10 NFL truths

Another espn analyst has jumped on the skins band wagon, this time jason whitlock...

6. But I don't like the Cowboys as much as I like the Washington Redskins, my pick to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
Washington made one mistake this offseason, letting LaVar Arrington escape to a team within the division. Other than that, you have to love what the Skins did.
New offensive coordinator Al Saunders is a bit of a glory hound. He campaigned for the Kansas City head coaching job by gassing up members of the media. But make no mistake, the guy knows how to call plays. He has a terrific imagination, and he has a major chip on his shoulder because he's out to prove he deserves another shot at being a head coach.
The Redskins added two receivers -- Brandon Lloyd and Antwaan Randle El -- during the offseason to play with Santana Moss. Wow. Clinton Portis in the backfield, a trio of talented receivers, H-back Chris Cooley and Saunders calling plays. QB Mark Brunell can't screw that up.
And, of course, the Skins play outstanding defense, even without Arrington.

That's a pretty fair assessment. I still would prefer LaVar be here, but that's neither here nor there. I guess he weighed in because he was quite familiar with Saunders the playcalling.

OHH crap, he also said Joey Harrington will be the starter and the Ravens will be beating the skins in the Super Bowl?? tisk tisk tisk Credibility goes

Whitlock picked the Skins to rep the NFC in the Super Bowl last year towards the end of the season. So I'd say he's one of the first on the ole bandwagon (at least since the wheels fell off a few years ago).

MTK · 07-20-2006, 03:32 PM

What I like is someone is finally acknowledging what we all know about LaVar and the defense... we are and have been FINE without him.

MightyJoeGibbs · 07-20-2006, 03:38 PM

I want Matty's job. It seems like he is at work getting paid talking about the Redskins- which didn't work out for me b/c I quit my job to pursue un/meaningful Skins conversations. (Half truth, but sad reality)

No, we all "work". Do notice the quotation marks.

As far as TK's concerned, the bandwagon will never take flight again...

Whitlock's a KC boy, so I trust that he knows what Al Saunders brings to the table...
