SteelKing728 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The Washington Post highlighted a few key matchups in this game: Thielen vs Norman Griffen vs TJ Clemmings Smith vs Davis https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/football-insider/wp/2017/11/10/redskins-vikings-three-matchups-that-could-decide-sundays-game/ Only problem: 1) its likely that Josh Norman will see Stefon Diggs and Laquon Treadwell as well, since we move our WRs around a bit. Thielen can and will play X,Y and Z, and apparently Norman stays to one side. 2) we still don't know who is starting at LT for you. Regardless, Griffen has been a handful this year, leading the league with 45 pressures. 3) my guess is Smith, Barr and Kendricks will all have a piece of Davis, as well as Chris Thompson. What do you guys think? Anything I'm missing here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you guys think? Anything I'm missing here? I think that’s about right y’all Defense is exciting to watch. I also will be curious to see if Rhodes fallows Doctson. Sherman started too last week but it looked like he stumbled on the left side and didn’t follow him after that. Maybe something to do with his injury he’s been dealing with but teams playing us seem to see things on film covering Doctson differently then our other pass catchers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually will start locking him on someone if they are killing it. edit- also Ryan Kerrigan is usually a handful for anyone. So Kerrigan vs. Remmers is one to watch.

Remmers will likely be out i think. Rashod Hill will start if he can't go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Good news for you guys is that Ioannidis is apparently out for this week. So, the interior of the line will be some combination of Ziggy Hood, Terrell McClain, and Stacy McGee. In other words, Case Keenum has little to fear about the top of the pocket collapsing.

On a positive note, Anthony Lanier looked pretty decent last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, that's somewhat cold comfort when the other three are just there. The real problem will be if Zach Brown cannot go. Imagine what happens when we want to run the nickel? Who are our linebackers? Choose two out of: Anderson, Carter, Compton, Harvey-Clemons, Smith, or Spaight. Smith and ... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather Smith have his hand in the dirt in the nickel. Sooooo Anderson and Co.... can't do it. Carter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither is on the injury report at this time, so they should be available. Does that change your choices? Just now, MKnight82 said: I'd rather Smith have his hand in the dirt in the nickel. My thought there was we could conceivably go with Galette at RDE. May not be the greatest run defender, but at least could give us some pressure from the outside.

Kerrigan and Smith should be getting as many snaps as possible, rotate Anderson in if you need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Draper Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 CzAbe on gruden and Zimmer- “we didn’t get the good one, we got the paste eater” BMitch- speaking about why we aren’t using Thompson the right way and need to on the Minn outside backers- “for once can we create some plays to exploit a mis-match instead of running the same old plays” everybody is starting not only to see it but to talk about it.
