with this possibility and its effect on our run game and the given that "Lloyd is a bust" - we just don't have a prayer this weeekend

For what it's worth, I'm not seeing this anywhere else as of now

Well, given Rattay is their 3rd string and he's been on the team since the 9th of Oct, I don't think we'll have too much of an issue on the passing game. Edgerrin James is the only thing we really need to worry about IMO.

Pete Kendelll sat out practice yesterday, but I heard it was more precautionary than a real injury. He has bad knees and a rest now and then helps...

He'll play.

As for the offensive line, Casey Rabach, Todd Wade and Stephon Heyer (along with, obviously, Randy Thomas) were not on the field. The surprise, though, was that Pete Kendall was missing. He wasn't listed among the injuried players Monday and the Redskins said today they are resting him. But that's curious, given that they barely have enough players to man the line in practice.

I saw this on comcast last night kj said kendall is a older lineman they just wanted to rest him.

I'm sorry, but is this connected to Kendall not practicing, in some way?




anyone who is anti any Redskins' player has to be a little more careful

I read that Ratty said...

"He said he has stayed in shape in part by throwing to the high school players at the school."

Whoa! From helping coach a high school team to starting in the NFL. Thats crazy..



Also, found on the Cards site that Warner was trying to practice today and Warner could play Sunday.

Good let him play with one good arm. I'd send blitzes down his throat until he's hobbling off the field. Then bring Rattay in with fear in his eyes.

I wish to introduce our rookie to Mr. Warner.

I love saying that coz it seems that Meast has found a home back there, no more coming up to help up front, he's just sitting back and waiting to lay a big hit. It frees up the rookie to go earn his stripes.


If only we won all the games so far, we'd be sitting comfy and can afford to play practice squad linemen, but at 3-2, we need wins to stay in the hunt, we are falling behind on our division....

If Warner plays, he can expect a healthy dose of Laron Landry until he decides to sit down.

I would like that as much as you guys but be serious. We haven't seen it all year. Why would GW do that now? I don't know why, maybe because we haven't needed it, or maybe because GW wants to save it for the big games. But, I wouldn't say this is a big game nor would I say we would need it agianst the Cards line the way Carter is playing. So, either way I don't think we will be seeing it this game.

But Maybe we will see it when the play the Patsies.

If Rattay starts , you will see it,alot. You cant expect him to get tto the hot reads as quickly as Warner to avoid the sack. The chance of Rattay burning us on the blitzes are very slim, their recievers are good but rhey cant beat us unless the QB can get them the ball. If you give Rattay time , you're playing into their hands by letting him get comfortable. Id still throw some linebackers and safeties at Warner from time to time due to his possible injury and lack of mobility, Id throw the kitchen sink at Rattay.

Funny thing is , our Defense may have to keep our injured offense off the field this week, give em time to rest up between series. Maybe thats where the injuries are coming from, offense is on the field too much?

Dysfunctional OL on the side of the Skins and dysfunctional QB on the side of the Cards?

My score prediction for the game on Sunday?

Redskins 6 Cardinals 0

Well, not exactly, but the two defenses are -intact-. You get my drift.

After reading Bugels comments on redskins.com I feel much bette about this situation. We don't have the starters in the but he makes it sound like these guys can play. I mean 3 seconds is all Campbell needs.

This O-line thing makes life really difficult. I know it seems like we have a plan B for Rahbach and Wade, but technically, we are already on Plan B. We are looking for the Best of the Best, and we have the Best of What's Left.

It's going to make it considerably more difficult to throw the long ball (Jason's true strength) and even more difficult to get any kind of push on the running plays.

I'm thinking they are working all this week on quick timing-passes, and draw plays. we'll probably see the screen more than a few times, and Jason playing from the shotgun with two wideouts and TE's in to help block.

I think it was well stated earlier that our defense is gonna have to win this one with turnovers.

Who knows though. Rahbach and Wade have both indicated that they believe they can play, Samuels and Kendall and Fabini are still good to go, so we may not need to see Plan C this weekend.

I'm not really even worried about this week, especially if their 3rd stringer is starting against the best D in the NFC. I want to be as healthy as we can be vs the Pats.....that's our TRUE test.

When is Randy Thomas due back?

Hopes to be back in the lineup sometime in December.

If the Redskins don't have to put him on IR to accomodate another healthy lineman.

If he can play again this season, especially come a playoff run, there is no chance that we would IR him. We would drop a WR or another deep position first.

I wonder if thats a projected point to have him back in the line-up. Conditioning would be a serious issue with that amount of time off. Has he been at least training the rest of his body during this setback? When is he cleared to start rehabbing? has anyone heard? I've been wondering about this for a week or so and havent found any type of updates on his current condition.
