Washington Redskins fans finally got their wish and saw first-round draft pick
Dwayne Haskins Jr. take over as quarterback.Like the Redskins' season Men Dexter Lawrence Jersey , the result was disappointing.Washington is 0-4 after losing to the New York Giants 24-3. Coach Jay Gruden's job is in jeopardy and Haskins failed to provide a spark, finishing 9 of 17 for 107 yards and three interceptions, including one Jabrill Peppers returned 32 yards for a touchdown."I didn't execute the way I wanted to, but the good thing about it is that it hurts, and there (are) going to be brighter days tomorrow," said Haskins, the Ohio State product who was the No. 15 overall pick in the draft.The Redskins need that. This is their worst since going 0-5 in 2001.Searching for a spark with the Redskins trailing 14-0 midway through the second quarter, Gruden benched Case Keenum and brought on Haskins to run the show after Quinton Dunbar's second interception of the quarter gave Washington the ball at the New York 37.For a couple of minutes, the decision looked great. The Redskins got a quick first down, Haskins completed a 6-yard pass to Trey Quinn for another first down, and he later scrambled 14 yards for a first-and-goal at the 1.That's was it. A first-down incompletion, a loss of 2 yards on a run and a third-down incompletion forced Washington to settle for a 21-yard field goal by Dustin Hopkins.Haskins and the Redskins didn't score again Youth Dexter Lawrence Jersey , with three drives ending in interceptions, the last two by Janoris Jenkins."I had a whole bunch of emotions in my head," Haskins said of when offensive coordinator Kevin O'Connell told him he was going in. " just wanted to win the game and we didn't. ...On to next week."Haskins does not know who will start next week. It is uncertain whether Gruden will be the coach when Washington plays host to the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots."If I feel like he gives us the best chance to win against New England, I'll put him in," Gruden said of Haskins. "That's the way it is at every position with everybody. You're just not handed the keys because of where you're drafted, you've got to earn the right. I think he will continue to get better, and better, and better."Veteran running back Adrian Peterson felt Haskins provided a spark."Of course, he had interceptions, but that's things he can tweak," Peterson said. "When you look at those plays, those shots he took downfield Color Rush Dexter Lawrence Jersey , the first one was a good defensive play. Of course, things could have been better. The tight end could have not stumbled, and Haskins could have thrown it a little better, but it was a hell of a play by Jenkins. I think he'll take a better look at them and come back better next week for sure."Keenum, who battled a foot injury, was 6 of 11 for 37 yards with an interception when he was lifted. The pick on a deflection led to New York's first touchdown.Keenum said he was surprised being lifted and agreed he was frustrated."I think we are all frustrated in this locker room; we all have to play better," he said. "It's a tough league. Every week. Everybody is really good and you can't do what we did on third down, have penalties, turn the ball over and expect to win. It just is what it is."Washington's 176 offensive yards were the fewest allowed by the Giants since the Minnesota Vikings gained 164 yards on Dec. 13, 2010. The Redskins hurt themselves with 12 penalties for 58 yards. Chase Edmonds was an afterthought in the Arizona Cardinals' season-opening tie against the Detroit Lions, touching the ball a grand total of once on a five-yard carry.Six games later, he's become one of the team's most important players.That might not change any time soon.The 5-foot-9 New York Giants Jersey 2019 , 205-pound Edmonds had the best game of his career Sunday, running for a career-high three touchdowns and 126 yards on a rain-soaked field in a win over the New York Giants. For first-year coach Kliff Kingsbury, the performance was validation that hard work matters."He's earned every inch of it," Kingsbury said.Edmonds was largely unknown until a few weeks ago, when he started to form an interesting tandem with starter David Johnson, especially since both had a knack for catching passes out of the backfield.With Johnson dealing with an ankle injury Sunday, Edmonds emerged with a breakout performance, slicing through the Giants' defense with powerful running and breakaway speed, even in soggy conditions.It helped the Cardinals (3-3-1) win their third straight game and suddenly become a factor in a loaded NFC West that includes the San Francisco 49ers (6-0), Seattle Seahawks (5-2) and Los Angeles Rams (4-3).They'll go for four straight wins in a road game against New Orleans (6-1) on Sunday.Considering Arizona had just three wins all season in 2018, these are good times for the franchise."I think it's important to enjoy the wins that we are getting," Edmonds said after Sunday's win. "Last year was a very rough year. But now that we have this confidence back Cheap Dexter Lawrence Jersey , we got P2 (Patrick Peterson) back, our defense is really looking good."We just have to find ways to continue be better offensively."Arizona's offense is still built around quarterback Kyler Murray, the No. 1 overall pick who has emerged as a dual threat in just half a season.But Edmonds — a second-year pro who was a fourth-round draft pick in 2018 out of Fordham University — has proven a capable wingman. Murray's passing game was largely grounded in the wet conditions vs. the Giants and he finished with just 104 yards through the air.Edmonds said he expects Murray's passing numbers will return to normal in good playing conditions, but the running game will continue to be a vital part of the offensive mix."It helps us get back on schedule," Edmonds said. "It helps us stay manageable on third downs and it keeps Kyler comfortable."Edmonds' role as the feature back might extend into the foreseeable future. Johnson didn't practice Wednesday because of his ailing ankle and third-string back D.J. Foster is dealing with a hamstring injury.The Cardinals signed veterans Alfred Morris and Zach Zenner on Wednesday to add depth at running back after Edmonds played nearly every snap Sunday."He works really hard and is one of the best-conditioned players on our team," Kingsbury said. "Trains year-round, like it's the end of the world. He's a guy who can handle it, I just don't want to put him through that for 16 games."Edmonds was popular in the Cardinals' locker room even before his newfound stardom.Murray said the running back "brings good energy" and is "goofing off all the time but knows when to be serious." Defensive end Chandler Jones said Edmonds "has a lot more where that comes from" when it comes to production on the field.He's got another fan in Kingsbury."Guys recognize character and work ethic, the way he treats people and carries himself," Kingsbury said. "You see how excited everyone is for his success because they know the hours he's put in."
