Washington redskins news

Heart breaking News : The Washington redskins key player and his families involved in auto crash minutes ago.

 

“We’ve got to play better all across the board – some of the blocking, some of the protection, being comfortable. All those things come into play.”

Morris said frustration from wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts won’t be charted as negatives, but competitors “wanting to make a difference.” Cousins debuted for the Falcons and was intercepted twice and sacked twice.

Pitts scored the Falcons’ only touchdown — a 12-yard reception — and had three catches for 26 yards. London caught two passes for 15 yards. “All these things are the same.

They’re all learning episodes. They’re all learning opportunities,” Morris said.

“Whether you win, whether you lose, they’re all the same for us coaches, right? You’ve got to learn from wins, you’ve got to learn from losses, and we will certainly learn from this loss.”

Atlanta led 10-9 at halftime but didn’t score in the final 30 minutes.

Morris wasn’t ready to offer a grade on any individual performance postgame. He said Cousins not being comfortable in the pocket isn’t entirely a Falcons’ issue.

“You know, it’s the Pittsburgh Steelers. They’re a good defense. You got T.J.

Watt out there, you’ve got [Alex] Highsmith out there. You’ve got a bunch of good cover guys.

You’ve got a bunch of good guys across the board. Maybe he didn’t get comfortable.

Those are things you have to evaluate when look at the tape.

We’ve got to get comfortable, and we’ve got to do it with an urgent manner.”

The Falcons play the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, an environment Cousins knows well from his days with the Minnesota Vikings and Washington.

He’ll do a self-scout on Sunday night and get ready to turn the page to Philly. ”
