I can't date a woman who is that blurry. I prefer my women to be in focus.

Ahh, in addition to photos, do you also date rubber doll women?

Have you ever seen the funny Robin Williams segment from Deconstructing Harry? Daddy's out of focus!

They got married this spring. That's why he missed some of the player led workouts.

Not sure if this is the right forum but ...

It's kind of comical how little the sports world thinks of the Redskins -- we finished with the same record as the Cowboys last season and beat the eventual champs (packers) but for some reason we are 100/1 favorites to win the SB but the cowturds are 18/1. God I hope we surprise some people this year.

I think people had way too high expectations of Nield. 7th round pick and we were talking about him fighting for possibly a starting spot.

That said, I am disappointed in Capers and Cook. Not sure either makes the team. So those are two young OL that potentially flopped for us.

I'll admit I had high hopes for Nield, but that was before we brought in Bowen and before we all realized that Jarvis Jenkins is a freaking animal. Looks like Neild will end up on the practice squad, so at least we can work on developing him into solid, young depth.

Though our "line gurus" cut two guys last year who will at least be in the playing time discussion for other teams this year. At least we have our priorities right.

Not sure how reliable or UTD ComcastSports depth chart is, but it has Cook listed #2 behind Will Montgomery at the C position. That could have changed of course.

Neild is practice squad at best, and that's not a knock on him, just no room for him.

So I didn't catch much of the first preseason game, how did Jenkins look? I know he's had a really good camp, but what's the chances of him starting opening day?

Zero...unless Carriker or Bowen get hurt...but he'll play. Give him some time and he could be starting by year's end. He needs to learn the various techniques that he's never had to use before because of his natural abilities but it is only a matter of time. He is going to be a good starting quality lineman.

Nice, thanks. Yeah, I've been seeing the coaches saying he's a better pass rusher than the tape indicates. I would love to see our Dline jell and become dominant.

What I saw in the Pitt game is that he needs to develop more NFL-ready pass rushing moves. And he seemed good but hardly dominant against the run. He's a work in progress with a bright future but not a day 1 starter.
