Giants 16, Redskins 7 at the Half

Ray - Do you think JZ will get his 1st ring around the neck from Buges?

I mentioned earlier I was eating chicken wings tonight. Well, it is actually crow, for dissing on Rock! If it were not for himm...

Thank god for tiquila to help wash this bird down.

Just come out the game looking like you did not get overwhelmed Jimbo thats all we want to see.

SMOOT IS GETTING TORCHED!!!!!!

We really need a TD or FG on this opening drive to keep it going.

What do you think was different on that last drive besides the field position? Campbell looked like he had a little more time, but maybe, just maybe, he's getting a little more comfortable.

I hope.

Seriously, can someone high-five Santana for me? Here I was thinking the game was already over...HAIL

Well I stopped making out with Vinny long enough to see that we've finally scored. Awesome.

Don't forget fans to spend tons of $$$$ at Fed Ex this season.

Now, kiss me some more Vinny.

Eating crow as well

Curz
it takes a big man to admit he is wrong. But seeing that you are not a big man... well I am not sure what to say. :-)

give Colt the 2nd half.. please give us a chance at least

Let's hope Zorn makes some serious half time adjustments. Also, I'm hoping more D. Evens on run downs.

Dude, if you're going to give Mighty-Mite a high five, what are you gonna give to Rock and the kick return unit for giving us great field position to score?

This is pitiful. Jason and the offense are completely out of sync. And has a draft pick (other than the punter) played this half?

why is the d only rushing four guys? Weak. And Campbell needs to get rid of the ball quicker... the west coast O only works with a qb quick release

Colt Colt Colt
JC is a washed up hack.

TE,

It's moot now, but I would have gone for 2 to make it a one score game. Making the PAT puts us down by 9. Missing a 2 PT conversion puts us down by 10. Both require two scores.

Giants won't be able to weather an F5 ZORNADO in the second half!

The Giants Completely pwned the Redskins for 26 minutes. I had the Special teams rated as a pick'em and Rock Cartwright came through big time.

Because of Rock the Redskins are back in this game. Now if Jason and company can show some life in the 2nd half the Skins can make a game out of this.

I am sure jsano gently strokes his meat each time the Redskins get penalized or the Giants get a first down.

Let's do this! 16-14 comin' on.....

can we get a sideline reporter who either is a player or wears makeup?

Even I can catch and cover better than Smed Froot!

with smoot "covering" plaxico, why would manning throw it anywhere else?

Hey, I am all of 210 lbs. Just not that tall!

I was asked will Buges give JZ a ring around the neck?

Interesting question.
Don't know.

Perhaps, Danny or Vinny will.

On the other hand, JZ may ring the neck of each of the DBs if they don't start defending some passes, instead of being content to simply tackle Giants after they easily catch the pass.

well u still got 20 lbs on me

Didn't see the beep.

JZ told Andrea Kramer that Campbell needs to read the defense, not just focus on one guy. I can't fathom J. Gibbs saying that to a reporter.

Sorry gang.
My ignorance, I missed this.

But what does the GU on the NYG uniform point to?

Thanks

skins need to open up the offense- the blocking sucks

Moss appears to have lost his toupee, too. And he doesn't even wear one.

This play calling is like what someone does when they first play Madden and don't know anything.

Two runs, right up the middle.

Ray - GU = Gene Upshaw. All teams wearing them this week and maybe season.

Santana was tackled before the pass was actually complete.

Alex, dl, and the rest of the REAL bloggers, we'll hold it down do doubt!

While I'm a fan of the brewskies, I'm drinking vodka tonight. I could give a damn if I have to work tommorrow.

I need it.

Red flag and that catch by moss he was not down. no contact he had the ball

GU = Give up

Santana's lucky not to have a serious knee injury after that "tackle"

Uninspiring. Yet another 3 and out. Lets hope our D does something here other than let NY march down the field again.

LOL!!!

I just don't even know what to say.

Coach Joe is speaking right now at the Republican Convention...LOL.

