Redskins @ Titans Preseason GNT

[Warpath]

Take away from the first quarter, Cousins looked good. Pass rush looked good. Amerson is playing well. Rambo played like a rookie and our run defense needs a lot of work.

50s There's assuredly some rust folks, bunch of starters out, Grossman throwing "passes", etc. Watch the rookies imo. Only thing that matters.

Hard to evaluate WRs with Grossman in there.

Man, we look so confused on defense right now.

Agreed! And Thomas injury is concerning...

 

[SkinsDalltheWay]

Redskins need to work on angles and tackling.

 

[sublime4eva]

From what I've seen the run defense is awful, rookie secondary looks like just that, rookies, LB's seem behind in pursuit on run defense and closing gaps..
Overall defense gets a C- in my book...not happy.
Also sucks Thomas got hurt so fast, hope injury is minor, not worried about offense we'll be great on that side, my biggest concern is defense and rightfully so.

 

[elocomotive]

We're playing so bad I'm crying....



...oh nevermind. It's cause I'm chopping up onions.

Just a reminder. No matter what we do tonight, it doesn't mean much either way.

I keep telling myself that but... wtf are we doing in practice to look this bad?

I keep telling myself it's because they don't really tackle in practice so it takes a bit of time to get back into that. I have no idea if I'm right, but I'm going to keep telling myself that.

Lotta guys still learning... especially many of the guys in the game and making mistakes. All the better to learn from and push them harder.

Yes, but these are now NFL players who are missing tackles, taking bad angles and costing their team with stupid penalties. (Rak and Rambo) These are things that shouldn't happen and our defense looks slow as it has in the past.

FIRST DOWN HELU !!!

 

[Warpath]

I like what I'm seeing out of Helu. Minnifield sighting too

Well, the defense isn't going to be that good. I fully expect them to be ranked in the bottom half of the league. They are going to be a project for the next few years.
