Excited, inebriated, yet unimpressed..

[rhyno]

Hail to 2-0. A win is a win. The only thing that is really holding me back from celebraion is the fact that the cowboy had some very good stats last week as well. Almost the same total yards. The comeback gut-check was great. D needs to step it up out of the gate though. seem to be a slow starter. right now I'm gonna soak in the wi and go route for the pats, and cowboys on monday. Hail to the redskins!!!

Unimpressed? Not sure how you could be after this game.... Last year's team wouldn't have come back from 17-0. Not a chance.

Its been a long time since the Redskins have shown that kind of heart

[CarMike]

Hello....remember the Saints game last year? This game is very similar except we came back and won the game.

I'm very impressed with this team. How quick we are to forget prior years. Last weeks win over the Jets and this great come from being down 17 points shows a lot of growth and I don't know how you can't be impressed.

[GhostRider68]

Last year Spurrier would have freaked out and thrown every down. Man what a difference a year makes!

[DallasSux]

i am really imperessed especially by ramsey trung iffy and bowen

[AGibbsGirl]

I'm impressed that a 19 year player runs to the sidelines and yells at everybody to start getting it done and they do...

I'm impressed that a young quarterback goes to the sidelines and tells the coach to get him some protection and he gets it...

I like that we played hurt, that we didn't give up, that we believed that we could do it, when no one else did...

Yeah, I'm just gonna sit here and be impressed this Sunday...

I was unimpressed after the Jets game, but holy smokes man, this game was impressive for the Skins. The offense finally clicked on all cylinders, and the defense was strong all day! They never gave up and out scored a very good atlanta team 33 to 14 after that 0-17 start.
Not only am I impressed, I feel we are playoff bound as long as we take any steps back.

[PennSkinsFan]

Heck, I am impressed just from the fact, in the past 8 years, if we were down 17-0, this team woudl have folded. Obviously roster turnover in that regard was a good thing.

I agree. I'm totally impressed with today's win. An away game in a loud, noisy dome and down 17-0.

[Odyn]

hey we need to get the comeback outta the system, we got a comeback win 2nd game of the season which is good cuz we know how to improve for the next game

[rskinsfan10]

I'm impressed. Wish I was inebriated too.

[rhyno]

In my former inebriation, I didn't express myself well. I was Very impressed with the heart shown and the comeback in general. I'm just not impressed with the stats. I think the team is definately growing.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

I dunno, personally I think the stats are one of the best parts of the game.... Is there a single category where they don't look good? Maybe first quarter points?

[RedskinsDave]

It's been some time since we've seen this kind of heart from the Redskins. That alone makes me happy. A win is a win otherwise.

[Spence]

Some things were very impressive. The team has two big problems, though--one on each side of the ball.

[hail2skins]

That would be lack of pressure on the QB and picking up the blitz on offense.

[Spence]

Either you're a mind-reader, Mike, or you watched the game closely.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

It's a tad easier when the commentators are talking about those two thigns the entire game. ;)

[rhyno]

I'm just saying that dalas put up good numbers on them as well and I don't think that dallas O is exactly a well-oiled machine..

LOL, that helps.

[roberro]

This is one of the few times during the season that I get to see the Skins on TV. I am very impressed with the performance today. Mostly, I am happy to see that Spurrior didn't panic and go to an all passing game. GO SKINS!.

[TexSkin]

I know where your coming from rhyno but the Skins have alot of new players and I think we have not even started peaking yet..so to be 2-0 and still getting a fel for eachother is wonderful. Especially with the brutal schedule we were handed.

Yeah Joe, starting field position. We are getting killed there. I havn't seen those stats yet but I know what that they'll be poor.

Dallas had 320 total yards and the Skins had 470. I think a 150 more yards and on the road versus playing at home is a gigantic difference.

Dont forget Special Teams. Very Shaky.

[RedskinsDave]

I still want Mike Stock gone.

[joe4redskins]

i believe alot of us skins fans are impressed with our team, it's the first time in a long time our skins are 2- 0. they are not giving up and that shows heart, i'm just happy for us skins fans and for our team. let's just take one game at a time and see what happens o.k!! hail redskins!!!!! love skins till i die.

Something definately needs to be done. Our ST's are giving up way too much yardage on returns and the blocking for Morton has been less than impressive.

[WRSK1NS]

Yeah just think what could have been... with Marty Ball we would have ben lucky to put up 230 yards and the team would have folded as has been said. Even if the skins would have lost yesterday I would have been proud, proud of the way players played hurt, proud because they fought hard after getting punched in the mouth, proud because they turned it up when they had too. It is am awesome feeling to be a Skins fan today and I can hold my head even higher than I could in the past 10 years or so. I know I have been waiting for this for a long time!

[Patrick]

IMPRESSED - Hell Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not since 1991 (some of you were in grade school - lol) have we started 2-0. .... Yeah, some of the stats were NOT to good, and we have A LOT of things to improve on BUT as far as the TEAM goes, I couldn't be more impressed as I am right now. What the HELL more could we ask of them other than to be unbeaten at this point - IMO, NOT A THING! ........... Let's go for 3-0!!!!!

The running backs need to be aware of the blitz.... And, the two blitzes where Ramsey fumbled--Atlanta "showed" the blitz prior to the snap of the ball.... So, there isn't any reason why Johnson (on the first fumble) and I can't remember which back was in the game on the 2nd Ramsey fumble, shouldn't be able to pick up that blizting backer.... I will say one thing--If, the 'Skins start picking up the blitz (as, they did in the 2nd half of yesterday's game), teams are going to eventually pay the price.

[circumstance]

that was trung on the second ramsey fumble...go to the washington post game gallery. one of the pics is of that play in question...notice the small redskin body getting plowed under the atlanta player as he grabs onto ramsey...that's trung down there, basically getting bent in half. that guy MUST work on his blocking or else ramsey's going to lose his spleen one of these days
