freddyg12 09-08-2011, 01:10 PM Knocking landry for talking shit and getting hyped about the game is just stupid.... almost every player does it u see those sound fx shows and wat not... its an intense grown ass mans game.. Landry has made more plays for us thru the years than not, I'm sick of hearing ppl hate the player and not the game.
There's a bit more to it IMO. Yeah, lots of guys talk, but when you talk trash before the game then get burnt on the opening play like he did in the philly game, it brings a lot of negative attention to you.
Landry's issue isn't the talking, that may just be a symptom, his issues are being a good all around safety, not just making the big hit & letting everyone know. I think he's shown what he's capable of yet hasn't put it all together yet. I agree though, he makes more plays than not.

Does LL spitting twice on a player and starting a fight with him bother you in the least, or does LL get a pass yet again for having muscles? What about scheduling vacations during the season, or running his mouth on twitter?
I don't think that people on here so much hate the man, as want him to act better.
hooskins 09-08-2011, 01:19 PM Isn't ironic? Don't ya think? It's like rain-eee-ainnnn on a wedding day....
The biggest thing about the spitting allegation ...... is the latter word
And I don't think he ever got over, subconsciously, losing ST.. they got pretty close and after he was gone all LL wanted to do was play like he did... its effected the guy
NLC1054 09-08-2011, 01:31 PM Do we even know if Landry was talking trash before the game though?
Something irked me about that story. I don't think LaRon and D-Hall would be making fun of DeSean's concussion, and if they were making fun of him, why the frak would they do it in earshot?
When I look at that fight, I see LaRon pat DeSean on the shoulder like "have a good game", and then DeSean flies off the fricking handle for some reason and shoves LaRon, which started the whole fight.
And the real problem on the first play was that the play call was friggin' stupid. Haslett made D-Hall the spy for Michael Vick on that play. D-Hall gets no jam on DeSean Jackson off the line of scrimmage since he either is spying Vick or bit on the play fake, and Landry, already dealing with the achilles injury, wasn't going to beat D-Jax in a foot race.
Landry looks like he started a fight and then got burnt, when it seems to me that dude got the bad end of a stupid situation with DeSean being a brat about something, and then this defensive coordinator and cornerback essentially selling him out.
Bucket 09-08-2011, 01:34 PM Spitting on a guy? Because another player said he spit? is there any proof of this spitting?
We understand polywog dislikes Landry on a personal level, but he brings it to the table when he's asked, and I love watching him play.

The Washington Redskins’ LaRon Landry said he was nowhere near the Eagles’ Mike McGlynn on two extra points and couldn’t have spit on McGlynn. But game video shows otherwise.
Landry is at the center of a controversy after multiple Eagles players accused him of dirty play in the Redskins’ epic 59-28 loss to the Eagles on Monday night.
After the game, the Eagles’ starting center, McGlynn, told reporters Landry went up to him on two extra points and spit directly in McGlynn’s face.
Landry responded by saying he was nowhere near McGlynn on the eight extra-points attempted by the Eagles in the game, and he could not have spit on McGlynn.
This is what Landry told the Washington Post :
"This is my answer: When would I ever be in touch with the center? I never blitz the 'A' gap." Landry said. When told McGlynn said the incidents occurred during extra points, he said: "Extra points? Still, when would I ever be in the 'A' gap? Extra points I'm on the end. With that said, that's your answer."
McGlynn claimed Landry spit on him after the Eagles scored their third touchdown and were kicking an extra point to make score 21-0.
The video from that play is inconclusive on the ESPN broadcast, since the director cut from the extra point to show McNabb’s reaction.
But video from the second extra point shows Landry (wearing no. 30 in red) lined up opposite the Eagles left tackle and walking right up to McGlynn (wearing no. 77 in green) after the kick when McGlynn was prone of the ground.
Landry can be seen leaning over and staring directly at McGlynn, with a distance of just several feet separating the heads of the two players.
On the broadcast, there are two other incidents where Landry appears to be close to McGlynn on the fifth and sixth extra points.
Landry also started the pre-game scrum last night that fired up the Eagles, along with Redskins' cornerback DeAngelo Hall.
Landry was burned by Vick and Jackson when they connected on an 88-yard TD pass against Landry to start the game for the Eagles.
Jackson was seen taunting Landry as he danced backwards into the end zone on the long pass.
Fox Sports says Landry and teammate DeAngelo Hall were taunting Jackson because of his recent concussions in a locker room tunnel as the teams were coming on the field.
“He brought up my concussion, and said, ‘I’m going to put you asleep again,’ ” said Jackson.
There were other reports Landry was bullying Jackson by making hand signs that he was going to give Jackson another concussion.
Come on. I dislike the Eagles too, but you have several witnesses who claimed that this happened and LL himself giving a false/conflicting statement. :doh:
Do we even know if Landry was talking trash before the game though?

Landry was back and in position to make a play - he was just flat out beat.

wilsowilso 09-08-2011, 02:03 PM The only problem I have with Laron Landry is the fact that his football IQ is atrocious.
We are much better when he is on the field ONLY when the defensive coaching staff makes sure he doesn't have to think. At all. Ever.
