Here's to a good game Mclem! And hopefully we're both better than the slop last night!

As much as we'd like to see it be the case, reality says neither of those 2 squads are THAT bad lol! But top to bottom on both they have plenty of talent on the Skins barring injury to once again compete for another division title.

Ummmm ...how were the Eagles allowed to challenge that play after the ball snapped for the fg attempt?

Nor I and I was fit to be tied especially in the first half. They finally later in the game began to get into a better rhythm. Robert looked really tentative in the first half especially, perhaps the rust was a factor cuz he was missing throws he normally does not. I do not envy our chances at a pissed off Packers team, but we'll see it's 1 game plenty of season to go. Go Skins!

Excited about my Birds, though cautious still because it is the Philadelphia Eagles. I was more excited and impressed about our Defense and Special Teams than even the offense... it was a given to me that the offense was going to be fast and put up points, Chip Kelly is the man when it comes to offense... but for the D to wrap up and tackle, and play like they actually know how to defend, was awesome.

Chip Kelly learned real quick that you cannot go into prevent Defense AND Offense with like 25 minutes remaining in the game. I am happy he learned that lesson quick. Keep the attack up, if you are up 30 with 5 minutes left in the game, then prevent is acceptable.

second half vs first was night vs day. felt a lot better in the fourth than i did in the first quarter, that's for sure.
need someone for returns tho.

the eagles didnt pass the ball in the second half. maybe a handful of times at most. They ran the ball every play, made it easy for the Redskins D. Honestly they could have shredded the Skins secondary in the 2nd half but they chose to keep the ball on the ground. Then the pass coverage of the Eagles went into prevent, willing to give up a 8-10 yard pass every down. The problem was that the eagles started playing prevent in the 3rd quarter and you cant do that in the NFL. I do feel like if they played how they usually will, the score would have been more like 47-21 instead of 33-27. They basically stopped playing football for the final 25 minutes. Chip realized in his first game that playing against NFL talent is different than running the clock down against Toledo.
