No Such Thing as a Quick Fix

He's a true Redskins for life. Now Samuels on the other hand has all the physical tools. He just lacks focus and consistency. If Samuels doesn't restructure his deal, then we might be either drafting or shopping for a new LT. Dockery still has room for improvement and with time, I think he'll step up. I wouldn't mind an upgrade at center. Raymer has been inconsistent, and Friedman is definitely not considered a "starting" center.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to get rid of Jansen and Samuels, I just think they are kinda soft. They are good at what they do, but they don't intimidate anyone. I'm just tired of seeing us getting pushed around all the time. I don't advocate penalties all the time or even every game, but when you faced Williams or Allen you knew you were in for a physical fight, a battle all game long.. Our linemen seem content to just 'redirect' defensive players rather than to knock their d*cks in the dirt like the old Hogs did. Someone needs to have a nasty attitude to set the tone for the line.
