Right. Blame the entire horseshit defense on one player. You're the kind of fan that loves Snyder spending money on problems and not signing solid players that stay for years and grow with the team.

For you to not think that Andre Carter was a good signing after the way he finished the season tells me you're clueless.

No your clueless.

See, just as much analysis and information in my post, but not nearly as wordy.

Re: M. Washington at defensive end in passing situations

I'm a make this simple I go to Madden 07 for my football ratings and if you change MW position from LB to DE his overall rating is 99. (Madden 08 coming soon) LOL. I've been playing with that roster for months now, I'm glad to see the coaching staff finally caught up......SNYDER GIVE ME A JOB!!!!!!

They battled injuries all year. Carter has the ability to make plays and he displayed that several times in the second half.

Sometimes it takes guys a while to pick up complicated schemes. Both our offense and defense are pretty complicated and there were several new parts last year.

Everyone who has played for Saunders said that it really takes two years to learn. That bodes well for this year.

The defense had huge injuries on every level and many people playing out of position. They will improve significantly this year.

Add an average to above average offense with a good to very good defense and anything could happen in the NFC.

Dallas and New York have taken significant steps back. If they can split with Philly, they have a chance to win the division.

He played DE in college and isn't very much lighter than some DEs around the league. LaVar managed 11 sacks rushing from the DE spot, I think MW could be capable of similar results.

Re: M. Washington at defensive end in passing situations

MW at end in nickel downs is a great idea. He is a fumble maker and will have the quicks - and space wide - to get around the OT.

Great idea. Keeps your best players on the field.

Re: M. Washington at defensive end in passing situations

We can second guess player acquisitions/contracts all day long, but in the end these are the players we have so let's find a way to use them the best way possible.

Carter started off pretty weak last year, but finished strong. If he picks up where he left off he might end up looking like a good deal in the end.

Actually Andre Carter is the best pass rusher we had. He showed it when he didn't have to think as much on technique.

I still say Marcus Washington is our best pas rusher.

It wasn't Carter so much as it was Holdman.

I agree, there aren't a ton of D Ends who play the run well. Carter should be disruptive, but there should be linebackers making plays against the run. To hold him entirely responsible for having a poor run defense on his side is asinine.

The beauty of this is we'll find out soon enough if the line was the problem or the LBs and secondary.
