Question about 2000-2001 QB Situation here

Instability has been the theme here under Snyder. Hard to win when you're always changing QBs and coaches.

If he was here for 2 seasons, did he ever show us anything promising that gave anybody any hope?? I mean i watched some clips of him and it looked at least to me like he maybe had the biggest arm in the NFL at that time.

Jeff George had a million dollar arm and a 10 cent head. I'll never forget JG being dragged around Texas Stadium by a Cowboy and not a single Redskin coming to his rescue. It spoke volumes to me about what his team mates thought of him.

To me, Jeff George getting sacked at the end of the 2000 season by Ebenezar Ekuban and then being dragged around on the field while none of his teammates did anything was the perfect metaphor for the culture of the Redskins during that era.

Hey I went to high school with this guy (completely random and unrelated sidenote).

I dont have one but I wish I did. It was one of the funniest things I ever saw in sports.

I remember that so well. Spoke volumes about what a mega d-bag JG was. Such a shame, too, because if he had the leadership and attitude he could have been one of the greats. His arm strength and quick release were amazing.

This a big part of why Dan Snyder no longer wants to be part of the player personnel decision making.
Dan did not land any other big name QB's, but he tried. There were big rumors he tried to get Cutler. BUt chicago surprised everyone with the 2 first rounders and Orton. I am sure Danny was a close second in the bidding war.

Don't be totally sold on the first line of your post. Dan Snyder speaks is like listening to a politician running for office.....take a look at a few of his contradictions......not trying to h/j the thread :cool-smil

Dan Snyder, Joe Gibbs and being hands-off - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/post/dan-snyder-joe-gibbs-and-being-hands-off/2011/06/03/AGi1ryHH_blog.html)

I still think the Arch Deluxe was the biggest fail (behind Haynesworthless). To tell Clark you were done over paying players, and turn around and sign Archuletta to that mega contract was the icing on the cake. Clark wanted peanuts to resign with us. I agree with you that the George move was and has been a horrible move in our history.

But he could workout like no other

I remember his spectacular performance against the unstoppable RAMS on Monday night. Who were our starting WR's back then? Anyone memorable?

Fryar, Connell, Westbrook come to mind... Thrash too. Westbrook was injured for most of that year though. Centers led the team in catches.

I do remember that Rams game and a long TD he threw. Threw it on a line, just perfect.
