Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

3-4 would be a great move, seems to be the defense of the future around the league right now. WE GOTTA SWITCH UP SOMETHING. Our defense was bad in the beginning of the season, but now we can't even stop the run, that spells bad bad news.

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

in a 3-4 you need a nose tackle, and that's really not griffin's thing. he's a pass rushing DT. and you can't move from a base 4-3 to a base 3-4 in season, since it requires a lot of adjustments and learning. i know GW has a few 3-4 packages or whatever, but 1 down vs full time are a bit different. not to mention only 1 LB is playing okay right now, so i'm not sure if throwing another one out there is going to cause a huge change.

Why not put Andre Carter at weak side LB.

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

Griffin looked pretty good on sunday, anyone else agree? He was especially good on the goalline, you don't think he could play nose tackle? He does get hurt too much for us to rely on him though.

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

he might be able to play nose tackle, but he's not really a space eater as much as a penetrator, so it wouldn't be playing to his strengths. true quality nose tackles are very hard to find (casey hampton, ngata in last year's draft, etc).

I guess i can't be sure until he tries it though.

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

Leave Taylor at Safety. Come on. He's still young. Hes not an LB. He can be one of the greats at safety given his skills, if he can learn to read the Offenses.

(Is this is joke thread? Kinda has an extremeskins feel... )

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

I think they should play a 5-2-4.

Wynn Griffin Golston Salavea Daniels.

Washington Marshall

Wright Springs

Taylor Vincent

This will tighten up the run and increase pass rush. Holdman is invisible anyways.

In Nickel replace Marshall with Rogers.

In Dime replace Golston with Ade, rush four.

In Quarter use a three man rush of Carter, Griffin, and Daniels and bring in Arch as the third safety to play three deep:

Carter Griffin Daniels
Washington

Wright Jimoh Rogers Springs


Arch Taylor Vincent


This would be against 5 wide sets.

Why the hell would AA work better next to Vincent than Taylor??!

I tell ya, the season goes down the drain and people start coming up with some bizarre-ass ideas.

Same thing with Duckett. And Campbell. And meanwhile turds like AA are out there the whole time.

It's like this organization isn't willing to try new people, and at the same time every offseason is spent buying a new team.

Have you watched the redskins in the Dan Snyder era?????????

What happened when you put big time linebackers next to each other
(Trotter, Arrington, Armstead)?

Its called chemistry

Most redskin fans understand this.
Do you need me to explain anything else to you?

How the hell is putting AA with Vincent remotely like "Trotter, Arrington, Armstead)? You think AA and Vincent is some magic recipe for chemistry at safety?

I would appreciate it if you could tell me what you're smoking, and where I can get some for a good price, because it appears to be some good stuff.

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

can someone explain to me how putting players out of their normal position, that somehow, magically they are going to know how to play that position. and then play it well enough to improve our defense? come on, people. lets get real around here

Re: Move Taylor To Linebacker

Any suggestion is reasonable when you consider the current performance of our defense, we just showed that we couldnt stop the worst offense in the NFC, and we knew that they were gonna run the ball, we knew it!!!!

Well, Campbell is finally in there, Duckett is actually getting on the field, and AA has been benched for a couple of games now.

Progress is slow around Redskins Park I guess.
