haha. "The redskins released Rod Gardner today, one of the most consistant wide recievers in league. Gardner alone will win 5 games for any team willing to pick him up."

I agree with all of you.. AND... when the Redskins start playing well and winning, he'll jump on the bandwagon and start blowing Gibbs and saying he's the greatest coach..etc. What a tit.

[quote]Antonio Brown (8.9 yds) and James Thrash (8.5 yds) did much better on punt returns than Morton (6.2 yds). Betts was better (23.0 yds) on Kickoffs than Morton (22.4) Morton only had one good kickoff return return during his tenure here. That one being the TD against the Saints in 2003. Antonio Brown also had a return for 66 yds and Ladell Betts had one for 70 yards. Morton's long? 49 yards. Cutting Morton was a great move.[/quote]

Hard to compare two different special teams coaches like this. Is Morton a top 5? No. Could we do worse - yes. Antonio Brown doesn't have a whole lot in the way of moves, but when you have the speed he has it's not really that important!

Not sure the stats back this up but, I fell Morton was better as a KO return man than as a punt returner. Last year I recall more than one occasion when there were catchable punt in the air that he let hit the ground and bounce, costing us valuable yards. I always thought that if the punt is in the air and you have a chance to catch it you should, even if you have to fair-catch.

Those were the stats from last year, so they are from the same system and the same coaching staff.

Morton was defintely a better kickoff returner than punt returner.

King quote..."Spurrier will win big"

King is not always anti Redskin but even when he's not he's usually wrong anyway...

He also predicted Wuerfell would have a 30 TD season under Spurrier!

How's that for smoking some serious crack! I guess he got caught up in that preseason 49er game.

LOL!!!!!! WOW! I never heard that. The man just is not educated in the ways of sports.

Classic case of not knowing a team and judging a team by maybe seeing one game - a preseason game at that.

Actually guys, Peter King doesn't have a beef with the Redskins; he loves Gibbs, thought the trade for Moss was good for us, and correctly thought that the hiring of Gregg Williams was a good move.

Out of all of the bad things he's said however, that gives him a broadcasting record comparable to our football record last year.

man i love that guy's articles, i mean that is sports journalism at it's best. haha sike that bitch should retire for all i care. Okay, so he likes some of the things we've done, but lets face it, wherever there is criticism about the redskins, peter king isn't far to be found.

Re: Further Proof of an Anti Redskins Bias in the National Media
 
I actually don't mind Peter King; he's not always right in his predictions (as noted above, but he's smart, articulate, and doesn't appear to have a real bias.

That's more than I can say for Len Pastabelly.
