Re: Is Lavar's Career over?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...whoa...whoa. Not as many weapons as KC?! Come on now. Moss alone was better than his whole WR corps. Cooley is just as good as Gonzo. Portis is better than Holmes who was on the last legs of his career. Add Lloyd and Randle El to Moss and you have a WR corps that is SUPERIOR to KC's. Also, Brunell (when he's not injured) is also a far superior quarterback to Green.

Priest Holmes is listed at 213 lbs. Portis is listed at 212lbs. Is 213 the cutoff weight to be considered a "big back"?

I never said you "did'nt" have wepond just not the same ones and I noticed that people are still ignoring the learning factor of the O .
Cooly is the same as Gonzo ???????????? Ahhhh NO .

Portis to Holmes ...ahhhh NO to that to .

Over the last two years Brunell can't touch Green .

Last year no but I will give you the recieving core this year .

And i guess you suppose that Sammy Parker, Dante Hall, and Eddie Kennison are all better than Moss, Randle El, and Lloyd. HAHAHAHA Just admit that you are scared.

Yep. Cooley is the same as Gonzo. Gonzo is on the tail end of his prime and Cooley is just entering his.

2005 Washington Redskins 16 16 7177410.93276044
2005 Kansas City Chiefs 16 16 78 90511.63929045

Compare those stats. Cooley had only 110 yards less than Gonzo AND 5 more TDs. Let's also remember that Gonzo is their PRIMARY receiver because they have no one else. Cooley shared receptions with the second leading receiver in the league.

Brunell AGAIN is far superior to Green.

2005Washington Redskins161545426257.730506.7278231027/21336985.92005Kansas City Chiefs161650731762.540147.9260171032/204511190.1
Get all the yards you want, but TDs are where it counts. Also, playoff wins are where it counts. I won't deny that Brunell is HIGHLY ineffective when he's hurt, but Green couldn't hold Brunell's johnson when he's healthy.

And let's not even get started on the Portis and Holmes thing. It's ALMOST comparing apples to oranges because Holmes is like Gonzo, on his way out of his prime and Portis is just entering his. The jury is still out on that one, but you would have to come up with a pretty good argument to convince me that Holmes was/is better than Portis if Portis keeps up his current production.

Whoa, wait! Are we talking real football or Madden 2k5? If this is a video game discussion then I'm sorry, I misunderstood.

You know what, I can't wait til the redskins play the giants. I believe that gibbs and company will be working overtime to avenge the only division loss last year. And honestly, I think the only reason you are talking sh*t ( or trying to anyway) is that you look at the skins offense and are more than a little worried because you see the same thing I see: an offense that was good enough last year to make and win in the playoffs, which got a whole lot better with wideout playmakers and offensive guru Saunders.

But don't worry, it will be all over soon enough (after the redskins wax the giants in both games).

They did not bring Saunders in to change the entire play book. They brought him in to enhance the playbook and give the skins some new looks. Why would the Skins change the entire O when what we had (which I will admit was inefective at times) a good O last year. Saunders will add plays here and there and will add some different looks to the plays already in the play book.

Re: Is Lavar's Career over?

Right. Giantone, I welcome any fan who wants to come here and have an informative discussion, but before you go spouting off at the mouth, put some facts behind it.

Just like anyone, I'll give credit where it's due and I'll readily admit the division is the Skins or Giants to lose. The Giants need more of a receiving threat and I think it'll take a season or two before Sinorice gets up to speed. Plaxico is alright, but he really does take plays off and whines like a little girl when the ball is thrown poorly. Eli will probably stay at the same production this year and Tiki will have another monster year.

Defense-wise, I think Arrington will make some big plays which will make you forget about the TRULY dumbass plays that he'll make most of the year. Pierce will be a monster again. Strahan is on the way out, another year older, another year slower, but he'll still be better then your average DE. Osi's year was a fluke I think due to the pressure put on by Strahan. I doubt he repeats again this year, but I still put them as the top DE duo in the division. The defensive line is still suspect and the CBs look to possibly have improved with the subtraction of Will Allen and signing of Sam Madison. For the Giants sake, I hope Madison isn't one of those old "Skins" signings where they signed a huge contract for a vet on the downslide (a la Bruce Smith).

Speaking purely objectively about the Redskins, the receiving corps as a whole instantly became better than any of them in the NFC East. Moss, second leading receiver in the league, Lloyd had comparatively big numbers for a TOTALLY shitty 49ers team. We all know about Randle El, and his numbers don't even speak to what he'll bring to the table because he played for a run-first team. Randle El instantly gives the Skins a dangerous return man and a trick play threat. Receiving-wise, I think the Giants are second behind the Skins with Shockey as a receiver and the Cowboys a VERY close third because we all know how good TO is (even though he has NO supporting cast). The Redskins offensive line will again be dominant in the running game, and basically the Skins will go as far as Brunell takes them. If he stays healthy, I can realistically see a 13-3 record or better. The defense has been elite the past two years and the Skins signed a number of playmakers on that side.

Nicely done TMC.......it shouldn't be long now before Giantone responds by calling you "a ass" or making some stupid joke like asking you if he can substitute a shake for his coke.

Re: Is Lavar's Career over?

Thanks guys. I just get fired up when people come in and make sweeping statements without any type of evidence. I mean if you want to go on stats, go on stats and back them up. But don't just be like, "Cooley is no Gonzo." because instantly that's going to bring the question, "Why not?" which requires some proof and Cooley has only been in this league two years and is putting up almost the same numbers as Gonzo and not even being the featured receiver. Gonzo is THE only receiver on that team. Kennison is just the neighborhood whore and if Hall were that good, he'd be more than just a return man pretending he's a WR.
