[quote=CRedskinsRule;983171]Is it me, or does DHall seem like he has matured a bit. His description of playing Bryant was by far the first time where he sounded respectful, not mouthy. And watching the game again last night, it just seemed like he was intent on playing his position, not being the limelight guy. [B]I could even take it all the way back to the one interception where he didn't take it in for the TD(right/wrong choice - it was not the glory hog of old).[/B] If he can keep his attitude and tone focused, then he may be worth keeping around.[/quote]onside kick return, but the message is still the same.

DeAngelo Hall joined 106.7 the Fan in Washington D.C. with LaVar and Dukes to talk about how the team turned things around after a 3-6 start to the season, how much better it is for the Redskins to play on Sunday as opposed to Saturday, whether he did anything special to get in the head of Dez Bryant the other night, if he thinks Washington can go on a Giants-like run this season and [u]whether they feel like they have an advantage when it comes to playing Russell Wilson and the Seahawks because they get to practice against Robert Griffin III[/u].[/quote]

By the same token, the seahawks defense (which is already infinitely better than ours) has an advantage against us because they get to practice against Wilson... who is not wearing a brace and limping around. My gut tells me we find a way to win this game, but we should not be favored in any aspect of the game. We are clear underdogs, and thats how i like it.

Just looking at some of their players who may be available, there may be some solid helpful aquisitions available. I, for one, wouldn't mind finding a way to fit Chris Gamble onto the roster.

How does that work for playoff teams exactly? Like if we had an injury in the safety position Sunday and won, could we elevate Holland to the 53? Or is he just eligible for play next year?

A lot of times drunk people are insistent that they are "fine to drive" and in fact do so. I've had a friend that did exactly that back in the day and wouldn't be surprised if this were the case as well.

Went to the Seattle game last year. The team fought hard, even though the season was already toast, and I remember wondering if there's still beef over playoff losses 2005/2007. Extra motivation among our guys vs Seattle?

I don't think so, really other than a few guys this team is completely different then 2007. I just think we r so hungry to win and Griffin is starving to be the best, he still has that chip on his shoulder of not being taken number 1 IMO.

To be fair my guess is he didn't much notice that there was a kid standing out there. She was like 10 yards away. It's not like he wasd yelling at her. I do love how Fletcher basically steps in front of him and is ready to lay the wood.

I agree with Billick on who should get the awards and he has great reasoning behind his choices. RG3 or Wilson could get Rookie of the Year and both would be deserving.
