It's all Doughty's fault you know.

Dear all Redskins fans,

As frustrated as you are that we lost, imagine what the D feels like. I invite all of YOU to STFU(as someone else so eloquently put it). Thank you D Hall for caring.

Sincerely,

Not saden1

I would rather see less talk, more plays from him. I don't care how he or the D feels...this is a multi-million-dollar-grown-men sport. If he's going to talk big he should play big like my man Revis....man coverage and two yards away from your face so he can ask you nicely for your lunch money.


Awful play calling by our defensive coordinator and I suspect he could find better ways to use Hall. Can Hall cover Johnson? I f'ing highly doubt it! Stop talking, go get it!

Re: D Hall stepping up as a leader?

one thing I didn't like is when hall said "One guy caught a pass on my side". That is basically a low blow to Rogers and Buch..

Re: D Hall stepping up as a leader?

we all know damn well it's not his defense, but it doesnt have to be "his defense" for him to be a leader nor does he have to be the best player on the D to be a leader. Rock was a leader on this team for years and he was not the most talented guy on the team or the most publicly vocal. i like him getting fired up though, he's mad about the game like he should be. i would be too if i were him, he should have been covering Andre... not saying that Buch did anything wrong that play, (who knows, as we don't know the play call. lord knows if he didnt come off andre to watch the underneath stuff that would've got them a first down we'd be ripping him a new asshole right now) but D Hall is our best corner and has played like it the last two game. however, i wouldnt have gone to the media like this... but my opinion of him doesnt change because of this. all this has done is made him put his money where his mouth is. he's ready for a challenge and ready to go and there's nothing wrong with that, i like it. all eyes are on him now.


on a side note, and i hate to go here... but just imagine if we had 21 back there with Laron

Hall - Pro Bowler (proven)

Fletcher - Borderline HOFer

Landry - Pro Bowler (2011)

Orakpo - BEAST



AH-Killing Us

Re: D Hall stepping up as a leader?

Anyway....

D.Hall is on Lavar and Dukes right now. He's basically sticking to what he said, just clarifying a bit. He said him and Haslett are cool, they've worked together before and spoke right after the comments. He's saying he's starting to get his swag back and feels like he's capable of putting the team in a situation where they can win, and for him to not be in that situation is just frustration.

Basically he wants the game to put in the player's hands and not the coaching staff.

Said he's not stepping on anyone's toes on defense, no hard feelings, he's just getting back to playing ball like he did when he was in Atlanta.

Maybe it's just me but he's sounding like a professional who thinks this team is capable of winning.

Chris Cooley is about to be on for a full hour!! Damn, I gotta eat!

Re: D Hall stepping up as a leader?

Chris Cooley now weighing in. Saying he loved what D.Hall said and loves the fact that he has confidence. Cooley said the NFL is a world of political correctedness and sometimes guys like D.Hall get in trouble.

I basically agree...he's PISSED!! Spittin' nails PISSED..I hope the entire team is. We had that game in the book and let it get away....important to remember how it felt and use it next week
If this had happened last year, what would we have had? Party in the locker room? Guys laughing, joking around. HELL, we did have that...sad

Cooley thinks the running game will get on track. Said he's confident that things will start clicking. Great things to say about Trent Williams.

Re: D Hall stepping up as a leader?

Well, possibly more than any team in the NFL, we have the potential to improve through the season. ALL of our coaches and many of our guys are new. Our systems and terminology are new. With familiarity will come vast improvement. Things will start to "click". It should show from one week to the next as the season progresses...................I hope

Since the defense is ranked 32nd in the league at the moment you posted this, there is no defensive unit in the league who has the potential for greater improvement than the Redskins' defense. That is a mathematical certainty.
