Not questioning Gibbs as much as Williams...Gibbs is in the Redskin Family as is Lavar....
Then why don't you trust the guy that Gibbs trusts to tend to the D?

For further debate, I intend to refer to the precedent set forth in Rubber v. Glue.

Well if the skins are 5th doesnt that mean there are 4 other Def coordinaters better?
Nah now that he has given Lavar a chance maybe i dont wanna see him leave...i just was upset with his comments..people are talking like he's a rookie....IF LaVar can play...if he proves homself...rediclous he has proven and hes played hurt... You wanna talk about Loyalty how quicky you all turned on him and made him seem like a criminal...Dont forget Lavar was here for all the bad years ...speaking out loudly giving 200% when others weren't... so now he should have been able to celebrate in the good times too but instead this Williams told all these fish tales... and gave ten million excuses.. inventing more as the pressure increased...he basically smeared the man as far as i'm concerned.... So where's the loyalty to laVar???? Redskins???? its not about loyalty I love the redskins ..but Lavar has been a redskin longer than williams...he's a coach... that just got here ...Lavar is a Redskin ...he bleeds burgandy.....so check your loyalties...
wow.
First, no that doesn't necessarily mean 4 DCs are better, there's different amounts of luck/talent/money in each of those top 5 defenses, but being in the top 5 two years running means you're pretty good.
I never said anything like lavar was a criminal or a rookie who couldn't play, and i think the majority of people here thought the same. Its just that GW's opinion takes precedence over lavar's opinion for most people, and that's that.
I'd like to hear all of GW's excuses, he's the one that came out and said lavar is healthy, that's not why he's not playing. Beyond that I don't think i've heard a single excuse or explaination about why he's not playing besides the packages thing... so i'd like to see what you're calling fish tales and this multitude of excuses from a guy that only talks to the media once a week....
and watch who you're telling to check their loyalties, GW won 6 games for us last year, lavar won 0, so obviously winning and team success must not be important to you, but it is to me.
oh yeah, Gibbs picked GW personally and entrusted not just lavar, BUT THE ENTIRE DEFENSE to him as well as personnel decisions etc... GIBBS SPECIFICLY PICKED GW, he had absolutely no say in inheriting lavar.

My loyalties comment was in response to this....
you really need help, GW won games for us last year, lavar didn't. How can you be a bigger fan of lavar than the team? that seems kinda nuts.
team loyalty..read what i said i am saying lavar has been a redskin longer than williams ...i feel everybody suddenly blamed him.... acted like he was some bum saying if he does this...if he can do that...

It was just a matter of time. Or one more rushing TD by a RB who would have been anhilated by the "L". Welcome back LA, we missed you.

I've never called him a bum or blamed him, so i have no idea why you'd be questioning my loyalty over something that never happened :P
and though lavar may have been a redskin longer, GW is MUCH more important to the team. Lavar + another DC (with champ) were on the 25th best D, GW without champ OR lavar had the 5th best D, so you can kind of see why i think GW might be just slightly more useful to the skins than a bench-warmer.

OK, here is my opinion on the whole LaVar thing and correct me if I might be wrong, because I have been there before. Arrington was hurt the majority of last season, and could not participate in training camp for the most part. It takes a while to get back into playing shape. Maybe he has just now caught up to everyone else in the stamina department and is now fully healthy and in game playing form. That would explain the lack of playing time. They might have given him a few plays early on in the season to do both test him and get the early season gitters out. Then hold him back and piss him off from a Pshcholigical stand point and then unleash him with something to proove. This in turn would provoke two things. To play harder, within the scheme, and win back his starting job. And most importantly force hime to step up and be the leader that corresponds to his playmaking ability. Maybe, just maybe, I am right and our coaches know how to motivate and coach in two aspects of the game, both Physical and Psychilogical.

GW didn't actually say he'd be playing, he just implied it... here's hoping though.

I think the title of this thread should be more like "Good News Redskins Fans!"
