There were bad drops, miscommunications with Grossman, & they struggled to get open at times. The fact that Joey Galloway appeared to be starting for them should tell you all you know. If there was one obvious weakness on the Skins offense it's the receivers. The much maligned Redskins offensive line actually gave him good protection for the most part against a very tough Jets defense, but they got almost no push in the running game from what I saw. I will say, for his part, Rex Grossman wasn't terrible. In his absence it was tough to get a real idea of what their offense looks like. The Redkins were without Donovan McNabb, by the way this is the third time I've went to a live game that Donovan McNabb was too injured to play in. That said, the old LT would've taken the ball to the house. The only exciting play of the entire game was a 50 yard run he broke when the Jets were pinned against their own goal line. LaDainian Tomlinson still has something left. He'll make some good throws but he's going to throw a lot of picks again this year. Mark Sanchez is the same QB he was last year, I saw no real growth.

It was, as is often the case with preseason, pretty brutally boring. Apparently, I didn't miss much.įirst, I'll say a bit about the actual game. Considering it was just preseason and I was interested to see the new stadium of our old rival while also getting a chance to scout out the Redskins, I decided to miss the Eagles game and headed to the swamps of North Jersey. Not only is the site a new standard for sustainable venues, it will continue to contribute to new innovations in the sustainable construction industry.As anyone who follows me on twitter would know, last night I was offered the opportunity to catch the NY Jets hosting the Washington Redskins at the new Meadowlands stadium with BBS from Stampede Blue. The stadium will be a test site for some of the projects experimenting with wind and solar power. The new stadium project is also participating in conjunction with the NJSEA to build and maintain alternative power systems. Outdoor transformers will use biodegradable fuels and reusable fluids. The stadium lighting system is 84% efficient and minimizes wasted light to the sky. Also all lighting systems inside and outside the stadium will be on automated controllers. The mechanical units and concessions will be serviced by Energy Star compliant products that use 25-50% less energy. These design components have been recommended and looked over by the EPA whose research standards allow for accurate utility projections. The total reduction will come from several aspects of the sustainable design. In addition to reducing existing water demands by 25%, the project will also include other energy efficient features to save on other utilities.Įven though the new complex is twice as large in terms of square footage, a 30% energy use reduction is expected. It will also feature waterless urinals in male restrooms, low flow water fixtures, and high efficiency irrigation for use on native plants.

In order to save water the complex will include a turf multi-purpose field that saves 3.5 million gallons of water a year compared to a natural field. Over half of the products are certified by Green Label, Greenguard, or the Forest Stewardship Council. Many of the products used in interior finishes are made from recycled content and contain low VOCs. Working directly with the EPA gives the designers an opportunity to confirm their products are certified by EPA recommended programs. The venue also is designed to cut back on energy consumption up to 30% compared to the existing Meadowlands Stadium. The designs achieve admirable levels of sustainability using innovative materials and techniques through onsite recycling programs and buying local products. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) they were destined to create the standard for sustainability of new sporting venues in the United States. When the administrations of the NY Jets and NY Giants teamed up with the U.S. What a perfect opportunity to create the most sustainable stadium in the NFL.
NEW MEADOWLANDS STADIUM DESIGN PROFESSIONAL
The quality of the building amenities is supported by the combined capital of the two professional football teams that call the Meadowlands their home. The new Meadowlands Stadium in Rutherford, NJ has recently been completed, and is ready to host events this summer. The EPA helped the owners select the most sustainable interior materials
