Who's the most popular Redskin now?

I'd have to go with Chris Cooley. He's brought back the Redskins H-back position . . . consistently holds the offense together with big plays. Let's not forget he's got a little Riggins in him, personality-wise.

Going out, dating cheerleaders, wearing crazy garb at camp . . . the shorts and the red stockings.

So if Cooley's fanbase is comprised of mostly women then it doesn't count right? If you take all those lady fans and add a respectable number of male fans, then I'd say Cooley could be the most popular.

Cooley is the most popular with me, Fletcher and Rocky close behind. I don't know why Taylor is my guy. I guess, at bottom, I don't quite trust him in deep coverage. The extreme physical superiority he is supposed to possess almost never shows up in the stats and only rarely on the field. He's good but over-hyped.

So leading the league with 5 interceptions throughout 8 games is not possessing talent and not showing up on stats? Hmm.. How about the jaw dropping hits he laid upon people time after time? Are you seriously talking about the same sean taylor that is on the Redskins? He's not overhyped, he's the most feared safety in the game where few receivers dare to take a head on collision hit with. The only reason why I think he's overlooked is because he's not vocal enough.. but in terms of talent and football given attributes, he shines by far from anyone who wears the color of burgundy and gold.

Taylor's my guy - Perfect example of his impact in the Jets game when the NY receiver stopped reaching a ball over the middle for a brief instant - it was clear as day that he was bracing for a big Taylor hit. Moose Johnston was too much of a knucklehead to credit Taylor's intimidation on the play. Johnston sure was quick to pin Landry's personal foul on Taylor though. It's pretty clear to me that Johnston is in Ditka's camp as a Taylor hater.

Big Cools (Cooley) has to be the most underrated TE in the League. I think we should be throwing his way more often.

I am going to say Coach Gibbs or am I suppose to choose a player?

Who cares? No one wants to be know for getting thumped by the Patriots.

That does seem to be the case. I am of the opinion that we are better with him than we would be without.

Chris Cooley & Sean Taylor are the most productive players on the teams so far. Fletcher & McIntosh are damn good linebackers but I still gonna go with Cooley & Taylor.

Re: Who's the most popular Redskin now?

It really depends. If we're talking about Jersey sales, Taylor / Portis are tops. If we're talking about feelings from real fans, I say Sellers and even Cartright are high on the list and Cooley is one of those players that you can't dislike. Campbell was an early season favorite, but has fallen out of grace since his poor play recently.

I would say the rest of the world thinks of Portis when they think of the Redskins still, he's the biggest name....but for me, it's big pimpin' Cooley....I met him and Gibbs at the race in Charlotte back in May of this year and he was super nice...just hanging out.
