Speaking of easing in a player. Would you all welcome back Tanard and immediately put him in as the starting FS knowing he's rusty but Rambo is also a rookie, or do you go with the growing pains of getting a young rookie safety acclimated to the NFL as a starter since the other starter hasn't played in a regular season game in 2 years?

Absolutely would not start him immediately.

There's a huge difference between your starting franchise QB and a free agent safety who has been suspended for drugs three time and has not stepped on a field in 2+ years. We don't even know if he's stayed in football shape. He could be a nice addition but he could also fail his physical.

It's assuming that RG3 was healthy enough to play, which I think he was; and that he wouldn't have got hurt.

Oh yeah I guess another positive is Mr. Riley. He played a hell of a game. We should work out a long term deal with him soon, because London's gone next year.

Also when did he start going by Perry Riley Jr. ?

I think getting more snaps during the Offseason and training camp, during practice, is far more beneficial than a drive or two in a preseason game. That's a more thorough and productive activity for any player.

Clearly rg3 wasn't ready for that, otherwise he'd been out there.

That's why I think Skips statement is pretty shortsighted.

London Fletcher - Fallen Star? - Hogs Haven

Which is why we had no business bringing Fletcher back at the type of salary he's at. It was stupid.

In 2007 the Giants looked awful in weeks one and two. They proceeded to win the Super Bowl.

We have problems but it is just one game.

That's not knee jerk. This was being said long before last night. It was said much of last season as well.

After one game... pretty much everything is knee jerk today.

Re: Skins v Eagles post game thread

It's not like we had a whole lot of options at MLB... Perry Riley and... ? Old ass Nick Barnett? Kehl makes plays here and there but is he starting caliber?

We'll probably look to draft a MLB or bring in some young FA's the next offseason.

I do think there's value in the NFL to having a guy who can adjust your defense on the fly and keep you out of bad defensive calls. And we're not going to go against McCoy every week, meaning Fletcher might actually tackle a running back this year.

But man, he's pretty close to finished.
