Redskins and Titans talking trade again on Albert Haynesworth

Maybe so, but look at this picture, I see Daniels talking to one group, the LB/DB meeting, and AH off to the side

I swear I so want to believe that he is going to make a difference, but at this point if there is a 4-3 team that would take him for a solid (not star) receiver and a mid round (4-5) draft pick, he would be gone, and count the 21Mill as yet another lesson for DS.

Looks like some of the d-line are talking amongst each other, but it's not like AH was blowing off a meeting of the entire D as the broadcast wanted to make you believe.

^ I'm happy to leave that whole "who's in the meeting" scenario aside.

But AH single-handedly opened some holes for the Cowboys by not playing his position. He seems unwilling to buy into the new scheme. And, despite his immense talent, this makes him a liability.

He was raving mad though...I was worried he was going to pull a Sprewell on Haslett or Shanahan.

Yeah....let him ride the bench until he gets it.

True enough. Still, I didn't see him talkng to coaches on the sidelines or to his player group. Maybe he did and it just wasn't shown. I don't know the scheme so maybe he was doing what he's supporsed to, but it seemed to me that he took himself out of a lot of plays by seeking penetration.

I admit 1) I had hard time watching for him and really only saw what was highlighted. God knows the media had an agenda last night (Cowboys = Orgasm; AH = Redskins F-up); and 2) Maybe AH was doing what he was supposed to be doing.

I will rely on the tape folks (Gtripp & SS33) for a breakdown of his play.

I don't think I would trade yet. He is obviously having difficulty at NT. He doesn't get a good push. Even the announcers said he's better going straight up field instead of trying to push laterally. Although it appeared he was double teamed everytime he was out there. Maybe they can look at the film and use that against Dallas next time if AH is still here.

I think I would put Kemo at NT and move AH to DE or whatever they want to call it. Maybe he would provide a better rush especially with Orakpo next to him.

If they can't get all this worked out and AH is a beast during the next game I'd say keep him but if he's still not getting a good push and not being a part of the tackles at the line then I'd trade him.

Haynesworth is normally jacked up/sneering/pacing during the game.

I want to know why they put Vonnie Holliday in that 3rd and 2 look. It is idiotic to use him instead of Haynesworth on those plays, especially when a draw play is a free first down.

AFter listening to Randy MOss say that it's probably his last year in NE, I couldn't help but think that AH could be swapped for him. Give Moss a 2 year deal, he could help us big time.

Chris Carter downplayed Moss' comments, saying that he was only replying to questions by reporters. I know NE plays a 3-4 & that ain't AH's cup o tea, but Bellicheck loves to acquire old vets & put them into good use in his system. If MOss pisses off the NE mgmt. I could see this deal happening. Probably won't though, I think Allen & co. are determined to get value & likely won't.

^ Which is why I think we need to put AH at DE. He's not worth a crap playing him at NT and him not getting any decent push. Other teams will say he's past his prime and they won't offer much. We put him at DE and he has a huge game for us then either keep him there and keep him for the season or trade him in hopes his trade value increased due to having good game.

After watching him play last night, it seemed to me that he would anticipate the wrong gap to take almost every play allowing the dallas tailbacks to break some nice runs. Was it just me or was that the case?
