Shawn Springs to have surgery

gibbsisgod · 08-15-2006, 06:23 PM

I really think CB will be priority #1 come this offseason. If we dont draft a couple of them, i will be suprised.

D'BOYZ · 08-15-2006, 06:48 PM

Man that really blows guys I0ve just read the news man your guys are dropping like flies and with freaky injuries, even though the Portis hit was great

2 starter the good sign is that both might be ready at least by the second game it's better to get an injury know than during the season even thought its way better not get 1 at all

Garnell Wilds was unproven, and again, I don't know how much we could've depended on him either.

I maintain that a cornerback as the heir apparent to Shawn Springs was a bigger need than linebacker.

yeah i know they weren't the greatest, but Harris had experience and Wilds had speed, (together they made one decent DB). sure they'd get outclassed in deep coverage, but knew where to be at the crucial beginning of the play - when our blitzes are supposed to work.

no offense to the Fan Club, but relying on (an also ailing) Ade JimOH-NO and a glass defensive back not good enough for San Fran is a truly *DIRE* situation.

DBOYZ,

i was referring to your lack of punctuation sorry if i offended you it was not my intention cowboys suck thats just my opinion you have a nice day see ya week 2 go skins whoooooo yeah bye now

On SportsCenter they said Springs had an abdominal surgery, not groin. What is with that?

Beemnseven · 08-15-2006, 07:59 PM

They also said he'd be out 3-6 weeks.

GTripp0012 · 08-15-2006, 08:28 PM

Well, as I said earlier we have the depth to weather one CB injury. Wright can start and Rogers can. Springs is a huge loss though simply because he is so dominant out there.

Its not time to panic yet, but we are getting close w/Portis and Springs both out.

SmootSmack · 08-15-2006, 08:42 PM

Springs is my favorite Redskin so it sucks to see him out. But better in August/early September than November/early December.

As has already been mentioned in this thread and others injuries are part of the game, and depth is a concern no matter what team you root for. But let's not forget that we have Gibbs, Williams, and Saunders. No other team has that. We (and almost everyone else) have talked all off-season about how getting Al Saunders was our biggest acquisition "Look what he did in KC, top ranked offense with Eddie Kennison, Marc Boeritger, and Samie Parker as his top WRs." And on defense, "Look at Gregg Williams, top ranked defense with an undrafted free agent leading the charge at middle linebacker. And he's got three defensive coordinators on his staff!" And don't forget Gibbs "This guy has won 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QBs and RBs. He won with Mark Rypien at QB! He won with Timmy Smith at RB!"

Obviously having your full starting roster and having talent helps. But, and I may be wrong, I don't think either way it's really talent that's going to separate us from the rest. It's our coaching staff and what they can do those 53 men (talented or not so talented).

SmootSmack · 08-15-2006, 10:13 PM

It would hurt our safety depth, but can Prioleau play corner?

Chill, The Mighty Joe Gibbs conquers all fears in just one laugh.

Aren't your top 3 wideouts hurt or are they faking it? Terry Glenn is a bitch so she definitely knows how to fake it...

The long term health of the Parcells/T.O. relationship isn't looking too good.

illdefined · 08-16-2006, 01:31 AM

Gibbs and co. are great, but they can't get on the field and cover Terrell Owens!

I know its good to stay positive guys, but Gibbs HAS had seasons where he didn't win the Superbowl. yes, even with Gregg Williams, it's true..

SmootSmack · 08-16-2006, 01:35 AM

That's true, but I don't think there are any seasons when Gibbs threw in the towel before the season even started
