Redskins-Ravens Open Thread
By Jamie Mottram | December 9, 2012
Baltimore’s defense is hurting and its offense struggles on the road. Washington is on a three-game roll and needs this game real bad. The Redskins haven’t beaten the Ravens in 12 years. If not now, when?
Kickoff: 1:00 p.m. ET
Line: Redskins -3
Prediction: Redskins, 27-21

Brandon Banks inactive today. Probably the last we’ll see of the dynamic fumble machine.
December 9th, 2012 at 11:57 AM
This changes EVERYTHING.
December 9th, 2012 at 12:12 PM
Sweet, maybe we’ll actually get the ball at the 20
December 9th, 2012 at 12:41 PM
Tana on punts?
December 9th, 2012 at 12:47 PM
Maybe Niles. He returned a good one last week
December 9th, 2012 at 12:49 PM
Crawford returning punts today. Just happy for a chance.
December 9th, 2012 at 12:56 PM
Hey, we got Marv Albert, that’s huge! Rain should make the field conditions extra terrible.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:05 PM
G’damn I love Morris.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:11 PM
Well that was a good start
December 9th, 2012 at 1:11 PM
Finally a great opening drive.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:15 PM
I’m so excited. I’m so … SCARED.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:17 PM
fuckin defense
December 9th, 2012 at 1:18 PM
So far the Defense has brought pressure the opposite way the Ravens have run on every play.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:19 PM
ray rice’s going to fumble today….
December 9th, 2012 at 1:20 PM
Do we even have a defense?
December 9th, 2012 at 1:20 PM
no 3rd downs on that drive
December 9th, 2012 at 1:22 PM
I wish DHall was deangelo williams. NFL commentators are such dogshit
December 9th, 2012 at 1:25 PM
niles paul… 0 for 2 today…
December 9th, 2012 at 1:27 PM
Tally on bad field related fall-downs: two so far.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:29 PM
Messi – did you see the turf go flying out from Paul’s cleats? That’s why he fell down.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:29 PM
Who is ha-nata? Also wtf Ravens fans loud as shit in our house
December 9th, 2012 at 1:30 PM
both questionable penalties. that shouldn’t have been intentional grounding nor was it a late hit.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:31 PM
thats a touchdown
December 9th, 2012 at 1:31 PM
@deepvalue – watching the game online … horrible resolution. didnt see the turf.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:32 PM
I think my next jersey may be Alfred Morris.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:33 PM
It’s a shootout. Love the way Garcon tried to push the pile into the endzone and then protested with the ref for the td. That’s what teammates do.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:33 PM
boom. our offense looks unstoppable. kyle seems to know what the fuck he’s doing.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:35 PM
The Butler is on fire today
December 9th, 2012 at 1:36 PM
bob on pace for 488 yards
December 9th, 2012 at 1:36 PM
wilson gets burned then celebrates the bad throw. what a tool.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:39 PM
got a bad feeling about these refs today.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:40 PM
Crawford just did exactly what he should have. Like him already.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:40 PM
Ok Crawford gets the job.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:41 PM
Lets go Richard Crawford!
December 9th, 2012 at 1:46 PM
Marv Albert just said, “the Redskins have not been…relevant…in recent years.”
December 9th, 2012 at 1:47 PM
motion to boot A Fine Messi, master of the jinx
December 9th, 2012 at 1:52 PM
so leaping at the opponent’s knees is now a “perfect form tackle”
December 9th, 2012 at 1:52 PM
So DHall does know how to tackle.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:54 PM
2 neutral zone penalties on the defense this drive. Not what you’re looking for.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:54 PM
DHallPSGO
December 9th, 2012 at 1:55 PM
I sure hope someone is charging Williams for tickets since he’s just a spectator out there.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:55 PM
Anyone want to revise their predictions considering there is no defense on either team?
December 9th, 2012 at 1:56 PM
Just heard a fan scream, “good job deangelo” on tv. So great.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:58 PM
Penalties killed us
December 9th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
oh god damnit
December 9th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
this 2nd quarter can go fuck itself
December 9th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
Morris can’t play in the NFL if he’s going to drop the ball.
December 9th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
whats with the penalties
December 9th, 2012 at 1:59 PM
Okay Morris got the fumble out of the way early. Now he’s going to come back in beast mode.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:00 PM
Hopefully Alf’s fumble motivates him like it did last week.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:01 PM
the fumbles are beginning to be a problem with morris. Fuck
December 9th, 2012 at 2:03 PM
all we can do is hope flacco keeps throwing terrible passes. everyone is open.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:04 PM
oh boy
December 9th, 2012 at 2:05 PM
I’m sure Cedric Griffin is paying close attention
December 9th, 2012 at 2:06 PM
We miss Orakpo. Refs, if you are reading this, Keerigan is being held….thanks.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:12 PM
Don’t think we’re going to relinquish our top spot for most penalties in the league today
December 9th, 2012 at 2:13 PM
horrible spot
December 9th, 2012 at 2:14 PM
Questionable call there.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:14 PM
slippery much
December 9th, 2012 at 2:14 PM
Garcon got that first down. Fuck this quarter.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:15 PM
Fucking shit spot followed by shit play
December 9th, 2012 at 2:18 PM
Why are we talking about massages?