Seriously.

Now, that was simple, how did I not think of that? Duh!

Thanks sfskin!

count the d-line- four guys on every play. Where is the rush? Where is the blitz? Dull and predictable

Does Madden watch the game he is commenting on? Or does he think the replays will change to show what he is saying?

Can any of these DB's catch a ball? Thank goodness they're not receivers.

I'm f'n SICK of Jacobs of trucking our dudes!

Instead of trying to tackle him, someone should just roundhouse that S.O.B.

Hands of stone.

fianlly- a blitz and it shook things up!

How many interceptions are we going to have?

I thought sure Rogers had that one.

Carlos has more drops than to

Carlos is definitely back, folks!

good grief

It is a shame that one hit Rodgers in the hands.....again.

Some things never change

Well, well, well. Rogers dropped an interception.

Surprised.

Very surprised.

Pick the f'in ball!

I meant dropped.

I was offline for the first half so this may have been covered already.

What is the point of the almighty vaunted WC offense if you aren't really going to run it?
That little confidence in Soups? (not that he's done a lot to inspire)

WIll they interview Gibbs after the speech and ask him to analyze the game? LOL

Holding.

That's 3 picks we should have....dammmit! At leats we forced the punt! 16-14 here we come. And here comes another shpt of SkYY....

Curz, I would chat with my man Jose, but I do have to be to work tomorrow :)

Oh and the Giants... THEY'RE
OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's f'n GO!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

I could catch more balls than Carlos Rogers.

Did you see who just addressed the Republican convention? Joe Gibbs.

All right D! Woo!

Umm does Jason Taylor wear unusually tight pants? Or should I simply say nice package?

Yeah I'm looking for something nice to focus on in this game.

THIS ROOKING PUNTER ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!!!! MIGOD!!!!! HIT THE WEIGHTROOM OR SOME STEROIDS YOU STICK FIGURED LITTLE GIMP!!!!

4 punts, 33 yds per punt

Nice run by 26. Should have kept going right.

LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Counter T.....yeah baby

run run run run run pass

GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO Go GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

put moss at cb

-------

Should this be a suprise? As much as Gibbs references The Almighty I'd assume he's GOP-guy #1.

I revise to 6-10.

Thanks.

I'll say this, Brooks gets hang time

okay our other punter used to shank what's this guys excuse for 30 yard punts

Our recievers suck!

No doubt they are fighting their guts out

come on de-FENCE!!!!!

Like the Urlacher Swagger commercial.

Funny

Rogers still doesn't have hands, but Durant can punt...Derrick, what do you think?

What a wasted drive. Way to go Devin, at least you caught it.

Rookie Mistake
You have to break off that route in front of the first down marker, not before it!!!!

So we punt!

Moss did the same thing.

OMG Smoot INT

DEFENSE

Did the CB just catch an INT???

Finally!!! Somebody caught an INT.

HE CAUGHT IT! YESSSSSSS!!!!

My favorite gangster movies:

10)Paid In Full

They should've made the Pacino/De Niro movie like 10-15 years ago.

Oh and... YEAH SMOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moss did the same thing.

Posted by: Curzon417 | September 4, 2008 9:01 PM

That wasn't on Moss. He was lucky to get the catch -- it was a bad throw.

UGH!!!!!

D Thomas talking smack to the DB

That's the difference between a CB seeing the ball all the way, and just seeing it for an instant and not being able to focus on it.

Way to go, Smoots.

Is it me or have we not run any running plays outside the tackles? I am getting drunk though....

CP killed that dude.

if its a running play, shouldn't we initiate the contact?

OK, according to legend (which was broken last election) the Redskins winning or losing affecting the election, is it the last game before the election, or the last home game before the election?

Alot of 3 yard routes in this offense

Clinton Portis, d-line.

Zorns' play calling makes Gibbs of last year look like Coryell.

TE, what about that 3rd down play?

Does Jason Campbell know to get a 1st down he should try throwing the ball past me?

