Half Assed Rebuilding Mode

You know, at some point we're going to have to drop the "Cult of Colt" line. I mean, they drafted this guy for a reason, right? Is Colt a guy who the team brought in to be some sort of permanent tease?

I'm not suggesting he has to start this year, but I think some people go overboard with the thought that should Colt Brennan never, EVER see the field. If there is something in game films that make so many people absolutely certain that he should not even be in consideration to throw a pass in the NFL, then why is he on the team?

You make a good point. As for me, I am not against his playing. I'm not against Colt - I thought he was a good speculative draft pick. I am only against his getting anointed as a savior when he hasn't done anything.

When he actually contributes something I will drop the Cult of Colt line. Then we can discuss him in a rational way which doesn't always happen now.

Dude, if we lose to the Giants, I am blaming you. I'm not trying to be a prick, but you must have at least 20 posts praising the hell out of the Giants. I'm a bit superstitious and I think you're going to will this to happen.

Naw naw naw! If we lose to the Giants it will be because of whoever is playing on offense, Danny, and Z.

I don't think it will be because of Blache. You can't expect the D to play for three quarters of a game and not be as beat up as Madonna's diaphragm.

i dont know what that means....btw....im in ohio, not new orleans

yea i dont know what i was thinking!? i was just trying to think of good edge rushers and joey porter came to mind i guess

Sorry. Some of us are sensitive about Brennan. Some Skins fans demanded he start right after he was drafted and continue to demand that he start now. These people make such irrational arguments at times that they have been dubbed the Cult of Colt.

LOL. This sounds like a Blache quote. :laughing2

For the record, that wasn't directed solely at you, I've heard the Cult of Colt line for awhile from lots of people.

Here's a somewhat off topic thought -- what if we aren't able to land Sanchez and Jason Campbell wants to get the hell out? What then?

He has my permission to use it as long as he gives me credit.

Danny bends over and kisses his own ass!! I would love to see that!!

I think Colt has talent and is a guy Zorn thought he could develop. He should get more snaps this preseason and it will be interesting to see how he does now that he's healthy and has been here a year.

Maybe Just Maybe.... there whole plan is to make a really AWESOME Madden Team so when they play other organizations they feel like winners!!!!..........Damit (sigh) , or maybe it just seems that way and they really have no idea what they are doing.

-unfortunately it might be the Madden idea

Who is we haha?

Did you move to the DC area so now you quasi-follow the skins? that's a guess but my best one

fwiw i was a huge colt brennan fan in college, he is arguably the best college QB of all time and didnt get credit for it because of the talent(or lack there of) in his conference. He was a much better QB than Timmy Chang(who set the record for most interceptions as well as several positive college records) who he actually replaced as hawaii's starting QB after chang went undrafted. Many consider brennan(or any hawaii QB) to be a system QB. i find that argument hard to swallow. I think brennan was asked to do something that many players probably couldnt do. and he did it better than any other QB has ever done. His transition to the pros was expected to be slow and tedious as indicated by his draft position.

He has a low release, which coupled with his shorter frame, makes his passes more likely to be tipped. His arm strength isnt elite, but his accuracy is and IMO he was a steal that late in the draft. He and Mike Hart RB, michigan were the 2 players i was looking forward to in the draft and they slipped so far that i forgot about them

i could go on but it seems like you guys have already had this argument

he was the main reason i came to this board; i wanted to see if you guys(redskins fans) thought he was any good or capable of carrying the/a team
