Other than RG3 and the first team defense, I think this is the kid I'm most excited about seeing tomorrow night.

Mike Jones Mike Jones ‏@MikeJonesWaPo

Haslett on Jarvis Jenkins: He saw lot of struggles in OTAs, but "the last three days, he's looked like himself last year."

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen

Jim Haslett thinks DeAngelo Hall's abaility to blitz & skills at getting to the QB and attacking the FB will benefit from being in the slot.

Chris Russell ‏@Russellmania980

Haslett on Jarvis "I thought at the start of camp, he kinda started that way. To me, the last 3 days, he's looked like himself last year."

Grant Paulsen Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen

Haslett said Josh Wilson was playing "off of feel" last year, signed after lockout and then got hurt. "He looks so much more comfortable."

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen

Haslett mentioned the #Steelers ranked 25th, 13th and 3rd in their first three years in the 3-4. #Redskins ranked 31st, 13th last two years.

Ike Hilliard on @HankTime85: "Hank is deceiving for his size. He does an excellent job getting in and out of his breaks." #Redskins

Ike Hilliard said he asked Brandon Banks if he wanted to play at WR when he was first hired. Banks said, "Guess you didn't check my resume."

Haha, glad to see you fixed your math. I thought I'd missed something and wouldn't be able to see the game because I'd be at work!

I had 20.5 at first haha. Good thing i am working in finance right? And people wonder why the economy is down....

If twitter is any indication, damn near every fan of every other NFL team hates RG3 lol :ols:...overhyped, "too many commercials", tired of seeing him, "looks gay", one person even said "I can't wait to see RG3 get injured :)"...yes, with a smile face afterwards.

I love hearing this. That means teams are going to hopefully hate the redskins. And if they hate us, that means we are winning. I have heard for too long from people inside and outside the NFC East "Oh the redskins? I dont mind them". Forget that, i want them to hate us, loathe us, be scared of us.

Love that Banks is killing it....would prefer to have Danny Smith stay less involved in his play all together

Yep, glad to see Banks is giving a big "F YOU" to all the haters here who want to see him cut so a ham sandwich could take his place.

Go on with your bad self BB!! Prove them all wrong, like you have for the last 2 years.
