It's still on here because I am in the DC market. Good game.

Re: Robert Kelley
Kelley had a beastly 18 yard run on 1st-and-20 in OT that put the 'skins in easy FG range. They ran one more play to center the ball for a chip shot to win.... and then their kicker missed it.
Amazingly, multiple kicks were missed by both teams today in Wembley... a field that is made for a sport involving KICKING.
Bengals and Redskins traveled thousands of miles to kiss their proverbial sister. Ugh.

Re: Robert Kelley
Did Kelly ever get 20+ carries in a game for us?

Re: Robert Kelley
In defense of the coaches, who do you take carries from? Darkwa? Badie? Thompson? Hilliard? Fat Rob left a lot of good football out there and it wasn't all CJ's fault. Kelley never had a full offseason of work & often wasn't in top shape. That said, I am tickled to death for Rob. Bless him.

Re: Robert Kelley
It's a shame that the NY Giants, and Darkwa, didn't play last week. Would love to have seen THREE Tulane RBs score TDs on one NFL weekend.

Re: Robert Kelley
And adds a 66 yard run to his total!
And his 3rd TD shortly after! Monster night.

Re: Robert Kelley
And now, a 66-yd run from scrimmage, to the 4 yard line.
Which he follows with a 4-yd TD. THREE for the night.
Collingsworth and Costas are running out of superlatives to praise Rob.

Re: Robert Kelley
This really may be the best example of not only the ineptitude of the previous staff from a coaching and game planning perspective, but also the total inability to even see talent:
Last night, Rob Kelley had 137 yards rushing and 3 TDs. In his senior year at Tulane, Rob Kelley had 232 yards and 1 TD in 12 games played.
In his last 3 games, Rob Kelley has received 21, 22, and 24 carries. While at Tulane, he never once received more than 16 carries in a game.

I don't know, I still maintain he was never the best RB on a team at Tulane. Darkwa and Hilliard were both better. He could've gotten more carries here for sure but don't forget that he wasn't in great shape last year

Re: Robert Kelley
Washington at Philadelphia, first offensive serise and he picks up 8 yards on a couple of carries.

Re: Robert Kelley
He just burst through for the 22 yard TD vsvEagles.
