"I don't feel like leaving is going to help me win games somewhere else," Moss said. "When you're somewhere that you're comfortable with, and you feel like you can play, and your family can live, and you can raise your family and live comfortably and play a great game at a high level, why leave?" (Great quote from Armstrong in this article too that Moss will beast if he gets help at WR).

NOW IS THE WINTER OF OUR DISCONTENT
So, where are the ‘Skins, really?
This time last year the W-L record was eerily similar to the current season’s. There were questions at QB and all throughout the rest of the roster. There was a de facto GM with a less-than-stellar track record in both free agency and the draft and not a lot of picks to work with.
Is it (sorry, Yogi) deja vu all over again? Or is the light at the end of the tunnel something other than an oncoming freight train, for a change?
It seems 4 out of 5 dentists agree the ’Skins need to build an O-line (for a change) but after that, the flights of fantasy take off in a dozen directions at once including trades that will never happen and draft picks that will be long gone by the time the ’Skins turn comes around.
Inquiring minds want to know! (And so do I.) Can Washington return to respectability – or at least reach the otter suburbs of it – in 2011? And if so, HOW?
Do you need my address?
And you don’t think if we win this week and go 7-9 then a three game improvement isn’t good with a year full of so much shit? I’ll take a three game improvement any day. I don’t know how you can say the record was eerily similar? We have also lost 5 games by less than a touchdown. I’m interested to see what happens this offseason, but I’m confident to say for once that we are heading in the right direction.
Also can you please be a man of your word and send me my money?
DELUSIONS ROFL….if it weren’t for the bye, they’d be 4-6 in two weeks….they will then lose to Philly, the Titans, the Vikings, twice to the Giants and to Tampa….GUARANTEED

Who was the special teams player of the week?
by hambonejackson on Dec 31, 2010 10:42 AM EST up reply actions
Who has the worst FG% out of starting kickers in the league?
The answer to both questions is Graham Gano, and he could of been Special Team Player of the Week about 5 times this year and we’d be 9-6 right now.
by Parks Smith on Dec 31, 2010 11:20 AM EST up reply actions
maybe the Skins should use their 1st round pick on a kicker
Would that make you feel better?
by hambonejackson on Dec 31, 2010 11:27 AM EST up reply actions
Did I say that, mention that, say anything close to that?
I said keep the guy the rest of the year and let him compete in training camp. I’m sorry he’s the worst kicker in league and you can’t come to grips with it. Hopefully he will get A LOT better, b/c we need him.
by Parks Smith on Dec 31, 2010 11:47 AM EST up reply actions
Not the worst kicker.
Has performed the worst overall, though. Stick with Graham, and I Gano you’ll be glad you did ;)

let's see
the DID lose to Philly, the Vikings, soon-to-be-twice to the Giants and to Tampa…..
So you bet me $10,000 that they wouldn't beat one to them.
Do you want me to post the link, are you not a man of your word?
One difference - we have a lot more confidence
that the coaches know what the heck they’re doing. To me, the future looks brighter than it did last year.
Oh you should also add how much Jake Locker sucked against Nebraska.
I hope his Draft stock drops like a stone and we can get him the 2nd Round.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 10:49 AM EST reply actions
would be nice....
but if we are really going after a “franchise” QB I don’t think we take the chance on him falling an entire round
I don't know, he stunk the place up yesterday...
guy was terrible, he looked like a scrambling QB trying to throw.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 11:01 AM EST up reply actions
Do you really want Locker and grossman on the same team together?
Are you trying to turn Washington into Carolina? The Redskins should go get Newton.He has a rifle for an arm, he’s 6’6", and he can run for TDs.If you are going to draft like that either take the best QB or wait until the 6th round because thats about where Locker should be drafted at.
by hambonejackson on Dec 31, 2010 11:11 AM EST up reply actions
Don't think he can run this offense, footwork not good enough.
Also FYI Newton’s going in the Top 10.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 11:41 AM EST up reply actions
I've seen mock drafts where he is projected lower
Footwork can be improved since that is the problem with most QBs. Outside of him or Luck and I am not all that amped out about Luck I am not impressed with any of them.But I will take the big athletic guy with the cannon arm who can run. I think he fits in any system.
by hambonejackson on Dec 31, 2010 12:16 PM EST up reply actions
if thats all it took to be a successful qb....
the NFL would be full of them…..not saying that Cam does not have other qualities….but it’s not that simple
Newton passes for touchdowns
Newton runs for touchdowns and he even catches for touchdowns. The operative word is touchdowns. The other quality is wins, since that is all Auburn does now. he has yet to lose a game. I’ll take him

