[CarMike]

Alright people! Lets have at it!

Here's to 2-2 at the end of the day....

[JakeIron]

This is the start of our long winning streak !!!!!!

[nicefellow31]

Afternoon fellow Skin fans. Are we ready for today's game?

Yes, we're ready. Let's get this thing started.

[chrisbcbu]

[bfauble83]

If there is a game we should win by alot of points, its this one.

[hail2skins]

We will be kicking

Browns return ball to their 32 yard line

[nicefellow31]

Skins are in the White Jerseys. The Browns are wearing (what else?) Brown.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Browns at their 32

Garcia sacked by Ron Warner

[nicefellow31]

Yes! Warner with the sack.

[RedskinRyan]

sack! looking good defensively. but we always do on opening drives.

[hail2skins]

Browns 2nd 14

run for a gain of about 7

Ron Warner hurt right now

[josh90286]

damn we cant afford to lose warner too

[nicefellow31]

Warner is down. What a start for him. Sack on the 1st play. Injury on the second.

[CarMike]

DAMNIT! we dont need injuries today...

[¤Smooooot¤]

Where is upshaw now....

[nicefellow31]

According to the depth chart, a Demetric Evans will replace him. Anybody know anything about him?

[chrisbcbu]

According to the depth chart, a Demetric Evans will replace him. Anybody know anything about him?

he is decent

[hail2skins]

Browns 3rd and 7

pass incomplete, good pressure.

[suppitty]

terrible punt.

[hail2skins]

4th and 7 Punt

we get the ball at our 45

[CarMike]

Excellent field position. At 45 yard line

[nicefellow31]

The ghost of Steve Spurrier returns. A false start penalty.

[suppitty]

love those audibles.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Skins

false start. Brunell was audibling. penalty on Samuels

1st and 15

Portis for 6

[suppitty]

the radio is 4 seconds behind the tv today so i have to listen to brian balldinger.

[hail2skins]

2nd and 9 hurry up offense

pass to Coles for 5

[suppitty]

1st down, but theres a penalty.

[nicefellow31]

Cleveland's fans seem to be very active. They were making some noise.

[nicefellow31]

Another penalty.

[hail2skins]

3rd and 4

gain of 4 first down Skins

Penalty against Skins

Illegal formation

Now and 3rd and 9

pass incomplete thrown out of bounds.

[suppitty]

i hope brunell meant to do that.

[josh90286]

he did

[CarMike]

Damn penalties are killing us! We need to stop playing like that!

[suppitty]

WHO IS THE SPECIAL TEAMS COACH?

[hail2skins]

4th and 9

Punt returned to our 41 yard line. Knocked out of bounds by Tupa

[nicefellow31]

Whew. That was close. Should have burried his a$$ down field.

[nicefellow31]

Leon is on TV.

[hail2skins]

This may be reviewed because now they're in a commercial.

[suppitty]

maybe a redskin touched it, so a challenge is possible.

[rskinsfan10]

Damn penalties are killing us! We need to stop playing like that!
Ditto

[rskinsfan10]

This may be reviewed because now they're in a commercial.
If the whistle blew, the play is dead.

[hail2skins]

Do we need to continue the play by play or does everyone have the game?

[josh90286]

more ST horror..at least he stepped out

[suppitty]

they cant challenge that, but it loked like the ball bounced off somebody before northcut got it, so if it hit a redskin it was downed there.

[2Cooley]

Is it just me or is our special teams unit not that good?

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 browns

Run for a gain of 1

2nd and 9

[nicefellow31]

Yes. I don't know what they can challenge. The official would have blown it dead the moment he thought the returner went out of bounds.

[JakeIron]

Do we need to continue the play by play or does everyone have the game?

I'm using www.nfl.com for play-by-play

[suppitty]

I dont like this at all.

[hail2skins]

2nd and 9 browns

pass complete for 1st down

corner blitzed by Springs

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Browns

end around for a loss of 3

[chrisbcbu]

Do we need to continue the play by play or does everyone have the game?

im listening to your play by play, but if you dont feel like it anymore then dont worrry about it.

[nicefellow31]

Suppity. On the punt, the returning team has the option of taking the ball at the spot of first touching by K (the kicking team) or taking the results of the play. Obviously they will take the play.

[suppitty]

fumble!

[hail2skins]

2nd and 13 browns

fumble, redskins ball

[rskinsfan10]

RUN!!!!

[Redskin006]

whats happening.

[suppitty]

Suppity. On the punt, the returning team has the option of taking the ball at the spot of first touching by K (the kicking team) or taking the results of the play. Obviously they will take the play.

