Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

"He's had a really good week of practice," Williams said of Arrington. "I feel real good about his playing and real good about where he's at. The last two weeks, he's taken some strides physically. It looks like his legs are back. He's bouncing around pretty good out there."

I cant wait to see our boy out there laying same wood to the 49ers. It will be awesome.

The season is saved!

[QUOTE=TheMalcolmConnection]What are we going to talk about now?:madani:[/QUOTE]

On monday, after LaVar goes nuts on the field we'll get to go after all the people who said he sucked, and get rid of him. I can not wait!!

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Don't worry Malcom, I'm sure someone will find something to complain about...LOL!!!

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I don't think anybody said he sucked and wanted him gone, most of us were just supporting Williams' decision to bench him. That's all.

I'm still a huge LaVar fan, in fact I'm sporting his jersey at work today, but as I've said before I trust this staff and I trust that the decisions they make are in the best interest of the entire team.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I just want to see him go absolutely apeshit on Alex Smith.

Imagine if you're Smith and you're like, "At least I only have to deal with Taylor."

And then you get the news LaVar Arrington will be playing with something to prove! Ow.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I still don't think he can play within the system on a consistent basis. I love the guy, but I think everyone will be watching when he finally gets on the field to see if he is busting his assignments....I hope he proves everyone wrong and returns to greatness!

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Well, those goes the Lavar threads ...


Anybody got any new "The Ade" jokes?

I think the title of this thread should be more like "Good News Redskins Fans!"

I don't think we'll have to worry about making any. We have ALL THREE starting corners back!!! :biggthump

If LaVar comes out and tears it up this Sunday, like he's been capable of in the past, who's to say that he could have done it in previous weeks?

My stance, along with many others, is that I trust Williams and Co to put the best player out on the field. I don't know how any *fan* can question this coaching staff. I am a fan of LaVar (have a jersey and license plates that say "LaVar"), but that fandom does not trump my loyalty to the team, and the coaches, that are returning this team to greatness.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Maybe this was a "scheme" the whole time by the coaching staff. He was not 100%, regardless of what we may have heard??? Maybe the knee couldn't have held up over a 14 week span??? Maybe he still won't play??? Who the hell knows, hopefully he gets in there and rips somebody's head off and creates a turnover!

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I think he will see quite a bit of playing time this week, he also made mention and the discussion that Holdman has not been comfortable with his play or something to the effect that he knew Holdman has not been playing well the past few weeks, but solid. I can't remeber the quote, but the talk about Holdman mediocre play and the talk of Lavar and his good feeling about playing is promising.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

LA better get the job done or else it will look like GW was correct in holding him out. This is LAs chance to right the ship and get his career back on track and in the big picture, a good remainder of the season would make it easier for the skins to trade LA and actually get something of value for him.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Do you think they'll trade him if he comes in and plays like we all hope and expect him to?

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

If he comes in and plays at a high level, and more importantly plays within the system to Williams' satisfaction, I think he'll remain a Redskin.

At this point it's all up to LaVar.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I wonder how much of LaVar's (apparent) increased playing time is actually because of the relative strength of our opponent? Would the coaching staff take a gamble on LaVar playing within the system if we were playing Philly, or do the Niners give us a little "room for error"?

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I'm thinking it'll be a gradual phase-in. I'd think if it were NY or Philly they would maybe give him a few select snaps and wait for someone like SF to give him some real playing time.

I think WIlliams has allways wanted Lavar on the field he was just uncomfortable with his play in the system. Now that Lavar is showing more control in the system this is a great game to see how he plays. Its way to soon to talk about a Lavar trade we have to see how thing go this season.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I think a trade would go one way or another. I mean say he comes in and is a bust, do you think anyone would give anything of value for him considering his contract?

And if he comes in and kicks ass, I'm sure he'll be an integral part of the D that we all expect him to. I really have some good feelings about him this Sunday.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I would like to think all the fan backlash and media attention has a little to do with Levar getting some snaps and maybe Levar himself stepped up his intensity in practice because of all attention. It's a no-lose situation for the coaching staff, if Levar steps up and plays well, they can say, "The timing was right". If he fails to make a difference, they can say, "I told you so". I'm hoping, "THE TIMING IS RIGHT".

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Williams' comments highlighted that maybe they felt Arrington wasn't physically ready to go in. I wonder if that was at least part of it?

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

Honestly, I hope so.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

[QUOTE=FRPLG]Williams' comments highlighted that maybe they felt Arrington wasn't physically ready to go in. I wonder if that was at least part of it?[/QUOTE]

Very well could have been a part of it.

LaVar rushed himself back last time and look what happened.

We should also remember that LaVar hasn't seen significant action in a long time, he missed a lot of camp and probably wasn't in top football shape.

Perhaps the staff had their doubts and didn't want to take any chances in rushing him back. I still think there are other issues at play here, but one that's been overlooked could definitely be him being physically ready to handle the load.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I'll believe it when I see him on the field. The proof is in the pudding. Let's just wait and see.
Trading Lavar is not an option. I don't see how the team can take that huge cap hit.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

[QUOTE=Mattyk72]LaVar rushed himself back last time and look what happened.[/QUOTE]
And then got pissy about it when he got hurt blaming the team when it was him pushing to come back. Remember, it isn't his fault. Lavar is always the victim.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I think no matter how he plays he will be traded. For whatever reason LA is just not GWs guy (like PR was not Gibbs' guy) and nothing he does will change that.

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

[QUOTE=TheMalcolmConnection]I'm thinking it'll be a gradual phase-in. I'd think if it were NY or Philly they would maybe give him a few select snaps and wait for someone like SF to give him some real playing time.[/QUOTE]

Are you suggesting that SF is incapable of beating us??? Oh man, wait until Joe Gibbs hears about this ("5 media outlets and the Warpath have indicated that this is a gimme"). Thanks for being part of the problem dude! :laughing-

Evil Joe is gonna get you Malcolm!

(P.S - I agree with you. Remember, one of the reasons they gave for not playing him against Denver was that Denver played a lot of cutback that required lane discipline. Perhaps, just perhaps, lane discipline may not be much of a factor when there are any lanes created by SF in the first place).

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

I may need to edit... :smashfrea

Re: Good News Lavar Fans!!!
 

SF is an NFL team. They may be a doormat but I gurantee they can be beat us. We need to be motivated just as much for this game as a Dallas game. I think anything less than a drubbing is unacceptable.
Best thing going for us? Alex Smith. If they don't blitz him I will choke.

Wanna bet Williams goes next year and LaVar stays??? Please let him become a head coach somewhere...

Holy F*** ing Sh**!! Are you wishing that Greg "the only reason we weren't 0-16 last year" Williams leaves?! That's beyond crazy talk. That is just idiotic.

Whether LaVar stays or goes, I hope Williams is still here and stays here for the forseeable future.

that's the first thing i thought too... I mean, can he really lose the game for us against the 49ers?

[QUOTE=irish]I think no matter how he plays he will be traded. For whatever reason LA is just not GWs guy (like PR was not Gibbs' guy) and nothing he does will change that.[/QUOTE]PR was just not the best QB we had at the time and we have all seen that. If PR was the better QB he would be our starter. This is getting old that people think that our coaches would just have a player in because they were one of the players they had picked or liked. If any coaches used that formula they would have very short careers as coaches in the NFL and to make the assumption that our coaches would do that is just plan crazy. If Gibbs coached that way he would have never won a SB and at last count he has won three.

you really need help, GW won games for us last year, lavar didn't. How can you be a bigger fan of lavar than the team? that seems kinda nuts.
