Rogers: "It's not [about] our hands. I'm going to my man. So by the time I get there in order to get my man under control, I look back, 'Oh, the ball here.' It ain't like I'm running [and] looking at the quarterback, it's not like that. If I'm doing that, I should catch all of them."

Watching the ball and not the man?

What a novel concept.

J-Dawg.

It sounds like he's making a lot of excuses. Every cornerback has these same problems, but they actually catch the ball.

At least everyone seems to have a sense of humor about it.

Rogers has never been shy about making excuses. I still remember when he got burned by Joey Galloway (who was I think 35 at the time) and he was like, man, you got me on an island with the fastest guy in the league man!! It ain't my fault!

Just like JC, its time for Rogers to step up- though I'll pleased with his progress coming off injury.

Humorous article - especially Smooty. I'm pretty sure Smoot dropped an easy INT in preseason so he can't run his mouth too far.

T.O.Killa · 09-09-2008, 10:28 PM

Hey, I always figured if they had good hands they would be recievers.

GMScud · 09-09-2008, 11:26 PM

Rogers wouldn't be any worse off than he is now if you replaced his hands with shoe horns. His excuse is totally lame. "I'm looking at my man, not the QB..." Okaaaay, well you should have started working a little more on your ball skills before your stone hands problem became an epidemic. If he could catch he'd have a great chance at pro-bowl status.

hooskins · 09-09-2008, 11:38 PM

Atleast Rogers can stick to his man. Screw the interceptions, if you can't cover they STFU(yes you Smoot).

Rogers definately has no hands, but is Smoot really in a good position to call him out?

That Guy · 09-10-2008, 05:00 AM

i remember watching smoot try to handle punts in training camp a few years back... he dropped about half of them, so it's not like he has the world's best hands either.

Daseal · 09-10-2008, 07:06 AM

Rogers gets in position for interceptions which is more than I can say for much of our secondary. Id rather have picks too, but as far as Im concerned if he's batting down balls on the regular he's doing a good job.

mredskins · 09-10-2008, 08:27 AM

this is a great short article on who can catch the ball better (Smoot or Rogers). The inserted you tube video had me in tears.

Of greater importance in the INT he dropped in the end zone against the Giants last week.

They do have a common bond........neither one can catch or cover very well. Every passing play it seemed like Smoot was a good 4-5 steps away from the receiver. Actually almost every pass seemed to go in his direction.
