Shaun Alexander Looking to Tiptoe His Way Onto Redskins...Again?

After Lavar hit him he was never the same.

I don't think any trainer will be able to help him . He runs heartless.

I hope not. We have better backs on the team.

He's not getting back on the team.

not this again

At this stage in his career, SA brings absolutely nothing to the field that we don't already have in Portis and Betts. Nothing.

Seattle gave him the obligatory large contract extension after his MVP season, and he's never been the same.

I somewhat agree with you but you picked the wrong RB's. See Portis and Betts will atleast run North South and take a hit running the ball. SA is more like Rock in the fact that Rock likes to take the ball and dance in the back field, run East/West and hope to break the big one. He loses yrds more then any other back until he breaks a big one for like 40 yrds.

In most cases people can do 100 good things and everyone will remember the one bad thing. Rock could have 100 run and only two being good and everyone praises his abilities and thinks he should be our #1 or #2 back.

SA is no different. He takes the ball and dances around on his tipy toes in the back field losing yrds here and there until he finds a lane a mack truck could drive through then gets decent yrds and everyone call him a pro bowl RB.

Note to SA: The Giants let one RB go and the Eagles only have one decent one that is injured half the season. check with them, they might give you a roster spot.

Hate on him all you want, but Deion calls Alexander "The Burglar". Rich Eisen asked him why, Deion said 'because he tip toes thru the holes like he's robbing your house and doesn't want to wake you.' Funniest line I'd heard from an analyst in a long time.

That may be what Neon Deion calls him but thats not why we call him that. I hope when SA heard the fans calling him the TTB he was not thinking of what Deion called him cause he had a false idea. Someone should set him straight and tell him TTB stands for him tip toeing in the back field avoiding collision and losing yrds.

NO!!!!! GO AWAY Tip Toe Bandit

Would anybody want to swap him with Betts? I don't see this at all, and I think Alexander was more a product of Walter Jones, Steve Hutchinson, and a good Seattle line, but if he is better than Betts, or for that matter somebody else is better than Betts, I would want them in that #2 spot. I really would only want that so that the FO thinks we need another RB because I could see them sticking with the Portis/Betts combination for a while, but without Betts it would give them more reason to pick up a young guy, who's not a return guy, that can be a real #1 back that can be developed.

gosh, who is serving all the HATER-AID?
