Ravens @ Redskins Game Thread

[Spence]

HERE IS THE RELEVANT INFO FOR TODAY'S GAME. (http://www.dcprosportsreport.com/washington-redskins/ravens-redskins-schedule-tv-radio-livestream-betting-line-injuries.html)

[Spence]

UPDATE: OLB Terrell Suggs will NOT play in today's game.

[PennSkinsFan]

Suggs being out is good news for Redskins ground game and big for RGIII and the option,

[SkinsGuru]

Suggs being out is good news for Redskins ground game and big for RGIII and the option,

yeah . . . hope the skins players don't look at it as any easier and play hard . . . if the offense is smart, gets the running game going and controls the clock the skins have a pretty good shot here . . . but the defense will have to slow down rice and the passing game, primarily torrey smith deep . . . get a couple of turnovers defensively, do not turn the ball over offensively, control the clock with the running game and a win will come!!

[SkinsGuru]

very nice first drive . . . great job in the running game . . . good pass protection . . . and a TD . . . couldn't ask for more!!

[SkinsGuru]

now the defense . . . ugh . . . hopefully they are able to get some pressure on flacco as if they do they can create a couple of turnovers . . . they NEED to be able to stop rice in the running game and not let smith get behind the safeties . . .

[SkinsGuru]

not a good start on stopping the run . . . need to do a better job up front for sure!!

[Spence]

For God's sake, guys, tighten up on the run game. This is embarrassing.

[Spence]

Boldin completely uncovered. He's only their top receiver. Why cover him? Hall beaten like a drum again. And Madieu Williams late again

[SkinsGuru]

yes . . . lets not wait until halftime to make adjustments today!! . . . looks like this will have to be a good old fashioned shoot out if the skins are going to have a chance . . . Baltimore's fans must be thinking the same thing about their D!!

[Spence]

I like that our offense converted 2 of 2 on third down.

I don't like that our defense didn't even force a third down.

[Spence]

Baltimore's fans must be thinking the same thing about their D!!
They probably have some confidence that their defense will get its act together since it usually does. I don't see how any Skins fan could have that confidence.

[Spence]

Paul is a terrible receiver. He drops a pass half the time the ball is thrown to him.

[Spence]

Boy, the Skins offense looks strong. Great protection by the O-line and RG3 is just so accurate. The wideouts getting a lot of separation.

[Spence]

That was an ugly looking option play. Lucky RG3 didn't get sacked with the ball. Still, block in the back by Morgan. Nothing much went right on that play.

[Spence]

15-yard penalty. Automatic first down. On Ngata. But the Ravens get out of it due to intentional grounding.

[Spence]

Garcon, Moss, Hankerson. Everyone getting wide open right now.

[Spence]

Boy, I love how hard Morris runs. He plays like he's pissed off.

[Spence]

That looked like a TD to me. Maybe his foot was on the line.

[Spence]

Good to get another TD for Morris. He should have more. What a great drive. Two great drives. offense looks fantastic. Now, let's see if the D can get a stop

[Spence]

Skins offensive players are really playing hard.

[SkinsGuru]

yeah . . . the offense is definitely doing their part . . . now the D needs to do something . . . the best we can hope for is a turnover as without that they are not even slowing them down . . .

[Spence]

I really, really dislike football commercials. Everything is either beer or boner pills.

[Spence]

RG3: 6-8 [1 drop] for 122 yards, 1 TD, passer rating of 156.3.
Morris: 6 carries, 55 yards, 1 TD.

[Spence]

Whew, Wilson out there by himself. No safety help. That should have been a TD to Torrey Smith.

[SkinsGuru]

maybe Baltimore will do the giants did . . . penalties . . . that helps!!

[SkinsGuru]

finally a defensive 3rd down . . . unfortunately a defensive 3rd down . . . lol

[Spence]

finally a defensive 3rd down . . . unfortunately a defensive 3rd down . . . lol
Seriously. Watching our defense on third down this year has been an exercise in frustration, disappointment and negative excitement.

[Spence]

No pass rush on third down, but good coverage downfield and nice tackle by Hall.

[Spence]

Crawford on punt returns. I thought that was Moss at first. Nice job by Crawford on his first punt return in a real game.

[SkinsGuru]

well . . . the penalty helped and the D held!! . . . now for another TD!! . . .

