Re: Unfortunate perspective-We AREN'T who we thought we were.

hmmmm Herrington, Losman, Frye, Carr, Favre, Brees, Smith are the team leaders/QB's through spring/tc/sc/preseason.

We are who we think we are. Once we get that down the sky is the limit.

We got lazy thinking that our FA pickups will magically just win us games. Carter has been mediocre at best, Archuleta sucks, Lloyd needs sticky gloves....El has been great

We are who we think we are.

Mediocre is far too complimentary for Carter, he's been as big of a bust as AA but his garbageosity (ok, so I made that up) is just as bad. He is making absolutely ZERO impact on the defense. He doesn't pressure the passer, doesn't make big plays in the run game, doesn't tip passes. What does he do that Wynn/Daniels weren't doing last year?

wow... what game do you watch... Lloyd has answered the call more than any other reciever. The guy has dropped like 1 ball, and made some amazing catches in and out of coverage for us when we've needed him to. Also, he saved 2 ints in the Cowboys game, even though Gtripp will tell you it was lloyd who put the db in position and brunell threw it just right so that it could be tipped away by lloyd, since he sucks.

I got aggervated when he missed the slant last week, then I saw the replay where he was laid out to catch the ball thrown 8 feet behind him while his feet were still trying to run, and forgave him.

I'm sick of people berating lloyd. He's been a great team guy since he's been here and has been a great reciever for us. He plays with passion, he celebrates good blocks, and he's quickly becoming one of my fav. redskins.

I like Lloyd and love his penchant for the big catch, but what I've noticed about him is if you don't involve him in the offense early, he'll disappear for the rest of the game.

Lloyd certainly isn't a problem at all, but I'm tired of the "we have great receivers" excuse. Every team has their own Brandon Lloyd-type. I like what he's doing thus far, but it's nothing to get turned on about.

But thanks for speaking for me. You'd make a better GTripp than anyone but me. Or Tafkas. Or Hesscl. Or pretty much anyone else.
