The Redskins did suffer from some vanilla playcalling, but also keep in mind this is the 7th different offensive system for Jason Campbell in 8 years. That has to be a real pain in the fucking ass. The Redskins' run game was held in check largely all game save a nice run or two, and the Giants defense was disruptive up front all game long. The Giants started to play a vanilla defense towards the end of the 3rd and into the 4th and let the Redskins have a lot underneath.

I feel bad for Jason Campbell. I think they are limited due to the implementation of another offense yet again. They might get the ball rolling sometime, but not for a few weeks at least.

Gonzo 09-05-2008 05:51 PM

I think they should of at least tried to get Cooley involved more. It appears from a fan POV that they did not. I don't know if the Giants gameplanned specifically against him to take him out but Cooley only had 1 catch.

Kris P Lettus 09-05-2008 06:54 PM

I'd be pissed if he was my starting TE on the FFL..

Rams gonna beat the Eagles.

Gonzo 09-05-2008 09:34 PM

I hope so. I was watching some Steven Jackson highlights the other day. Dude is a tank.

I was about to say the same thing but then realised they won it in 2006 lol. Only cause the Cowboys did their annual late fuck up though ;)

SammyG 09-05-2008 09:52 PM

I dunno. Have a really good feeling about Sunday's game. Avery is out, but whatever, Eagles have their top two wideouts out. Jus gotta focus on Westbrook.

*shrug* I've spent years using scrubs at TE for fantasy leagues. Bubba Franks usually...so nothing new.

I dunno I disagree. I think Samuels realized he got beat and just decided to hold in order to protect his QB from getting blind sided. I don't think he meant to roll up on Kiwi's ankle like that (he went right over to him right after it happened to make sure he was alright)

There was really no chance to change the outcome of the game with that play obviously, but you don't want the Redskins to just quit and lay down. That wouldn't exactly look very good.

Gonzo 09-06-2008 01:55 AM

Yeah I'm with Stima, you gotta expect them to give an effort, regardless of the fact that the game's outcome wasn't changing.

Gonzo 09-06-2008 01:57 AM

If you want to talk about fines, I forgot which OL it was but one of the Redskin players gave Antonio Pierce a head butt when he had no helmet on. Both players were guilty of getting into it but this guy clearly leaned in and bopped him with his facemask.

And they should, but I'm confident enough in my team to pick them.

Kiwi disagrees too, which is understandable I guess. He said there is no room for a play like that in professional football and if Samuels knew he was beat he should have just let Kiwi go then. He said something about how he got knocked down earlier in on the game (Clinton Portis BLEW him up when he was trying to pass rush) and Campbell should be able to handle getting knocked down too.

Crimson 09-06-2008 05:26 PM

Bring on the Brownies..I hope the Barbarian just steamrolls thru their defense

Holy hell, yeah that was a hell of a 'chip'.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 09-06-2008 09:43 PM

Too bad it was a useless block as Jason Campbell threw a 3 yard dump off pass on that play when it was 3rd and 8 lol

Gonzo 09-07-2008 02:09 AM

Yeah. It was on a garbage play. I think there was something heavy going on back and forth there though that caused Portis to lay into Kiwi like that. I think it might have been in retaliation. Brandon Jacobs and Marcus Washington were getting into almost every play beforehand.

Kris P Lettus 09-07-2008 02:12 AM

SO FUCKING READY

12 HOURS

Jesus Shuttlesworth 09-07-2008 03:40 AM

Jacobs absolutely trucked LeRon Landry in the game too I think before that hit but I dunno Portis is one of the better pass blocking running backs in the league. I think he just likes to lay dudes out.

Pretty happy football is finally back

El Fangel 09-07-2008 03:47 AM

Hold on, You guys started the season thread before the season started. BLASPHEMOUS!

Kris P Lettus 09-07-2008 03:50 AM

10 hours..

OMG

El Fangel 09-07-2008 03:52 AM

Krispy, a question

Are you planning on sleeping tonight, or even attempting to?

Yeah they mentioned that while replaying the hit. Pretty awesome that football is back. Its the best time of the year for me personally. You know you're excited when you're talking about a chip block on an unimportant play in the first game of the season.

I went and laid down and smoked a bowl, but then I saw that Die Hard was on.. Now I am back up for no apparent reason..

So, prolly not..

El Fangel 09-07-2008 04:28 AM

If you tell us you fell asleep 5 mins before kick-off I will die laughing.

#1-norm-fan 09-07-2008 07:37 AM

I'm so fucking juiced for tomorrow morning I can't sleep. Sundays are worth it again!!!

Evil Vito 09-07-2008 12:05 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Being a Giants fan, it's hard to get overly psyched about today as they've already played...prolly gonna be flipping around to see the beginnings of any of the 1PM games on here before the Mets start at 2.

Next Sunday's gonna feel awesome tho</font> :cool:

Supreme Olajuwon 09-07-2008 12:43 PM

I've had trouble getting real amped up about the season or even talking that much about it. In fact this is the first time I've even posted in this thread. Just couldn't get excited with all the drama about the Bengals' offseason and how they're picked to finish 3rd or 4th and all that.

But now that it's here and there's actually something to watch I'm pretty pumped.

Boomer 09-07-2008 02:05 PM

MATTTTTT RYANNNNNNNNNNNN

Evil Vito 09-07-2008 02:10 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Matt Ryan would be the man if that TD would have been to Roddy White instead</font> :(

Boomer 09-07-2008 02:14 PM

Yeah I've got Roddy in fantasy league too. No matter.

Boomer 09-07-2008 02:17 PM

Yeah guys...the Falcons suck. They sure do.

-edit- I know we are facing the Lions, but come on. After last year I can't imagine a better start.

UmbrellaCorporation 09-07-2008 02:21 PM

What the hell is going on with Brady? I'm hearing he got jacked up pretty bad.

Please don't let it be true. :( :( :(

FearedSanctity 09-07-2008 02:24 PM

Had his leg planted to throw and one of the Chiefs lunged for his leg trying to sack him and hit his knee. Kinda just folded over, looked pretty bad

Evil Vito 09-07-2008 02:31 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Well if Brady's out for any length of time I lost that league.

...however, isn't it ironic that Brady goes down in the game where he's not listed on the injury report for the first time in like 4 years?</font> :o

Crimson 09-07-2008 02:36 PM

Wow..'the Burner' Turner is tearing it up. Brady left the game ,probably nothing serious..