[SkinsGuru]

Crawford on punt returns. I thought that was Moss at first. Nice job by Crawford on his first punt return in a real game.

Paul returned the kick off too . . . hmmmmm

[Spence]

Bad job by RG3. He just held the ball too long. That's not on the offensive line, that's on the QB. He had open receivers, too.

[Spence]

Paul returned the kick off too . . . hmmmmm

Banks is inactive

[Spence]

Bad pass by RG3 to Garcon on third down. He was wide open for a first down. Not a good series there for our rookie passer.

[SkinsGuru]

not a good offensive series . . . if banks is going to be inactive, then cut him!! just cut him!!

[Spence]

Good coverage on the punt by Niles Paul. Rocca crushed that ball.

[SkinsGuru]

the punt and kickoff coverage teams have been decent all year . . .

[Spence]

3rd and 13. Okay, gotta get a stop here. No 4th and 29 on us, guys. We're not Norv Turner's team anymore. Let's make this happen.

[Spence]

Dammit! Offsides by Alexander. Now 3rd and 8. Much easier.

[SkinsGuru]

another big 3rd down play . . . bad defensive play . .

[Spence]

Crap. That's a first down. Just a little chuck to Rice and that's enough.

[Spence]

Great tackle by Hall on that play. Two good tackles in open field by Hall so far.

[SkinsGuru]

great tackle by hall . . . he is such a frustrating player . . . can be real good and REAL bad . . .

[Spence]

Not great tackling by Skins there. Let's see if our defense can stiffen and hold them to a field goal. Josh Wilson just gave too much of a cushion there.

[Spence]

great tackle by hall . . . he is such a frustrating player . . . can be real good and REAL bad . . .
Yeah, he's too inconsistent to ever really be a good or reliable player

[Spence]

Dammit. Two offsides penalties. Both on third down. That's really sloppy and frustrating.

[Spence]

Hall beaten again. No safety around. No pass rush.

[SkinsGuru]

can't wait for a new secondary . . . i want one for chirstmas!!

[Spence]

Defense obviously has better things to do than play football today. Let's hope the offense is up to scoring 35 points, at least.

[SkinsGuru]

Defense obviously has better things to do than play football today. Let's hope the offense is up to scoring 35 points, at least.

yeah . . . the offense is going to have to have a HUGE game!!

[Spence]

yeah . . . the offense is going to have to have a HUGE game!!
It has to. No choice. Or we fall to 6-7

[Spence]

Wow, another fumble by Morris. I love Morris, but this is becoming a problem.

[Spence]

Field goal. Come on, defense. Hold them to a field goal.

[SkinsGuru]

HUGE fumble by Morris . . . he cannot keep this up!!! hopefully he pissed again like last week!!!

[Spence]

Redskins defense had to call timeout. Completely unprepared. Nothing unusual there.

[Spence]

Wow, that should have been a touchdown. If Kerrigan doesn't get pressure there, that's a 3rd TD pass for Flacco

[SkinsGuru]

Wow, that should have been a touchdown. If Kerrigan doesn't get pressure there, that's a 3rd TD pass for Flacco

thats what pressure does . . . we need to find a way to do that consistently . . .

[Spence]

Typical Skins defense. Ball right on the ground for them. They can't get it. Big difference between our defense and a good defense. Not the only difference, of course, but a big one.

[SkinsGuru]

cannot make a 3rd down stop again . . . need to get pressure!!

[Spence]

God, it just does not matter what our defense does on first and second down. They are so awful on third down that nothing else matters. Nothing. No pass rush. Our coverage is so painfully awful. Hall can't cover. Safeties can't cover. Linebackers can't cover. Just a complete mess in every single way.

[SkinsGuru]

now we need a TD from the offense . . . no 3 and out . . . no turnover . . . not even a FG . . .

[Spence]

now we need a TD from the offense . . . no 3 and out . . . no turnover . . . not even a FG . . .Yeah, Shanny has to adjust his thinking. Gotta figure the Ravens score every time they get the ball. Therefore, we need to do the same.

[SkinsGuru]

like the first play . . . we need to run the ball up the filed . . . eat the clock . . . and score a TD

[SkinsGuru]

young is one of my favorite players .. . he is turning out to be one of the better FB's in the league

[Spence]

Our end around runs don't seem to work too well. The problem is usually early penetration by the defense. Not sure where the breakdown in blocking is

[Spence]

Holding on the Redskins

[SkinsGuru]

didn't like the reverse call . . . but a good job by garcon turning it into a positive instead of a big loss

[Spence]

Paulsen can't go a game without committing a penalty. Boy, we need an upgrade at that position.

