Re: Lavar In 2008

I guess I can't argue with you redksinz79. Anything could happen.

It's just highly improbable, and for the sake of logical argument.... It's not even worth discussing. He's proven well beyond reasonable doubt that he can no longer perform at the pro level.

When (I can't believe I'm still putting effort into a Lavar thread... but I digress) a player who's sole strength was that he was a physical freak of nature... it leaves you with weaknesses. He would leap over offensive lines. He would terrorize you with his athleticism. It made you cringe to watch him fly across the field and hit with the kind of passion that you rarely see. He was the total package physically, and therein lies his flaw.

He's been called virtually uncoachable by incredibly respected head coaches. He's thrown Joe Gibbs under the bus. He's ostracized himself from the entire Redskins organization. He's never fully grasped an NFL scheme mentally... and always has been known as a free lancer. My point here Redkinz79 is that while your right that by some freak miracle healing he could come back to compete; He will never... ever, ever be in anywhere near the shape he was in his prime.

He will not be the predator. He will be a mediocre (at the very best) linebacker that makes slow reads... and no longer has the freakish physical abilities to compensate for them.

Can you argue that Lavar might come back? Sure...

But to even hint at the fact that he could somehow play a role comparable to his first stint is insane. His strengths are plagued by injuries, and it's as if his brilliance physically caused any football smarts he had to atrophy, because he just didn't need them... until now.

So please... for the love of God... let's not bring up Lavar ever again.
