and he's "moody." what a queer

Re: Arrington...
 

he had an impact when he was here. but then again, so did steve spurrier

Re: Arrington...
 

That's the most I've heard from him all season. Once again his words are louder than his actions.

Re: Arrington...
 

the only reason he wants to play for marty is because marty let him do whatever he wanted to, like free-lance

And this just in from FOX:

[url=http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/5984612]FOX Sports - NFL - Every Play Counts: LaVar Arrington[/url]

[I]So now that Arrington is in a new environment, is he able to play within the confines of the defense? Watching Arrington on every play of the Giants' victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday showed that he doesn't seem to know what he's doing in pass coverage, has lost the blend of speed and power that once made him a terror as a pass rusher,[/I] [B]and generally looks washed up at the age of 28.[/B]

Wow, harsh....

Re: Arrington...
 

not a single person should be suprised.

Re: Arrington...
 

can we talk about champ bailey, fred smoot, or patrick ramsey please

Re: Arrington...
 

What about married people? I know I am not surpised. I am actually surprised he is till on the field. I figured he be laid up for a few weeks by now.

Lavar was a great player. The knee injuries are tough to get over and i think the extent of his knee injuries were never really known. He looks overweight and slow.

Arrignton can't cover. He is best used blitzing the QB, and I think Marvin Lewis was the only def coor to understand what his true talents are /were...

Marvin Lewis is a football genius.
That being said, Arrington was an extremely talented LB, but he refused to follow a system and demanded to be a free lancer. He is almost useless to other teams because of that fact. Also, injuries have taken their toll, he'll likely never be the same. It's a shame really...he was "the next Lawrence Taylor".

LaVar may have had some talent, but to compare him to LT is a stretch. I don't know if you ever saw LT play, but LaVar can't carry his jockey strap. LT was a one man wrecking crew and every team in the league feared playing against him. He was truly one of a kind, a HOfamer. He changed the course of football games all by himself, LaVar could never do that.

Re: Arrington...
 

sean taylor and shawn merriman play more like LT than lavar ever did.

Re: Arrington...
 

The only person keeping this going is Lavar. He is dead to me.

All I care about is if this bum Carter can put some pressure on a decimated offensive line.

Don't count on it. Whatever happened to the theory that Carter would at least draw double teams and open things up for Daniels?

Time to start up "Sack-Watch 2006" for the two starting defensive ends ...

Two games -- ZERO sacks.

hate to say it but san fran was onto something by trying to convert carter to a LB....he a little smallish to play DE in the NFL.

Hate to say it, but maybe they were on to something by cutting Carter and Lloyd loose.

Re: Arrington...
 

when we were looking at lloyd i kept saying his highlight reel was so short that they had to include the same 4 catches 3 different times. I got royally blasted for it too :P Just like I got blasted for originally saying collins sucks. He's not a bad WR, but he'll make as many bad plays as good ones.

good blocker though.

Re: Arrington...
 

It's probably not fair to criticize Lloyd just yet since every facet of our offense is in complete disarray. At the rate we're going, it's feasible that we'll see from Lloyd in '06 what we saw from David Patten in '05 -- without the injury.

I used quotations because that was moniker that was labelled on him after getting out of Penn St. You are right that he was no LT, but Lavar wasted his talent away. I know we are all upset about Lavar, but we need not forget how good he was for us.
Yes, I watched LT's entire career, he was a beast. Unequivically the best LB of all time.

Re: Arrington...
 

Funny, we think we have defensive problems. They let go two linebackers from last year. One of which is playing pretty solid ball right now. On top of that, as the article stated and ESPN just reported, Emmons is out for at least three weeks.

I just don't see this team making the playoffs. No way, no how.

Didn't SF switch to a 3/4 base? In that case he is really small to be taking on Tackles Every down.

Switching Ellis to LB has really improved the Dallas Defense. Sure he is a bit of a liability in the flat, but he is a 275lb run stopping meance on the strong side who can rush the passer.

Funny how they are talking about him understanding the scheme and working on being in the right place and not making mental mistakes. Where have I heard this stuff before?

Re: Arrington...
 

Arrington has NEVER been a good football player ,, NEVER . He makes a few big hits , gets a big return on an int. and thats it . He never made a tackle on third and short during all the close games we lost , and he only made 1 big sack when we needed one < K. Warner > . Great athlete , average lb at best . Maybe if he had been in 3-4 defence he could have been scary ? Hope he can stay healthy , and hope he looks lost when we kick the giants ass !

Re: Arrington...
 

Lavar's problem is that he thinks he's smarter than he is, he thinks he's funnier than he is and he thinks he's a better player than he is. Maybe if he had shut up and taken advice from some excellent coaches he would have turned out better. Let's remember, it was not only Williams and Lindsay that found him lacking, but Marvin Lewis basically flat out gave up on him. Bottom line is good riddance.

Re: Arrington...
 

how about we try to focus on the players that the redskins have, not some washed up linebacker thats just about out of this league

Re: Arrington...
 

omfg i have seen it all now. LA is now on inside the nfl blasting the skins again. He needs to concentrate on football.

Re: Arrington...
 

[quote=railcon56;217244]Nice Dogtag... wish him well.... why down the man[/quote]

LA asked to leave the Redskins organization and he did just that. In my book that makes him water under the bridge. When you leave an organization of your own free will, you don't come back. To do so implies that you failed in your preferred career path choices.

Don't look for him to come back after all the bridges he burned with the Redskins organization.

Other than that, I wish him well in life.

Yeah I watched that last night. I like how Costas wouldn't let him run away from the questions. I like how Lavar said that there was no system to play in here, he's the coolest ! I can't wait until the 8th, he will be the reason the Giants lose that game.

Re: Arrington...
 

It continues to really shock me how MANY talented players through ridiculous decisions, and actions wind up on the wrong side of a coach, team or the law thus ending what is everybody's idea oa a "dream life".

"Can I supersize that for you today?"

Re: Arrington...
 

I do remember one awesome play LA made ... he was at Penn St. and it was something like 4th and 1. he timed the snap so well, that he jumped over the o-line, and tackled the ball carrier immediately. it was pretty sweet ... anyone else remember that?
