-I only charted one poor long snap and that was on a PAT.
-KUDOS to the right side of the O-Line that actually played far better than the left side (although Flozell was good). We actually ran the ball well on the right side for once.
-Bledsoe was getting out into the pocket much faster today and that's why he had more time. He's still a bit slow when it comes to 3 step drops for whatever reason.
-EXCELLENT job against the blitz. Not only from a blocking perspective, but from a playcalling perspective and sight adjustments from Bledsoe and the wide receivers.
-5 penalties for 48 yards. And one of them was on a crappy Pass Interference call on Henry.
-I *think* we could have the most underrated secondary in the league if we can get decent play out of the free safety spot.
-Kenyon Coleman was inactive which was strange as he's been starting and he wasn't injured. They must really like Ratliff and Canty.
-16 sacks in 5 games. That's impressive no matter how you slice it. And if we keep up that pace, chances are we make the playoffs.
-The Skins lost and their fans are blaming the refs. Stop me if you've heard that one before.
-WORST CALL EVER. The refs allow Andy Reid to review the Thompson fumble that cannot be reviewed. It's the WORST CALL EVER because they had minutes to stop and think about it AND it's probably the most common rule when it comes to instant replay.
-My main gripe against Payton's playcalling, besides not featuring Witten more, is that he gets conservative inside the red zone. On the second drive where Dallas was stopped at the Philly 1, he was a bit conservative, but other than that he was aggressive inside the red zone.
-Keep throwing the ball to Witten. He completely opens up the offense.
-I thought our WR's and offense were old and slow?
-Two things that mystify me about this team in the past few years. 1, opposing kickers NEVER MISS field goals against us. 2, our returners NEVER break the tackle of an opposing kicker or punter.
-How do you like this rookie class? So far Spears, Ware, Canty, Pettiti, Ratliff and Thompson have all made good/significant contributions. Then there's Burnett who played well today and Pepper Johnson on the bench.
-Brett Pierce is turning into a good player to have since he's a decent TE and very good on special teams.
-I believe this team is still on the brink of something really really good. When they are mentally sharp, they seem to be a real good if not great team. Plus, after the game you could see the offensive players high fiving the defensive players and the Ware and Keyshawn yukking it up. It's not common to see that type of relationship between offensive and defensive players on the same team. Hopefully, they can keep this up.
