Could Redskins fans be on the verge of getting what they’ve been clamoring for? Jason Campbell has taken every snap during the bye week with the first team offense while Mark Brunell is resting his injured ribs. The thought is that with a second week with the 1st team next week……that Campbell will be ready to start.
The Redskins are averaging 20.0 points per game. The running game has been producing 128.4 yards per game and 4.6 yards per carry. The Redskins average 197.4 net yards passing per game and complete 64.1% of their pass attempts.
The defense has not played well and allows 24.4 points per game. The Skins allow 110.7 yards rushing per game and 3.8 yards per carry. The pass defense has been horrible, allowing 239.4 net yards passing and 60.3% completions.
I think Joe Gibbs should bench Brunell and let Todd Collins have at it. Brunell is to old and his legs and arm show that by a mile. Gibbs make the right call please, lets show the league you still have like 1988!
The Redskins just couldn’t stop the Colts offense, plain and simple. LB Marcus Washington tried his best with 11 tackles, but no one follwed his lead on the defense. The Colts ran the ball 25 times for 110 yards (4.4 ypc). The Redskins allowed the Colts to complete 25 of 35 passes for 342 net yard passing!
WR Antwaan Randle El finally started to earn that big paycheck he’s been getting. Randle El returned a punt 87 yards for a TD, carried the ball twice for 19 yards and caught 3 passes for 42 yards. Mark Brunell completed 27 of 37 yards for 226 yards and 2 TDs. Clinton Portis carried the ball 12 times for 43 yards (3.6 ypc) and caught 4 passes for 21 yards. Ledell Betts had a decent game, carrying the ball 10 ties for 52 yards (5.2 ypc) and catching 5 passes for 41 yards. TE Chris Cooley caught 4 passes for 42 yards and a TD and WR James Thrash caught 2 passes for 18 yards and a TD.
The Redskins are a collection of underachievers! The talent evaluators need to do a better job of picking the players to spend money on in free agency……and they need to quit trading all of their draft picks!
Carlos Rogers is out for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts with a broken thumb. Rogers will be replaced by 35 year old Troy Vincent who was signed earlier this week after the Buffalo Bills released him.
