Collinsworth: Leaning toward Beck | Washington Examiner
"[Players] that don't take the sacks, that don't fall off their back foot and throw interceptions, that know where the check down is, that sort of believe there's nothing wrong sometimes with a punt...I just think that ultimately John Beck has that sort of discipline -- or he did have that sort of discipline in college [at BYU] -- and now with Mike and Kyle Shanahan, I think he's the right fit."

Depth is critical along the Redskins’ defensive line - The Washington Post
"We feel good about the group we have," said defensive coordinator Jim Haslett. "It’s a shame that we lose a guy like Jarvis. but these guys will step up and play well."

HomerMcFanboy " ryan kerrigan becoming ‘complete package’
"That dude is getting so much better so quickly," said linebacker Lorenzo Alexander. "It’s not even funny. His learning curve has been awesome. He’s already making plays in the passing game, in the run game and putting pressure on the quarterback. He’s definitely becoming the complete package."

Really Kevin?

You lead off the Slop with 4 out of the first 5 stories on MK directly, and the 5th is about him indirectly?? The guy has been a complete non-factor for years and it’s been awhile since I have seen him on anybody’s list to make the cut.
Not that it shouldn’t be reported at all, it should. He was a second round pick and a hot topic of conversation (contention?) around here for sure, but leading off with 4 MK stories while burying the Bowen and Kerrigan stories after the jump just doesn’t seem right to me. I think we should give the guys who are actually on the team and out there working hard everyday top billing.
This is not a joke, this is Redskins football!!!! (and I can almost say that with a straight face)

Not sure what you mean

the 5th is about the GrossBeck QB competition.

with all due respect, no, that's not correct,

1st 2 about Kelley, 3rd about spending high picks on WR and then 2 more on Kelly.

c'mon

Just give the guy a chance

just bustin his balls a little.....

I am sure Kevin knows that I think he does a great job here and is much appreciated, and if not…..
Kev., I think you do great job here, and it is much appreciated.

Well he busted his ass this offseason

so perhaps that’s the real cause of his being cut…just another injury. The foot thing was a smokescreen :-)

wildcat

I think we should run the wild cat with beck as a wr and Grossman the running back. Play starts, Grossman gets the ball runs to the right, pitches it to beck, beck throws a deep bomb to moss, touchdown. Its a fool proof plan that needs to happen

theres no such thing as stupid questions...only stupid people

by hailyeah on Aug 31, 2011 9:33 AM EDT via mobile reply actions

yup, thats a great play.....

if you are playing in your back yard, no CB is going to bite on that trickeration with two QB’s on the field.

by MagicHat on Aug 31, 2011 9:49 AM EDT up reply actions

I, on the other hand, know the geatest trick play ever....

although it is in bad form, and probably very poor sportsmanship. I have never seen it, and have wondered if there is a rule against it. If executed properly it seems to me to be impossible to stop. (again if it is legal)

by MagicHat on Aug 31, 2011 9:52 AM EDT up reply actions

i was kidding

No defense would everrrrrr let that happen, but it would be cool….

I really liked Kelly

and I try to like Lavar and Dukes….however Dukes is a complete ass to every caller, and they just bash anything and everything the redskins do. Its the media that puts this team in such a bad spotlight…we should have no spotlight right now.

by jbh1190 on Aug 31, 2011 9:45 AM EDT reply actions

I generally like Dukes

he can be pretty funny; however, he really has gotten overly negative recently. Obnoxiously negative. Lavar is just a moron…

by mbedner on Aug 31, 2011 9:51 AM EDT up reply actions

I can't stand the junkies

they are 100% awful….however I do like Mike Wise.

by jbh1190 on Aug 31, 2011 9:57 AM EDT up reply actions

I like the Junkies in the morning...

I cannot stand how obnoxious Chad Dukes is though (LaVar is fine), so I don’t listen to 106.7 after work.

About MK

i watched Kelly play college and he is about a 4.5 guy before his knee injury. I think with Kelly, he has been going thrugh a series of compensation injuries. Maybe his knee never healed right. I know this is what happened with Colt Brennan. He was fine until he suffered a serious ankle injury. After that, he went through injury after injury. This happens to players and its unfortunate. It happened to Gilbert Arenas.
