The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

I'll also weigh in with a vote in favor of Samuels doing whatever it takes to ensure a long and healthy life after football. With that said, I hope he recovers quickly and plays for us again. But I'll understand if he's not able to.

...

I hate to beat a dead horse but how is it exactly that ...

Its actually pretty awesome to see a skat back turn into a power back I dont think I have ever seen that and to see that big run he had was purely legs and the the game winning run was the same power. GO CP!

Did I miss something? When was Portis ever a skat back?

When he was rushing for 1 ...

I heard Peter King on the radio with Dan Patrick this morning. I found this quote, among a bunch of others, pretty ridiculous.

"There are no slam dunks this year. Nobody is a lock."

Apparently he forgot that Darrell Green was on the ballot. Oh wait, I forgot, he was a life-long Washington ...

I say let go of Griffin and Springs.Springs might of had a good season but hes old,injury prone.And we have Rogers and Smoot right now.We can take a 1st round prospect CB in the second round .But I like Springs so I would actually keep him.

But as for Griffin let him go.He hasn't been the pass ...

If this was just about Snyder wanting to comply with the Rooney rule he could have interviewed Greg Blatche, Gregg Williams, and Al Saunders and been done with it.

He's doing what he should do. Putting out feelers, planting seeds for a year or two from now when he's looking for a coach again ...

Yes, Betts is Riggins...

And Todd Collins is Joe Theismann!

And David Patten is Art Monk!

And Khary Cambell is Monte Coleman!

From the team's site...

The Bills' offensive line is getting the early attention at One Bills Drive as Washington free agent guard Derrick Dockery is the third lineman to arrive in Buffalo today.

Sup Luva, it's been a while man...

I have a disagreement though...

If they want to deal Betts, hold onto him for another year and let his stock rise. He hasn't done enough to warrant a higher demand but people see that he's a beast. If we can pad his stats we can get a bit more.

I ...

What I think he is doing and what I hope he is doing are two different things...

I think he is sitting in his office with phones going all around him, talking back and forth with many agents and the team-execs on Redskins One.

I hope he's punching himself in the face for failing, with the ...

There's already not enough balls to go around. How quickly we forget that Brandon Lloyd was an un-tapped resource last season, and that Antwan Randle El would show up in the box-score once every few games.

This team has three legitimate receivers and at the least will enter the season with two ...

Let me preface my next statement by saying that I do not think Warrick Holdman is not a pro-bowler, or even that he is a solid starter anymore.

That said though... I think Holdman may've been the most consisten linebacker on the defense, based on talent. He had a better season than Lemar Marshall ...

Two things...

Brandon Lloyd will be back for a couple of reasons. Firstly because he's a better 2nd receiver than anybody else this team could potentially bring in and secondly because the receiver position isn't a concern right now. This team has too many wholes to fill, and creating another one ...

What happens when Ladell gets hurt? He has never not missed a game, and that is in a career in which he's never been a feature-back? I love the way he plays thought his 155-yard effort yesterday was sterling but this is the kind of stuff that makes me lose respect for Redskins fans.

A healthy ...

1. Fire Jackson as safeties coach and comepletely re-evaluate and toy with every aspect of the defense. Retain Gregg Williams, sign a safety with coverage abilities to start opposite Sean Taylor, and hope that Proleau will be healthy enough to provide help in the backfield next season

2. Give Al ...

Suisham didn't have a kick land any further than 5 yards from the endzone, and actually put two of his three kicks within three-yards of the goal line. He also had plenty of leg on that 50-yarder, but missed it a little left. Sadly enough --- he was a major improvement.

Gaines Adams (DE from Clemson) or Leon Hall (CB from Michigan)

Rogers and Springs won't be hurt forever, and both Rumph and Wright are solid third corner's. May seem crazy now, but covering someone like Harrison and a third-guy like a Tim Dwight is quite different. Bottom line --- As of next ...

No comparisons to the Yankees, none at all.
Difference? Yankees win, win, win, get to post-season, win a few, win w/o stars (sheffield, matsui), win with mediocre pitching..go to playoffs like 12 years straight, win 4-5 titles in last 10 years.
They spend $$ and at least win during the season.

We ...

I don't want to make excuses for the horiffic first-half of the season that the Redskins are having. They've looked bad. Really bad, and I think everyone on this board would agree with that.

I do however want to gage what my fellow hogs.net advocates think the problem is.

Do you think it's ...

WHY DID THE SKINS NOT RUN UP THE MIDDLE? THE GINATS ARE KNOWN FOR THERE SPEED ON THE DEFENSIVE LINE SO THE TOSS PLAYS AREN'T GOING TO WORK AS MUCH IF WE RAN THE BALL UP THE MIDDLE IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN AWAY FROM THERE SPEED JOE GIBBS UNDERSTANDS THAT BUT I DON'T THINK AL SAUNDERS DOES I HATE TO SAY ...

That could lead to 2 losses for this team. The Titans came off of a fluke 1 point game and they're confident right now. They also have nothing to lose. The Colts will be healthy for the first time all year in week 7.

The road to the playoffs gets a bit rocky for the injuns this month ...

No but this should be motivating as well...

Brandon Lloyd's comments on his minimal role this week:

"I can think of two numbers that need to be called before my number," Lloyd said. "To make this team as successful as it was last year, the playmakers on this team last year need to get the ...

The Redskins are always coming off a big BUY. It's not fair to all the teams that have to play the skins.................

Every week (especially in the off season) is a BUY week for the Redskins.

We have had BUY weeks were we got Deion Sanders, Andre Carter, Jeff George, Adam Archuleta, Brandon ...

Honestly, I think this has to do with the transition into Saunders'offense. Last year was the team's second season in JG's offense, and they "got it" With improved personnel, and the same offense, they'd probably be clickin' more about now.

However, that's not the case, and it is painful to watch ...

Without question Brunell's inability to execute even the most menial of tasks is this offense's biggest problems. There's no other options on this team though. If Brunell looks like crap against the Texans it'll be Campbell's time, not because he's ready, but by default.

Patten, Duckett, Betts ...
