damn shame. I hope T Jax is in football shape, need to get him reinstated and back with the team.

Who knew he'd be the most indispensible player of our organization?

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

I have to imagine Dejon Gomes just let out a sigh of relief.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

^ I think Jordan Pugh is in better shape than Gomes.

Phillip Thomas was probably the worst of our 3 rookie DBs. Losing him is a lot better than losing Rambo or Amerson. Let him get healthy and learn the system next year.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

There goes one rookie. Hopefully the other two rookies can stay healthy and develop.

We shouldn't expect much from any of them anyway, seeing as how rookie safeties almost always do bad their first year. Might be a sign of things to come if he was injured in college and then gets injured in his first preseason game. Now it is all on Rambo to show promise otherwise the Skins might have to look at next years draft again for DB's.

Had that three years ago. Foot still ain't right. Of course ... I was 47 and not in peak NFL condition either.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

In semi related news today, David Amerson hurt his thumb in practice. Hopefully nothing serious.

So far, Chris Johnson juke move aside, Rambo is good. Knock on wood.

Would suck if it was anything serious with Amerson. Has been the only rookie DB to show any promise thus far (but it has only been one preseason game so that can change very quickly).

What makes you think that?

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

[quote=SirLK26;1018757]What makes you think that?[/quote]

Losing him would be less substantial than it would be to lose Rambo or Amerson. Thomas must likely was not going to start this season. Unlike Rambo who is already starting (more due to the fact that there is no other FS on the team worth mentioning), and Amerson probably has more potential than either of them. But these are just opinions, except the depth chart status, that is a fact.

I can understand that. But he's saying Thomas isn't as good. I want to know why.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

Just because he's the worst of the three doesn't mean he sucks.

Honestly after one training camp and a preseason game it is hard to make any assumptions about any of the rookies.

At this point last year Morris was a blip on the teams radar.

How can a man not be in peak condition at 47 ? I hope you can find a good P/Therapist or even some Chiropractors are good with those kinds of inj's .

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

Hahaha.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

Have to say, this is music to my eyes. From WaPo's Mike Jones on Tuesday practice observations:

[QUOTE]Alfred Morris has been working to improve his pass protection skills, and today he stuck Perry Riley on a stunt off the right edge with a hard block and kept the linebacker from getting to Kirk Cousins on one play in 11-on-11 action. Had it been a game, [B]however, it wouldn’t have mattered, because Brian Orakpo had beaten Trent Williams and would’ve hit Cousins on his blind side.[/B][/QUOTE]

I guess a pessimist could look at that and say well great, Trent isn't holding up the blind side. Trent is the last guy I'm worried about. To see Orakpo get that sack on Locker and hear him beating Trent in practice, beautiful thing. Nothing impacts the game and changes momentum like a QB sack.

What about a crucial turnover in overtime?

Yeah let's wait and see before we say anyone is really good. Rambo looked like a clown last week but does that mean he sucks? No it's just PS

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

Has anybody heard anything about Tanard Jackson status, anything new?

He can play both safety positions. Thomas down is probably done for the year, to replace him with T Jax would be great. Im not sold on Merriweather being ready, just dont have the confidence he is going to be able to perform at 100%. Best case at this point is to rotate in packages Merriweather/Reed at SS and Rambo at FS. If Rambo would struggle, having Tanard Jackson there playing behind him would be nice insurance. If Merrriweather would have a setback, you could play T Jax/Reed at SS. I dont care how good Gomes or Pugh are playing...T Jax is still more valuable and a better player.

I hate to say it, but we kinda need the guy. He would be a bonus to have back. We arent going to rely on him long term obviously but one year would be great that is a tall order though for a guy who has an obvious drug problem.

He is still 2 weeks away from being able to apply for reinstatement. Wont be anything new until he can do that. No clue on how long it will take the NFL to decide if they are going to reinstate him or not.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

Is it a question of guys being able to be coached up by Raheem- a former head coach and expected overly qualified DB coach, or do guys lacking superstar talent like Pugh and Gomes never elevate their game?
Holding our breath for TJax sucks. It's year 2 of fearing being near a potential safety deficiency. Any chance Pugh/Gomes are wiser from aforementioned coaching?

I think he hates Shanahan specifically. This is his way of getting back at him, by f'ing with RG3. Pathetic.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread 3.0
 

I read the article and then started reading the comments. The Eagles fans are ripping McNabb and saying RG3 should stay away from him. The comments are pretty funny actually. When the Eagles fans are saying these things, that pretty much says it all.

McNabb is trying to be controversial to stay relevant. He still looks the fool for saying Shanny wouldnt change his offense for RG3, then proceeded to run his mouth after the offense was designed specifically for RG3.

I'm on my phone so someone else can feel free to post a link with information.

mcnabb's spent more time trying to trash the skins than he did playing for them.
