What happed To Kedric Golston

I guess Montgomery has moved ahead of him on the depth chart.

That happened before the season started though

How could I forget my favorite Redskin Arrington.

God not him again......

I was surprised, but Golston has to become more consistent. Last year he was good, but not great. He was a rookie and he overachieved and probably starting feeling a little too good about himself. On the other hand Montgomery has freaked out and surprised everyone. How lucky are we right now. That big boy is playing his role so darn good.

From Washington Post Article:

'Defensive tackle Kedric Golston, was inactive. He is primarily a run stopper, and the Redskins, who had only seven active defensive linemen, apparently wanted as many speed rushers as possible against the Lions.'

with a 53 man roster, do we have space for someone thats a specialist?

It def. worked

I think we need Lorenzo Alexander, Chris Wilson and Golston active every game day

I agree. Cut the punter. :Smoker:

Golston sees significant minutes at DT normally. As has been stated, his strngths are in run-stopping - which is usually about 60% of the plays we face. Since Detroit is amazingly pass-happy, he sat, and we gave valuable experience to Chris Wilson and Lorenzo Alexander.

Chris Wilson looked good. He gets upfield quickly but seems to lack that closing move to get out of the lineman's grip & to the qb. I can definitely see him improving as a pass rusher as the season goes on.

Washington looked good rushing the qb as well. We're not going to be able to do that against a lot of teams, but we are starting to get some consistent pressure from the d-line. Carter had a monster game.
