Fletcher to Start against Steelers

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

Fletcher Will Start for Redskins on Sunday Against Steelers

Good news hopefully he is 100%

I haven't read enough about his injury, but I have to worry a little bit about the whole "balance problem" issue. We were just fined for improperly reporting RGIII's concussion, so I hope they didn't do anything goofy with reporting London's status that could potentially end up costing us even more.

[The Goat]

The doctors put London through something like six hours of testing for concussion like symptoms, and they found none. Smootsmack also mentioned vertigo as the issue, which I know drugs can treat but my buddy who had vertigo didn't get any relief from them. Thing is, London at 75% is probably better than Lorenzo or Robinson at 100%, or something like that

I am a little worried Fletcher will be a liability against Heath Miller. I know he is the best option if he is healthy but if he's not really 100% I hope that they use him wisely.

Honestly we already give up 350 yards a game passing idt it really matters much. Our best hope is it's a rainy game and their speed at WR won't be a huge factor.
Either way glad 59 is playing!!

He may start but he may not finish. I see him spending a lot of time on the sidelines. Don't want him to end up seeing birdies.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Fletcher is a beast and I know that he's enough of a team guy to not put himself before the game. If he would truly be a problem, he would know better and sit out.

Here is an idea, stop being so damn negative about everything and watch London play out there. like it or not he is our best option.

To Matty, JR, NC etc etc: this is what haterade looks like. This is unbridled pessimism.

I'm just disappointed in our coaching, on defense mostly, but doesn't that fall on Shanny some too because he forced this sillier-by-the-day 3-4 experiment and we're still doing it, w/o the personnel (especially on the d-line) to make it work? I would actually like to give Haslett the benefit of the doubt and say he just doesn't get the 3-4 and that's why his gameplan/adjustments have been so lacking. I'd like to think if we switched back to a 4-3 Haslett, having all his experience with it, would get us back to a top 10-15 D within a season. And I pretty much believe it's possible. I think we have talent on defense.

And I think we have pretty awesome talent on offense. And while we've made good of that talent I pretty much believe we haven't made the best of it. The running game is elite, and tomorrow will likely prove it again. But I think overall, and especially with pass play-calling and design, we're leaving a lot out on the field. The end story stats are elite, but the story in the middle is inconsistency and especially when it counts most i.e. we leave some points on the field and in ways that seem pretty redundant.

I'd try and get Robinson in there on obvious passing downs and leave Fletch in there on run downs.

Don't be surprised if London Fletcher ends up having 2 INTs and 18 tackles.
