...and a Scoreless Second Quarter

Given whatever Campbell is going through, I'd try to ride Portis to an ugly win.

Gee, do you think? Dude, no win is ugly.

Let's ride CP, then give the rock to Rock, and then let's give Alexander a few times!

I agree with JLC, maybe give JC a chance to throw on 2nd and 3rd from time to time but I don't expect much of him. May want to trick play them with El at QB or something.

Okay, "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" could be pretty funny.

I don't like this at all. I think the holding by the punter was off for the FG. Anyone see anything about that?

We should have kept Brooks!

fingers crossed pray to football gods.

Ian Eagle aka Dan Snyder

Still think that most of this is about play calling. Zorn should have gone for it on 4th down on the first series.

Is Campbell injured or just inept today? What's going on?

Would a 75 yard TD drive be too much to ask for?

Man we got to get something going.

D might need to get a score here since the Offense is unwilling to do that.

Can that be right, that the Skins haven't been scoreless in the first half since 1981? Nation, is it so?

Would a 75 yard TD drive be too much to ask for?

Looks like it. This offense is a work in progress and it seems to have taken a step back today.

Dallas game where Moss has 2 TD's 2005. Scoreless til 2 mins left

Can they throw the ball down the field for crying out loud!

If JC is hurting in that groin area from 1st quarter then JZ should put TC or Colt in there.

Second drive killed by a holding penalty.

Okay, they said the last scoreless first half of a Skins game was 1981. That seems reasonable.

He didn't pin them deep even though he had the wind in his face, and now he punts very short.

JC seemed to strain a groin or hammy. He's looking OK. Shaun Rogers nose tackle, is putting a lot of pressure up the middle.

Ah yes Cindy, that makes more sense.

Two Redskins having career years: Carlos Rogers and Clinton Portis. They just keep making plays.

I say just launch it deep if JC can.

Almost makes me yearn for the scorefest that was the Ravens-Fins game.

If Double Move could hold on to INTs, he would get Asante Sameuls money by next year........

How are we not winning this game? CP has more yard than Browns total yard.

Play Action... TANA MAN!!!!!

called it

y 5:53 comment was supposed to address austin's question about JC.

Nice!

Moss is a baller.

Heh. I said "baller."

Here we go, let's get the ever elusive TD!

It's not easy to gather the Moss, my friends.

CP almost @ 100 yds

in 1981 Gibbs 1.0 second game Giants and Skins played a thrilling first half that ended 0-0.

NYG won 17-7
You recall Gibbs 1.0 lost his first five games and said he wondered if he would finish the season, because he had never been a head coach before that season.

We have run more than 100 yards. When that happens we win most of the games. The key on this drive is to at least get three points.

TD portis!

JC seems to be setting up and pushing off well. Injury doesn't seem to be bothering him.

That's what I am talking about.

Finally!

It's about time! WOO HOO CP!

CP: 19 carries, 100 yards and (most important) a TD.

Their defense isn't going to hold up in the 4th quarter. We're leading in time of possession, 20:15 to 12:53.

That's what I am talking about! CP Baby

All that man does is score TD's.

I hate to say this, but I think we caught a break on that last TD. I saw the replay twice and didn't see Portis cross the goal line.

CARLOOOOOOOOS! WOOOOO!

We need a long drive that gets at least a FG. But we need a TD.
