Which means we really only have to worry about the right tackle spot.

Of course, that's true whether Polumbus plays or not ...

Fine as in playing Sunday or just not a season-ending injury?

Yessssssss!

I don't think they've officially said whether Monty is starting or not. Shanny's supposed to give an official update tomorrow. But the injury was never thought to be season ending from what I understand.

But again after all these other guys were suspended including your own teammate why the hell not just do what the league asks and clear it? I think it is because he knows the league cannot disclose specifics on which type of amphetamine it is. So why not tweet it was socially acceptable Adderall? These guys certainly arent going to tweet " damn i knew i shouldnt have been snorting rails of cocaine last month ".
Edit: going forward after all these suspensions any player who is suspended for adderall should also be suspended for being lazy and stupid. If indeed that is the amphetamine they were taking there is absolutely no excuse for not knowing the protocol and i would have to chalk it up as a strait up lie to cover up what they were really taking.

If Monty and Polumbus both start, i'll be immensely happy. Our oline as a whole is pretty horrible at pass protection, but we've gotten by because of RGIIIs scrambling, Kyle's playcalling, and the lines working as a unit. If the unit got mixed up, we could be in a world of trouble.

I don't think it matters that much who's in and who's at this point. The team is playing with a lot of confidence. The injuries, if anything, have had a galvanizing effect.

Doesnt Polumbus have to sit out a game if they called it a concussion? Than after the game pass the baseline test to come back the following week?

I think Compton is going to impress, he's had 14 weeks of learning and watching. It's showtime and time to get dirty.

RG3 didnt sit out a game after his diagnosed concussion, so why should Polumbus?

Did they officially call Griffs a concussion?

RG was deemed "shaken up" or "mild concussion". I think there's a difference.

Well, MS called it a "mild concussion" and, as I recall, got sh** from the league for doing so. He was officially diagnosed with a concussion and was subsequently cleared to play.

Robert Griffin III has no lingering symptoms from concussion - Hogs Haven

EDIT: From another article:

Griffin went home and not to the hospital Sunday afternoon, so that’s the good news. But he couldn’t tell an independent neurologist on the sideline what the score was or what quarter it was, and the team knew within minutes that he was not coming back to the game.

Now, how this became translated from the field to the press box as “shaken up, return questionable” is beyond unacceptable in this day and age of the concussion-obsessed NFL, which is being sued for millions in class-action lawsuits filed by former players who claim the league didn’t protect them enough.

Just heard the Jordan Black interview on 980, he sounds pissed AND it seems like the Redskins are getting a lot of focus. Odd.
