Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

thrash and betts will return, moss can if needed... and parson can be activated if needed.

thrash is the ST guy and betts and moss are kinda important, so this leaves us a bit thin at WR... hope jacobs is ready to pick it up NOW.

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

[QUOTE=jrocx69]its not that at all
gibbs changed the playcalling as well as put ramsey in the same time. i think last year brunell was learning a new system as well as ramsey. ramsey didnt win games for us as much as gibbs changed the playcalling towards the end of the season. dont get me wrong, ramsey did "ok" but i'd prefer to use brunell, he looks like he's more on page this season and definitely moves in the pocket instead of being a useless sitting duck. everyone keeps saying "gibbs is not keeping his word" gibbs doesnt owe any of us shit but getting wins, no matter what the case. and he cant come out and say certain things because other teams, especially our division foes are watching, incase some people think gibbs can justify everything thing. a coach being honest with the media at all times gets you in trouble. "coach gibbs, are you confident in ramsey?" :gibbs: "no he is useless in the pocket and makes shitty decisions" hmmm, is that what you guys want to hear?? let the coach be the coach and you guys be the fans. gibbs knows what he is doing, you guys let the media translate and give stories extra toppings and some of you guys think you know the whole story. gibbs named a starter, but he didnt say that starter wouldnt be yanked at any given time. and i think they are both starting to realize that the redskins and ramsey arent going to work the way you want them to. face reality peeps who are critics. gibbs see's everything behind the scenes and hears alot more than our little interviews we get on skins .com and the post.
YOU DONT KNOW BUT WHAT THE MEDIA GIVES US[/QUOTE]

please, cut out all this bow-down-and-accept-my-views crap, man... we're allowed to disagree with you, and with gibbs. I'm really getting tired of people like you telling us that we have no right to as opposing opinions. We've all seen the games and a bunch of the practices, and that counts for something. Whatever happens behind the scenes, the on-field results are the most important measure.

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

i know everyone is talking about brown being released but I am real excited about novak being signed.why is this you ask well if you are a university of maryland fan than you already know.this kid was rock solid in college and boomed the shit out of the ball everytime.I just hope that will continue in the pros for us.any other maryland fans out there that agree?

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

I'm gonna start calling Hall Mr. Glass man, if he wasn't hurt we could of signed that white boy who scored those td during the season... I forget his name

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

[QUOTE=BigSKINBauer]Gotta love our depth at WR right now.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's a bit disconcerting. Really all we have now are four receivers. One of whom (Thrash) will be sharing return duties, and another (Jacobs) who has yet to prove he can be healthy on a consistent basis. That leaves us really thin. Do we call up Parson? Bring back Dyson maybe?

But I'm also wondering is this just a temporary roster move? I mean they sign Nick Novak to a contract because Hall is hurt. But Hall isn't put on IR and we have a bye week next week. So Brown is released so we can add a kicker for this week. In a week or two, we cut Novak and resign Brown provided he's still available. It's a gamble, and not the smartest one in my opinion, but I suppose it's possible

I think brown's turnovers killed his chances for this team. U can find many fast guys if u look hard enough, but guy that won't make mistakes if whats really important.

Brian Mitchel u ready to come out of retirement?

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

actually nick novak competed with jose cortez in dallas in the preseason and from the reports i heard, he sucked. cortez easily won the kicking job. i doubt novak will be our replacement for hall, i think they would sign someone else. that's just my opinion though.

Actually, he spent the entire preseason with Chicago. They cut him in late August, then the Cowboys claimed him for a couple days, but eventually released him. From what I heard, he very nearly outplayed Brien with the Bears.

Re: Brown released, Nick Novak signed
 

Anyone upset over the loss of Brown has not been watching the games. They have several people already on the roster that can do as good or better than Brown without the fumbles.

Basically the redskins are making all moves necessary to minimize turnovers. They are a ball control defensive team and that formula only works if you protect the football.

Hmm, maybe i was wrong. I heard it from a cowboys fan i know, maybe he was wrong. either way, i know he did play a bit for the cowboys, but whatever.

[QUOTE=jbcjr14]Holy Shit....the statement has been made folks. Clearly the tone is set at Redskin Park this Tuesday the 13th of September. There will be ZERO tolerance for turnovers. Protect the ball or your ass is out. LOVE IT!

Yeah, unless your Mark Brunell.... you can score 7 points for the other team every week and keep your job.

The only way you lose your job is if you generate game losing, devastating turnovers consistently over your brief NFL career and then defecate your drawers in suprise when you get benched. Self entitlement is the only sure way to the bench.