[nicefellow31]

[rhummer37]

Man I was busy typing. Who caused the fumble?

[rskinsfan10]

I'm loving the no huddle

[hail2skins]

2nd and 4 Skins

Portis for a gain of about 9

1st down Skins

[rhummer37]

Nice game management by Brunnel and Co.

[rskinsfan10]

CP is clicking them off pretty good right now.

[nicefellow31]

The Dawg Pound is making some noise. Seems like they are trying to interupt our hurry up offense. Knowledgeble fans.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Skins at Browns 28


Pass to Coles for 6 yards

[ShaggySkins]

For all the complaints about play calling after last week. This offense is looking VERY balanced and effective right now

[josh90286]

offense is marching

[rhummer37]

time for a stop and go to take a shot deep.
no, no it's not

[JakeIron]

our receivers are gaining confidence, good sign !!!!

[hail2skins]

2nd and 4 Skins at Browns 24

Portis run to Browns 17 for 1st down

[colkurtz]

Why are they going no huddle?

Is anyone doing play-by-play? I've only got internet radio....

[suppitty]

ill probably jinx them, but this is a good looking drive.

[ShaggySkins]

Portis is looking the best he's looked this season

[nicefellow31]

I like the way Portis always goes forward at the end of the run.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Skins at Browns 17

Portis for no gain.

[colkurtz]

Sounds like no drops by the WR - wonderful....

[rskinsfan10]

That play looked weird

[hail2skins]

2nd and 10 Skins from Browns 17

pass to Gardner for 4

[rskinsfan10]

what the hell is Gardner backing up for?

[suppitty]

draw play here.

[colkurtz]

This is there tough area - red zone. Got to score a TD here....

[hail2skins]

3rd and 5 Skins

Incomplete pass

[rskinsfan10]

Alot of contact on that play there.

[JakeIron]

We need TDs not FGs

[suppitty]

ill probably jinx them, but this is a good looking drive.
why cant i learn to shut my mouth.

[hail2skins]

Field goal good

Skins 3
Browns 0

[ShaggySkins]

I'll take the 3 point lead

[josh90286]

come on cooley

[CarMike]

Same ole crap! put together a great drive and have to settle for 3 points....

[hail2skins]

Someone stripped Cooley. He never really had control of the ball on 3rd down. Good drive but we need to work the middle of the field as well.

[nicefellow31]

Field goal. Sure would have liked to have gotten 7 on that drive.

[suppitty]

I'll take the 3 point lead
i will too, especially considering that they had the ball on our 25 yard line.

[colkurtz]

Once again - no Redskins announcers - got to listen to the Browns radio guys. Actually they are not as bad as some cities............

[hail2skins]

Same ole crap! put together a great drive and have to settle for 3 points....

A good defensive play was made on Cooley.

[chrisbcbu]

i will too, especially considering that they had the ball on our 25 yard line.

agrd

[Redskin006]

the browns announcers sound somewhat neutral. although they do get hyped up when the browns "make a play."

[colkurtz]

We've got to get 7 on these big drive when the momentum is going our way!

[nicefellow31]

Facemask?

[suppitty]

special teams again.

[hail2skins]

Skins kicking off (C'mon special teams)

Thash makes the tackle at 36. Flag on play

fask mask against us, add 15

[nicefellow31]

I don't like the ST play today.

[suppitty]

that cant be a personal foul!!!

[rskinsfan10]

That was not a 15yrder

[JakeIron]

Horrible ST plays continue...

[bfauble83]

It doesn't even look like he grabbed it, his arm was just up there.

[hail2skins]

I didn't see a real grab, sort of had the helmet. Hard to tell right now.

[rhummer37]

Go vote for Gibbs on 10 yards with TB.

http://msn.foxsports.com/story/3006120

[suppitty]

how bout an int taylor?

[hail2skins]

It doesn't even look like he grabbed it, his arm was just up there.

That's how it looked to me as well.

[hail2skins]

Lee Suggs run to our 29

[nicefellow31]

Suggs breaks thru. Stopped by Taylor.

[suppitty]

i dont like it.

[nicefellow31]

Bowen blew up Garcia.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Browns at our 29

pass incomplete

Flag - late hit on bowen

[rskinsfan10]

Utterly ridiculous

[suppitty]

by the end of today we will be the most penalized team.

[nicefellow31]

Personal foul. Launched himself at his head. Not very smart.

[hail2skins]

1st and 10 Browns at our 14

Suggs runs to our 8 gain of 6

[suppitty]

our defense is getting destroyed by there oline.

[colkurtz]

What is happening to the run defense?

[suppitty]

ron warner makes another play.

