post game packers game

[skinz2winz]

In a real game, there is no way they throw that to Grant. Pryor, Crowder, and Reed can all take a screen. It is far too early to make the statement they will miss Garçon. We haven't had Pryor, Doctson, JC, and Reed yet. I think they are holding Pryor back now because it is preseason. He will have a big game 1.

I say pick your poison. Of course the run game must be effective (I think it will) and you have Doctson, Reed, Crowder & Pryor not to mention a RB out of the backfield. I believe our offense with these size weapons can be more effective than what we had prior. I'm hoping to see some "no huddle" or more "hurry up" offense this year from Cousins & Co. I agree with you GK that Pryor will be hard to handle game 1.

HTTR!

Although I talked about Jay not being big on the run game I illustrated last year the Skins were most successful when they ran the ball well because it made play action effective. If they can't run the ball the passing game goes to hell in a hand basket.

I saw some good, and bad just like most pre-season games. Just a few thoughts.

Redskins definitely have some good players on the defensive side of the ball.

!st and goal from the one or two, Samaje runs that shit in for a TD. Love CT, but really? Perine will be the #1 back.

KC is no Aaron Rodgers, and shouldn’t expect to be paid like that type of QB….that is all, good night.

So - using your logic Carr, Palmer & Flacco shouldn't expect to be paid like Rodgers but guess what? They all make about the same or more. You just don't get it. The QB pay has little to do with being the best at your position. It is about being adequate and being in the right place at the right time.

Barring a disaster of a season Cousins will get paid likely more than Rodgers (if only for a brief time) due to supply and demand. In time his salary will be middle of the pack & others will get an even higher salary. BTW - how you can base any of this on some meaningless preseason game when teams use vanilla schemes & withhold many players is beyond me.

Washington Redskins rookie cornerback Fabian Moreau has practiced for two weeks and played in one game. That’s enough for the NFL’s highest-paid corner to take notice.

Moreau has a long way to go in showing what he can do, but certain qualities have stood out. He’s aggressive and willing to play physical. He also was beat down the right sideline for a 38-yard gain against Green Bay, though he was in position and it took a perfect pass.

“Yeah, I mean you guys see it, too. So it’s no joke what he’s putting out there on the field,” Redskins corner Josh Norman said. “Obviously he’s going to be a great talent in this league. But he’s still going to work on some things. We’re going to get him to the level he needs to be.”

Moreau likely would have been drafted higher if not for having surgery to repair a torn pectoral muscle in March. One or two plays in August don’t foreshadow greatness, but Moreau shows signs that he’ll be a good player. He allowed the deep ball, blaming his technique.

“I got beat. It can’t happen. I have to get better,” Moreau said.

That’s what the rookie must say. That sort of mindset leads to improvement. Here’s what Norman said:

“Perfect position. It’s just that things happen. The timing when the ball gets there, it arrived faster than he thought it would have.”

Moreau later broke up a pass when he stayed physical, even after the receiver crossed him up a little bit to seemingly win inside. But Moreau quickly recovered and was all over the target, breaking up the pass. He’s flashed on special teams, too.

It’s too early to anoint Moreau as anything other than a rookie who has looked sharp for a couple weeks versus backups. But he certainly looks as if he’ll provide depth at an impact position. And if the Redskins want to let Bashaud Breeland walk after the season, they’re covered. That’s the way it’s supposed to work: Draft a good player, develop him and save money to spend elsewhere.




Here’s an update on the other draft picks, plus two undrafted players:

Defensive end Jonathan Allen: A few plays stood out. He had two good rushes against Green Bay’s starters in which he was able to drive his man back, using his hips well. Another time he showed awareness on a screen, turned and sprinted to help make the stop on the other side of the field. But he was too upright on another rush, resulting in him getting knocked to the ground.

Linebacker Ryan Anderson: Didn’t play because of a shoulder stinger. He’ll be one of the Redskins' top four outside linebackers.

ADVERTISEMENT
Running back Samaje Perine: He ran much better than he did in the first preseason game, showing good footwork and vision. Perine did a nice job of cutting to avoid one defender while keeping his eyes on what’s ahead of him.

