Warpath Q&A with Redskins safety Reed Doughty

tryfuhl · 06-22-2010, 10:44 PM

Mr. Doughty, I'd like to know what the major differences are in the offseason programs that you've experienced with each coach. Also, has there been anything new that you hadn't experienced or had been mostly neglected in previous years?

How is his son doing with the new kidney? Also, if Reed grew up in Colorado, was he a Broncos fan? If so, how does it feel to be playing for Shanahan?

Yes, definitely. Can't believe I forgot to ask about Micah.

Reed, what are your thoughts on Chris Horton's progress? He started out red hot in 2008 before losing the starting spot back to you and being injured late last year...I know it might be awkward to speak about the guy trying to take your spot, but what are your thoughts on his progression as a player and his future in Washington?

Reed:

It seems to me the Haslett philosophy is to be the aggressor (defense vs. offense) so that ideally the offense starts to react to the defense rather than the other way around. Am I correct w/ this? And do you feel this defense has more potential than the other groups through your tenure w/ the Skins?

P.S. Thanks for being such a great team guy and a high character guy

God bless you and your family!

Hey Reed!

Who is more likely to force you to take an extra half step back in coverage because of the unique stress that these type of players present?

A) An elite top five WR

or

B) An elite top five QB

Thanks again and have a great year!

good one i've always wondered which was more feared by db's

what was it like being drafted out of such a small school in the 6th round? what were your feelings going into draft day?

What's your favorite type of pie (thank you WilsoWilso for reminding me about this standard question)

If you could line up next to any other safety in the history of the league, who would that be?

If you weren't playing football, what would you be doing?

And another blast from the past... Reed, do you know the answer to Question 3?

Also, what would you say is the biggest deference from Gregg Williams to Greg Blache to Jim Haslett?

Reed,
You are a character guy and you have a tremendous work ethic. I commend this and want to thank you for your hard work on and off the field...
With the Haynesworth situation, do you see the defense uniting and working that much harder to distance yourselves from the stigma that he has brought or is it pretty much business as usual?
I know you a have a full plate with the Redskins and your family. When you do get solo time, how do you prefer to spend it? Any hobbies or activities you enjoy?

Reed,

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? You have to say it very fast to give a good answer.

And also, are you liking the switch to the 3-4 from a safeties standpoint or from what you have seen do you think you personally would have rather stayed in the 4-3?

Thanks, You're awesome!