[hail2skins]

2nd and 2 Browns

run, fumble recovered by browns loss of 5

[colkurtz]

Warner tackle on Suggs.

[nicefellow31]

Suggs fumbled. Nice to see Warner back in there.

[suppitty]

making garcia look like mcnabb.

[hail2skins]

3rd down pass incomplete.

[colkurtz]

Sounds like another NO pass rush play..

[nicefellow31]

Garcia looked like Fran Tarkenton out there. Any of you old guys remember him.

[suppitty]

tie game.

[hail2skins]

Field goal good

Skins 3
Browns 3

[hail2skins]

Sounds like another NO pass rush play..

No, there has been a pass rush

[2Cooley]

this will be a close game

[josh90286]

once again the opposing offense does nothing yet gets points

[rskinsfan10]

Sounds like another NO pass rush play..

Not really. D-line had Garcia on the run.

[suppitty]

once again the opposing offense does nothing yet gets points
browns had a long run. thats all you need.

[nicefellow31]

Flag is down.

[JakeIron]

We need Big plays from our offense, you can't go 4, 4, 4 yards for long.

[hail2skins]

Sellers on the return, short kickoff

1st and 10 Skins on 34

Portis gains 5

penalty against Skins clipping 10 yards on Cooley

[suppitty]

2 penalties on one play. How are we this undisciplined?!?!

[hail2skins]

1st and 20 Skins at 24

End of quarter
Tag

[nicefellow31]

By the time this game is over the officials arms are going to be numb. We are keeping them busy.

[suppitty]

We need Big plays from our offense, you can't go 4, 4, 4 yards for long.
sure you can. the panthers did that all the way till 2 minutes into the 4th quarter of the super bowl.

[rskinsfan10]

6 penalties in 1 quarter. That's pathetic.

[JakeIron]

also penalties 50 yards vs. 0 yards. This is killing us

[rskinsfan10]

1st and 20 Skins at 24

End of quarter
Tag

I'm it.

[nicefellow31]

What. No in between quarter musical entertainment?

[rskinsfan10]

Incomplete pass on 1st down

2nd and 20

[nicefellow31]

Looks like it will be third and long. We need to run and then punt.

[rskinsfan10]

Portis tackled for a loss.

3rd and 25

[rskinsfan10]

Betts for about 5

4th down

[suppitty]

run blocking is terrible so far.

[funnyperson1]

why would you run on 3rd and 25 how conservative can you be

[suppitty]

flag on them for a change.

[colkurtz]

If we are having trouble with the Browns - what does that say about the present state of our team?

[rskinsfan10]

Penalty on the punt.

Block in the back.

1st down Cle

[nicefellow31]

We haven't shown the ability today to throw long today. Also Gibbs always remembers Super Bowl XVIII

[rhummer37]

run blocking is terrible so far.

Nah, it was pretty good until the last drive

[RedskinsJunkie]

Sorry to say this, but this is one poorly coached team.

[nicefellow31]

Coaching or execution?

[JakeIron]

If we are having trouble with the Browns - what does that say about the present state of our team?

I sure hope this does not reflect our best effort.

[KingButz]

Offense is too predictable. I know when Portis is going to run before he gets the ball. The Browns do, too.

[RichardBradley]

Does anyone want any cheese with their wine?

[rskinsfan10]

37 yd pass to Davis

[Redskin006]

what ive noticed is that we play at the level that the other team is playing. we dont play to the best of our abilities against teams that we are much better than.

[suppitty]

They are flat out beating us. This is not good at all. For really the first time this season, we are being completely outplayed.

[nicefellow31]

Matt Bowen is active today. Nice tackle.

[rskinsfan10]

Suggs for 1

2nd and 9

[RedskinsJunkie]

There is really no difference between our team right now and the Spurrier teams. Just insanely undisciplined, and frustrating as heck.

[JakeIron]

Those are the plays I'm talking about, over 20 yard passes. We need those

[colkurtz]

We haven't shown the ability today to throw long today. Also Gibbs always remembers Super Bowl XVIII

We have had only one or two long passes in 4 games. This effects the running game because the defense is not stretched out.

[rskinsfan10]

Suggs for no gain

3rd and 9

[nicefellow31]

Outplayed? They are doing nothing.

[RedskinsJunkie]

Does anyone want any cheese with their wine?



So I guess you like what you see from the Redsking this year???

[RichardBradley]

Isn't our defense number 1 in the nfl?

[suppitty]

cannot be on us!!!

[rskinsfan10]

Garcia slips on the blitz.

Flag on the play.

Intentional grounding

4th down

[nicefellow31]

Nope and a lost of down. D is doing a great job.

