Iffy

Exactly. Portis and Taylor should shut their holes and realize that there's a line for that number. Seniority should mean something.

Iffy probably wasnt on that list b/c they are going by who will start according to salary. Iffy will have a shot to beat out Bowen in camp and I think he will. Iffy is better in both coverage and run support.

Portis and Taylor should shut their holes and realize that there's a line for that number. Seniority should mean something.

Taylor didnt say anything about it, the guy asked him about the # and he said its no big deal he'll change.

Neither Bowen or Iffy are anything special or else we wouldn't have taken Taylor.

Yeah, well. I wasn't going on facts, skins26! However I think Portis needs to sit down. He still has a lot to prove in the NFL. There is definitly a chance he's a product of the system in Denver. I personally love the Portis acquisition, but I think before he complains needs to rush for 1600 yards in a new jersey!

Portis has proved more in the NFL than Iffy has that's for sure.

The whole number arugment has been blown out of proportion anyway. Portis wanted it, Iffy isn't giving it up, Portis joked around about boxing him for it, etc. It's not like Portis is pouting over it, and Taylor today said the number is no big deal and he'll find another one.

Seems the only people making a big deal out of it is the fans.

The only number that should matter to a player is the number of digits in his contract. Everything else should be a mute point.

The only number that should matter is the number of W's for his team

Gibbs wants blue- collar workers for his team. If Iffy proves to be one of these types, then he will play, but if he doesn't he'll probably be outta here.

The problem with the # issue is portis has put up hall of fame number's so far, and want's his carreer to identify with 1 #, which is not a horrible thing to ask, then you have Iffy, who is iffy, and may not even start, looking at portis as if the # is significant to his soon to be hall of fame carreer, as if people really identify him with that #, when he may not even start, personally if I am a player who is struggling to maybe stay in the starting lineup I don't think I want to tick people off by sticking with a # that is really insignificant to my carreer, unless Iffy feel's he has some pro bowl's in front of him, and possible hall of fame credential's, he should take the money and run. He obviously doesn't have to, but he's setting himself up for some petty sniping if he doesn't, as for taylor he has no time in the NFL with a particular #, what ever # he take's he will make synominous with his name.

I personally like Iffy more than Bowen. He has made a few big plays as a Redskins where Bowen is just another guy on the roster to me. I hope he gets some playing time in pass defense schemes and put Bowen in when we put 8 in the box to do some snot knockin'.
