I was listening to Jim Rome when he was interviewing Kirk Cousins last year and I couldn't help but like the guy. Never would have thought that he would be a Redskin.

Why not run a play...???? That's what they're there for. It's a chance to run something against an NFL defense, why not just run a play from the playbook and see how it turns out. We might learn something that could be worked on, or it's just healthy practice, know what I mean...?

Right. And get someone needlessly injured.

Don't be soft. There's no point running any plays then in pre-season is there...?

I'm saying the result in unimportant, the practice is what is important, take every opportunity you can to learn. You can't fear injury in situations like that, you have to get battle-hardened and ready.

I'd be fine with him backing up RG III.

Well it's an inevitability of an eventuality.

I forget...how much does a pre-season game count in the standings?

You'd be the first person with a torch and pitchfork if RGIII had a season ending injury for some "practice". 3 seconds left in a preseason game. Lmfaooooooooo.

You can't fear injury. But you can't put players in losing situations. But maybe that 1 play will be the difference between him being a bust or a HOFer.

Everything according to these people.

Jake Russell‏@_JakeRussell

CB Brandyn Thompson took a terrible late angle trying to tackle the returnman. Gave him a lane to score. #Redskins

That could be the difference on Thompson making the team. Outside of Wlison and Hall, the CB positions are anybody's. Crawford seems to have a leg up.

Was Jim Rome the reporter who got punched by Jim Everett? Kept calling him "Chris" Evert, after the women's tennis star...Everett warned...they were doing a live interview

Cousins threw that flat footed - all arm deep ball to Robinson

Is anyone else watching this streaming on First Row Sports? Do all the links have these ads for Asian women every 30 seconds?

Red_One43 · Post by **Red_One43** » Sat Aug 18, 2012 10:20 pm

looked like it had no chance - then it looked like it had a chance - then it was hard to tell - that miss by Rackers for some reason isn't as painful as a Gano miss - when he misses you can tell when it leaves his foot
