Not sure I'm ok with letting one of the few legit starters on D walk. We have enough holes as it is.

I'm just beside myself that people are even entertaining this idea of getting rid of Brian Orkapo. I mean, really? Let's get rid of one of the better players on that defense, because he hasn't reached Charles Mann status yet. Rak is a young gun. Yes, he's not a Pro Bowler this year, but he's one of the better (as you said Matt, legit) starters on that defense. There are so many other pressing needs on that defense - needs that probably won't be able to be fully addressed in one off-season, so the wise thing to do is to go ahead and dig an even deeper hole with the defense by getting rid of Brian Orkapo. LOL! Wow.

Gotta wonder if Kerrigan is more banged up than we know.

Re: Skins Giants postgame

Remember the Chiefs last year? That's who we are this year. Yes the Redskins have holes at ILB, RT, RG, DL, S. Next year the CB and S should improve, Thomas will be back, Rambo will be improved, Amerson. I would target Jonathan Martin (i don't care what people say, he can play), see if Cleveland doesn't protect Mack and get him too.

You want someone who quit on his team? I mean I know Incognito is an asshole, but I dont think Martin comes out looking good at all. I wasnt impressed by his couple statements to the media. I dont know if i want someone this sensative on the team. I dont think he was playing that good either.

Do you know the whole story of what happened? The results of the investigation will be out soon, let's wait and see what comes out before saying he's a quitter.

The dude lost his job to one of the biggest, partying fools in the NFL over the last 10 years. The Dolphins were forced to trade for a dude who had hosted a party where strippers knocked out the guess with big bottles of champaign. The Dolphins said Martin is so terrible, we need Bryan McKinnie now. We know that for a fact.

What? You realize he lost his job right? They traded for McKinnie because Martin sucked so bad. Notice this bullshit in Miami didn't go down until he lost his starting position. Besides, I highly doubt the players would want a guy like that in the locker room.

Some media reporter posted a tweet that a current NFL GM told him it would be much easier to bring in Incognito than Martin.


Hell no. Scratch that. Hell Fucking No to Martin on this team.

He leads the team in quarterback hits (13), tackles for loss (11) and, according to ProFootballFocus.com, ranks 13th among all 3-4 outside linebackers in quarterback hurries (24). Profootballfocus.com also ranks the 27-year-old as the fifth most productive player at his position this season.

Re: Skins Giants postgame

Orakpo has played well and with Kerrigan being absent I don't see how the skins don't pay him. He has played well against bad and good tackles. One of his sacks was against joe staley who is a top 10 tackle for sure, arguebably a top 5 tackle.

If the redskins had other good pass rushers or depth at that position I would feel comfortable letting him go. The skins have neither of those things so they have to pay him.

Re: Skins Giants postgame

If we were desperate with no cash to spend like 2012 and 2013, sure, take a chance on Martin but I don't want him when we can actually afford an option that doesn't have a history of being a quitter. Same goes for drug addicts, drunk drivers, rapists and those facing a big ban for multiple PED offenses.

So we bring in Jonathan Martin and D-Hall gets on his case to step up his game and give the D a chance to catch their breath...what does he do?

I keep hearing names like Britt, Talib, even Fing Incognito on here.

No. We can actually afford to improve this team. We need to clean house of guys who don't care like Fred Davis, guys who can't stay pit of trouble like Meriweather and guys who can't play like Polumbus.

Really for the first time in the Shanahan era, we can actually make some positive improvements. No more Vinny ciontracts on the books, no more Vinny cap penalty. We're missing draft picks but that doesn't concern me, we've watch them turn nothiing into a lot on draft days and they can do it again.

Re: Skins Giants postgame

We could've really used Jordan Reed last night.

RG3 is a one man team out there. Outside of Alfmo, I feel like he really doesn't trust any of his receivers, hence why even if he has wide open receivers he'd rather just run with the ball.

So far RG3 has thrown, run and even threw a shitty block. Next thing we'll have him trying to catch the ball.
