codeorama Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 ... then Stephen Davis will fumble the game away or just not be a factor at all. Every where I look, ESPN, the internet and even here on these boards, all I see is how stupid the Skins were for letting Davis go and How BAD he wants revenge. I know Davis is not publically saying this, but his teamates are. Sportscenter had a feature this morning about how the Skins were going to pay for letting him go and how there's no way he would miss this game. If the football gods have any heart what so ever, then Davis will not see his dream come true. He's having a great year, his team is bound for the playoffs, the football gods would just be evil to give him the satisfaction of having a huge day over the Skins who have struggled this year, most likey won't make the playoffs and have the entire media down on them. This should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red&BlueRivalry Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Prepare to become a jaded disbeliever. Injuries are the only thing that will keep Davis from gaining 100+ yards on that Washington defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 I think it's so funny how people feel sorry for Davis and think the Skins just discarded one of their best players for no apparent reason. The bottom line is the Redskins tried to get Davis to restructure his contract and he declined. Then he accepted less money in Carolina than he would have gotten had he restructured....poor Davis. How is that the Redskins' decision?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC4 Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 You know it's funny. It has always seemed to me that the more something in the NFL gets hyped before a game, the most it doesn't live up to all the hype. Let's hope this is one of those times............

freakofthesouth Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Good point Speed. So his motivation to 'show us what we gave up' is simply because we didn't give him the $$ that he wanted. That's bad karma if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 I would be interesting to see if Davis does fumble or get hurt.....then to see the ESPN spin on him being the best offseason move when he caused a loss. However, I think he'll have a solid game. Unless our LB's know something about the way he carries and can get the ball out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that the Redskins' decision?!? Good point, but Davis said on ESPN that if it was only about money he would still be a Redskin. He sure didn't seem to be very excited about taking less money when he was here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ax Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Funny we don't even get any credit for being one of only three teams even trying to sign him. Surely the Great and Powerful Oz (Parcells) should get some criticism for not trying to sign him. Shouldn't he? New England? Tampa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondie Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 1.) There is a GOD. 2.) I have been in touch. 3.)

jkam Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Injuries are the only thing that will keep Davis from gaining 100+ yards on that Washington defense. Or maybe a big lead which forces Jake to throw. Now wouldn't that be interesting. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Smoot will do his best Deion impersonation.... (A skinny cover corner taking Davis' legs out from under him in the backfield). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba9497 Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 it is just another excuse to bash the Redskins, by the media. The press didn't give the Skins a chance against the Seahawks.... I know this game will have the same results, so they will have to work a little harder to find a reason to trash the Skins next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Hog Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 The fact that we are being portrayed in the media as the evil villain in the Davis fiasco pisses me right the hell off. The media can say all they want about us having no interest in keeping SD, but the bottom line is that this guy had no desire to stick around in DC either. With that being said, how am I supposed to wish good things for SD? I hope we knock him off his a$$ all day and beat them good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Lets be honest there was never a chance that S Davis was gonna remain renegotiated contract or not. And I still remember some of you haters pining for tiki barber and look at him now S double and those on the jock of finesse football wanted a scat back like a Trung since we couldnt get a faulk type I am rooting for S Davis though I still want the skins to win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Davis wanted to leave, because of the type of offense that Spurrier was running. Whether the decision to hire Spurrier was right or wrong, no one player is above the team and Snyder did what he thought would help his team win. I would wish you guys luck agains the Panthers, but I'm a Cowboys fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
