Exactly...

Although I mean its hard to disagree with him, one of the biggest problems I've had with the coaches is that they are so set in their ways with a scheme, they dont try to build around the players... Look at Jason Taylor last year... ok they didn't want them, I get that, but once they got him, why not use him for what he's good at...

I think it's more of a case of the front office not working with the coaching staff. If we had competent front office people then they would've known that Jason Taylor was not a good fit here. Mainly cause he plays AC's position. Also if Blache plays more of a conservative read and react scheme and wants his DT's to stay at home then the FO shouldn't have wasted their time getting AH.

cool this is what we need. Another player going to the media to complain...Carlos, Clinton, now Phat Albert...that how we do things in DC...great

I don't particularly care for the scheme, but Haynesworth needs to keep his criticisms in house. I don't like it when Portis mouths off to the press and I don't like it when Haynesworth does it either. What good does it do to talk to the press about the fact that you think that your coaches (i.e., your bosses) suck? I recognize that Haynesworth can be a dominant player, but this is precisely why I had serious reservations about the team pursuing him in free agency. Keep your trap shut Albert.

Exactly, ...it does us no good at all. Media is going to jump all over this and twist and turn it into something else...dont like it. typical soap opera Skins bullshit...national media gonna jump all over it....blah blah blah..cant wait for the season to be over and this coaching staff to just go the f*ck away...

Albert has become image conscious. He has heard the rumblings about him not playing all the plays, not worth his contract and other things he considers not to be true.

His speaking out (though I don't neccessarily agree with his method) is his way of trying to make people understand, hey!! I'm everything you thought you were getting if I weren't being held back. With a different approach to how the defense is played we will inturn see a different payer. I find it disturbing for a coach to tell a player to get ot of my face, go sit down and shut up because he offers suggestions about how he as a player can help make the defense better.

Why is that?

He's convinced the public perception of him would be much different if he was alowed to do what they promised him in their pitch to get him to sign a contract here. Could be he views it as a broken promise. The guys' upset because he feels like he could be doing more to help the team. Maybe we need more Haynesworths' that show that type passion about winning and losing. The one thing he could have done differently was to keep his thoughts and comments in-house.

isn't this the same as the other hanyesworth thread?

SmootSmack · 12-26-2009, 06:29 PM

I wonder what Red Bar thinks of all this?

redsk1 · 12-26-2009, 06:39 PM

I mentioned the other day before all of this, that i want AH to be Mr. Redskin. If it's not going good he needs to be part of the solution. By mouthing off like this, it ain't helping. It's ok to feel this way but to talk to the media about it, i'm not sure it's the best thing in the world. It's like he's taking up for himself personally not having a great stat year. Who cares, us fans know what he brings to the table.

If Haynesworth does not play tomorrow night he will have missed both Dallas games. I don't want to think Andre Gurode has anything to do with it. Could he be systematically avoiding the Cowboys?

I could see Gurode avoiding AH moreso than the other way around. I think he'll play.

Jason Reid has reported that he is indeed going to play and start.

Pocket$ $traight · 12-26-2009, 09:58 PM

He probably should keep it in house but one thing I like about Al is he doesn't seem to back down from anyone. He truly seems concerned about his legacy as a player and he feels that he was misled by those who brought him here.

Good for him for calling out the coaches. Why hasn't there been a fistfight over Randal-Fail being allowed to catch punts? Why the hell is the stretch play still in our playbook?

As bad as the players have played, the coaching has been worse. Much worse.
