Landry is now a bust!

Although, I think us fans seriously underrate his contribution to this defense because he's only on the T.V. feed when he's screwing up. Back in the first half of the season when Landry played 30 yards off the LOS, he was a sideline to sideline threat, who could be manipulated by the eyes of the quarterback, but had to be accounted for on every deep pass. His impact on the game never showed up on tape when that was the case.

What Landry needs is a complementary safety who is the complete package, knows how to play zone coverage (unlike Doughty, who can only play man), and can play the free safety in certain packages.

Someone like unrestricted free-agent-to-be...Ryan Clark. (Or Darren Sharper, if Grilliams lets him walk for big bucks)

gtripp, let me start by saying i really value your opinion. your knowledge is first rate, and usually spot on. but your pure hatred for Hall is starting to cloud your opinions. let it go. we get it, already. if you were calling the shots for the skins, Hall wouldn't be here. but enough already

This is a good point too. Hall is our best corner now. Rogers has regressed and Hall's play has improved.

Hall is not anywhere close to the top of our problems, either.

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.
