Taylor still not first team

MTK · 08-12-2004, 11:57 AM

He had 2 more picks in practice yesterday but he's still not working with the first team. Damn this staff is making him earn his keep! He'll be there soon enough though.

That's a great sign, make him really feel like he's earned it. I much prefer the Gibbs way.

illdefined · 08-12-2004, 12:16 PM

hell yeah. there are 4 more preseason games left. Gibbs is making everyone earn their position (or at least feel like they're earning it). imagine if Hasselbeck had 4 more games like the last one? think Gibbs wouldn't make him the starter?? of course he would! he won a superbowl with Mark Rypien for chrissakes, Gibbs doesnt speak contract, big name, or draft round, he speaks RESULTS.

I agree. This is vintage Gibbs with rookies. He will be installed as the starter soon enough to have time to develop cohesion with the rest of the D. It sure looks like once he DOES get moved into the starting role, he will be impossible to ever move out!!

As far as TH, I really think Gibbs will wait until the after the 4th preseason game to make his final decision. I don't think the rustiness on the two frontrunners has dropped them yet, but I believe TH has played and practiced himself from a certain #3 slot into possible contention for a #1 or #2 position. (He still has a way to go to prove himself, but now will get that opportunity.) Regardless, I expect all 4 QB's to stay with the team, with Hamden on the PS.

where can a person find more pics, footage, sound bites, etc. from practice..... before wednesday anyways. Redskins.com just doesn't quite get enough out to the public I don't think.

That Guy · 08-12-2004, 02:12 PM

get joe crisp paid so he can stay on longer

thats about it... he put up daily reports, every play by every QB in 9 on 9, and lots of audio for the week or so he was out at camp.

SKINSnCANES · 08-12-2004, 02:35 PM

yea joes reports were great.

and I hope hasselback keeps playing well, mabye brunell and ramsey need a little kick in the butt to get them into gear and play at a higher level.

d151b · 08-12-2004, 03:21 PM

cool, who's joe and how do i get his reports?

Joe Crisp is a warpath legend.

I love the way ST is being made to earn the starting spot, he isn't exactly shy about his talent it just keeps it in perspective for him.

d151b · 08-12-2004, 03:40 PM

that's sweet, thanks! is that joe's job or does he do all of that on the side?

Dave Butz Baby! · 08-12-2004, 03:46 PM

Joe C is a godsend. It's all volunteer work.

And as an added bonus, he's a cool dude.

d151b · 08-12-2004, 03:48 PM

Wow, Joe is to be commended ! That's gotta be pretty awesome to get all those interviews and stuff.

Riggo44 · 08-12-2004, 04:54 PM
