He may not play in every down but what Al brings to the table can be beastly as a part time DE on the right side or attack the offensive line of the opponent at there weakest man. However, if we trade him we should get at least a 3rd rounder for him.

I think this draft the Skins will go defensive line. They need a blue chip nose tackle.

After reading this, the answer is no way!

Haynesworth was at Redskins Park Monday for the first time since his Dec. 7 suspension for conduct detrimental to the team. Shanahan did not seek him out for a meeting.

"The last time he was in the building, he would not meet with me, Shanahan said. So it is what it is. ... I really didn't think much about it, to be honest with you. I knew he had to come in for a physical. I thought he may stop by; wasn't really sure. He did not."

Nah, Barnes can hit with the best of them, he stopped Jacobs head-on once with a big hit and made that TD-saving ankle tackle on him another play.

Not sure what happened with that hit on Eli...bad angle I guess.

VERY impressive...I want him starting at FS next season. He can definitely handle it.





Another game, another loss, same goats...Gano and Rabach.

As for Rex...he scares me but we knew that's his game...makes huge plays...then make twice as many embarrassing blunders.

I'd love to keep him as McNabb's backup.

Yes, I still think McNabb will be and should be back as a starter with an upgraded line.

Keep him on a leash, but as we're bragging about 3 receivers with 800+ yards...remember most of them were from Donovan. He made a lot of mistakes but make him step up and learn the system. He signed the extension, make him work for his money...no more simple outs.

Give him the chance to prove himself in year #2. If he can't by mid-season, Rex will come in and save the day...THEN part ways with #5. For what we gave up for him and the potential he still has...we can't give up on him after a baker's dozen of games.

McNabb was not the whole problem on offense this season.

Yep, a few of us have been calling for him since he impressed in preseason. Not sure what took so long, maybe he's not a good practice player?

Between Moss/Armstrong/Cooley, I think they are all dependable and we've got wildcards in Austin/Kelly/Banks. If we went into next year with the same wr corps I wouldn't be disappointed, esp. with have bigger positions of need across the board.

Yeah, before the season I wasn't really worried about re-signing Moss. When he started talking about they told him they'd use him in more ways and Andre Johnson told him that's something that Kyle will do and it'll open him up a lot I got a little excited. His performance this year definitely showed he's still got some game in him, did you see him actually TRYING to gain extra yards yesterday? First time in awhile.

Yeah, I saw and heard Shanahan and I agree. I don't think he will return. Do you think Haynesworth is pissed because he will have to go out and work hard again. If Jeff Fisher keeps his job, look for Big Al to return from once he came.

True that!

I don't think that now after seeing his press conference. A big NO for Big Al.

I posted before I saw the press conference. No way Big Al comes back.

Just one of my silly comments. No, I don't think Alvin will be back with us. There really is some bad blood between those two.