[SkinsGuru]

Holding on the Redskins

on paulsen again . . . he has been BAD lately

[Spence]

First down. Boy, Garcon running hard there. No first down? I thought it was.

[Spence]

What a disaster on third and one. That's what happens to us on third and one. That's the difference between a good team and a team that just comes up short. Still not smart enough as a team.

[SkinsGuru]

First down. Boy, Garcon running hard there. No first down? I thought it was.

should have been . . . then a HORRIBLE pitch . . . come on!!

[jporterweb]

What the hell was that crap?

[Spence]

And now a touchback despite having multiple chances to keep it out of the end zone. Skins just falling apart here. One mistake after another. All this stuff could be prevented if the team was playing smarter. But they're not.

[jporterweb]

should have been . . . then a HORRIBLE pitch . . . come on!!

I don't get not handing that to Young. He's gotten that I think every time this year.

[SkinsGuru]

What a disaster on third and one. That's what happens to us on third and one. That's the difference between a good team and a team that just comes up short. Still not smart enough as a team.

we haven't seen a RGIII run yet . . . are they saving it?? i like RGIII in 3rd and short . . .

[SkinsGuru]

I don't get not handing that to Young. He's gotten that I think every time this year.

agreed . . . either a hand of to morris . . . a hand off to young . . . or a designed run by RGIII . . .

[Spence]

Lots of penalties on tight ends and wideouts today. Both teams.

[SkinsGuru]

ravens are trying to help out with penalties . . . the D needs to take advantage of this . . .

[Spence]

1st and 23. I have no confidence in this defense, though...

[jporterweb]

We gotta stop trying to be cute and just play some hard nosed football.

[Spence]

ravens are trying to help out with penalties . . . the D needs to take advantage of this . . .
Dunno why the Ravens are bothering to run the ball. I don't understand why anyone runs the ball on our defense. Just throw. Even when we know what's coming we can't stop it.

[SkinsGuru]

watch out for torrey smith here . . . i have a feeling they are going to go deep!!

[jporterweb]

3rd and 17 so.... First down Ravens?

[SkinsGuru]

now a chance for a stop . .. 3 - 17 . . . still not too confident . . .

[Spence]

3rd and 17. I give the Ravens at least a 50% chance of converting this. No joke. They screwed this drive up with penalties and a stupid decision to run the ball. They know they have to throw now, so that should be enough. Our defense knows they have to pass, but that doesn't matter.

[SkinsGuru]

k . . . now some points before half time please!!

[Spence]

Stupid give-up play by Ravens. Should have thrown the ball downfield. We're not threat to intercept it or defend the pass.

i was right there with you . . . i have never had less confidence in the Redskins ability to stop the pass . . .

[Spence]

Right now that Morris fumble is the difference in the game.

[jporterweb]

Moss has to catch that...

[SkinsGuru]

what a throw . . . gotta catch that!!

[SkinsGuru]

big flag . . . big first down . . .

[Spence]

The ref just a few feet from Moss on that interference play did not throw the flag. How the hell did he miss that? What's he looking at?

[jporterweb]

Griffin is just a little off today...

[Spence]

God, these penalties are just maddening. Most of them on our wideouts or tight end.

[jporterweb]

I think that's penalty could actually be a good thing because it gives them time to regroup for third down.

[jporterweb]

...or not

[Spence]

Wow, this second quarter has just been a disaster. One screw-up after another. Punt, fumble, punt, punt. Penalty, penalty, penalty on offense. Defense just having better things to do than play football.

Second quarter a complete mess. Absolutely nothing has gone right.

[Spence]

I think that's penalty could actually be a good thing because it gives them time to regroup for third down.
Nah, that penalty was a big deal. On third and two you can just throw a very quick pass to Moss. No way to defend it. That penalty was incredibly costly. Skins just not smart enough. They have to hope the Ravens start to make mistakes because the Redskins are not smart enough to stop making mistakes.

[jporterweb]

Wow, this second quarter has just been a disaster. One screw-up after another. Punt, fumble, punt, punt. Penalty, penalty, penalty on offense. Defense just having better things to do than play football.

