Because that takes away from the knowledge because you're personally offended?

Man you PC guys are ruining everything.

[quote=53Fan;571833]I think, just like most of us, the coaches and FO would like to see CB take the second spot. Collins is purely insurance and not in our future plans. His age and contract are not in his favor. Colt cost less and has youth on his side. I personally would love to see him in a real game. I hope [B]IF[/B], JC doesn't work out, Colt will get his chance instead of being bypassed for another QB. Maybe he shines, maybe he bursts his fans bubble, but there's only 1 sure way to find out. But again, I'm not ready to give up on JC just yet.[/quote]

Please lets not even think JC will not work out as our starter. If he isn't our long term starting QB than we are moving backwards. We can not keep bring in new QB to learn the offense and be a SuperBowl contender. Colt B. is so green that if he had to start at QB we would be toast this year. It's a big risk to let Collins go and think Colt would be able to step in for JC if he could not play. JC has to be our guy, Gibbs gave up a #1 pick for him and he knows QB. He did when 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

[quote=Ruhskins;571843]Funny that I haven't heard a pip about JC not doing well in camp today. It's the third day peeps, chill the f' out and let the guy play.[/quote]

Well said. We got Redskins fans ready to put Colt in the starting line up after 1 week of camp. I bet none of them ever played QB at any level , just arm chair QB's. Let the real coaches coach and sit back and just watch and learn.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

[quote=70Chip;571848]This was definitely part of it. Samuel's was having the devil's own day with Orakpo and Haynesworth was giving two men all they could handle every time. Andre Carter was also coming free a couple of times.

In terms of Campbell's performance, I'm totally chill. I think he's the best QB we have. I just don't think he had a paricularly good day, even when you take the O-line into account. Remember that the pass rushers run past and play continues, so even when the O-line got blown it was still basically a 7 on 7 drill.[/quote]

So this means the Orakpo was drilling from DE?

[quote=Paintrain;571946]If you are on the fringe of FG range and throw a pick by 'going for the endzone' that's a recipe for getting a coach fired.[/quote]

Wow you read my mind. If the Redskins get to the 35 yard line and all you need is 3 points to win or tie you would not go to the endzone. Defense would sit back and let you catch it underneath but would defend the endzone. If a QB forces it in the endzone it may get picked off. The goal of the 2min drill was to get into FG range or score depending on how much time was on the clock.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

[quote=DBUCHANON101;571910]He had a tough 2 min drill today. One ran out of time and the other he threw a int. And in the QB drills he was knocked down by a barrage of pads. Its still early, we will see how it goes come preseason. Hopefully our defense is JUST THAT GOOD.[/quote]

They always say that the back up QB's are a fan favorite until they get thrown into the fire. Then they the fans have a reality check that he was a back up for a good reason. Colt B. great College career doesn't always mean a great NFL career.

I'd be completely star stuck if I saw Lattimer in person. He's probably the best fictional football character next to Johnny B. Good.

Per the Associated Press, Haynesworth received an injection on Sunday to cushion a knee that he sprained late in the 2008 season. He did not particpate in the second practice of the day.

Coach Jim Zorn reportedly described the procedure as "normal."

What isn't entirely "normal" is that Zorn's comments regarding Haynesworth were omitted from the collection of quotes from Zorn that was distributed by the team on Sunday.

I do know that Zorn said after the first day that AH was only planned to practice once a day for TC. I doubt this is anything to worry about.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

On a separate note, Terl's Blog had a decent article on Hunter Smith. It focused on him as the holder for our kicker. I wanted Smith, but didn't think about that side benefit. Sounds like he is a professional
[quote]So what makes a hold "clutch" or "accurate"? Smith seemed happy to be asked. "A good hold makes as smooth of a transition for the kicker as possible. I catch the ball, get it down quickly with the laces out and it's a matter of, wherever the snap is, I give him the same product every time and that only comes from just work."[/quote]

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

[quote=tryfuhl;571991]So this means the Orakpo was drilling from DE?[/quote]


He may have lined up at other spots as well but he was definitely at RE on some plays. (It's hard to watch everything from ground level 40 yards away with Christie Cooley 10 feet in front of you with friends to boot). At one point against shotgun by the offense, the front four from L to R was Carter Daniels Haynesworth Orakpo. You may recall that Daniels played tackle some on 3rd down situations 2 seasons ago and appparently Blache is at least considering doing that again. He certainly isn't too small for it. He's still the biggest guy out there. Maybe Heyer, Dockery and Williams are in his zip code, but Daniels is just humongous.

70-what about Marcus Mason? Anything on him?

I hear Chase had another up and down day.
