Mason to Ravens

Well, the fumble didn't help matters.

I'm just wondering. Why can't the nfl increase the roster to say, 58 ? Is it a money thing or what? It would have been nice to keep Mason, especially since we were the ones who gave him a chance and I believe he really wanted to be a Redskin.

It's always a money thing.

Good for him, hope we see him back with the Skins soon.

he couldn't get 3rd/4th and 1, he couldn't return well, couldn't pass protect, and wasn't anything special as far as coverage teams. It's no surprise we kept cartwright over him, and there's no use keeping a 4th RB if he's worthless on special teams.

he can be a good backup, but we've had so many of those guys through here that it's not a big loss (betts/cartwright/kenny watson - still backing up for cinncy/mason).

This kid looked good, hate to see him go.

I'm happy that he got to stay local. I still can't believe that we cut Mason and McMullen, yet held onto Tryon, who showed only a penchant for getting beaten deep.

Yes I'm a Mason Bandwagoner....so help me with what Rock does? He can't pass block either, couldn't get a 3rd/4th and 1, and is worthless at RB. He does more running around the back field then running up field. Hell he got caught more in the back field during preseason then Mason. He had one good run. About the only thing he can do is run kick offs. WOW. He's a special teamer. One position. We should have let him go also. Betts can do his job as well as back up RB.

Hell, Betts is one dementional. He is back up RB. If this team was so concerned about getting younger they would have kept Mason and got rid of Rock. I guess when your job has only been to be a kick returner for what close to 10 yrs then I guess you better be good at the one thing your supposed to do. I certainly hope nothing happens to Portis this yr cause if we have to depend on Rock as back up we will start seeing the Texas two step behind the line and the fumbles he's known for when he was given the chance to fill in.

plus, he was a cowboys fan, it would've never worked..

On a more serious note, yes the kid would have been a nice gem if we NEEDE a RB, but we don't, and like someone else said, we have had plenty of them 3rd stringer/3nd stringer RB's through here its not even a big deal. OUr RB's are reallllll good, no need to change anything.

I wish we would have kept mcmullen, now he's never going ot ply football ever again and I hate to hear that. I think he deserved a spot.