Second quarter a complete mess. Absolutely nothing has gone right.

Well, lets hope we can adjust like we did last week. That's all we can hope for. This team not looking the same as the last 3 weeks right now... BTW props to RGIII for fighting and almost picking up that first down.

I know, I was just hoping for the best with that comment. Should learn to stop doing that with this team.

[Spence]

Ravens get the ball first in the second half. Big chance for them to get a big lead and force our offense to change its game plan.

[Spence]

I know, I was just hoping for the best with that comment. Should learn to stop doing that with this team.
I know what you mean. :D

[PennSkinsFan]

Redskins need to run the ball. Stop all the option crap, ball is wet. Run the ball. Morris should have 25 carries or more today.

[jporterweb]

Redskins need to run the ball. Stop all the option crap, ball is wet. Run the ball. Morris should have 25 carries or more today.

Yep, That's why I don't frown on Morris as much with the weather on that fumble. He comes out and just tears up the Ravens D. Then we start getting cute and playing games. There's no reason we aren't at the worst tied at 21, except for getting cute with the football.

[SkinsGuru]

hopefully there will be some good half time adjustments by the D . . . and hopefully some bad ones by the Baltimore O, like the Giants did last week!!

[SkinsGuru]

not a big hall fan . . . BUT that was a HORRIBLE call . . . HUGE TO!!!!

[jporterweb]

Stupid hit by Hall, but THATS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!! Bout time the D does soemthing.

[Spence]

Finally. A turnover. That's what we needed because that's all we can do. We can't stop them the way a normal defense would.

[SkinsGuru]

Stupid hit by Hall, but THATS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!! Bout time the D does soemthing.

it was a BAD call IMO . . shoulder to the chest is not a hit up high . . .

[Spence]

Skins need to score here. Really must

[jporterweb]

not a big hall fan . . . BUT that was a HORRIBLE call . . . HUGE TO!!!!

Call was kinda weak, but still stupid hit... no reason to hit him, he saw it wasn't caught.

[Spence]

Wow, Morris is just an angry runner.

[SkinsGuru]

NICE strong run by Morris . . . hold on to the ball young in!!

[Spence]

Call was kinda weak, but still stupid hit... no reason to hit him, he saw it wasn't caught.I agree. What was the point of that hit? Not vicious, but clearly after the play was over. No reason to do it. Just stupid.

[SkinsGuru]

Run the damn ball!!

[Spence]

Wow, another failure on third down. We're gonna lose this game if this keeps up. Stop barking at the officials and start playing better, guys.

[SkinsGuru]

yikes . . . long field goal attempt . . . Cobra Kai!!

[SkinsGuru]

still very nice to have a decent kicker!!

[jporterweb]

Wow, another failure on third down. We're gonna lose this game if this keeps up. Stop barking at the officials and start playing better, guys.


Yea but he was kinda hanging on Morgan on that one.

[Spence]

Wow, great kick. 48 yards on a wet field. Great job by Forbath.

Still, that's a failure. Offense has just fallen apart since the first quarter. We needed a TD. Ravens turned the ball over in their own territory. That should have been a TD. Baltimore has to feel good about that.

agreed . . . we cannot afford to score FG's with our defense . . .

[Spence]

Morris: 90 yards on 15 carries. 6 yards per carry, 1 TD, 1 turnover.

[jporterweb]

Morris: 90 yards on 15 carries. 6 yards per carry, 1 TD, 1 turnover.

He's a beast... without a doubt.

[Spence]

Very impressed by the way the Ravens defense has adjusted. Skins offense was humiliating them in the first quarter. They fixed whatever problems they had and have done a great job since.

[Spence]

Ravens running game is killing us on first down.

[Spence]

Boy, we're just getting gashed on the ground. Not stopping the run. Not stopping the pass. Maybe the worst performance by our defense in a season filled with bad defensive performances.

[Spence]

Gotta hold them to a FG. Then gotta score a TD on offense. Then have to start thinking about kicking on sides in the third quarter, just to keep the ball away from their offense.

[Spence]

This defense is comically bad.

[jporterweb]

Boy, we're just getting gashed on the ground. Not stopping the run. Not stopping the pass. Maybe the worst performance by our defense in a season filled with bad defensive performances.

The tackling is the most atrocious I've seen all year.

