I guess you're referencing me Matty, but you've misquoted me. I asked why Lavar wasn't on the sideline with the team and you said I should check my facts, that Lavar was the last guy to question, that I was wrong for ever questioning Lavar's loyalty. But I never questioned his loyalty to the team, I suggested that Lavar's energy was vital to the team. But Sunday night Lavar is on the sideline, so was I totally off base? Heck no, we question everything in here and will continue to do so. But I've never questioned LA's leadership, he's the unquestioned leader of this team, if anything I questioned his leadership style. But then again, he was on the sidelines Sunday night so that kind of proves my point.
Injuries happen and I'm not going to comment on the severity of LA's injury because I know nothing about medicine. And I do know that not playing is killing LA. I put up my post on LA to say that I think he's too important to our team to be hanging out in the owner's box during a MNF game. And the only shot I saw of him that night was hanging out in the owner's box. If he was on crutches and under doctor's orders to stay off of it, ok. But no one knows that for sure, unless LA is a member.
The expectations surrounding this team were unreal. I didn't even read any of the predictions that were posted, but I don't think anyone projected us to be 1-4 right now. The calls for Ramsey were predictable, but that's a panic move that Spurrier would make, not Gibbs. He named Brunell the starter for a reason, so all the guys calling for Ramsey are in essence saying that Gibbs doesn't know what he's doing. After 5 games! These are probably the same guys who wanted to fire Schottenheimer after the first week of training camp. But that's how we got into this mess, trying for the quick fix and scapegoating guys. We'll fix this because Gibbs won't rest until he fixes this, and even though the players may have changed, football is football.
Oh, and Samuels has been disappointing so far because he has not lived up to his potential yet. Biggest indicator so far, where do we run on 3rd and short?I believe there were a few people questioning LaVar. Point is if he could have been on the sidelines I believe he would have, it's just hard to believe he would be up in the box joking around while his team was battling on the field unless he had a good reason to not be on the field.
Funny I've noticed us running to the left side behind Dock and Samuels quite a bit, maybe I'm missing something.
As for where do we run on 3rd and short, is backwards the answer? ;)
