I'm still seeing the LB poll, but when I can vote it will be for Mann. He was a complete player. Manley got the headlines and was flashier, but give me Mann any day.

Should be up now.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

Judging by the thread title, it will have to be some dude named Ned

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

Negative 39 votes for Jason Taylor please and a write in vote for Kenard Lang.

Thats the postion we're putting Orakpo at. Defensive Ned

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

I vote for Flanders

And Charles Mann, one of my favorite people. Extremely underrated player. And the guy who helped get us Tony McGee to be a regular contributor on the Warpath

lol too funny

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

Love Charles Mann but I'm going with Dexter Manley. He hated Dallas and put their QB's where they belong. On their ass. Of course I wouldn't mind Mann either, great player and one of the classiest guys to ever play.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

My vote is for Charles Mann. Put up very good sack totals from LDE. Complete LDEs who can rush the passer and shut down the run are few and far between. Great team leader also. 4 Pro Bowls, 2 SBs. Manley, while putting up dynamic sack totals for a 4 year stint, only reached 1 Pro Bowl. While not suspect against the run, wasn't as consistent or solid as Mann. Brito earned 5 Pro Bowls and 3 All-Pros, but tackle and sack numbers weren't kept back then and I've never heard of him prior to this poll.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

Since a team needs two defensive ends, let me vote for Charles Mann and Gene Brito.


Charles Mann needs no introduction to the folks here. Gene Brito may need some introduction...


Here is a stat on Brito that was given to me by a pro football writer whose work has been recognized by the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton:

[INDENT]Gene Brito was never called for a 15-yard penalty in his entire career in the NFL. [Back then; all penalties were 5 yards or 15 yards or "spot of the foul".][/INDENT]
He played 6 or 7 years with the Skins in the 1950s and then played for the Rams for another year - - maybe another 2 years? He died back in the 60s at a very early age.


In his 6 or 7 years with Washington, he went to the Pro Bowl 5 times.


He also played tight end for the Redskins.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

Defensive Ned? Sounds like a good name for a comic strip. I picture some dorky or unfortunate looking fellow (perhaps the 80's guy holding the disc in 70Chip's favorite picture) all defensive about his appearance. LOL

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
 

I'll be voting for Charles Mann.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE END
 

Who is Gene Brito? Oh, he played in 51-53 and 55-58. I wasn't even born. Did they have television, because I haven't seen a highlight or mention of him before. I think it is a no-brainer, Charles Mann, maybe Dexter Manley.

Please. Kenard Lang wipes the floor with Renaldo Wynn. Remember that season where Kenard had 30 sacks.
