Landry is now a bust!

Let's be clear here: The "standard" I reference is Blache's. It's could be called the "Landry standard" for all I care. Has nothing to do with Hall. It's defined as the standard given to players who Blache views as an integral part of our future, and how they don't have to worry about getting examples made out of them. They basically play by a different set of rules than players like Horton and Rogers, who are on a different "show me" standard for their play.

The ironic part is that Blache's opinion of our future has no relevance, and he should be treating all players the same, because that's what's actually in the best interest of this franchise.

It's not wrong to be critical of those who are unfairly critical of players on the Redskins (I do this with people who are unfairly critical of the QB all the time), but I doubt you can find even one instance where I have been overtly unfair to either Hall or Landry. You can go look it up, but you won't find it.

exactly.. at least superman and put your arms out so that you can jerk him down while you go sailing if the hit doesn't do it on its own

bad angles and too many knockout attempts.. he thinks he's king shit every time he's the 2nd guy in on a tackle already being made.. after a 1st down yesterday he was still in the face of the guy for a few seconds before getting up

I think that it's been well demonstrated that he has a bad attitude between that, not showing up for public performances, saying stupid shit like roy williams was scared after the dallas game that we lost, etc

I know that they said they wanted Landry to be more of a big play guy this year but maybe they should pull back from that... the kid obviously needs to be coached up some more, I feel like they're just saying oh he's Landry he's fine

With 11 minutes, 30 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter and the Redskins holding an eight-point lead, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb connected with wide receiver Jason Avant over the middle. Landry lined Avant up for a big hit, but the Eagles' receiver bounced off and sprinted down the field for a 46-yard gain that moved the Eagles to the Redskins' 44-yard line.

"He made a great catch," Landry said. "I bounced off. You seen it like I saw it. He just made a great play."

The play helped spark the Eagles' game-tying drive, but when asked if he wished he had done something differently Landry was noncommittal.

"I mean, I was just trying to make a play," Landry said. "It wasn't my responsibility. I was just at the right place at the right time when he made the catch."

not only did he bounce off, he got knocked to the ground whereas Jason Avante just shrugged it off. WTF Landry

I'm so done with this non tackling showboating loser.

Yup!

Maybe they should put together a "lowlight" film of him bouncing off people and show it to him so he can see how ridiculous he looks.

If I were the coach of the defense Landry wouldn't even be starting. He's such a disappointment, as everyone else has said. Maybe we can trade and get an offensive lineman for Landry.

Landry is so far down the list of concerns it is comical. He played like an all pro in the Dallas game.

I know he is inconsistent but the gap between him and all of the other safeties on our team is bigger than Strahan's teeth.

Need I remind everyone that he is a key component to one of the top secondaries in football.

Brush up on beginner sentence comprehension and then come back to me. Not to mention you didn't even read the whole post.

Seriously?

Regarding that #1 ranking against the pass, let's not forget some of the quarterbacks we've faced this year...

Manning (NYG) ranked #12
Bulger (STL) ranked #26
Stafford (DET) ranked # 20
Freeman (TB) ranked # 46
Delhomme (CAR) ranked #21
Cassel (KC) ranked #24
McNabb (PHI) ranked #19
Ryan (ATL) ranked # 18
Orton/Simms (DEN) Orton is #15, Simms is unranked
Romo ranked #7 -- so far, the highest ranked

So apart from Romo and maybe Eli Manning, we haven't exactly faced tough competition this year from opposing QBs. That changes this weekend, of course.

Wow! 46!

Are these their rankings when they played us or now?

read it all still feel the same, and i read it all the first time. and if you want me to go futher into your post you are saying he is a key component in a statistically good d, but they do give up big plays, of which it is usually the safties fault(unless los is covering the receiver)

regardless of his cover abilities, he MAKES PLAYS. isn't this what the league is all about?

I love how people want to dismantle the one part of our team that we excel at.