[Redskin006]

thank goodness.

[rskinsfan10]

Isn't our defense number 1 in the nfl?3rd

[nicefellow31]

If this was high school football I would say that was kick catching interference.

[rskinsfan10]

Illegal formation on the punt.

Replay 4th down

[rskinsfan10]

Fair catch at the 22

[Redskin006]

on this next drive we need to run, run, and run more.

[JakeIron]

Big plays, Big plays !!!!! Come on O

[ShaggySkins]

We need to put together a drive without penalties

[Redskin006]

We need to put together a drive without penalties

agreed.

[lakeskin]

This is a great service you guys provide. Love reading these posts.

Wish I could see the game, but this is good.

[rskinsfan10]

Portis for 8

2nd and 2

[SkinsKY]

One thing we have not done well this year is seize momentum. We need something to get us rolling and we seem to have too few sparks to lift us up.

[rskinsfan10]

Portis for about 3

1st down

[ShaggySkins]

Run it down there throats

[nicefellow31]

CP is always going forward. What a runner.

[JakeIron]

One thing we have not done well this year is seize momentum. We need something to get us rolling and we seem to have too few sparks to lift us up.

Exactly

[rskinsfan10]

12 yd pass to Rasby

1st down

[nicefellow31]

Ha Ha. They throw Rasby a bone.

[rskinsfan10]

Portis for a loss of 1

2 and 11

[rskinsfan10]

Portis for 2

3rd and 9

[rskinsfan10]

Catch by Coles

Brunell had all day to throw.

1st down

[nicefellow31]

Good play. I thought Samuels was going to be called for holding.

[RedskinsJunkie]

CP is always going forward. What a runner.


Too many runs where he comes up with nothing though.

[rskinsfan10]

Incomplete pass.

Good coverage

2nd and 10

[rskinsfan10]

Brunell for about 4yds to the Browns 38

3rd and 6

[rhummer37]

We've talked before about C. Portis wearing visors all the time. Usually players just pick up an Oakley's visor and throw it on. C. Portis's says Redskins on the side flaps.


....I thought it was an interesting fact.

[colkurtz]

Bringing in Betts on 3rd down?

Portis doesn't sound like he's running very well.

[nicefellow31]

Had time. O-Line is protecting well. Missed his man.

[rskinsfan10]

Pass incomplete

4th and 6

Going for it

[rhummer37]

Ohh, this will be interesting.....DAGGONE IT

[rskinsfan10]

Play clock winding down

TO called

[josh90286]

the browns D was confused and out of position but we call a timeout...

[rhummer37]

Had time. O-Line is protecting well. Missed his man.

Great defense by the Brown's DB's

[ShaggySkins]

I don't like this call at all. We need to punt and pin them deep let our defense make a play and set up our O

[josh90286]

we should punt now that we called a TO

[ShaggySkins]

Chris Cooley isn't looking too comfortable out there today

[nicefellow31]

I'm wif u Shaggy.

[chrisbcbu]

how long of a field goal would it be?

[colkurtz]

ANOTHER timeout wasted due to not getting play off on time. Just like last games buffonery.

Going for it on 4 and 7 is a good move. But shows that Gibbs doesn't have confidence in offense to get points.

[PGiddy18]

I have been listening on the radio (I signed up and gotta pay, but its well worth the money.) and am watching the helmets. Its all time delayed. How has our team looked so far? Signs of our boys from 4th quarter monday night?

[josh90286]

great play brunell! maintained his composure on the all out blitz

[ShaggySkins]

great play by Brunell!!! Good run by Coles

[rhummer37]

VERY NICE

Nice work by Coles for effort and Brunnel for getting rid of the ball.

[rskinsfan10]

Coles wide open to the Browns 7. 30yrds

1st and goal

[nicefellow31]

1st Down. I wonder why the Brown blitzed so heavily. A tendacy you think?

[Redskin006]

1st and goal coles caughtit.

[rskinsfan10]

CP to the 1 foot line

2nd and goal

[JakeIron]

a big play, that's what I'm talking about !!!! now let's get the TD, not a FG but TD

[josh90286]

browns D couldnt have shown the all out blitz any more than they did

[rskinsfan10]

TD Portis

[nicefellow31]

Touchdown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ShaggySkins]

Great power football. What we should have done last week aganist Dallas.

[hail2skins]

Gibbs has got some big ones for that 4th and 6

[thickskin]

I have been listening on the radio (I signed up and gotta pay, but its well worth the money.) and am watching the helmets. Its all time delayed. How has our team looked so far? Signs of our boys from 4th quarter monday night?

where did you sign up?
