Re: Larry Johnson Cut
If he beats out Thomas as KR--which I think he can and will--then what is the point of keeping Thomas? He is clearly behind Williams and Armstrong so as a 5th receiver he needs to be stellar on special teams. I could have swore he fumbled a kickoff last week (he recovered it back) and he made a bad decision taking a kick out deep out of the endzone. I would not be surprised at all to see Thomas cut in a few weeks if he does not show something over the next few games.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
In the movie Semi Pro, a player was traded for a washing machine, maybe AH could go for some sort of ....idk. If the NFL was like baseball and had AAA I probably would have liked to seen Snyder buy a team in Iraq and ship him out until "we call you up" thats not wrong to say is it?

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
LaVar's WashPost blog "hard hits" is taking some hard hits from the Redskin faithful over his comments about the team cutting LJ, among other things. The readers reaction I don't find surprising.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
I think before people go nuts on the LJ bashing, you may want to stop and realize that our offensive line is not doing the best run blocking. LJ played well in Cincy, which has a good power run game. Right now the team seems to be a pass first offense, something that might be a bit hard to get used to given our history of being run-first.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
Portis didn't run a lot either. Personally, I don't understand why we got LJ in the first place, it's just that people need to realize that there's an issue with the run block in general, and not just one player.
Now, if Portis runs for 100+ yds against a good team, then we're all good. Until then, there is a problem with the running game. Once again, fans focused on just one player and missing the big picture.

I have no problem with the team cutting him if that's what they decided to do. He had limited opportunities, didn't contribute on teams, and had to deal with whatever deficiencies are those of the O/L that prohibits the running game from producing thus far, regardless of who the runner is. RB's need reps to be effective in any offense, he didn't and obviously wasn't going to get that here.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
Don't forget that LJ wasn't much of a pass blocker, didn't seem to even try much.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
It says in our paper here that Johnson could be re-signed after Sunday's game, kind of similar to what Pittsburgh did with Byron Leftwich.
They apparently need the roster spot temporarily.

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
Shanahan, in his presser said that Johnson could be brought back if someone went down

Re: Larry Johnson Cut
Maybe so. But why Simpson? To scout the Colts?
