Shanny said this with some laughter but still interesting:
“I’m the one who told Kyle not to come (two years ago). This is going to be a work in progress.”

Don't forget
the use of the word ‘rebuilding’. Was reluctant to use it. Asked for reporters to define it but never fully denied that they were rebuilding the team. Even admitting that he told Kyle that it would be a rebuild.

I just don't understand the stigma around this word
Anyone who has watched the Redskins over the past decade KNOWS this team needed a rebuild. I suppose it comes down to marketing: they think game attendance or team interest will go down drastically if they don’t trot out a “seemingly competitive” team.
Well news flash: fans are going to lose interest if year after year, you trot out old washed up free agents in the name of jersey sales.
This team is going in the right direction, for the first time in a long time (hell, first time since I’ve been a fan). We all just need to take a deep breath and let the rebuild happen.
Also mentioned
that Beck took too long to get rid of the ball against Buffalo, but might have been too quick to get rid of it against San Fran.

he was sacked 6 times in under 2.5 seconds according to ESPN stat gurus.
if that is true, that comment is bunk

but it is not surprising that the QB acts frantically if he is not sure how long he will remain upright. campbell had the same problem..and he is a lot bigger!

Niles Paul out for a couple of weeks with turf toe
WILL NOT AFFECT THE OUTCOME OF THE GAME
Leonard Hankerson earned another start Sunday vs. Miami
WELL, THAT IS GOOD NEWS
Finally admitted we’re rebuilding, kind of…
WE KNOW/ WE HOPE
Tashard Choice should begin practicing this week
WHO CARES
Jammal Brown’s status is still uncertain after a groin injury
REALLY WISH WE HAD A BETTER OPTION TO REPLACE HIM
Tashard Choice
WHO CARES
Once again this is the missed point of too many when who is being added by the Redskins, Is choice an option for this offense, maybe but the key is if he is an option at the age of 26 he has time to be a part of the rebuilding.

Disagree with your disagreement...
I think there is a strong chance that Choice is here next year. I wouldn’t count on Hightower coming back at full strength. Helu, Torain and Royster could possibly be the guys next year, but Choice has the big play ability that Royster just doesn’t have. Unless Hillis makes his way to DC, I would seriously expect Choice to return
Whomever replaces Jamaal Brown is a better option than he is

how do you figure??

Locklear has been less than impressive.
In the name of youth, I wouldn’t be at all opposed to see how Willie Smith reacts when thrown into the fire. We need to know whether we need to draft a tackle in the 1st/2nd or 3rd/4th next April.
i don't mind putting in Smith, but Locklear played better than Brown did on Sunday
Locklear is a better RT that seems to be a fact

Sucks that Paul gets injured just when the young guys start getting opportunities for more play time.
"If a man speaks and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong???"
Yea and just when I was hoping he'd take over return duties...

Learn a lesson from the QB controversy and avoid a controversy by benching/cutting Banks.

um the mob would come if he DIDN'T cut Banks
I’m pretty surprised such an event hasn’t occurred already.

Ah, now I see.
At first, I thought you were saying there’d be a mob if he WAS cut.
We’re on the same page now.

they need to bring him at wr
if he gets hurt then oh well.. we can cut him. if he makes some big plays we can trade him for a good draft pick… just letting return kicks on a team that is going for a top draft pick is kinda pointless
I love it
When you talk like that. Almost makes me forget I’m on a football message board.

I was a huge Banks fan
He’s not the same guy. The breath taking speed and change of direction isn’t there. He doesn’t pound the ground when he gets tackled anymore. There’s no reason to keep him around, honestly. If he does elsewhere and does great good for him, but he looks like he’s given up, and just doesn’t have ‘it’. This offense can’t keep starting short of the 20.
I'm telling you man, he was an optical illusion...

I was at games with him last year
The guy was a Gazelle amongst Wildebeasts. This year he doesn’t look as fast. I know mph wise he probably wan’t any faster, but honestly that guy had ‘it’ – maybe ‘it’ was cut out of him?
Has he been doing anything?
Haven’t been able to follow you guys much recently.
Go Suns, Packers, Jays, and Huskers!

He was a great blocker in the run game
Otherwise not much. He was also a little more active in the pass game as of late. He’ll definitely be missed on special team, however. Paul delivered some great hits.
That's pretty much what I expected from him.
It’s a shame he didn’t get moved to safety at Nebraska.

Mike Shanahan was hired to fix the complete and utter mess that LiL Danny and Uncle Vinny Cerrato made of this franchise over the last decade. The amount of over-priced, over-hyped players on the Skins roster when Shanahan took over was a joke. The team needed to be stripped of that **** and start over by adding young players through the draft and adding quality veteran players through FA. To this point Shanahan has done that, he just chose to address the defense first.
As a Skins fan games like yesterday, and againt Buffalo, are hard to take, but I expected it. Especially when injuries started to mount. The Skins offense is a joke, but at least young/promising players like Helu, Hankerson, Austin, and Paul are getting valuable experience. Now if the offense isn’t adequately addressed in this coming draft and offseason I will be very worried, but with 11 million in cap space at this time, and a good amount of draft picks for the 2012 draft, I have hope.
And enough of Skins fans bitching and moaning on the radio and message boards. Especially the "Hail-tards" that have magically disappeared from this site. This franchise is in the 2nd year of a desperately needed rebuild. Suck it up, stop the whining, and support the young guys playing their hearts out to get better. Its what real Skins fans do.

Making fun of everyone that wants to fire Shanny because he hasn’t delivered 3 Lombardis in 2 years.

I hate that stupid graphic they use during every game
where they list every coach that we’ve had under The Danny. I HATE IT.
…lol well come on…he hasnt developed an offense in two years, two drafts, two free agencies, boat loads of cap space.
in fact, he has added one legit starter who has underperformed (williams) and gave away one (campbell).
and before you go there…williams hasnt been any better at LT than JC was at QB
of course, I hope that changes and expect it to. but i feel an honest expectation was 3-4 legitimate starters over that time period with those resources. heck, he could have done that with using only the two top 10 picks and two top 40 picks.
so yeah…it’s fair to say he underperformed

They’d try out some damned quarterbacks.

Actually JaMarcus Russell, Jake Delhomme, JT O'Sullivan, Eric Crouch, Marc Bulger, and Marcus Vick are trying out tomorrow
Whoever throws a vortex the farthest gets the starting job Sunday. They each get five attempts.

I hope they pick up Marcus Vick
if for no reason other than I could say that even I’ve tackled our QB.
Eric Crouch is healthy enough to play again?
He went on IR after his first UFL game this year.

This also comes from Jason La Canfora
which means we are actually trying out long snappers.
Why do people listen to La Canfora?
Wh does LaCanfora work for NFLN? I think he just sits in his basement and retweets what Adam Schefter says.

I'm not his biggest fan,
and this is my favourite theory as to what he does 90% of the time (I had the same thought a while back). But credit where credit is due, he named every one of our free agent targets before free agency started this offseason.
Follow me on Twitter: @UkRedskin1 feel free to give suggestions on what you'd like to see broken down each week.
Sorry, not every one.
But he named a fair few. Nobody even thought about Cofield until LaCanfora mentioned him. We made offers to both Yanda and Holmes as he claimed we would, and we were rumored to have sniffed around the Jenkins brothers.

Is a dweeb who got lucky landing that Redskins Insider job, then kissed enough ass along the way to get a job with the NFL network. Frankly, think he shoulda lost his credentials after that Haynesworth crap. Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if THAT’S what got him this job.
He’s the only guy in the world that actually makes Snyder sympathetic to me.
