re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
as long as tryon still sits and let Horton, or even Erasmus James play dime in front of "tryin' not to suck" then we should still be fine. Springs is great but Smoot and Rogers (now healthy, woohoo!) are better than most teams starters.

Woah.....why are you guys knocking Shawn Springs all of a sudden? This guy replaced Champ Bailey and our defense didn't miss a beat if you ask me. He gets hurt a lot, but that's part of the game.

Who's knocking SS? I love him but we will be worse without him. |
re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
We are going to be set up for disaster if Tryon has to play tonight. I'm sure the Giants watched our preseason games and saw how much of a liability Tryon is.
If they start overmatching Tryon with a superior receiver than this game might turn ugly. I hope we can recover from Springs being out today. |

That's disappointing about Springs. They should have done what they did last year during the Bears game to him. Remember when he was supposed to be out for the game but then at the last minute decided to play, but couldn't find his shoulder pads? Supposedly, Jerry Gray had the equipment manager hide Springs' stuff and told Springs something to the extent of "Well we figured you'd sit out this game anyway" but it was said in a "what's new? we can't depend on you to stay healthy" condescending kind of way that got Springs fired up and he had a huge, HUGE, game for us.
That said though, with his experience he shouldn't need that sort of motivation. Anyhow, we'll miss him tonight. It's Smoooooooooot time now |

re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
Just got in from the gym- no Springs?? Well shit. Eli will abuse Tryon if he's in there. This is not good at all. Our secondary will be tested early and often. We play against the Super Bowl MVP tonight, Drew Brees week 2, Kurt Warner week 3 (had one of the best second halves of any QB in the league last year), then Romo and McNabb weeks 4 and 5, both on the road. A dinged up Springs, a surgically repaired Rogers, Smoot, and then who behind them? Shit shit shit

Sorry man. I know. I'm just really jittery right now. I've got some scotch in the freezer. I think it's gonna get broken out sooner rather than later. I'm pacing around my living room right now. |
re: Springs out for tonight (calf)

re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
Yeah well I figured this was going to happen when we got a whiff from the Giants article. How disappointing, I'm drunk.

Another dude called him a bitch and another guy thinks Springs doesn't want to be a Redskin? That's a pretty big knock against a Redskin. |

It doesn't take much for people to turn on a guy. |
re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
Hey I love me some Springs but he's fragile.
|
re: Springs out for tonight (calf)
I've got no ill words for SS. As long as he's back next week, let him sit it out.
Can't say I'm not concerned about Tryon playing tonight though... He makes Leigh Torrence look like Champ Bailey. :doh: |
