Around SBN: Randy Moss A Raven?

NFC East Weekly Recap: Second Arrest Goes To...

Cowboys FB Dean Anderson arrested for traffic warrants; guns seized [espn]
(Chad Rinehart with the first NFC East one)

Cowboys consider putting franchise tag on Miles Austin [BTB]

Cutting Nick Folk was a stupid mistake [espn]

Eagles hire Dick Jauron as secondary coach [espn]
(How the mighty have fallen. He no doubt has great expertise though.)

Eagles sign Durant Brooks (and they seem happy about it) [BGN]
(This probably means he'll be a Pro-Bowler next year)

Eli Manning's mentor/QB coach, Palmer, leaves for UFL [Giant Blog]

Redskins after the jump...

Star-divide

Portis expects to play next year [Bog]
He still hasn't been cleared by doctors yet. I have some issue with his comments about only trying to have "fun." Cooley and Moss are able to have fun, but they don't publicly call out single players. Cooley was on the radio yesterday with Elliot and he said it's not hard to cover the Super Bowl this week since the Redskins never had a chance of being in it. Clinton, there is a way to be critical. You were not even practicing or playing with the team for half the season, so for you to go out and blast a team captain that was taking shot after shot is not "fun." Come on...see the line and learn to walk it.

Keenan McCardell has a SB ring with the 1991 Redskins [Skins Blog]

McCardell was selected in the 12th round of the 1991 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins, but he never took the field in a Redskins' uniform. He, however, got a Super Bowl ring with the Redskins while being on injured reserve. McCardell was cut after the 1991 season.

We should bring in Folk and see where it goes.

It would be great to beat them on Folks leg for the next few years. What a ironic kick to the sack that would be.

Shanny should jump on this now before someone else does.

Why doesn't every team have a good punter/kicker...?

There are only 32 pro football teams in the world paying top notch $ for kickers and punters. Witrh 100+ college football programs all with kickers, it shocks me that every team doesn’t have a guy who can consistently hit from 50 yards especially when it is such a huge part of the game.

It seems like our kickers here in DC have been horrible since Chip Lohmiller almost 20 years ago.

In terms of folk, give him a tryout I guess….i just think its time we made it a priority to have a solid kicking game.

we brought in shuisham and he was a former cowboy kicker.

Perhaps being consistent from 50 yards

is just a pretty damn tough thing to do. Your argument would apply to punters kicking 60 yarders, QBs being able to hit a receiver in the hands from 60 yards and running backs running a 4.3. Just doesn’t work.

Its just a ball to hit with accuracy and distance with no one running up to crush

your entire body. Oh wait, that’s golf.

Those were great commercials

“WOO WOO … the PAIN TRAIN is comin’!”

I also liked the commercial that combined golf and football … some golfer guy in tweed and a hat lines up for a put and gets blitzed. The coda of the commercial showed the ball going in the hole and the golfer going YAHHHH! in the face of a couple of the football guys. Great stuff!

Gano is a solid kicker.

For those that missed it.

But there's a free agent out there

The Redskins must sign every available free agent, you know.

touchee

Just think….if the Bengals had just accepted Snyder’s trade offer of two 1st round draft picks for OchoCinco…we could have him do the kicking too!