[Spence]

Ravens averaging over 7 yards per carry. Disgraceful

[SkinsGuru]

the redskins run d statistics only look decent because they are so easy to pass on . . . the one stat, yards per carry is bad . . . the d is just bad

[Spence]

We're not even forcing the Ravens to pass. They're just running the ball down the field. This is like Oklahoma v. Vanderbilt circa 1987

[Spence]

the redskins run d statistics only look decent because they are so easy to pass on . . . the one stat, yards per carry is bad . . . the d is just badRight. I'm tired of hearing how good our run defense is. It isn't. It's just not as bad as the pass defense. At least, not until today.

[Spence]

Jarvis Jenkins actually made a play. Has hardly made any plays at all this year.

[SkinsGuru]

need a big 3rd down stop . . . hold em to a FG!!

[jporterweb]

Omfg the defense steps up again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SkinsGuru]

Jarvis Jenkins actually made a play. Has hardly made any plays at all this year.

so was he over hyped ?? or is he not all the way back from injury??

[jporterweb]

need a big 3rd down stop . . . hold em to a FG!!

How about they do one better lol!

[Spence]

Unbelievable. Flacco didn't see the edge blitz. How does he not know Ryan Kerrigan is coming after him? Then he throws the ball instead of just covering up and kicking a field goal.

That was a really bad play by Flacco. He didn't recognize the obvious blitz and then made a horrible decision to throw the ball anyway.

[SkinsGuru]

HUGE PICK!! come on offense . . . time to step up, score a TD and take the league . . .

[Spence]

so was he over hyped ?? or is he not all the way back from injury??
All I can tell you is that he absolutely dominated as a rookie in training camp and the first three games of the preseason. Every day in training camp he was kicking ass. Our linemen couldn't handle him. Then he got hurt. Hasn't been the same since.

[PennSkinsFan]

Great pressure by Kerrigan

[SkinsGuru]

All I can tell you is that he absolutely dominated as a rookie in training camp and the first three games of the preseason. Every day in training camp he was kicking ass. Our linemen couldn't handle him. Then he got hurt. Hasn't been the same since.

well sometimes it takes a extra year to come back . . . hopefully that is the case here . . . he needs to have confidence in his knee too . . .

[Spence]

Jeebus, Morris is running like a maniac. So is Rice. Great work from both teams' running backs today.

[SkinsGuru]

Jeebus, Morris is running like a maniac. So is Rice. Great work from both teams' running backs today.

actually fun to watch such a battle . . . wish the D would help Morris out . . .

[SkinsGuru]

time for RGIII to run for one . . .

[Spence]

He's short. The Skins should go for it.

Ravens defense has done a great job bottling up RG3

[SkinsGuru]

soo close . . . damn . . . com on cobra kai!!

[SkinsGuru]

love the Cobra Kai!!! not settling for a FG, but making them when you have to!!

[Spence]

Jeebus, Forbath is the new Legatron. Dude really kicks the hell out of the ball.

Still, we're trailing and really having problems on third down again. I thought we were getting past that, but I guess I was wrong. Incredible to be 6-6 when we're just about the worst team in the NFL on third down -- on offense and defense

[Spence]

Oh, damn it, Forbath! That's the ball on the 40. What a screw up

[oldschoolskins]

Can't believe everyone accepted the spot on RGIII run...went back and looked at it 3 times, and sure looked like he left the field in play and got well past the line of gain in the air.

i don't understand forbaths kick offs . . . his field goals are long enough that if he kicked his kick offs that way they would sail out of the end zone . . . why the trouble on kick offs??

[SkinsGuru]

HUGE hold by the D!! . . . now lets get this lead!!!

[SkinsGuru]

Can't believe everyone accepted the spot on RGIII run...went back and looked at it 3 times, and sure looked like he left the field in play and got well past the line of gain in the air.

the ball has to be in bounds as it crosses the first down marker . . .

[oldschoolskins]

Alright Griffin, deliver the goods. Play calling at end of last series was lame, Kyle needs to step up too. D has me believing but need to give them a reason to keep scrapping.

Oh we'll...

[SkinsGuru]

well . . . up to the D . . . again . . . come on D!!!

[Spence]

Incredibly ugly offensive sequence for the Skins. Followed up with a bad penalty call. Trouble.

[Spence]

i don't understand forbaths kick offs . . . his field goals are long enough that if he kicked his kick offs that way they would sail out of the end zone . . . why the trouble on kick offs??
It's baffling. I'll try to get an answer to it.

