What's Arch gonna say???
 

His fall from grace was swift and very unexpected after signing a huge deal with us. Anybody wonder what his take is gonna be????? It's not going to be pretty.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

He'll say nothing. He at least keeps his mouth shut publicly. He may have been the source for the ESPN article but it was in secret. If he was so bent out of shape last season and never said anything then I imagine he'll stay on the highroad.

I am getting tired of disgruntled ex-Redskins

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

Who cares what he says? I'd be interested to hear what some bum on the street has to say before this idiot.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

i think if he says anything, it'll be along the lines of the tom friend report because i think he is the player.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

Honestly, it doesn't matter what anyone says. Didn't Gibbs just say about a week ago that Arch will be a Skin in 08? Yeah, it doesn't matter what anyone says, it just matters what they do. Arch sucked for us, and I for one wish him good luck with the Bears, their system will likely be a better fit than ours. He hurts us this year cap wise, but he's completely off the books for next season. That's not bad considering the contract we gave him.

Honestly, who gives a rats a**! His play or lack there of spoke loud and clear. See ya DON'T COME BACK! :Flush:

where are all the people that say the redskins need a gm? i cant believe they pulled this off. getting something in return and dumping that big salary was some good work by the boys in the front office

Maybe the reason they think a GM is needed is so that moves like this wont need to be made in the first place.

Yea they did a good job getting the tard outta here, at what expense? BIG
Yea the books are clean next year and all that crap. If we had a GOOD GM that knew players he would have never landed here to begin with.

I think that's why we need to get someone in here to take that GM position, so future mistakes of this kind don't continue to happen. Joe's not going to be here much longer.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

By the way folks....those sorry bears are makin a trip to our house this year!
We'll be sure to let ARCH know how much we miss him......when we run over him like a train! SWEET REVENGE, GET READY......CAN'T WAIT! :smashfrea

Oh he will be back.... Chicago Bears come to FedEx this year. Lovie Smith will know how use him. I do not think Arch's career is over.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

No worries cancun. He'll feel like is just got in a real bad accident, when he leaves DC! Mike Sellers, foot print's all over his head! :spank:

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

I saw this on the news last night and as they told the story they showed highlights from plays he made as a Ram. After they went back to the sports reporter he said "we could not find any good clips of him as a Redskin".

You are correct. :)

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

what is he going to say? the same thing every player says when they leave. coaches dont speak to them, have no idea what is going on, why they are sitting, why they are being lied to, organization is in disaray. isn't that what they all say. I think we are lucky to get his contract off our books, but when are GW and Gibbs going to be held responsible for these type of moves? Brunell(2 bad years, vs 1 so so year) Lloyd(10mil up front, unproven) Randel El(10mil up front, 30catches??) Carter(10mil up front, played well in 4 or 5 games) Arch(highest paid safety in history, we get 6th rounder) Barrow never played a game, kenny wright, mike rumph, troy vincent? the bad moves far outweigh the good. I really wish we could turn things around regarding the personel moves and player evaluations. Every "expert" in the NFL said Arch was going to struggle, wont adjust, but we throw millions out, and what happens. Hey, I thought Arch would do well here, I may have been a little optomistic i guess. we always bitch about this front office / organization, but they really haven't given any really good reasons not to bitch or complain. hopefully they will soon.

My point exactly! They only got so lucky with this ARCH deal??? yea they cleared the books after this year, GREAT. However, LOOK AT THE COST! FOR WHAT? NO RETURN ON THE MONEY SPENT, NOTTA.

We NEED a well polished GM to make personnel decision's. Let the coach's coach. Let the guys that have all there time dedicated to picking the correct talent, such as a GM... to work with Joe do there job. To me it's only common sense.

Poor Bear fans... they were listing his combine stats from his rookie year.

I had to say something.

A GM with stones would have challenged Gre-double GG's idea of taking a strong safety enforcer and converting him to a free safety coverage guy. That's a risk all by itself. The only way that move makes any sense is if the Redskins thought Sean Taylor would have a new Dade County address last season. That was a 50-50 proposition at the time.

But, selecting players by name recognition, poor concepts of roster fits, over-paying for one player when you might have signed three good role players, and dumping a guy who will likely start for a Super Bowl caliber defense for a sixth round draft choice are evidence of the need for a good, strong general manager. The whole crappy deal is on the front office, not Archuleta.

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

Adam got alot of heat from the media and skins fans. Arch is a private and quit guy. I got to meet him at fedex last year and I asked him how he has taken everything and his reply was I will continue to work hard and play hard because that's who I am. Generic yes but a soft spoken guy. None of us would complain one bit if we looked for a new job and the company said here is 25 mill go to work. More then likley we could care less what anyone has to say we would sit back and watch our money pile up. Let's just wish him luck and by the way PRO BOWL 2008 you heard it here first

Re: What's Arch gonna say???
 

Anyone else hear his comments on [URL="http://midatlantic.comcastsportsnet.com/shows-WPL.asp"]Washington Post Live [/URL]yesterday?

I caught a little bit of it this morning on Sportsrise and he didn't trash the Skins as much as some players in the past have (maybe it was because he was on a DC show). The website for the show doesn't have the audio of the interview, but it does have a hot second of Springs talking about AA but it's nothing we haven't hear.
Arch basically said that last year he "hit rock bottom" and he hopes to learn and grow from it. He also said he wouldn't speak about his time in DC too much more, but who knows how much of that is true. He said it was true that [I]some[/I] coaches didn't speak to him for half the season, but he didn't specify which coaches.
Maybe he was trying to cover his ass because he was the ESPN article source, or maybe he really just feels like he had a terrible season and a clean and clear break is the best thing for everyone.
