Re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Ravens)

I think Gtripp has more of a personal issue and hatred against Hall, and it's starting to lash out.

Hall plays great, and he's a great playmaker in the NFL. How many other Redskins have taken INT's back to the house since Sean Taylor? I'm thankful he is here, and he has his good and bad moments, but in the NFL today. There isn't one DB that doesn't have a breakdown in coverage or something a few times a year.

Hall's a good player, but as I said before...his ability to be a playmaker is also his biggest weakness. I think people get frustrated by the breakdown in coverage. Similar situation with Rogers, he was a very good cover receiver, but was not able to catch a cold. I guess we all want these guys to be Nnamdi or Revis, but they aren't. So you'll hear complains here and there.

I can't speak to Gtripp's personal issue or possible hatred against Hall.....however he is right that Hall does put himself before team in his on field play.

I'm not even referring to the incident after the TD. You are 100% correct, Hall is a great playmaker.....however he also gives up a great deal of plays too and is a poor tackler. Nothing has changed with Hall over the years, he is who he is. Unfortunately we're a bit thin at CB and Hall is our # 1.

I agree 100%. Nice post Sammy.

I think this is correct, but we're not talking about a situation like TO or Randy Moss at their worst. Honestly, I wish his attitude would change, but you have to trust Mike Shanahan's ability to keep the team disciplined. My thinking is if Shanahan doesn't think it is an issue, then it isn't an issue.
