    The Offence really need to sit down with the Defence and get some tips on scoring touchdowns.

    It's strange isn't it? The defence is awful and gives up a million yards a game but they've now got 3 TDs now as well.

    Maybe we could try swapping the two teams around? Not like it could make things any worse... =/

    This is bad. The Raiders are a team that is pretty poor anyway and is without its 1st choice QB and is now without its star RB and a it's starting full back but they're still controlling the ball.

    And we manage to win a game. Woo.

    On the plus side, the rest of the NFC East is having a hard time - The whole division lost today. Might not be about being the best for us, just the least ****. No way anyone out of that division is taking a wildcard though.

    Who cares about a wild card one win behind the division lead now! :-)

    Romo/Bryant are going to destroy the secondary next week.

    Me and you would destroy our secoundary:D

    Yeah, any optimism I had about next week faded fast during that last game. ****...

    Imo it would be exactly like Dallas to go out after that next week and play like total ****. I nearly expect it tbh.

    For some reason you guys seem pessimistic. Did you see Dallas's defence? As bad if not worse than ours, the Broncos defence was abysmal last night. I'm looking forward to a 42 - 35 victory


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    I wonder what possible reason we could have to be pessimistic =p

    well if your a redskins fan its part of the DNA!

    Seriously I think we get one over on Romo next week. As long a we keep it close coming into the stretch Tony will do what Tony does .. throw an interception or two.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    I will say one thing for our Defence this year, they're a pretty decent Offence, so if Romo tosses them the ball, they should do well with it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley


    Hopefully, RGIII is getting closer to 100% and now that's he's had 4 games and a week off, he'll be better than he has been so far. If he still can't out run linebackers who chase him out of the pocket which he hasn't been able to do so far, they don't have a chance.

    So who's your money on in the D'Angelo Hall vs. Dez Bryant match up?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley


    Not happy with RGIII saying he's deliberately looking for late hits when he gets to the sideline. We al know he's doing it but for God's sake, don't say it. He'll get pummelled this week and the refs will keep their flags in the pockets.

    Never mind his performances on the field, he's gone from last year being a very mature for his age player, saying the right things and being a credit to himself to this year saying stupid stuff and being an embarrassment


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Anyone watch that game? I gotta say, I expected the Bears to take us to pieces, was pleasantly surprised. Though as a a Morris owner in Fantasy, I don't think I like Helu Jr anymore.

    Happy with the win but there is still plenty to be worried about: Merriweather being a tool for starters, poor tackling, giving up big plays etc.

    You gotta remember that half the Bears' starters were on the sidelines for the second half.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,208 ✭✭✭shamrock55


    Looks like meriweather is gonna get at least a 1 game ban


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    It's official, 2 weeks out. Hopefully it gets him to cop the **** on.

    I think your being overly critical here.

    Redskins looked decent at the weekend but the bears really were banged up.

    This may sound crazy but we could win the next four. We can score points against this Denver pass defence just not sure the defence can hold Manning coming off an emotional loss. I would not like to playing Fantasy against him next week.

    That said after Denver we have Chargers, Minny and Philly so we could turn into week 11 at 5-5 and then have probably 4 winnable games of the 6 remaining so 9-7 finish good enough for the division lead? Probably not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    I would not put money on us next week, no way. The next 3 weeks, sure, but I really don't think we have our **** together enough to put up a fight against this seasons Broncos.

    the Broncos pass d is terrible, jordan Reed looks the real deal and with Garcon , Helu and Morris I actually think we might score a bit against them. Probably not enough to win but hey there is always a chance.

    Love the overs in the game anyway! :-)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    It could be a high scoring game alright, but I'd be shocked if we end up with the higher one.

    I'm not too upset about this. While they don't have anyone to replace him and Peyton will probably rip Bacari Rambo or whoever plays in his place to pieces but you can't keep giving up 15 yard penalties for unsportsmanlike contact. It's killing the team. It's not like they were bad calls and he got hosed by the refs either. He seriously needs to sit down and figure out how to tackle in the new NFL.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley


    Whohoo. A stop on defence!

    Kirk Cousins time next Sunday

    Well the Broncos defence battered RG3 all game, picked off four passes and Griffin had 132 passing yards - not bad for a team with a 'terrible' pass d.

    Your right it was a very good game for the Worst Pass Defence in the league, definitely upped their game but were helped by a really ineffective RGIII

    So lads how are yee fixed for Sunday?, optimistic or do you think the Bolts will have your number. Our O has been great but our pass D is terrible so RG3 should have a better time of it.
