EberKain Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Well seems like he was injured on the play.....In all honesty, he has not improved much on his last pre-season game in which we saw him praying on the sideline...hoping to catch something....anything.... maybe a cold even... He was praying because his mother was put in the hospital just before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 It's almost funny but while the fumble was the final straw today, it is his poor decision making skills that has me worried most. He was lucky to hang on to the ball earlier when chose not to call for a fair catch and got rocked seconds after the catch. Dude... What are you thinking? :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrfriedm Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 I say cut Brown, try to get Andre Dyson back, and have Moss return kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamSneed36 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Am I the only one pulling for this guy? Gibbs definitely gives people 2nd chances (see Brunell last year who had 9 lives). I want to see how Brown reacts to this - if he fumbles another or drops another, I'll all for getting him off the team. I want to see how AB reacts to this - maybe this is the turning point where he starts pulling himself together and starts concentrating on every ball.Portis fumbled too - it just bounced back into his hands thank God. Who wants to cut Portis - speak up. Yea I think we should see if he loses the game for us next week on Monday night against the cowboys, good idea! :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamSneed36 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 I say cut Brown, try to get Andre Dyson back, and have Moss return kicks. Id preferr Thrash and Betts, they did well last season and neither is our #1 WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr1 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 I'm thinking he's on a short leash, too...especially after today. In JG's news conference after the game, I got the distinct feeling he was going to make anyone who had a turnover very accountable...I think AB may lose some sleep this week.

The Sir Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 I wouldn't cut anybody the week before playing the Cowboys. They'll sign him and find out our whole playbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastsidestory5 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 I liked him alot last year. Hopefully he can step up and learn from his mistakes. I just want him to be successful.:2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkieSkin Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 This guy scares me every time he touches the ball. On punts he calls for a fair catch when he can run or catches it and get's killed and on kickoffs he holds the ball like a loaf of bread, (2nd half kick return). He cost us bigtime last year in the Dallas game when we had it wrapped up. He's fast but that's about it. What do you guys think. :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinstzar Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 He is still better than Chad Morton, who of course scored today. I also think we can't afford to put Moss back there. I think he is on thin ice though. Once Jacobs comes back, Thrash should get most of the return time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammino Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 They should swap antonio brown with taylor jacobs and put thrash back there for punt returns... more reliable.. not as explosive but we know there isnt going to be mistakes.. and put betts as the kick returner.

ironmic Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 The same thought crossed my mind when he fumbled. Brown almost single handidly cost us a football game. The defense would have pitched a shutout today if not for his mistake. He wasen't even hit hard on the play. It wouldn't shock me in the least to see the Skins cut Brown. There is no room for mistake makers on this team. Brown is a mistake waiting to happen. you are sooo correct my friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Listening to Gibbs press conference it was hard to tell what he was going to do. I didn't expect him to be specific anyway, but it appeared that he was not happy and if Danny says cut him Gibbs would cut him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Montana Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 It's almost funny but while the fumble was the final straw today, it is his poor decision making skills that has me worried most. He was lucky to hang on to the ball earlier when chose not to call for a fair catch and got rocked seconds after the catch. Dude... What are you thinking? :doh: So true. Gibbs should give this guy the axe for 3 reasons: 1) He has become a liability with his boneheaded mistakes, 2) We have players readily available that can do his job (Thrash, Betts), and 3) It would make an early season statement reinforcing that Gibbs is serious about accountability for turnovers.

DCdemolition Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 the dude almost lost us the game - if gibbs is as old school as people profess -- he should be gone. the defense would have posted a clear shutout despite that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallen5862 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 The Tennessee Titans Released wide receiver Troy Edwards; signed wide receiver Andrae Thurman from the practice squad. This was a couple hours before game time. Do we bring back Dyson or give Troy Edwards a tryout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaDRoc Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Thrash returns punts. Neither is a game breaker but both are sure handed. Jon I believe Moss would be returning punts if not Brown. He gets the 2nd most punt return reps in practice (I heard on 980 after the game). And yes, he is a game breaker. Just watch the Jets/Steelers playoff game last year.