Bet you don't have an answer for my reply...
That’s what I thought…

I said that I know he has other qualities.....
none of us know how any of these qb’s talents are going to fare in the pro game and I have no reason to pick one over the other, I just haven’t done that kind of research. I do know that (rightly or wrong) he has been a media lightning rod in his only year as a starter, and that concerns me.
So did Antwan Randle-El in college
Newton runs for touchdowns and he even catches for touchdowns. The operative word is touchdowns.
Dude, there's just no way he goes outside of the Top 10
Also there are strong rumors that Andrew Luck will return to school this year, that would make Newton even more of a hot commodity. With teams like the 49ers, The Bills, and Cardinals looking for upgrades at QB, no way he slips. I’m actually very impressed by Luck, he’s got a great arm, very mobile (rumored to have a 4.5 40), and very accurate; it also seems as though he has his priorities straightened out, but is he worth the Redskins pulling a Mike Ditka for Ricky Williams? Hell mothafuckin’ No! Cam Newton is something else, I think he’s someone you adjust your system for, but I don’t know that he can fit this specific system, it being so rigid and all. He’s got great running ability, a cannon of an arm, he’s pretty accurate downfield, but what worries me is his short-to-intermediate passes, shoddy footwork (something integral to this system), and only one year’s worth of tape.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 12:56 PM EST up reply actions
I cannot predict where he will go in the draft
His footwork is not shoddy and he throws every kind of pass. He is not ready to step in like Luck is, but I don’t see a problem with him.

By the time the Senior Bowl and Combine are over,
Cam Newton will be so over-hyped, he will probably go Top 5.

+1
I know dude, it’s crazy the Media refuses to get off of his nuts.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 4:32 PM EST up reply actions
He can't play in the Senior Bowl.
And how can he go to the combine, shouldn’t he be studying and getting his education? The combine is on a school night! (wink, wink)
He can't study...
Don’t you remember he threw his laptop out the window? He’ll be listening to some music on his 200$ Headphones.
by TerpsAllTheWay on Dec 31, 2010 4:39 PM EST up reply actions
I was afraid someone would take it that way
He can’t play in the Senior Bowl.
I realize he’s a Junior. I just think his measurables are going to blow everyone away and by February-March, Newton will become the 2nd Coming of John Elway/Michael Vick (especially if Luck stays put).
I Am Jack's Raging Bile Duct
Hey the more hyper he gets the more it helps us right?

NFL Draft Countdown disagrees...
http://www.draftcountdown.com/sub/Mock-Draft-B.php
they have him going #18 to the Dolphins, the 4th QB off the board behind Luck, Mallett, and Locker. just look at the history of choosing a QB with unlimited potential, great athleticism, but questionable intangibles with high picks. Leaf was a complete failure, Young looks like a complete failure, Russell was a complete failure. you could point to Michael Vick as a success, maybe, but nobody was questioning his intangibles coming out of college. his problems all started after he reached the NFL.
so I think maybe 5 years ago, Newton would have been in the running for a top 5 pick. but now, I think GMs are a bit more wary of this type of player.
That mock was updated almost a month ago
and will probably change radically over the next 4 months.
I Am Jack's Raging Bile Duct
Didn't know it was that outdated. Damn.
And they have us taking Justin Blackmon wow… I doubt we take him.

Dwyane Harris
If anyone is a ECU fan in here could you confirm that that’s Dwayne Harris in the back left of Chris Johnsons picture. I think it is.
"Were not here for a long time... were here for a good time."
Vince Oghobaase on the practice squad. He has a history of a foot injury, but the guy ran a 5.43 40yd at the Combine.
he weighs over 300 lbs. He could be the LOLB or the RDE. http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=56563&draftyear=2010&genpos=DT Since he could not crack the Dolphins 53-man roster, the practice squad is the right place for him next Spring.
6'5, 305...and not quick?
do we really want him on the outside? I am not questioning your evalustion….just learning some things on the fly with the new defense. If he bulks up (funny to say about a man who is 300+) Is he still to tall to play in the middle? I would think that a low center of gravity is paramount for a NT, but we need guys in the middle more than on the outside…..we all hate “stop-gaps” but we need them, and the ones we tried on the DL this didn’t fare so well.
I guessed as much. My thinking was off by a second in the 40 yd when I mentioned OLB. A lot of college DT are close to 5 flat.
Most college OTs that are pro prospects are faster than that including Loadholt, but the 10 yd speed is more critical. (1.83 10 yd.)

Vince Oghobaase
I go to Duke, and so I watched him play for 3 years before he graduated. After his junior year, he was a projected 2nd rounder and surprisingly stayed. He had a very good half to 2/3 of a season before he was cheap-shotted out by some UNC OLs and missed the rest of the season, leading to all of the injury issues and concerns. He got a lot of different issues and didn’t recover until well after the draft. He’s someone who can be a very strong 3-4 DE in the system if he’s healthy – he just was a dominant player against ACC competition.
