If that were to happen and they both end up 0-15-1 what is the tie breaker to see who gets first draft pick? Would it be points for, points against? Obviously all the other standards that could be applied would be the same, as conference record, head to head, common opponents, etc,etc. Dolphins have a major head start trying to lose the points for points against battle.

If word got out that he was faking an injury, (which is contrary to his entire football playing history) it would arguably hurt his market value more than being dinged up after the season.


The Redskins had the most injured players that last TWO SEASONS. Partly due to poor conditioning and soft practices. But one also suspects that some players use the opportunity of a losing season, on a losing franchise to perhaps “exaggerate injuries to save themselves for next season”. Agreed that Scherff is tough and plays hurt. I withdraw my statement about Scherff, but still submit that some players will use the closing culture of this Redskins to exaggerate injuries.

BTW, Callahan is having players doing post-practice sprints to toughen then up!

Which players would sprints toughen up the most?

Re: Skins Wins - predictions go here

I'm going to need to see a few wins before I'll buy into this idea that running sprints and having a tougher practice is making a difference.

It won't change much, yeah they may beat Miami Sunday (maybe) but this team sucks. It's a 3-13 team at best, look at our schedule, who are they going to beat besides Miami? I don't see anyone

Even if we pound Miami I don't want to hear people crowing about how Callahan has magically turned shit around and what a turd Gruden was. Let's string some wins together first.

Yep.

Just putting this here:

Miami's defense is the worst.

Re: Skins Wins - predictions go here

There is some backlash in Miami, against making the “tanking strategy” look a little easy and casual.

I see them coming out with fire.
