Huddle gunna Huddle.  Overreact to EVERYTHING.

 

This.

Tae Hayes was great considering he's only been here a week. Did everything I'd have expected coming from App. Plays tight coverage, flows downhill hard on those quick screens and slants.

It appears we have some good CB’s this year

I can understand this mindset given our recent raving success.

Oh wait...

C'mon, it's preseason!  How many teams look like the best practice teams then get shanked in the regular season?

If we get handled once we start game planning, then I think we can start the panic.  Right now, I'm not stressing.  Certainly, we know that Jordan is not a good guard at all, but I don't make that choice.  That's on Rhule, and if we have a poop year, then he's gone, and we get to start all over again.

I just don't think the preseason is a time to get all worked up over PFF scores.  Now if it comes out that we look like wimps in the joint practices, then that's something else ENTIRELY.

Not wanting to overreact but we have got to situate the o line like yesterday. No excuse to trot out what we did. Hoping it was some weird unnecessary evaluation stint or else Rhule is further gone than imaginable and won't make it through the season. At least there are folks in the coaching staff with some HC experience. Also, big shout-out to Wilks getting these DBs up to speed and back into form.

I said that same thing before we got Mayfield and everyone wanted Corral starting. Why not let Darnold take the lumps while we let the OL gel and see how good Corbett, Iky, BC and Bozeman are? People in here get way ahead of themselves. Mayfield is a top 10 QB and our OL is top 10, etc.

I agree regarding the oline. But Darnold always should have been shown the door he has no future regardless and tanking isn't a real thing not now after recent claims of coaches being offered added financial incentives to lose.

Jeez, I see why we wanted Danny Shelton...

Don't think any decent DTs are even available anymore

Don’t like seeing that play design. The narrator is 100% right, nothing was done to move that safety out of the play. I remember watching the replay because the normal speed made it look like RA had no chance but the replay from the end zone showed him catching it before the safety “loosened” his grip on the ball. If one of the two WRs on the left goes downfield, that Safety doesn’t have a chance.

Yea there are two angles of the catch attempt that look completely different.  The better angle where you can see before the contact is made Anderson clearly had the ball in both of his hands before the safety made contact.   It would have been a very difficult catch but one the best WRs make more often than not I'd say.

Horn - Henderson - Jackson has the potential to be the best starting trio in the entire league.  Throw in Chinn and Woods on the back end, and ooooooh weeeeee mayne.  We're gonna need it too, because outside of Burns our pass rush is gonna be buns.

Keep in mind that almost every single player in Washington front seven is a top 20 draft pick.

Also Was played there starters till mid 2nd qt long after Car pulled there 1st team.

Then when the game was more on the line they wanted to bliz the rookie QB because it seem to me like they wanted to win...

Yeah watching the replay Corral really got put into a shitty situation. 4th stringers that are going to get cut, 2 minute drill vs a team blitzing like they had nothing to lose. Sam Howell was getting 4 seconds to throw the ball, Bonnafon as his RB and Alex Erickson who was basically our WR4 last year at WR.

Ron definitely did not want to lose to Rhule again, having linemen stunt and running zero blitzes. 

I love Ron and I'll always be a huge fan of his, but he had his team playing harder with 2 mins to go in the first preseason game than he did for some regular-season games here. That said, nobody is better at putting Corral in a bad situation than Rhule.

Take from it what you will. I would like to see all the grades, but I will say that it appears that the depth at DT is bad, while the same at CB looks good. Our LB corps may not be great, but its floor is probably average at worst. All in all, these grades are probably a pretty accurate reflection of the team's strengths and weaknesses at certain positions.

If you want to read the little no-account words that accompany the grades here it is:

Was corbett that bad because elflein is generally the worst?
