New year, same role for Archuleta

i dont wish AA any ill will, while he did get paid he also got alil bit of the shaft by us:

- leading the team in tackles last season before he was benched (or atleast the first 5 games or so)

- redskins organization count of tackles had him at less then the NFL count which is kinda unheard of

i did appreciate how he handled the situation in not mopping around the locker room even though he was probaly the guy who leaked all that crap last season to the media . .

go skins!

Leading in tackles really isn't very impressive. Anytime a safety has a lot of tackles it probably means there are big problems with the front 7, which there were for us last year.

That's a big "even though" with your last statement there. Not sure how you can say on one hand that you appreciated the way he didn't mope around the locker room, and then on the other acknowledge he was the leak that undoubtedly lead to some locker room animosity with his teammates.

The fact that he's on the bench in Chicago only proves the point that he is not starting material anymore and it validates our coaches decision to bench him last year.

yeah as i was writing that i was like "damn thats a big 'even thoo'" but he did lead us in tackles until he was benched and the skins did credit him with less tackles then the stingy NFL gave him so . . . . . i wish mattyk72 was the caps goalie, cant slip anything past the kid

go skins!

The only thing the Redskins did to AA was let him rob them of money and valuable cap space...if I'm not mistaken, aren't we still paying his salary even though he's with Chicago?

Ha-Ha! (spoken in Nelson's voice)

Seriously, this sucks for AA. He went down the drain faster than anyone has ever.

Actually the Bears picked up $5M of his contract bonus which helped lighten the cap hit for us.

Arch deluxe sucks period. He did make out like a bandit with Snyder's money. I remember watching bears highlights and him being out of position EVERY big play. What did we ever see in this guy.lol

This helped more than a bit, it was a coup really.

Our FO screwed up by bringing him here, but give them credit for cutting their losses as best they could. I still don't understand why the Bears would pay $5M of his bonus when we'd probably have cut him anyways.

My buddy is a longtime Bears fan and last year he was so excited to get Arch. I tried to warn him but he wouldn't listen saying things like "Lovie coached him in Stl and will revamp his career" and "The Bears D is strong enough that Arch won't be asked to cover, only play the run..."

Let's just say that right now my buddy hates him more than I ever did.

Yeah, and count millions from his signing bonus with us...


HA..tat wun whaz funny

Yeah, and count millions from his signing bonus with us...

This guy is a scrub.
