Skins vs. Eagles Gameday Thread

6 million dollar waterboy : Josh Morgan

Sad really that some players just don't recover from injuries and never return to form. I'm excited for Nick Williams. I called for him to play here, and wanted us to go after him in the later rounds. When I saw he was on the tryout list. I knew he would impress and make it. I wouldn't be surprised today if he had a big punt return. He's got some of the quickest feet on the team and I would put money on that. He's not the next Wes Welker, but he's going to surprise people.

Hey guys.. What team leads the NFC in 3rd down conversions?

Probably us

We rank highly in all those categories, but we are 3-6?

Bout to go on that 6 game win streak!

My wife told me that this morning and I laughed.

I heard Nick Williams was put on the starting squad.

Josh Morgan is inactive.

Also inactive for the Redskins are quarterback Rex Grossman, tight end Fred Davis, safety Jose Gumbs, guard Josh LeRibeus, defensive tackle Chris Neild and linebacker Brandon Jenkins.

Is Brandon Jenkins healthy?

Is Brandon Jenkins healthy?

Most likely, but I don't think he's better than Rob Jackson. I'm sure if we decide to let Orackpo go next season. His play time will increase. He's shown flash, and natural raw pass rushing talent. If he wants to play the Mike backer position, he'll need to learn to cover better and right now, I think Rob Jackson is light years ahead of him in that department.

They love us, they really love us.

That should be on our banner lol.

I am impressed with how Shanahan stuck with his words when he said people will compete for the position. People judging this teams hard work and character are wrong.
