Redskins

[Jammer]

Ok I think it is time for this team to have it's own thread. What are they doing here? First they bench McNabb and Shanny gives them a bunch of different reasons why and now they are working out JaMarcus Russell.

Let me be the first to reply...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

[rabb]

I love Shanny, and I will always love him for what he brought to Denver for many years

but folks, this is why he is not here anymore...get used to having your team rebuilt through terrible draft picks and retreads via free agency Redskins fans

They're lucky to get Russell in there like that. I hear that Wal-Mart is a real pain in the ass about giving their staff days off.

And this is different from the status quo how?

If we aren't gonna win the Super Bowl at least I am entertained. The Redskins boards are some good reading today. McNabb has looked woeful this year, I hope this is another kick in the ass for him. Jabarcus could not do much worse at the moment. Brandon Banks is MONEY and I missd the Detroit game so I am not on suicide watch this week.

Oh, I beg to fucking differ

Yeah you're right, a bit rash on my part.

As Crazy Horse once said when declined a table at a prestigious restaurant, "but I have reservations!"

Rabb, your thoughts?

Former Denver Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer retired after the 2006 season and he’s having the time of his life living in his native Idaho.

Still, Plummer is paying attention to the shenanigans of his former coach, Mike Shanahan, who benched Donovan McNabb in Washington last week. Plummer was benched by Shanahan in favor of rookie Jay Cutler in 2006. Plummer said his former coach looks for perfection from his quarterback, and ultimately, that Shanahan is chasing a ghost. Here’s some of what Plummer had to say:

“I had a coach that, regardless of how well I thought I was playing or how well the majority of fans across the country thought I was playing, it was never good enough for him," Plummer said. “And that kind of gets frustrating …It just seemed like every game I could have completed these four more passes or these five more shots here and it would have been perfect. And that just wasn't my personality... But Shanahan wanted perfection and he wore a lot of us down there."

“I think Shanahan is still searching for John Elway," Plummer said. "Somehow, someway, he thinks there's going to be another guy like John Elway … He coached a team to almost perfection [with Elway] so he wanted that again, he wanted that every time we went out there. It's just not realistic."

These words don’t surprise me. Plummer has been critical of Shanahan since his retirement and it was well known that Plummer left the game prematurely because he was disenchanted with Shanahan.

I always wondered what the deal was with Plummer.

Handball baby!

[rabb]

My thought is that Jake was replaced way too early by the Frown Cannon

I loved that guy
