2007 in Review/2008 Preview

[Monkeydad]

Best on field moment: London Fletcher's pick-6 against Arizona. That was the loudest I cheered all year. Jumped off the couch for that one.

Worst on field moment: Getting stopped on the goal line against the Giants in Week 3. That also killed the throwbacks I liked.

Offensive MVP: Clinton Portis. Stat-wise, another huge year but even beyond that, his blocking, leadership on and off the field, especially after Sean's death. He SHOULD be the NFL MVP, he's truly the most valuable player. Without him on the field, the team can't succeed. Ask the QBs laying on the field if the team needs him for more than scoring TDs.

Defensive MVP: London Fletcher. He stepped right in and took over the defense as a vocal leader. Watching, you'd think he was a Redskin all his career.

Offensive Player I'm looking forward to watching in '08: Jason Campbell. He'll continue to improve.

Defensive Player I'm looking forward to watching in '08: Laron Landry. He's making big plays and also rookie mistakes. His rookie year looked so similar to Sean Taylor's. Hopefully he can step in and fill the void.

Offensive Player who surprised you (good & bad):
Good: Antwaan Randel El. He was our #1 WR most of the year.
Bad: Ladell Betts. Horrible on the goal line, in blocking and still fumbles. He went from being some other team's possible starter to someone I don't want to see on the field in any meaningful situation.

Defensive Player who surprised you (good & bad):
Good: Rocky McIntosh. I knew he would be good, but not THIS good THIS soon.
Bad: Sean Springs. He had his great plays, but got burned more often. He's declining.


Non-Redskins player I'd like to see in a Redskins Uni next year: A new kicker.

Redskins player I'd like to see in another uni next year: Brandon Lloyd.
