RB's are worried in Washington

betts has to get traded now, no question

I hate this. Bad chemistry, bad way to star the season.. just bad!

Well this is the ugly side of the Skins, the constant revolving door. I am not crying though because it is for the better but I dont like hearing the RB's saying "Its a slap in the face" They say this game is a business and there is no other owner in the league with a better dare to do business than Snyder.

I wouldnt get rid of Betts until the preseason is over maybe even till after the Dallas game. Its hard to even know what we would want because we dont who is daring enough to take on Betts. We need to get a wiretap going out of Redskin Park.

Didn't Gibbs use to have Byner, Riggs and ???. I can't remember that other backs name, but he reminds me a lot of Betts. Portis, Duckett, and Betts would be even a better threesome than Gibbs used to win his last superbowl. I don't think Betts is gone for sure.

I still don't see why we made this trade. We all heard how happy the coaching staff was w/ Betts and you have a guy behind him that's serviceable in Rock. I guess you kinda feel bad for L. Betts, participating in the voluntary offseason programs, and potentially being pushed aside for someone new. I've always thought Duckett could be a starter somewhere though. There are only so many plays in a game, someone is going to be left out.

It also, is sad to hear everyone saying trade Betts now. I don't know about everyone else, but i've always trade to "side" with a guy that has been drafted by the skins and wants to be hear.


I'm not convinced the team is going to trade Betts unless they feel it's not going to possible to sign him to an extention. It will be easier to sign Betts than Duckett, so if we trade Betts now, this time next year we could be right back to square one. I'm really interested in seeing how all this is going to pan out.

Ricky Irvins was the third RB with that trio. But my Favorite Backs were Riggins, Washington and Wonsley. We have not had a bruising back who can run with the intensity of a T.J. Duckett in a long time.

Those were champion season backfields, as is today currently.

HAVE FAITH IN GIBBS, HAVE FAITH IN GIBBS, HAVE FAITH IN GIBBS!!

I HATE PRE-SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ricky Irvins was great. low, physical runner who always got big chunks of yards when he'd come in, always wondered why the hell he disappeared.

Something to think about. T.J. Ducketts number for the Falcons was #45. I hope there isn't a controversy between Duckett and Mike Sellers because has earned his stripes after last year and in preseason this year. I think we trade Betts, add Sellers to the trio and put the Rock back on special teams where he is most affective.

I keep Betts and trade Rock. Rock gets tackled too easy by one person. Also, Betts is a good kick-off returner. I say fear the HEAV-JUMBO with Sellers lead blocking for T.J..
