our secondary is complete shit house. absolute garbage

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

thing that is also troublesome is that Meriweather has been out with injury...hope he is ready to play.

At this point, M. Williams at FS, Meriweather at SS. Gomes backing up FS, Reed backing up SS, And Bernstine kinda the insurance for at both spots. Not ideal, but I do like the fact we got 2 young guys still learning and improving and Reed another vet. Id say its a no brainer and cut T Jax.

seriously, this sucks, but it's not like we were expecting him to be a pro-bowler this season. are crappy secondary will be a bit worse now. I don't think we need to go sign someone else just to sign them. unless they'd actually help us a good bit, it'd be a pointless, reactionary move.[/quote]

I'm with you. Boo friggin hoo. The Giants were ranked 28 in pass Defense last year. What did they do again? And the Pats were second to last in overall D and the 14-2 Packers were dead last.

We need to score points. Period. End of story.

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

you know what can really help a team that scores alot of points??????

A formidable defense. See patriots of early 2000 - 2007.
See colts when they finally won their superbowl. Their DEFENSE turned it on. See steelers, twice. See Ravens. See 80's niners.

Defense helps. Its the difference between Tom Brady dropping 6 TDs on you, or only 3. DIfference of a runningback having a 175 yard day with 2 tds, to a RB having 96 yds and 1 td. It matters. Alot.

People are going to throw on us all damn day this year. Unless we can somehow pull a rabbit out of a hat with our secondary.

and don't forget that the giants "happened" to back into the playoffs, and their DEFENSE carried them all day in the playoffs.

Wheres Nacy Reagan when you need her.

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

Not even sure why they even hold onto him. I'd just cut him at this point.

[quote=Mechanix544;936142]It seems that instead of universities and scouting from other teams, the redskins instead choose to recruit from halfway houses and NA meetings.[/quote]

Let's be fair, that honor goes to the Bengals in the early 2000s

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

You can't rely on these guys. If Trent Williams fails and Fred Davis, to a lesser degree, it will cost this team even more games.

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

Disappointing... Jackson was looking like a guy who could really help us out this year.

Re: Tanard Jackson Suspended by the NFL per Jay Glazer
 

This secondary will be exploited.

[quote=NC_Skins;936238]Not even sure why they even hold onto him. I'd just cut him at this point.[/quote]

Because he's a talented football player and if he goes into rehab, changes his lifestyle, and does whatever he needs to do to get reinstated, then he can help this team next season.

He is not costing the Skins a roster spot, he's not hanging around Redskins Park, and the Redskins are not paying him, so why not give him some incentive to get his life in order?

Tanard Jackson is a beast. It's too bad that he won't be on the field. I heard that this was his third suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Gomes, and whoever else playing safety needs to step up.

Some people just can't overcome their addictions. I just hope that his absence from the defense doesn't make them that much worse for it. Let's hope the other safeties step it up.
