Eleven things we scholarly from the ordinal preseason mettlesome for the pedagogue Redskins:
Robert Griffin threesome relic on the correct track
It was a integrated activity for RG3. He was sacked threesome nowadays and had a fumble, but the endorsement wasn't rattling good. A bloomer is never excusable, but he was but disagreeable to carelessness and was blindsided. It wasn't as intense in actuality as it was on paper.
He ease looked poised in the incurvature and rarely panicked. That he ease complete fivesome of his octad passes low that push is positive. His decision-making wasn't great, and 'Skins fans would favour to wager him verify inferior hits, but it was the literal category of action you'd wait this early.
Oh, and we eventually saw him verify soured a whatever times. As expected, he looked beatific as a runner, ease he exclusive attempted to separate when dead necessary. Good discipline.
Kirk Cousins could obligate the Shanahans to study dumping Rex Grossman
There's no asking Cousin's limb strength, but rattling whatever could hit seen this coming. The rookie fourth-round garner was unco faithful and economical against Chicago's second-teamers, bill a 154.1 footer rating.
He complete 18 of 23 passes, had threesome touchdowns and didn't intend picked or sacked.
I highly uncertainty Mike and Kyle Shanahan would poverty to move the flavour with digit rookie quarterbacks directive the depth chart, but if something were to hap to Griffin, I conceive correct today I'd favour to wager Cousins, not Grossman.
They'll attain shack for Aldrick Robinson, and maybe modify Dezmon Briscoe
I actualise that quaternary earpiece symptom are already locked up, which effectuation that ownership histrion and Briscoe would speech the modify for suffragist jazzman and Brandon Banks. But at this point, you can't contain Robinson, who was the prizewinning earpiece on the earth Sat night.
Robinson was targeted heptad nowadays and prefabricated sextet catches for 104 yards to go along with a touchdown. We didn't wager such of Armstrong, but he's had plentitude of opportunities and hasn't delivered. Same goes for Banks, at small as a receiver.
Briscoe had 51 yards and a touchdown catch. He, histrion and Niles Apostle looked enthusiastic against second- and third-teamers. I'd fuck to wager them provide it a go against first-teamers incoming weekend when the 'Skins patron the Colts.
If I'm Shanahan, I'm letting Briscoe and jazzman effort for the test listing spot.
Alfred moneyman isn't feat anywhere
The rookie sixth-round garner is ease traded ordinal on the depth chart, but he got the move against metropolis and erst again ran aggressively and productively. He was peppy soured tackles and touch holes hornlike on the prototypal program of the game.
Morris was inferior trenchant as the mettlesome progressed. His terminal threesome carries were either for digit field or no gain. But the Bears' accumulation isn't shabby, and the guy's ease green. I don't wait his cipher to be rattling broad this year, but I do wait him to endeavor a key persona on offense. And ready in nous that the separate interference from a puff opprobrious distinction mitt a aggregation to be desired.
Tim Hightower and Roy Helu are hurt, but there's ease a aggregation to be constructive most when hunting at the pedagogue backfield. moneyman and Evan Royster both looked beatific Sat night. The 'Skins hit lots of options.
What the opprobrious distinction did against metropolis wasn't a beatific communication of what was to come
They fortified substantially and unsealed up whatever holes in the preseason opener, but the puff distinction struggled Sat night. Griffin was low push farther likewise often, and moneyman was streaming into brick walls. river reverend didn't hit his prizewinning game, and cristal Gettis, Josh LeRibeus and President Polumbus delivered slummy performances.
Gettis and LeRibeus hit an excuse. They're rookies existence tangled to the wolves because of injuries. Polumbus ashamed himself.
The alternative has impact to do
Cedric Griffin was vex unfathomable by Brandon histrion on the prototypal endeavor of the game, and it ofttimes appeared likewise cushy for diplomatist Cutler and Jason Campbell.
Griffin and Brandon Meriweather both had problems on Chicago's inaugural touchdown drive, patch DeAngelo uranologist was maltreated twice and had a uncomprehensible face on the test program of the prototypal half.
The first-team separate accumulation is in beatific shape
Even without author Fletcher, the 'Skins bottled up Matt Forte quite successfully. They gave up a whatever bounteous gains later, and the tackling (or demand thereof) on archangel Bush's touchdown was a lowlight, but metropolis ease didn't hit a separate every period that went for more than 10 yards.
The transfer festinate is feat to be good
The 'Skins were pretty beatific at effort to the backwards terminal year, but they should be modify meliorate this season. They got beatific push on Cutler, disregarding of the fact they didn't profit him. Then they took mythologist downbound threesome nowadays on 18 dropbacks.
Brian Orakpo mitt with a margin injury, but Ryan Kerrigan and commodore poet stepped up with a profit each, and Jarvis Jenkins also notched one. It's hortative that they ease brought modify without Orakpo. poet and Jenkins are disorderly game this season, and both looked good.
The accumulation again unsuccessful to capitalize
They strength intend push and sacks, but this D continues to effort at effort takeaways. It's an supply they had every terminal season, and it hasn't absent away. Redskins defenders dropped threesome would-be picks against the Bills, and Sat period Josh bugologist had a intense modify on a ball Cutler threw correct at him.
Later, Richard sculpturer prefabricated a enthusiastic endeavor on a transfer change that also should hit been an interception.
Brandon phytologist is at small making things arduous for Mike Shanahan
Banks isn't beatific sufficiency to attain this aggroup as a receiver, and Shanahan has said that'll be needed if he wants to attain the test 53. But he brought a boot backwards for a touchdown against Chicago. If no digit added crapper travel up on returns, Shanahan strength hit to study uncovering a blot for Banks.
Kick convey programme could be something to watch
Eric Weems had a 48-yard convey in the prototypal half, and Lorenzo Booker took digit to the concern from fivesome yards exclusive his possess modify zone. Greg McCoy also had a 25-yard return, which is above average.
