Yes but he also said it's weak and it's a matter of getting the strength back so he can stay on his blocks. He even said it would probably be a game time decision. Doesn't sound like someone you would want to start. I actually understand the decision to start Montgomery better now.

Yea, I agree.. But I also think Zorn and Bugel should talk to Rhino about this role.. It doesn't sound like Rhino is good at taking criticisms, so there's no need to make it worse when they can talk about it..

samuels' season may be done

the hits keep coming for the washington redskins. Citing "league sources" the washington post is reporting that pro bowl left tackle chris samuels may be done for the year.

That was pretty much what we feared the other day when we saw gregg rosenthal's post the other day that said the 32-year-old was suffering from spinal stenosis, which is a narrowing of the spine, and that washington coach jim zorn said the team was "still working through" his long-term prognosis.

Stephon heyer will replace samuels, according to the post, while mike williams -- who made his first nfl start since 2005 last sunday -- kicks out to right guard.

rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic is what they call it, i believe.

lmao!!

Seriously though, I've got to think there are some guys out there who could come in and contribute.

So whats his story? Asking price to high or just a bad seed or is he injury plagued.

Luxorreb · 10-17-2009, 05:53 AM

Can we get Kendall and Runyan here?

Jesus!
How did we not see this coming? Cerrato should be fired for this alone.

I just wanted to say that Heyer is the worst left tackle I have ever seen. He sucks as a right tackle also.

If by "we" you mean the Redskins as an organization, that's the million dollar question.

But if you mean "we" at The Warpath, "we" did see this coming. That's a drum that's been beaten around these parts since before the '07 season.

Obviously, they don't listen to us.

Damn strait. I wanted Oher, Tits Maggie, Mack, Duke, and Loadholt. Just one or two of those guys, which we could've gottten, would've made a big difference right now.

I liked the Orakpo pick, but now I'm starting to waver on whether that was the right way to go. If you're going to get Jarmon in the supplemental draft, and if you're going to play Orakpo at linebacker, and you have a defensive coordinator who thinks that quarterback sacks are overrated, then maybe they should have taken Oher.

Thanks to Danny/Vinny's approach to team development, the Redskins are NOT an effective replacement for Chris Samuels away from having a good offensive line, much less a great one. Effective management recognizes that great teams start with the OL and DL, and that lines can only be build through drafting IN DEPTH. That's how the Giants, Patriots, and Broncos have been doing it.

The problem is long-term, and it starts with Snyder's ineptitude.