[SkinsGuru]

Incredibly ugly offensive sequence for the Skins. Followed up with a bad penalty call. Trouble.

not looking too pretty . . . lets hope the Ravens keep screwing up . . .

[Spence]

Got some pressure on Flacco on third down and great coverage and tackle by Alexander.

[SkinsGuru]

great job by the D again . . .

[Spence]

Offense needs to make something happen here. Also needs to protect the ball so deep in our own territory.

[Spence]

great job by the D again . . .
But can they keep it up? And where were they in the first half?

[Spence]

Ravens doing a great job staying disciplined, keeping contain on Griffin. They mind their rushing lanes, they key on RG3. Very smart by the Ravens defense. Well coached.

[Spence]

ANOTHER 3 and out! Lord! Our offense has just gone into hibernation since the first quarter. Just a flat-out drop by Garcon.

[SkinsGuru]

you have to make that catch!!

[SkinsGuru]

Ravens doing a great job staying disciplined, keeping contain on Griffin. They mind their rushing lanes, they key on RG3. Very smart by the Ravens defense. Well coached.

and well staffed too . . .

[Spence]

Don't like the Skins not covering running backs in the passing game.

[SkinsGuru]

the D needs to hold them too a FG . . . and leave some time on the clock for RGIII to work some magic!!

[Spence]

Bengals 19-10 over the Cowboys. I sure hope the Skins don't squander an opportunity here.

[Spence]

DeAngelo Hall gave up on that play. He just stopped trying to tackle. Disgraceful. First, to get beaten. Then, to just not tackle. Really, really bad. Hall has been terrible today

[Spence]

Wow. Hot knife thru butter. Domination in every possible way on that drive. That's just varsity v. junior varsity.

[SkinsGuru]

horrible Defense . . . well . . . a score and a 2 point will tie it . . . come on boys!!

[SkinsGuru]

a nice return here by Paul would be good . . .

[Spence]

Looks like a fumble and Ravens recovery to me.

[Spence]

a nice return here by Paul would be good . . .
Yeah...that didn't happen.

[jporterweb]

He doesn't have control of that, it's OB should be Skins ball.

[SkinsGuru]

He doesn't have control of that, it's OB should be Skins ball.

close . . . looked like he got control and lost it . . . not sure how they are going to call this . . .

[Spence]

Wow, what a lucky break for the Skins. They don't deserve that break, but they got it.

[SkinsGuru]

WOW . . . lucky break for sure . . . now make them pay!!

[Spence]

Offense looks very confused and uncertain right now. RG3 has happy feet in the pocket. He's not reacting well to the pressure and the great way the Ravens have bottled him up. Let's see if he can recover

[Spence]

Wow, Ravens defense is just so smart. So disciplined. They've lost so many players, but the guys who replace them are so smart and know exactly what they should do. Very impressed with the way they've kept RG3 from hurting them in the read option.

[SkinsGuru]

Nice job holding the ball by hankerson . . .

[SkinsGuru]

Wow, Ravens defense is just so smart. So disciplined. They've lost so many players, but the guys who replace them are so smart and know exactly what they should do. Very impressed with the way they've kept RG3 from hurting them in the read option.

they have been a great D for a long time . . . their backups have been in the system for a long time and are the poor ones get filtered out as the starters have been so stable . . .

[SkinsGuru]

bad sack . . . redskins offensive line not looking too good . . . gonna be a huge 3rd down after the break . . .

[Spence]

Wow. Polumbus just got beaten like a drum again.

CB, S, RT, TE.

Big areas of need for this team.

[Spence]

bad sack . . . redskins offensive line not looking too good . . . gonna be a huge 3rd down after the break . . .
4 down situation.

[SkinsGuru]

not good!!

[Spence]

Better get Kirk Cousins in there.

[jporterweb]

His leg looks broken

[jporterweb]

Obviously isn't, but it looked like it for a moment there...

[jporterweb]

Alright, lets get RG3 back in there... lets go guys.

[SkinsGuru]

nice job by moss . . . RGIII is tough, but that takes his legs out of the game a bit . . .

[Spence]

That's the right call. Clearly intentional grounding. Skins just keep making stupid mistakes.

[Spence]

Two intentional grounding calls on RG3 today.