Safety Montae Nicholson: Like Moreau, he played for the first time this summer. He rotated well on one deep ball -- he was in good position to intercept, but still helped defend. He showed good timing on a blitz off the edge, racing in from 10-yards deep. On one run, he took on the blocker but in doing so took his eyes off the ball carrier and, therefore, the play.

Tight end Jeremy Sprinkle: Didn’t jump out much against Green Bay. Did lose on a block that forced Perine to cut inside for a 4-yard gain. For Sprinkle, it’s all about perfecting his technique. He has the size.

Center Chase Roullier: Continues to impress as the No. 2 center. He’ll have a good test Sunday versus Cincinnati with starter Spencer Long sidelined two weeks after arthroscopic surgery on his knee. He worked double-teams well, and on one Perine run up the middle, he turned his man outside and drove him a few yards. He did make a block in space, but it wasn’t fluid.

Receiver Robert Davis: His hands continue to improve with four catches for 36 yards and he’s showing that he might help on special teams. He did lose a block on a receiver screen (head down, no power). And I wonder if, on his deep routes, he drifts a little too close to the sideline. Worth developing.

Linebacker Josh Harvey-Clemons: Worked mostly with the third unit. He won’t shy from being physical, but he’ll have to learn how to get off blocks to make plays. That’s a tough part for someone switching from safety. He did take on one blocker and made an arm tackle, but it was still a solid gain. He’s showing enough to keep him around in some capacity (practice squad).

Corner Josh Holsey: Worked as the slot corner and on special teams. It’s going to be hard to win a roster spot with five corners ahead of him: Norman, Moreau, Bashaud Breeland, Kendall Fuller and Quinton Dunbar. His tenacity and ability to play inside are helpful.

Guard Kyle Kalis: Continues to impress as the No. 2 left guard and has consistently worked ahead of veteran Arie Kouandjio. It’s deserved. His technique has been consistent (he spent the offseason working with former NFL lineman LeCharles Bentley).

Linebacker Nico Marley: He’s a terrific story given the odds of a player his size (listed at 5-foot-8, 200 pounds) at linebacker. He clearly has good instincts, but he also missed a ball carrier in the backfield when he tried to shoulder tackle him. Will be tough for him to earn a spot on the 53-man roster.

just about right for the rookies

I would have been good if KC signed a deal like Carr, but he didn’t. Maybe, I just should have left it at “KC is no Aaron Rodgers”. KC doesn’t need to be the best. But, if he’s paid as the top QB in the league, he better have more than just “adequate” players around him. If he’s compensated as the best, will that be possible? I don’t think so, look no further than Drew Brees or Andrew Luck. KC is definitely “in the right place at the right time” to get rewarded as the highest QB in the NFL.


BTW, I didn’t see Tom Brady on that top 10 list. So yeah, I think I "get it".

Brady is an exception since he & his wife are very wealthy & he can afford to sacrifice a little in order to win championships. The cap keeps rising & I have no doubts that if the Redskins plan accordingly they can surround Cousins with adequate talent to make deep runs in the playoffs. If they don't go far it won't be because of Cousins making too many $$ - it will be due to the team not planning correctly.

BTW - the overpayments are much more a factor of the Redskins FO and not Cousins. They could have saved themselves lots of money on him if they just didn't let their ridiculous egos get in the way. They are the ones who keep playing him on these crazy tags (like no other team in history). I can't blame Cousins for accepting the terms - anyone would have to be a fool not to go that route & it also shows that he has confidence in himself.

I think that this works out w/ Cousins extending next offseason & yes the amt will be more than desired, but the blame will lie strictly w/ the Redskins. Again - I would hold off on judgments of his play until at least midseason & certainly would not come to conclusions based on preseason.

 

[skinsdad62]

making judgements in the preseason is not very football savy . mid season is about right but we will struggle some early . too many changes but hopefully we can win ugly

KC isn't even on the same planet as Giselle (not even including Tom's earnings here) when it comes to wealth. Not even close.

$540 M for the Bradys & $20M for the Cousins according to this source. No doubt it will go up for Cousins but ditto and then some for the Bradys.

Tom Brady's salary is like allowance compared to his wife.