December 9th, 2012 at 2:23 PM
Christ that would have been beautiful.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:26 PM
Paulsen. Penalties. Problem. Pocohontas. All P words.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:27 PM
The field is disgusting.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:47 PM
Hey a stupid penalty!
December 9th, 2012 at 2:50 PM
Rob Jackson and Perry Riley have really stepped up the past couple weeks.
December 9th, 2012 at 2:53 PM
Coooooooobraaaa!
December 9th, 2012 at 2:55 PM
Winner = Kai
December 9th, 2012 at 2:58 PM
Loser = Tackling
December 9th, 2012 at 3:00 PM
Jim Haslett can get the fuck out of town. This is embarrassing.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:03 PM
Hey there is Jenkins!
December 9th, 2012 at 3:14 PM
Maybe too soon but Kai Forbath was a great pickup.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:18 PM
big 3rd down here
December 9th, 2012 at 3:25 PM
helmet to the tailbone
December 9th, 2012 at 3:26 PM
Huge defense stop. Result? Offense Playcalling goes to shit.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:26 PM
that’s just laziness by niles paul. huge missed opportunity
December 9th, 2012 at 3:33 PM
They should just go for it normally, not swinging-gate zorn-style. That was a gift timeout waste from Bmore.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:38 PM
I am the Lorax. I hit at the knees.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:38 PM
I’m confused by Offense being suddenly as bad as the Defense is suddenly good.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:39 PM
Add LorAx to beast mode the past couple weeks.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:42 PM
if mark sanchez played safety he would play like reed doughty
December 9th, 2012 at 3:45 PM
DHall is horrible at football.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:45 PM
I could tackle better than DHall. What a diva bitch.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:47 PM
niles paul is certainly a loser today, but that was recovered OB. Our ball
December 9th, 2012 at 3:48 PM
oh hey we have chris cooley!
December 9th, 2012 at 3:48 PM
At least BB fumbles OUT of bounds…
December 9th, 2012 at 3:50 PM
Let me repeat myself. Our TE’s are terrible. Also why is he even back returning kicks?
December 9th, 2012 at 3:51 PM
Derptastic
December 9th, 2012 at 3:53 PM
we are really taking our time here. i guess we’re pretty confident in our 2 point play?
December 9th, 2012 at 3:54 PM
What drew said
December 9th, 2012 at 3:56 PM
Griffin needs to pull the damn trigger and throw the ball. You can’t screw around on play action. That’s why he’s getting sacked.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:57 PM
Fuck and now he’s hurt.
December 9th, 2012 at 3:58 PM
thats the season folks
December 9th, 2012 at 3:58 PM
Sweet I can hear a bunch of knuckledragging ravens fans cheering as rg3 is on the ground
December 9th, 2012 at 4:02 PM
No matter what happens RG3 is a beast.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:02 PM
his leg is fucked. our season is fucked. god damnit
December 9th, 2012 at 4:04 PM
Sweet baby Jesus
December 9th, 2012 at 4:05 PM
all moot. our qb is gone.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:06 PM
What was that drew?
December 9th, 2012 at 4:07 PM
Cousins stepping up like a boss. RG3 is a warrior.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:09 PM
unless kirk cousins is acually todd collins, we are fucked is what i said.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:17 PM
this game was written by an overdramatic hollywood hack
December 9th, 2012 at 4:18 PM
Holy shit an actual punt return!
December 9th, 2012 at 4:19 PM
You know rg3 has got to be in pain, but on the sidelines encouraging his team and acting like a leader. Class act.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:19 PM
RGIII is crying on the sideline. We’ll see him in ‘13. Christmas is ruined. Fuck everything.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:23 PM
Win baby win!
December 9th, 2012 at 4:24 PM
Kirk Cousins > Todd Collins!
December 9th, 2012 at 4:27 PM
Should have cut Banks a month ago
December 9th, 2012 at 4:28 PM
drewtabaga, master of the jinx… i wonder what all the ‘experts’ will say tomorrow after ripping the skins for “wasting” their 4th round pick on Cousins. what a game.
December 9th, 2012 at 4:34 PM
Beer drunk.
HTTR!
