skinfan2k Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Im not talking about past years and but this year and what each LB can bring to the table among starters. Rocky has looked extra special this preseason and Fletcher is a beast in the middle and i am wondering if MW is our worst LB, but if this is true, we are in great shape for this upcoming season. MW doesn't have the speed like LF, or RM. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the burgundy and gold Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 i agree, i have really raelly high hopes for Rocky this year. I really liked the way he played this preseason and the way he played in the Giants game last year. I think he's gonna do really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GibbsFactor Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 If MW is our worst starting LB, we are in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSUskinfan Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 "MW doesn't have the speed like LF, or RM. What are your thoughts?" Don't worry about his speed. He should be quicker now; he's lost weight now that he has his braces off. :logo: Washington is a proven LB. It's up to Rocky to show that he can get it done now that he's the starter.

Touchdown Redskins Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 MW might be our best LB if he can get any pressure on the QB when he's lined up at DE. Everyone complains that we dont' get any pressure, but if he can step up that area of his game, our defense will be complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rook Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I'd rather talk about who will be our best. :helmet: The Rook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MW doesn't have the speed like LF, or RM. What are your thoughts? True because it's all relative. But it would kind of hard to judge that because they all have different roles. But like you said if MW is the worst, that's good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ucfSKINS Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 If he's healthy, he'll be the second best behind Fletcher. Again IF healthy, he can blitz from the line and provide some much needed pass rushing. But if injured, that changes everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorldBFree76 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I don't think he will be, but the linebackers look solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Even if Rocky is quicker, Marcus Washington has more experience, and I wouldn't doubt Washington's speed anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Washington will only be our worst linebacker if he continues to suffer injury problems that keep him below 100%. He can rush the passer, drop into coverage and come up and stop the run. None of the other linebackers we have are proven in all 3 areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsOrlando Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 If that turns out to be the case then our LB crew is going to be one of the top 5 in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rook Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Lets argue that then :laugh: Sounds good. I really expect each of the LB's to bring special skills to the party. At the end of the day, London's tackling brings him to the top. :helmet: The Rook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[[ghost]] Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Well, if your linebacking core is only as good as its worst LBer, and Washington is our Worst LBer, then we easily have a top 3 LB core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcarey032 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I don't think that he is our worst linebacker. I would probably state it more like of the three linebackers he is the weakest, but I think it would be unfair to even say that. Marcus Washington, is more of a pass rush guy. He has strengths and weaknesses as well as the other linebackers on the team. I am thankful we have him. He is a good player. My worry is the D-Line. I hope that they can step up and do something this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone complains that we dont' get any pressure, but if he can step up that area of his game, our defense will be complete. I dunno about having Marcus line up at DE anytime soon. That elbow can get injured again quicker. I hope they hold off on that for a while unless he feels a 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
