Ok, where do I begin?
Today the Redskins didn't even resemble an NFL offense. This was shades of Gibbs/Brunell minus Santana's explosiveness. The Skins are allergic to prosperity and played today as if they spent the entire week congratulating themselves.
I need to be transparent here........I am completely fascinated by what Cousins and Mahomes are doing week to week. Mahomes threw 6 today I believe and Krik made every big throw necessary.
I pray Andy Reid did not pull a fast one on us again.
Concerns
Alex Smith is either unable or unwilling to take chances and stretch the field. If I'm wrong on both accounts that means our WRs suck. DeSean looked real good today.....just saying. Alex is inaccurate on long throws and must be better in that area.
Jay Gruden's play calling stunk. Bubble screens on 3rd and 18 and pitches on 3rd and 1 are inexcusable.
The o-line couldn't run or pass block and was either committing false starts or holding.
WE HAVE NO PASS RUSH. I'm not buying all the scheme talk. Dunbar was good and Fabian gave up one but on the whole they played well. Norman was the one who was a dumpster fire today. This off-season will be very interesting in regard to Josh.
Hopkins past the 45 is a coin flip.
The good
Mason Foster
More plays to the wideouts, but they were mostly comebacks and slants.
Defense did a good enough job to win the game.
DJ had a bounce back game.
Allen and Nicholson flashed.
Overall, the Skins offense playing the way they are playing now, will not be able to keep pace with the top tier teams in the league. They played uninspired and unimaginative football today.
My fear came true today. We got down early and had to throw our way back into the game and couldn't do it.
