Weel 1: WAS @ NYG (Game Notes)

1st 14:xx - Eli mouths "My bad. Fuck"... on a broken screen. Looks stupid.

2nd 11:05 - Eli throws right to Smoot. Eli looks like crap. Smoot dropped it!? WAS DL/OL also looks like crap.
2nd 11:03 - PEN:Encroachment on FG attempt. Stupid. (still 4th down)
2nd 09:28 - Portis has no seams. The trenches collapse into a ruck every single down.
2nd 06:xx - Manning Man Crush
2nd 05:25 - WAS secondary learns to tackle low on Jacobs. Gave him a 20+ yrd first though.
2nd 02:50 - Get the damn pick! (Carlos Rodgers)
2nd 01:25 - Go Rocky Go! (~50yrd KR)
2nd 01:10 - Campbell completes to Randel El. Jason is taking far too long on his drops. WR's aren't getting separation.
2nd 01:04 - Two PEN on NYG D... do they finally start to unravel? Cuz they suck, they just don't know it yet.
2nd 01:00 - ... uh no. WAS OL still folding like a cheap chair.
2nd 00:13 - Campbell to Moss Moss Moss! 20yrd TD.

3rd 12:54 - Nice catch by Moss. Uses three limbs!
3rd 10:29 - Get the damn pick! (Carlos Rodgers)
3rd 09:33 - First big hole for Portis (15-20 yrd run)
3rd 08:34 - Devon Thomas makes his debut. Good catch, but just short of the 1st.
3rd 06:43 - Jacobs is 260 lbs, but WAS secondary makes him look like he can SAB.
3rd 06:30 - Smoot INT. For the love of God, about time. What a terrible pass!
3rd 04:44 - Portis takes it to Kiwanuka.
3rd 02:14 - Smoot hurt. Ruh oh. (update: Hip Pointer from knee to back by teammate)
3rd 00:36 - 6.6 YPC for Jacobs. WAS has some work ahead of them.

4th 14:18 - Why does Andrea remind me so much of Carmela Soprano?
4th 13:48 - No team should give Eli so much time. Rush him, he'll make a bad decision.
4th 13:06 - Eli overthrows Plax. Feeling torn...want WAS to win...want Plax to score a billion points in BIFL.
4th 12:12 - Portis is going to have to do it by himself. No seam again. Going to wear him out by years end.
4th 10:53 - Kendall is about to own Pierce who is being a bitch.
4th 10:33 - What? Throwing waaaay short of the 1st down to Randel El on 3rd.
4th 07:18 - Get the damn pick! (LaRon Landry)
4th 06:29 - Chris Wilson...finally some real penetration! There was a good sack earlier but it was an all out blitz.
4th 06:03 - Pierce is a neanderthal. What a dumb ass.`
4th 04:50 - They figured out how to beat the blitz - quick slants (seasoned pros should have known that). 15-20yrds to Randel El. Took 4 quarters unfortunately.
4th 03:56 - Cooley, the best possession guy they have, gets his first catch. Makes sense. The play calling is getting better, but it's too little too late.
4th 02:23 - The mark of a team trying to commit suicide. 1st down called back for O holding.
4th 02:20 - Moss drops it. That settles that question, his head is *not* on straight after last year.
4th 02:10 - Another short pass on 3rd and long?!?! That's it, WAS is done. Last in the league. Secondary can't make the big plays when they have to, OL and DL are crap. Campbell looks really weak...taking way too much time and making terrible reads.
4th 02:02 - 4th and long...ain't going to happen. Game over. Winnable in so many ways for WAS.... but they were outplayed and perhaps more importantly out coached. Where the hell was Cooley in the game plan?
4th 01:31 - Short Punt by NYG. There is a crazy outside chance of hope.
4th 01:31 - Madden talking about getting Cooley involved...no shit.
4th 00:40 - Deep to Thrash. Thrash drops it.
4th 00:40 - Outside to Thrash. Pass thrown to far outside. Damn close to a catch though.
4th 00:13 - Ouch... too much time off the clock. Madden is talking about kicking a FG, but what is the point? You need a TD either way.
4th 00:07 - Pass defensed. Good play by CB.
4th 00:00 - Kiwanuka down. Ain't good for the otherwise amazing NYG DL that has been declining due to injuries.
