MonkTotheHall Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 It's great to see LeVar think that way. But i wonder why coach williams hasn't used him in more packages. I mean holdman is good and all but Levar brings this thing to the table that is hard to find. I just get excited wondering how it would of been if our starting linebacker were levar, Pierce, and washington. But Greg is all about system and his system is the only thing that has been working since last year. So if he isn't using levar alot there is a reason. And Sean Taylor might become better than Ken Houston in a couple years. What a great hit on 3rd down. if it wasn't for that the game would be over. ( cant wait for levar to end a another cowboy quaterbacks career) Levar is a true redskins.:point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timurchin Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Lavar isn't meant to play DE and I'm real curious as to why he didn't get more playing time. I was surprised at the way the game went we started off blitzing and then went into containment for the rest of the game. On 3rd downs our corners played way off of the line of scrimmage and Dallas burned us on alot of 3rd down conversions because are D played soft. I can't understand why we didn't get more pressure on the QB. Nevertheless, the D dids it's job. ST made a monster hit at the end of the game but he also cost us a TD. P.S. Did anybody figure out how Brunell kept the horseshoe that was imbedded in him from showing through his uniform ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I was listening to the Sports Junky's on WJFK on my way into work today and they seem to think that Washington is going to "Phase him out" and the first chance they get, deal him to another team to get some cap relief. I sincerely hope this is not the case, Ive been wondering what ANDY thinks about all this. Did anyone else hear the show this morning/ early afternoon?

CHUBAKAH Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 But i wonder why coach williams hasn't used him in more packages. I think Greg said it best when he said that players that missed a lot of pratice in pre-season will be brought along a little slower. I'd bet the better he plays each game, the more he will be brought in. I did see him in on the very first play of the game, and in and out the rest of the night. I don't think he got mentioned much, if at all. I know one play I screamed his name as he over persued Bledso, and missed him by 10 feet. He'll be back!

Walking Deadman Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Lavar was actually in the 1st play and was the guy who tackled Jones......it was one of his rare tackles in the night. Gotta work on that pass rush, Bledsoe had way too much time to throw that ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasta028 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Hey guys, I'm new to the site but I hope Lavar isn't hurt again, we need a healthy Arrington out there whipping some butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamSneed36 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 The Junkies are dumbasses, but they were saying he wasnt in very much, and that he may be gettin phased out all together. Any chance the Bengles would trade chad johnson for LaVar and Patten? Thatd be bad ass. I also noticed a couple times LaVar lining up to go inside ona rush, and ignoring Marshall when he tried to push him to the outside repeatedly. He still wants to do his thing. He may be gone, we can do it without him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mando81 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 What's up with Arrington? Is he injured or just not playing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdeichert2636 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 He's playing, I mostly see him out there as a blitzer on 3rd downs. He'll come out of the woodwork this season and remerge as a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smack500 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Im not so sure about arrington anymore. Not only does he have a problem with injuries he has said that injuries has changed his way of playing, as in he says he wont be as aggresive anymore (take it easy). Im not saying hes a bad player. Im just thinking we might not see arrington at his highest level of play again, until I see different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLiverpool Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Honestly, I think he's still rusty.. think how long its been.. he'll get his, eventually.. I think he'll feed off the energy of the defense and help where he can.. right now he needs to get some sacks.. that's where he's used the most.. it'd be interesting to see him at end and Clemons behind him.. just for sheer speed..

Kosher Ham Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Does anyone else think that LaVar may feel that with the success of the D over the past 18 games, his role as a leader and playmaker may have diminished ? The new incentives in his contract have him making the probowl twice in the next 3 years. Him not playing as much definitely effects that clause.

brooksfb Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 On the premise that the coach puts the best players on the field, its possible that you're witnessing his new role. Every local reporter asks the same question and coach gracefully sidesteps the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinzelwashington Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 they are being very cautious with lavar... take him in slowly, was unhappy about how redskins dr treated him last yr and had to go thru another operation..believe me. he'll be ready for the big games against eagles, eagles and cincinati. count on that..

Art Monk Fan Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 It's ironic actually. Last year he was qouted in the press saying he couldn't wait to get back in, then criticized the team for "rushing" him back and reinjuring his knee. So here we are taking it slow and cautious and he's chafing to get back in. Does anyone else think Gregg might be forcing Lavar to live with the consequences of his own words/actions this off season? It's not like the D or the team are suffering, and he'll eventually get back in good graces, but Lavar's getting exactly what he asked for: caution and care in his return.

FinSkin Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Does anyone know what is going on with LaVar Arrington? I do not remember seeing him play Monday night. All help appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I would imagine he's still getting over his injury. Either that or Gregg Williams is pleased with the play of Warrick Holdman and Lavar has to earn his spot back. He'll play at some point. We can't afford to pay him that much just to sit on the bench.

elpredskinsfan Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I had that same question. I would't think a guy of calibur would not have to win his job back. They must just being cautious wtih his rehab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimFolk Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 This team did alot last year without him. And he is coming off a major injury they shouldn't rush him back in there just because he think he feels good. He'll get more pt as the year goes on, but I don't think he'll be a regular starter until next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
