I know. I really liked my "R" scripted helmet avatar but others started using it also and I had trouble quickly finding my posts. So I started using this avatar. It helps but I get bored easily and would like to see some new avatars (hint) but I'm guessing the avatar man is busy or could use some more cool photo's to make new avatar's with.

I get the feeling Holmgren is still in the mind set of win now and McCoy didn't give him that. I feel the same way with the Vikes. Although I think the Vikes are a little more happy with Ponder then the browns are with McCoy. But I could see both teams taking RGIII for their future. RGIII is definitely better then either teams current QB's. ... and for giggles I'd say the same for the Bucks.

When some of us talk of other QB's in this yrs draft the RGIII fans ask "how can you pass up on such a talent, a future franchise QB?" but when other teams are mentioned they come up with every excuse as to why those other teams won't want him. If he is such a catch, such a great player, could solidify a teams QB position for years then why wouldn't the Browns, Vikes and even the Bucks want him? Their QB's have not stepped up to be exceptional yet and who knows if they ever will.
I think the Browns want RG3, but their unwillingness to deal their two draft picks makes me think they may not necessarily want him THAT much.

They will stick w him but RG3 is just the better player and if they can move up 2 spots they will imo.

In regards to that and I am not a offender but this thread at times has moved lighting fast so if you step away for a few hours then come back you probaly are not going to read back some 5 or 6 pages.

I actually preferred when folks did it because I may have missed it several pages back.

Here is a good rule of thumb if you see the same link and you all ready have read it just move to the next post and don't click the link. OMG look at that it works every time.

It's usually a handful of posts, not a handful of pages. I mean it is what it is, but it's pretty apparent a lot of people post before reading anything

I agree if it was posted two post ago on the same page it is annoying.

I think we are all a little edge on here right now. This is probably the biggest off season in the Warpath's history.

And as Redskins fans we are bracing for the worst which would be no PM or RGIII and another year of Rex/Beck.

Dear lord help us if that is the case. I think a little part of me will die inside if we go into another season with an average retread qb at the helm, like Kyle Orton or somebody.

I have felt all along that it's entirely likely that REX is the starting QB week 1, with a drafted QB(not RGIII) sitting behind him for half the season. The percentage is as strong for that to occur as getting Peyton or RGIII and having them start.

You know, I just dont see how Mike Shanahan could do this and be looked at as performing his duties as HC. You know that your QB situation is TERRIBLE, you MUST address it this year. There is no excuse for him if Rex is the QB day one, and I think he is way too smart to play russian roulette like that. We will have a new QB come April.
