, sometimes 8. Their sole focus will be to stop AP. Smith has to step up or we are going to see a bunch of 3 and outs. Which means the defense has to step up.

Yeah I think the same thing. It only makes sense to try to take AP away and make Smith beat you, especially with all the injuries on the Oline.

I remember having discussions about Mahomes with ehb before the draft. I wasn't sure he would be good in the pros but look what Andy Reid has done with McNabb, Smith (took a few years) and so far with Mahomes. Smith is just an average QB. He won't make many crucial mistakes i.e. the pick but he won't make many big plays because he plays so safe.

Forget who was here before. It looks like the Redskins are stuck with him for at least two more years at a fairly high price tag.

 

[skinsdad62]

well taking away AD and making our qb beat you is the defensive strategy of other teams . let that sink in dean and the abc crowd TEAMS WANT OUR QB TO PROVE HE CAN BEAT THEM

the ASS trade has the makings of a bust so far

Skins Stats & Snaps: Falcons @ Redskins (Offense)
Snaps- The Washington Redskins used 18 of their 25 offensive players over the course of 69 snaps in Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Of the seven who did not play on offense, five were inactive (Jamison Crowder, Brian Quick, Chris Thompson, Casey Dunn and Trent Williams), one played exclusively on special teams (Jehu Chesson) and one was active, but did not take a snap of any kind (Colt McCoy).

Yards and Time of Possession- The offense gained 366 yards and averaged 5.71 yards per play, which were the team’s third-highest totals of the year in both categories. However, they only possessed the ball for 27:04 of the game, their second-lowest time of possession number of the 2018 season (26:43 at New Orleans).

Points- Washington scored just 14 points against a Falcons team that had given up at least 18 points in every other game and had allowed 29 points in four of their eight games.

The Skins have only scored more than 24 points once all year, which ties them with the Browns, Bills, Eagles and Cardinals for the fewest such games this season.

Their lack of offensive production is a major part of the reason that they lost a game by 24 points for the second time this year. Only 11 other teams have lost by a margin of 24 or more so far in 2018. The Redskins join the Bills, Cardinals and Raiders as the four teams that have lost by that margin on multiple occasions.

Washington ranks 25th in points per game (20.0) heading into Week 10.

3rd & 4th Down- The offense moved the sticks on just 5 of the 13 third downs they faced in the game (38.5%). This was mainly a function of being eight or more yards away from the line to gain on eight of those plays and three or fewer yards away on just two of them.

Amazingly, the team has not converted on more than half of their third-down tries in a game since Week 16 of the 2016 season (at Chicago). Washington’s 38% third-down success rate ranks 21st in the league.

everything here is horrific. the alex smith led offense

At least, the Skins were able to pick up first downs on both of their fourth-down plays. However, it was too little, too late, as both plays came on the final drive of the game.

Red Zone- The Redskins scored touchdowns on both of their trips to the red zone against the Atlanta defense. This was the first time the Washington offense has made multiple trips to the red area in a game and scored touchdowns on all of them since Week 11 of last season (at New Orleans).

Penalties- Washington committed ten accepted penalties for a whopping 147 yards in Sunday’s game. The offense was responsible for seven of those fouls and 80 of the penalty yards. This unit drew drive-stalling flags on five of their first seven drives.

The ten penalties were the most committed by a Redskins team since the 2016, Week 8 overtime game against the Bengals in London (15 penalties). The last time Washington committed more penalties in a regulation game was in Week 1 of 2015 (11 penalties).

The yardage total is on a different level, though. Their 147 penalty yards were the fifth most penalty yards amassed in franchise history, and their most since 1971. Surprisingly, they won three of the four games in which they had racked up more penalty yards.

Injured Reserved Redskins- The Redskins placed three offensive players on injured reserve yesterday. All three players were starters, which brings the total number of starters lost on the offensive side of the ball to four (Derrius Guice).

Midway through the season, Washington now has a whopping 13 players on their IR list. That number ties the Jaguars for the most players on injured reserve in the league. The Chiefs (10) and Colts (12) are the only other teams with ten or more players on IR.

Colt McCoy 0 0%
Alex Smith (Traditional Stats)- Alex Smith tied a season-high with 46 passing attempts and completed 30 of those passes (65.2%) for a season-best 306 yards. This was Smith’s first 300-yard game as a Redskin and the 12th 300-yard effort of his career. Five of his 12 300-yard games took place last season with the Chiefs. Smith has never thrown for 300-plus yards more than once in any of his other 12 seasons.

He threw one touchdown pass, but was also intercepted for the third time this season. Smith is lucky he didn’t throw three interceptions, as Desmond Trufant dropped a pair of picks. He posted an 82.3 passer rating in the game, his second-lowest rating of the season.

These are quite disappointing numbers considering they came against a Falcons team that ranks 28th and 29th in passer rating (102.5) and passing yards per game (304), respectively. Nick Foles was the only quarterback who put up worse numbers against Atlanta this season in the following statistics: passing touchdowns, completion percentage, yards per attempt (6.65) and passer rating.

This was the fifth game this year that Smith was sacked exactly three times in. Only Eli Manning, Dak Prescott and Deshaun Watson have been sacked three-plus times in more games this season (6 each).

Alex Smith (Rushing)- Smith only rushed the ball one time, but his 22 yards on that run was enough to give him the team-high in rushing yards. He avoided what looked like a sure sack on the play and scrambled down the sidelined to pick up the first down before being rocked by Atlanta cornerback Brian Poole at the end of the play.

He is on pace to pick up 24 first downs on the ground this season, which would be the most by a Washington quarterback since 2013, when Robert Griffin moved the sticks 25 times as a runner.

Alex Smith (Advanced Stats)- Smith’s 50.1 QBR in Week 9 is about as average as you can get. His performance did, at least, earn him his best PFF grade of the season (74.6).

He also had his best showing of the year when pressured. The veteran QB completed 6-of-9 attempts (66%) for 59 yards when hurried (6.6 YPA and 85.0 passer rating).

Smith was a bit more aggressive than usual this week. He threw five balls that traveled 20 or more yards from the line of scrimmage, which is his second most deep passing attempts on the year (8 at New Orleans in Week 5).

Last week vs ATL I said the following had to happen:
"Think this games goes as our DL goes. If they can get Ryan off his mark on play action, if they contain a very under rated Tevin Coleman, if they can pressure Ryan enough to affect they're really good air attack. If not, Ryan could have a field day and our defense may be tired by the 4th".
It did not and the result was a very poor performance by a Jay Gruden coached team. I expect a better defensive effort this week however, more of the same results as our offense (injuries aside) is a complete failure with the personnel we have at skilled positions, less AP. He still gets yards when there are none. I really think Gruden is coaching his last season in DC, hopefully.

 

[skinsdad62]

the truth is we need better play from BKL to make a run to the playoffs and beyond

So who you got taking Gruden's place?

 

[Breed]

Not gonna work anymore.

That w/o question has been the opposition's game plan probably since week 3. We can't get behind....period. And it's gonna get a easier I imagine considering the state of our OL.

Every Redskins win - had the lead throughout the entire game
Every Redkins loss - never had a lead throughout the entire game

Who scores first wins. This weeks strategy... do NOT defer KO.
