Mania Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 This post. . .. . .got me thinking. Suppose the Redskins asked YOU to suit up for one game for kick-off coverage duty. Would you do it? Would the risk of extreme pain and potential injury prevent you from serving as a wedge-buster on Danny Smith's coverage team? Or would you decline knowing your lack of NFL-caliber skill would be a liability to your beloved Skins. Would you take the field for one Sunday afternoon? I'm only 5'3" 150 and would do it in a heartbeat, just call me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasimpson Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I'd do it, but it will never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMK9973 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hell yes! In fact - I almost was a redskin! The only that that stoped me was my Size, Speed, and talent.... Other then that - I was there baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrfriedm Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I would do it, without even thinking. Of course, after the first play if I was still able to walk off the field, I would probably have to go change my shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooley4President Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Kickoff coverage hurt in high school, I can only imagine what it would be like in the NFL. Of course I'd do it, but only because I know I'd only have to survive for one game at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKSkinsFan Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I think some people saying they would, would change their mind after seeing any of those huge mofos close up yelling and screaming how badly they want to demolish you.

CBass1724 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Sign me up for wedge buster and 1 weeks worth of salary for the avg NFL player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hell yeah I would do it. I played ball in HS so I am sure I could still cover a kick. I am sure it would be way fast, but I would love every second of it. Yes, I am not afraid of any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piledriven Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I would go out there....and I would BUST the wedge Caveman style! They won't stop me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor 36 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 If they thought I was good enough and wanted me, sure I would. The chance of a lifetime' I wouldn't miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan T. Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 If they thought I was good enough and wanted me, sure I would. The chance of a lifetime' I wouldn't miss it. So in essence you're saying you wouldn't, because they don't think you're good enough and they don't want you (or any of the other 60,000 ES'ers who aren't already Redskins). Being good enough isn't part of this particular fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely do it for the thrill plus the one week's NFL minimum. As another poster said, the play would be over before I got to the 50 anyway. If someone hit me late, I will have been responsible for getting the 'Skins 15 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailYeah Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 If it was pregame and it didnt count. Othewise I'd be a liability to the team. And yes....I would get destroyed and probably never walk again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stat2883 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I'll be the big, slow possession receiver (6'3" 215) and get absolutely lit up the first time I run a route or try to block someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dictator Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Yea Id definitely do it...Im 6'5 and weigh nothing but Im pretty sure If I just ran deep routes and Campbell heaved a few up to me I might come down with one...I damn sure wouldnt go over the middle though and Id only run to the end zone so I know I wouldnt have to run anymore after making the catch. It's always easy to spot those who don't read the initial post.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
