Another Set of Eyes Gives Redskins a New Look


If there is a positive to be taken away from the Redskins’ second-consecutive choke job, it’s that the offense can now be offered up as a legitimate NFL scoring unit.

20 or more points in two out of the last three weeks? Rejoice, Raljon.

Additionally, yesterday’s debacle against the Philadelphia Eagles showed flashes of capability from Fred Davis, Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly, something that Redskins fans have waited nearly two years for out of the draft picks that could’ve-should’ve been at least one good offensive lineman. The three combined for 10 catches, 139 yards and a touchdown;  a stat line that Dan Snyder likely envisioned for one of those receivers on any given day, but he’ll take it.

And finally, and this is important, the Redskins haven’t given up. If they were smart they would, but they haven’t. I’m sure it’s taking everything they have not to feign injury or incompetence when management has cost them so dearly this season, but credit the offense for rallying behind the telephone game system of playcalling and providing a glimpse of what the Redskins offense was designed to be.