That has GOT to be the best "chip block" of all time!!!!!

That's right Portis. Way to go Rock. Lets sustain a drive.

Rock. I'd like to see Mason make that tackle.

Special teams is BOSS

Not a Redskins fan, but I gotta give 26 props on that block!

Rock Cartright for Team MVP

Seriously, Gibbs quit, right?

TE, what about that 3rd down play?

Posted by: Curzon417 | September 4, 2008 9:04 PM

Are we talking about the same one -- the one where Campbell led him into the corner and he lost his helmet? Or a different one?

Rock. I'd like to see Mason make that tackle.

Posted by: talent evaluator | September 4, 2008 9:05 PM

Here Here!

Anyone who doesn't think Clinton Portis is DA MAN meet me out back.

All the hype is pre-game hype is over,the Giants have come down off their high and is trying to give us this game,but we wont take it.

The one before the last punt.

They DO know it's 3 downs to a first and not 4 right?

Will they please stop adding citrus flavors to drinks.

If your last name is Jamison, Jenna, I'd love to meet you out back.

Posted by: Curzon417 | September 4, 2008 9:01 PM
Hard to say if it is a rookie mistake. WCO calls for receiver to be to a set spot at a certain time. I'd be interested to hear JimZ's thoughts on that.

Smoot=hurt

Now smoot is hurt. great!

Here comes Tryon

Smoot's done, here comes Tryon.

Tryon time!

It actually looks better if you watch in low definition

Is there anyone else in your secondary who wants to get run over?

Where's TE? Now's the time to see if his prediction comes true.

Wife just asked if she could get me anything. Is CB the right answer? or is WR more appropriate?

Now we are really going to miss Springs. Will Torrence play, or do we play Tryon.

By the way, I saw Tryon on D in the first half. I tthought he would only play on special teams tonight.

So far, going just like I thought it would. 4-12 here we come!!

poopie poopie poopie

Bet Richardson comes off the practice squad next week.

Dude, I was a Marcus Mason supporter I would've loved to see him make the team. But the references to him not being here anymore or his style of play OR lack thereof, like JLC vs. Cerrato is growing old! Good f'n grief!

He's GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can tell who are JLC friends on the blog. Birds of a feather, f'n flock together.

Kill that noise already.

John Madden has started 58 sentences so far "we were talking". When he hits 60 I'm going meet Clinton Portis out back.

Oh and seriously...is it time to do a gut check on Bubba Tyer? We can't line up without someone rolling on the ground in agony.

It appeared to me that Thomas saw that the DB was beyond the 1st down marker and he signaled to JC to throw him a quick hitch. He just wasn't able to beat the DB to the line to gain.

Where's TE? Now's the time to see if his prediction comes true.

Posted by: scampbell1975 | September 4, 2008 9:11 PM

Hang on, you'll see. Although he would have had a better chance at two picks if he'd started.

Well Smoot should have some more free time on his hands now for party boats on the Potomac.

Is there anyone else in your secondary who wants to get run over?

Posted by: BIG BLUE | September 4, 2008 9:10 PM

yeah, your mother.

This is starting to look like one of those 12 minute scoring drives......we really need to hold them here.

Jason Taylor:
no plays
no knee brace
no sense

Give us Demetric Evans please

Difference betweem Manning & Cambell....Jason is looking for his recievers, Eli knows where his will be.

Do you suppose the offense/offensive play calling is an hommage to Gibbs 2.0?

Wish I would have known Gibbs was speaking at the convention tonight. I would have liked to have seen it. Hopefully it will be online somewhere

Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!, Giaaannnnnttttssss!!!!!,

a BJ would be better than a WR or CB

Posted by: talent evaluator | September 4, 2008 9:14 PM

I'll settle for a pick 6

Between 3rd and 4th
Brooks gains second year status
Year of punts achieved

The Blueballs fans need to get laid

Maybe we should convert some of these rookie wideouts to DBs.

