Official THN Gameday Thread: Redskins vs Jaguars

Even Archuleta started to show signs that he's getting a frim grasp on the defense. If this defense can stick together until Springs and Salavea come back at 100%, they're going to be every bit as good as they were the last two years, if not better.

The greatest game I have ever seen!!!

Was it the best game ever played at that stadium?

As someone who has been to almost every Redskins game played there, I will say yes it was.

He overcame a lot to put up this performance today and it's a testament to how strong a person he is. First class effort from Mark Brunell and I hope some of you at least retract the finiteness of some of your statements about him. You can take no more from two good performances in a row than two bad, but you definitely can't say the guy's totally washed up. He commanded an offense that put up 976 yards in the last two games. Outstanding.

You know what's scary???

Th team is just starting to "get it" after four games, and in the past two games are averaging 33.5 points per game.

The Redskins....33.5!!!!! :shock:

I don't know, bro. The thumping of Dallas last year was out of this world!!!! This one was certainly more exciting, but completing the sweep of the 'Pies was primo. My 2 cents

Sean Taylor had a monster performance yesterday. I saw him lay some vicious hits on several Jags. Yesterday was one of his best games overall. He was always where he needed to be, tackled exceptionally, and made some key hits. The guy's a beast!!!

Just now chiming in from having to watch the game on tape.

Crow, table for one ... I'll take mine with a mango salsa, thank you.

Even though I still wish they had started 'working on it' in preseason, it's clear they have things where (or darn wel close to where) they need to be.

My game ball goes to the D-line. Big-time step-up.

The game against Dallas last year and the wildcard game against Detroit a few years back were the most enjoyable I'll admit that.

But in terms of just a great football game between TWO teams that both showed up ready to play, yesterday's game was the best I've seen.

Classic football game.

My game ball goes to the O-Line who did a great job against an awesome Jaguars front four.

And obviously Santana Moss...I mean....what can you say?? The guy is amazing.

by **REDEEMEDSKIN** » Mon Oct 02, 2006 9:58 am

JPM36 - Agreed....on all counts.

by **TincoSkin** » Mon Oct 02, 2006 11:22 am

JPM36. Yes. O line game ball with out a doubt. All the hype was the jags D line and stopping portis, "He wont see daylight" but oh how our O line prooved them wrong.

What can I say? Not much more than Joe Gibbs did yesterday:

Jpe Gibbs on Santana Moss (WR, #89):
"The guy couldn't be a better playmaker and I don't know who is in the NFL. Every time he gets the ball in his hands, it's a threat to have him go with it."

Leave it to Coach to put it perfectly.

There's nothing else to be said about Moss. He is the man.

Just finished watching video highlights of the game. Wow - some great plays from both teams. Moss is astounding.

What the highlights can't show you though, is the job done by the o-line and by the defence. OK, the D is still getting hit by big plays, but I think they turned it up a notch or two yesterday, against a heck of a good football team.

And let's hear it for Mark Brunell. Last week was dink and dunk. This week, there was a hell of a lot more dunk than dink!

The defense had one of their best games last night. The Jags have a good offense, and Leftwich's play was inspired. As a result, leftwich and Reggie Williams made plays. The defense went hard and Leftwich just avoided the pressure and made amazing throws.
