Carlos Rogers talks smack on Shawn Springs?

This kid is turning out to be a real disappointment. According to Bram, here's what he said:

Asked if the team should find a way to being Shawn Springs back, Rogers paused and said “He’s a guy who is about to be paid a lot of money and only played a few games this year. If they restructure that would be great, if they don’t we’ll have to work in the new guy.”

Bram Show


At this point, Id rather have a gimpy old Springs than Carlos back there any day of the week. I know it doesn't read that bad, but I don't think teammates should do this, Spring has been a solid Redskin since coming here only suffering a setback this year.

If he really said that he is a fool. Stay away from any questions about other players contracts especially when you are an underperforming top ten draft pick.

You have to be f-in kidding that he said that...

I do. He's talking about a respected established Redskin and how he needs to hit the pavement or restructure. What do you think the other vets will think about Carlos now? He should just shut up and thank God NIGHTLY that he can count his millions while being a draft bust.

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

While Carlos never should have said anything like that about a teammate, he's right. With the end of last season and most of this season, Springs has shown that he has trouble staying healthy. Therefore, we might have to consider our options with him.

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

I agree that he should have probably said "no comment" but he didn't actually call out SS. He did say it would be great if he restructured. I think we need to stop picking apart the things that these guys say like they are running for political office.

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

Sounds like he's just speaking the truth. It's no secret that if Springs comes back he'll have to restructure.

The way Carlos talks you would think that he was good or something wouldn't you?
He should be worrying about some "new guy" being "worked in" his position the way that he got toasted this year. He has nickle back written all over him

# 1 - You should keep your mouth shut in regards to other players business.

# 2 - What he said was pretty much right on. We can't afford to pay a guy top dollar for 10 games. Restructure or well sign a healthy CB to take your place.

He's right, but he's not the one who should be saying it.

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

The truth hurts. Probaboly shouldnt have said it, but I'm not mad at him for saying it. It's pretty much common knowledge; so I dont think he meant to say "we need to get this guy out of here".

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

The only thing wrong with what he said was that he didn't say, "and we really need him back next year, because look at how we did when he was out of the lineup".

Just because Carlos played like ass this year doesn't change the facts about Springs' contract and situation as he explained them. You also can't tell from that text what his tone or context was in saying that.

the players will be the first ones to tell you its a business. its definitely not good business to talk about a fellow employee. now what would rogers say if someone in redskins management said to him, " since thats how you feel, you have pretty much had a sub par season, how about restructuring, or will have to break in a new guy"

Re: Carlos talks smack on Shawn Springs?

I also didn't like the shot at getting paid millions and only playing a few games. Carlos doesn't have any right to be speaking about team mates in any way. He is only a 2nd year guy and got beat more than a drum at a montley crew concert. He needs to keep his mouth shut.
