We've got big trouble on the OL.

You kinda jumped off on a tangent and to be honest your initial approach seemed on the loud/dramatic side.
But, lets keep it football.

It's really not fair to assess his play when you know the man is playing injured. Now, if you want to argue whether he should be playing or not, that is a different argument all together and a valid one at that.

Once your on the field there are no excuses.

You can't depend on draft picks panning out or becoming better talent than what you currently have. That too is a gamble as well. We can play the "what if" game all day long.

Of course its a gamble its a gamble that every team takes every season at various positions.
The question is whether its more of less of gamble then gambling on Jammal Brown's hip.

I respect your opinion, but we'll agree to disagree on the matter.

And I you, I'm secretly hope/suspect that Compton is a sleeping giant.

I'll remind you again, it's only 1 week into training camp. Long ways to go.

Of course, but when did Noah build the ark?
If the OL holds up the new look offense with Griffin could be dynamic.

Brown would be more reliable and on the field more.


Otah has missed something like 31 of the last 35 games.

That's a trick question because Noah never existed.


I will say that CB/OL/ILB should be a huge priority going into next off-season. I do worry about our quality at depth(and some starting) at each of these spots.

Touche, but even mythos has a message.

I wish I could make it out to camp one of these days.
These is so much going on the beat guys don't even look at.

Yeah it would be nice to get a pipeline of developmental players at CB.
But more then CB, Safety is what gives me pause.
They could be really good or woefully average depending on whether a few players bounce back. (My longshot camp crush is Jordan Bernstein, love the kids skillset, but wonder if he's actually worth developing or just a guy with great measurables)

I hear you at ILB, I like Riley a lot and have high hopes for Keenan but after that its bupkis. (no slight to Lorenzo, he's one of my favorite players on the team)
And there is gonna be a huge hole on the team when Fletcher calls it a career.
I hope another leader emerges on defense before then, because even if an adequate player is found at ILB there will be a huge leadership void when #59 is gone. (i feel sad now)

Uh, your comment nothing to do with the Redskins, and how do you know a historical person never existed? According to the one of the oldest documented books in the world, this man existed, this historical book has identified thousands of historical events and individuals and locations quite accurately, verified by multiple external sources....just because the story around him is a challenge to believe does not mean that he never existed. Also, why would all major Monotheistic religions put all their cards on the table supporting the existence of Noah, if there was any question of his existence, the newer religions, Christianity and Islam would correct the original.
They did not, in fact they referred back to Noah several times.

The only real question is, how big was the flood, not did it happen and certainly not that Noah was just made up. Also, for Christians, they HAVE to believe Noah existed, why? Jesus himself spoke about Noah, and if he is sinless, that would make him a liar and a sinner if Noah didn't exist, which would render Christianity void. So regardless of your acceptance of the historical Noah..we need some help on the Oline.

So, if there was a RT available named Noah with starting potential....I would recommend signing him, pronto.

On another note, I think the value of a blocking TE/FB has just gone through the roof...where is Mike Sellers? I am thinking 2 WR sets by wk 3 if things get out of hand...I am thinking of Gibbs 2.0 with max protection for Brunell again...I just don't know if Shanny will adapt like that. It will be interesting to see if he keeps some Beefy blocking non linemen. This plays to Cooley's advantage, at least he attempts to block, Paulson may have a shot after all. We will see during preseason games if Shanny keeps in a FB or blocking TE to help out on the right side. I say he better!

I'd rather 2 WR go out and RG3 scramble for well blocked yards than send everyone out and panic and get crushed.

It may all be ok, but if not....I'd make sure we have a 2nd line of blocking on most snaps

Somebody please me the next time I make a joke.

It's good advice to never mix politics and religion with good football conversation. Someone is always going to respond passionately.

I love to talk about religion as much as anyone. But I vote that we exclude any talk about religion from the football threads until at least February 2013.

Haven't posted on here in a while, but I certainly second that motion.

[T.O.Killa]

I was at practice today and Willie Smith was out there, playing third string RT. RG3 looked pretty bad today. I was happy to read he had a bad practice, because I was wondering if this was what he really looked like, other days.

I pray that we can keep religion out of these threads. As God is my witness, I will do my part.

Joe Gibbs is very upset with all of you. Of course Jesus needs to discussed as part of football.

I agree with skinsnut that Redskins fans should believe that we need some help on the Oline whether or not they accept the historical Noah.

if we had two silverbacks as bookend tackles, we'd be set. There is your noah tie in.
