All Arrington All The Time (Mega Merge Club Mix)

How many other starters on D play special teams and are all around team players? I know I see Sean Taylor on Special Teams, does Holdman play Special Teams, I think I have seen Walt Harris out as well. It is not a slam in the face of Arrington, but like we said doing what is best for the team and he may need to jump in and play special teams and knock someones head off running full speed that is dangerous to think about LA hitting a little kick off returner wide open. Him and Gibbs having a long talk after practice shows they are both trying to talk. I would think it would be a motivational type Lavar we need you to step up and prove to this coaching staff that you deserve to be in, I know you have talent, but it is up to you to show in practice that you are the outright starter.

Alright, since everyone else has, I thought I'd add my .02. Just for giggles I dug up some stats and compared LA to a few of the more famous and hyped linebackers in the league over their first four years of play.

First 4 Years:

Now, is LA the best LB in the league? Certainly not. Is he overhyped? Who the hell knows or really cares. His stats aren't phenominal over his first four years, but they ARE good and better than average.

I think claiming that LA is of no use, should be traded and has no football "instinks" (whatever the hell that is) is a gross overstatement.

LA is an above average LB with alot to contribute to any team, and a stand-up, nice guy to boot.

Bottom line, G. Williams knows what he's doing and I trust him. The whole Brunell-Ramsey thing should have taught all of us here in Internet-Football land to maybe have a little faith in the guys getting paid millions to make these decisions.

He doesn't make a lot of tackles though based on those stats. I think that Williams will put him in a position to make the play provided he can be disciplined enough.

'instinks'

LOL

After watching the Gregg Williams interview on Redskins.com (must see tv) I have no doubt that LaVar will play more as the season progresses. GW says that turnovers come in bunches and thanks to mheisig's stats we have stats to back up the claim that Lavar is a playmaker.

LaVar will make an impact soon enough, he's just too good of a football player. The cream always rises to the top.

Words to live by, Mheisig

I think Arrington should be in the game. We arent getting that great of pressure on the qb, we arent getting turnovers. Arrington, playing under williams system, would give us an added threat.

So does scum if you sit in a bathtub too long.

i was reading larry johnson's journal from www.nflplayers.com, and he mentions that lavar is a good friend of his from penn state, and he looks forward to playing washington.

OLBs never get as many tackles as MLBs. Arrington is getting compared to all MLBs there...not a very fair comparison
