Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Preseason Week 3)

I honestly don't think anyone is going to be lining up to add Colt to their active roster. Pass him through waivers and slip him onto the practice squad, and he might be back on the 53-man roster in 2010.

Agreed. Colt is not a commodity.

He is already better then Jordan Palmer, Dennis Dixon, Kyle Boller, Alex Smith to name a few. I bet he wouldn't make it one day if he was released. You gotta keep Colt, if we cut him whose going to make videos with Chris Cooley?

He also is not better than Graham Harrell, who is in the CFL.

I'm surprised that no one picked up Harrell just for camp fodder.

Harrell was more of a system QB then a pure passer.

Funny, cause, you could say the same thing about PJ5.

Doesn't necessarily validate the notion, but anything Brennan has done is something that (I believe) Harrell has done better.

Wasnt he cut by the BROWNS? Anderson and Quinn are good but he couldnt make the 3rd string? He couldnt even stay in camp until the initial cuts started. says it all for me. End Arguement.

Well Colt is going to be cut by the Redskins, so I guess they'll be in the same boat after all.

It kinda amazes me the level of assuredness that fans have about a guy who has never taken a regular season snap and has looked awful this preseason and is probably 50/50 to make the final 53 as a 3rd string QB. I really wonder if people like him because guys can relate to him. He's not that big, he slings it around like it's a backyard game, he's just like me! Well, there's a reason you are on the couch dude.

Sorry for the mini rant..

On to last night:
-The secondary didn't do a very good job of adjusting early on, but if this were a regular season game, I don't think that Hall would be isolated on Moss nearly as much.
-The penalties were ridiculous. Preseason or not, it's the little things that kill you. Getting an unsportsmanlike from the bench? That's not keeping it medium, Z.
-Shaun Suisham, buh-bye. That's exactly why you have competition now, because you miss to many FG and seem confused as to why. Now I don't know if Rayner is any better but I've seen enough of Shazam.

This may not be the right place for this but I think Z/Vinny could make 2 gutsy calls that could improve this team's explosiveness. Mitchell is at least the #5 WR and Thomas is probably the #4. Could Thomas replace Rock as the primary KR? Mason and Aldridge gave a dynamic we haven't had in a long time. Do we explore an opportunity to trade Betts? Portis, Mason, Aldridge is much more dynamic to me than Portis/Betts/Rock. Just a thought.

I did had same thought for a while, but then Zorn and coaches decided to give 3rd down duties to Betts.. Therefore, I highly doubt they would give up Betts.. Zorn and Smith will have difficult time deciding who makes the #3 spot, I guess this year might be the one when we say good bye to Rock.. I'm pulling for both Mason and Alridge, they just seem to be too good for us to let them both go (although we saw Alridge for only short time, he would need to do really well at the last game to convince coaches I believe).. And Dorsey goes to PS..

This was a dress rehersal for both teams. Both teams showed up ready to slug it out. Made for entertaining football.
Even Zorn started calling plays for Campbell to throw downfield!? What a concept!
Smoot started for absent C. Rogers and had a better than usual type game. Forcing DeAngelo Hall to play more man on R. Moss, which got him beat. To be expected.
Redskins might have a good stable of young RB's right now? huh? Great problem to have. Marcus Mason proved himself against the Pats#1 D. Mason never seems to get caught behind the line of scrimage, always gaining yards. I really like that. Mason has to be close to making this team.
I also want to see Aldridge & fb Eddie Williams with the starting O-line. That could be interesting.
Marko continues to look good. He needs to make this team.
Inspiring M. Kelly and D. Thomas to make some plays. Welcome. Where have you guys been hiding?
TE Fred Davis has been quietly making some great blocks. On the first TD Fred Davis and Samuels floored big R. Seymour which got Mason in.
I also like S #29 Lendy Holmes. He needs to make this team.
Cb #25 Kevin Barnes made a an interception.
Kareem Moore, Chris Wilson and Lorenzo Alexander are making plays on special teams.
DE Andre Carter is healthy and playing well.
QB Chase Daniel is making things interesting for Cult.
