What a shame for Big Mike. He worked so hard to get back and then his body betrayed him.

Is it me our does our OL in recent years seem cursed by health problems, both normal and exceptional?


We have crappy luck with our lines anymore. Doesn't matter if it is injuries or stuff like this. We simply have not put a decent emphasis on building up our O line. With Williams most likely to at least sit out a year or retire, we have to rely on Brown and our #1 rook to really be the stalwarts of the line. Rinehart and co are a bunch of bums that thus far really haven't stepped it up as yet to even really be considered for a starting job. We need to draft at least 2 more high round O linemen for the next two years striaght to get a decent line built, plus boost depth.

Prayers are with you BM. As far as the o-line, we really just lost a back up. Hicks was starting at rg anyway. There will be other guys available as training camp goes on. NO WORRIES!!

I think Big Mike could have started, but this by no means means the season is over before it starts. Sky is not falling

Gosh, I hope you're right...................................Its just that our o-line was so freakin bad last year. And with one guy going down alreeady before this season even starts. It just makes me worry that we're gonna suck again! I mean, what would happen now if Casey Rabach went down in Week 2 of the preason? CRAP! Thats what would happen! Man.................I need to build a bar in my house. Being a Redskins fan. I gotta have that bar..........

You have a point, BMW was attempting a career come back, not an all pro anchor of the line.
Hopefully somebody, (Rineart, Hicks,) steps up.

He hurts us at depth for the most part if this is a season ending thing. He was our best backup and a potential starter. Rinehart and co will need to really step it up. I still think just about all of our second stringers are bums. If we would have at least drafted one linemen in rounds 1-3 the past 4 drafts we would have been OK now. I forgot what round Dockery was drafted in.

I could understand if it was McNabb we were talking about. But BWM... really?

It's still early enough to find a decent veteran to bring to camp.

I think the o-line will be ok. Williams needs to stay active though, somehow. Why not play football?

I'm guessing he's going to be on blood thinners to reduce his chances of having a stroke. So it's probably not the best idea to be playing such a physical sport as football while on that type of med.

Prayers and thoughts with Big Mike, blood clot near the heart is pretty serious. He exceeded my expectations of even making it this far and challenging for a starting spot.

This is just plain bad luck...but because we have a quality FO now, we went out and got quality depth in Hicks already so things are not that bad. Plus like said above, we still have time to add vet help. Rineart step up? He is in the same category as Thomas and Kelly as past draft picks im sick of waiting for...finally show it this year or get off the team.
