Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?

There are definitely plenty of positives to focus on, but right now it's hard for people to see. Good thread SS.

My only beef with your take is on Heyer. I'm just not sold that he has a future as a starter.

At this point, he's no worse than Jansen...and with Jansen's injury, we may see Heyer get another chance to prove himself at RT. He played pretty well in the 1st 3 games of the year. I'm biased because I followed him while he was a Terp, but I think Heyer has what it takes to be a solid RT for years to come.

The pieces are there, but it's going to take a valiant effort all around to right the ship. I think they are on the right track, just need to fill the holes and execute better. I hope that this year is a catalyst for much more success down the road.

Heyer didn't know a run play from a pass play last night. He was pass blocking instead of run blocking. I'm by far from sold on Heyer.

CP
Cooley
Sellers
Fletcher
Horton
Rogers
LL

That's about all i can think of right now.

Heyer has been pretty underwhelming all year. I honestly don't see what others see in him, he still plays too high and gets shoved around, his run blocking has always been suspect, and overall I just don't see him being a quality starter in this league. I hope I'm wrong.
