Associated Press reports Washington Redskins RB Clinton Portis played into the second quarter of the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 14, against the Carolina Panthers. He rushed five times for 15 yards, pushing his preseason totals to nine carries for 26 yards.

 

I was reading the game stats on panthers.com.

The skins ran better than we did. Foster was horrible. Joey Harris was better.

We had a piss poor completion percentage, too.

I will say that our defense is still smothering, and I think that our secondary is better than it was this time last year.

 

fuck man,foster was running behind the 2nd and 3rd team o-line

 

and against the 1st team Redskin D... no blocking vs. LaVar Arrington doesn't equate to mass yards.

 

:applause:

 

I wouldn't say our completion percentage was horrible. Granted, some WCO teams have all three QBs hitting over 60%, but there's more dumps there. We didn't hit the dumps whatsoever.



Seeing Foster like that, I worry - I worry about things like him training. You figure that after 2002, he busted ass all season, all 4 months - and all offseason. Then came to camp hungry.

Then he busted out. It's easy for a young guy who's never had a healthy offseason to not work as hard. He did not look focused.

 

Foster is a fumbling mess right now. He couldn't catch, was hesitant, and dropped the ball.

Hopefully, that's as bad as it gets. It's as bad as i've seen him play.

 

Foster seems to be physically unchanged from last year. Even on MSP, he claimed that he's the same playing weight from when he was drafted. I wish he added some more strenght and worked on his decisiveness. Unfocused was a good word- his body language wasn't upbeat. And the fumbles- its becoming stupid.

 

yep. Hands, whether keeping the ball or getting the ball, is a big focus thing.

 

I still gasp everytime Foster touches the ball. Teams seem to know he has the fumbleitis and are looking to strip.

He needs to stop that shit.

As far as our lack of running game, I think it has more to do with our weak ass second string line. lord, we need an earth mover.