I'll take that too

a BJ would be better than a WR or CB

Posted by: Anonymous | September 4, 2008 9:16 PM

She's laughing at that. That may be a no :(

See? Eli's afraid to throw at Tryon -- got sacked!

Don't ya just love my forearms?

Giants are just monster size.. and beat'n the cap out of us.. their offense will just pound us into oblivion from here on out and their defense will stop us dead... time to watch the hurricanes...

I'm suspecting a heard of front running d0uchebag fans to come up here tomorrow with that "I told you so" nonsense... if they lose.

Even if someone predicted the 'Skins to win 8+ games was just being optimistic. Everyone knows they're more likely to win between 4 and 7.

Oh and I hear Gints fans BOOOOOOOOOOING already... talk about front running d-bags.

See? Eli's afraid to throw at Tryon -- got sacked!

Look for it on You Tube or maybe the GOPConvention.com later

Maybe Cerrato should hire Ed Hochuli as the team's strength coach and get rid of Hans and Franz because they ain't getting it done.

Kneed in the Back.....maybe if you would wrap up and TACKLE that kind of stuff wouldn't happen to you

beep beep

Marcus Washington is next. He does know his defense is being humiliated, right?

Al Michaels: the good thing about playing on a Thursday is that Fred Smoot has all weekend to party on the Potomac.

I was referring to a Back Judge (BJ) that would call all of these holding penalties...well no I wasn't. Just trying to clean it up. SJK.

It looks like it is going to a long year. Campbell is totally lost and the run defense if pathetic. Luckily we are some how still in the game.

Excellent! We are still in this! COME ON O-FENCE!!!!!!!

ARE with a typical 20 yard run back -- all sideways.

Too much speed in this league to run sideways on a punt return. First 2 steps need to be straight ahead, then look to cut left or right.

This team does not have the talent or depth to compete and win. SIMPLE AS THAT.

Madden just echoed my thoughts from earlier...

LaRon Landry will be a f'n beast in this league.

Now that Madden said it everyone else (nationally and non-skins fans) will believe it now.

I'll call it. Fleaflicker to ARE who sends it downfield to Cooley, who plows into the end zone.

yea it is like gibbs II, running the ball in the fourth quarter down to scores. Lets not try to win lets just try to beat the spread.

I say we're in 4th down territory.

In fact, we've been in it since the first quarter.

Stop punting when we need one yard.

What's with Cooley...away from his stupid blog for too long?

when is the last time we made a play that made us look like pros?

Giants are crowding line of scrimmage.
they have absolutely NO RESPECT for JC.
They Feel JC CANNOT beat them
So they crowd the line and make sure CP can't.

the "o" looks flat- campbell does not seem to see the field. He looks lost. The line isn't helping either.

The skin's "d" is pretty flat too- predictable and easily bottled up on the line- full of holes in the sec.

Our new coach needs about six more weeks to get ready for the season.

run it to portis three str8 times again. get it to the fifty and on fourth and one punt it for the eighth time this game. oh ya and use that rookie punt who keeps netting 25 yards a kick. fiasco.

Is this the Petitbone-Turner-Spurrier circus rebaked? Campbell looks clueless and Zorn's play calling is about as imaginative as the new All-Play feature in Madden '09......forget the popcorn, you better get your Tums ready.......we are in store for some long afternoons this fall ;-(

Hail victory

i cant believe they ran it to portis again

total retard coach is a genius

we must keep runnning the clock out. the giants will never expect it.

i always run the ball when madden says not too.

This offense looks familiar....

Can 17 heave it like the 8 car in Dallas circa 2005?

I guess the 72 Dolphins are safe from us

Dear Jim Zorn:

Your cluelessness, play calling, clock management, and confused look on your face have sickened me. I don't care if it was your first game. As of right now, you stink. Next week, I may like you, but right now - you stink. You have embarrassed us all. I am ill.

www.firejimzorn.com

does the fact that we got outplayed but not blown out of the game give any encouragement?

At least they didn't leave much on film
