Bulger, Stafford, Johnson, Delhomme, and Cassel. Did I miss anyone?

Actually, you could add Orton to that list of craptacular QBs, but he threw for so many yards that we're actually not first, second, or third against the pass anymore. Actually, it turns out that we don't even bother to cover receivers going down the field anymore.

Let him sign with the Cowboys. Then next year, Santana Moss can put a double move on his ass.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

Rogers is a mystery to me this year. I understand that he doesn't want to be here, fine. But this is a contract year and he is killing himself if he is looking for a big deal. He should be having his BEST year not one of his worst. Plus my understanding is under an uncapped year (which seems likely), we can retain him for an additional year for relatively cheap. I have told people that I think he is tanking it but he is killing his value. He may think that he is a good player stuck in a bad franchise but I think that an outsider might say that our defense has been good in spite of his poor play.

If I were the Redskins going into the offseason, I would restrict him and trade him for the highest draft pick just to show him who is really calling the shots. Now typically we don't do this but I certainly wouldn't reward him with a long term deal or reward his poor play and bad behavior by cutting him outright.

For a corner who cannot catch the ball, I think he is overplaying his hand.

"I ain't even going to think about no future here."

You're not that good fool....don't let the door hit you on your way out. If you can take Hall with you that would be awesome.

I dissagree with you about Hall for all the mistakes Hall has made he is still tied for 4rth in the league in interceptions. He does what we paid him to do which is make plays when we need him too. He doesn't make great tackles, but neither did Deion in his prime.

I don't disagree with your conclusion, but if one takes what he said literally, considering that it has a double negative, the actual words mean he does expect a future here. (Now, I am sure that isn't at all what he meant, and, let's face it, he's not splitting atoms in his spare time. But it is what he said.)

A brick wall, is an upgrade over Smoot.
He quit last year vs. Cincy and against Philly when he gave his reps to Smoot.. Redskins Insider - Rogers, Possibly on the Way Out

Seriously, what NFL player that is serious about his game GIVES REPS to another player? If that's not a quitter, I don't know what is.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

I have one problem with Carlos.

If you were to ask him right now if he has a problem catching the damn ball he seems like he would say "No".

He has the worst hands for a skill player I have ever seen in all my years of watching football.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

Let him and his "I would've been a Pro Bowler if..." attitude go somewhere else. He can cover unless he get's hit with a double move. If he could catch then he would've gotten a deal before Hall got here but he can't that's why him and the other bum from Auburn will be gone. They have a bunch of if's and hopefully next years going for them.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

Rogers is a weak link with cinder blocks for hands, I don't think he could catch a cold. He is a liability that is useless and clueless. Yes, he certainly has that Auburn size brain.

They have found a nice place to park his ass until seasons end. Oh, just on the bench not paying attention.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

I don't know how you leave a guy with pretty average open field cover skills on an island against one of the top 5 WR's in the league and then act surprised when he gets smoked. But if this performance and his subsequent whiny tirade put the nail in the coffin of his Redskins tenure I think that's a good thing. Someone is going offer him Nate Clements money, or at least Dangelo Hall money, and I'm glad it won't be us.

Re: RI: Rogers doesn't know how long benching will last..

gtripp, let me ask you something. i value your posts. very informative, and insightful. but whats up with the personal vendetta against Hall? here's my take on him. not very good in man coverage. but... he MAKES PLAYS. that's the name of the game in the NFL. you put enough play makers on both sides of the ball, and ill give you a super bowl contender. sometimes your hatred towards him clouds your credibility