[SkinsGuru]

thats not good at all . . .

[Spence]

Kirk Cousins will have to finish this game.

[jporterweb]

You have to give RGIII all the credit in the world. That boy tried his damndest to come back in.

[SkinsGuru]

we'll get to see how far cousins has come . . .

[Spence]

I hope RG3 isn't done for the year.

yeah . . . thats ligament damage . . . just hope its not torn

[jporterweb]

In case people question drafting Cousins, I point to this. No faith in Grossman in a situation like this.

[Spence]

Great play by Cousins. Just fantastic. Now they need to get 2

[SkinsGuru]

nice pass . . . NEED this 2 point

[Spence]

RG3's legs would really come in handy right here.

Do you run or pass? Generally, teams pass on the two point conversion, but we might be better running. Morris is a hard runner.

[Spence]

Cousins ran it instead of RG3. Hilarious

[SkinsGuru]

nice job by the rook

[SkinsGuru]

i called it . . . the defense was NOT expecting it . . . great play call by Kyle!!

[Spence]

Great call by Kyle Shanahan. Love the guts. No way the Ravens are playing for the run with Cousins in the game. Just a great, great call.

[SkinsGuru]

i see baltimore playing for OT here . . .

[Spence]

All right, defense. Don't screw this up. Give the other rookie a chance to save this game for us.

[Spence]

i see baltimore playing for OT here . . .
Thank goodness. I don't trust our defense even in that situation.

[SkinsGuru]

Thank goodness. I don't trust our defense even in that situation.

no kidding . . . thats what i was thinking too . . . lol . . . how sad

[Spence]

Okay, defense. Can't give up a TD here.

[SkinsGuru]

Okay, defense. Can't give up a TD here.

a TO would be nice!!

[Spence]

Forbath better not kick this out of bounds

[Spence]

a TO would be nice!!
Gettin' greedy, Guru! :D

[SkinsGuru]

Gettin' greedy, Guru! :D

almost our only chance . . . lol

[SkinsGuru]

big 3rd down play here!!

[Spence]

Not exactly an impressive pass rush on third down, but coverage must have been great. For once.

[SkinsGuru]

big 3rd down stop!!!

[Spence]

Wow. What a job by the rookie. And to think he wouldn't even be active today if Cedric Griffin hadn't been suspended for PEDs.

[SkinsGuru]

Not exactly an impressive pass rush on third down, but coverage must have been great. For once.

once again much better in the 2nd half . . . not great ,but much better

[Spence]

No screw-ups. Finish this game right now.

[SkinsGuru]

HUGE return . . . no use morris to get this closer!!

[Spence]

This is the time when Forbath will miss a 45 yard field goal. Need to get some yards here. First and five. Let's get a first down with the running game so we can make this a chip shot.

[Spence]

Forbath now! I'd have waited, but whatever.

[SkinsGuru]

come on Cobra Kai!!!

[Spence]

I'm nervous as hell.

[Spence]

Damn Bengals blew it. Unbelievable.

[Spence]

So nervous

[Spence]

Hoo-freaking-ray!!!

[SkinsGuru]

HUGE win . . . but . . . how bad RGIII's leg is will determine the outcome of the rest of the season!!

[jporterweb]

HUGE win . . . but . . . how bad RGIII's leg is will determine the outcome of the rest of the season!!

Yea lets just hope he's gonna be ok...

[Spence]

huge win . . . But . . . How bad rgiii's leg is will determine the outcome of the rest of the season!!ditto

Looks like Eagles beat Tampa 22-21 with no time on the clock. That's great for us.

nicely done . . . don't usually want the eagle to win, but that puts us a game and a tie breaker over TB

[Spence]

Damn Bengals choked away a 9-point lead in the fourth. Let the Cowboys win. Saints now 7-0 over the Giants in the 4th

yeah . . . not any more . . .

It was stupid putting Griffin back in when he was hurt. I hope that didn't make it worse. That's the same knee he had surgery on when he was at Baylor in 2009, torn ACL took months to heal.

I'm sure it's not a tear, Shanny even said he still wanted to go back in after the second time he came out. I doubt if it was torn even with adrenaline he would've had the wanted to go back in there.

It's best to let a doctor decide that. When he tore it in 2009 he insisted on just taping it up and going back in. That didn't help I'm sure.

MRI is clear. No tear. Right knee sprain.
