Vanguard Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 He plays so hard. Full of energy and emotion. I'm almost never surprised when he makes a big play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumplestilskin Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 DJ is entering ST ability. Maybe not as intimidating but game changer magic is happening this year. With the cotton sleeves and mask tape number 36 is on fire like his hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan212689 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 He’s definitely our best safety since ST21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyfan1993 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 4 INTs this season. That should be at least an interception away from being tied for INTs on the season in the nfl right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy Yoda Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hes the leader of the secondary and having just an insanely productive season. Supremely athletic (not foot speed, but how snappy he is at diving towards tipped balls and making the play) and almost always in the best position he can be in.

COWBOY-KILLA- Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 He is Balling!!! Deserves mad respect. Playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Right now the dude is just straight up balling. That first pick today was masterful. His rah-rah routine rang a bit hollow in the past when the secondary was making the blooper reel at times. But it’s clear as day that right now he is the leader of the defense and brings that nasty to the whole unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgundyMalaise Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I had a feeling he would be a big player for us when we signed him. Last year, he was vulnerable in coverage a bit but still created turnovers. I wanted him bad in that draft we chose Amerson as our first pick. I wasn't thrilled with Amerson's selection but we rolling now with a matured version of the guy who was a beast in college. HTTR. Swearinger, Peterson and the two trenches won us this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander -JB- Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Redskins haven’t had a position player on offense or defense be a first team all-pro since 1992 Wilber Marshall. Reggie Roby as punter in 94, Brian Mitchell in 95 was special teams All-Pro and Matt Turk as long snapper in 96. Swearinger is worthy of first team All-Pro thus far.

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 NBC Sports has a great article on him, along with video, a "mini-documentary" He talks about his love for Sean Taylor, long before DJS was a Skin. He was born to be a Skin. And I like that he's staying humble and level-headed, despite the success. Skins of the past, whenever they start to taste a small bit of success, would prematurely get unrealistically over-confident, then slack off, then crash. But DJS, despite the defense's success, isn't ready to crown themselves, until they physically hoist that Lombardi in real time, and put in the necessary work to get there. "We leading, but we haven't won the division, we haven't won the championship, we haven't won the Super Bowl," he said. "We just getting started. We just turning the stove on, man. We ain't even put the grease in yet." DJ Swearinger feels very disrespected, which is what's fueling his incredible 2018 season https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/dj-swearinger-feels-very-disrespected-which-whats-fueling-his-incredible-2018-season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Jedi Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 DJ is absolutely playing like the best safety in the league right now. Next best safety? Don’t even know, don’t care. Significant drop off. Probably Harrison Smith or some **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Just checked the nfl 2018 season stats, and it appears that DJ Swearinger is in fact leading the league in interceptions with 4. There are 14 guys with 3 interceptions. 2 guys on the patriots could do have a chance to tie DJ if either one gets 2 interceptions later tonight, and 1 guy on the bills has a chance if he gets two interceptions (also playing tonight). But if not, then DJ will be in the league lead for interceptions going into week 9 just thought that was a cool fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Idk if I can prove it, but I'm sure there are posts of mine in the 2013 draft thread expressing frustration that we didn't pick up Swearinger. I'm really happy that he found his way here eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting they were brothers and Dan snapped to Matt for the Redskins during 1995-1999. And Matt went to 3 pro bowls in a row during that span if I'm right.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Not sure if this is news or not but this morning Galdi and Smoot were saying it may not be out there, but they’ve heard from folks at Redskins Park that apparently there was beef between DJ and Norman. It got squashed after the Saints debacle. Just found that strange given that I remember hearing about how they grew up playing ball together and were excited to be on the same team.

DJHJR86 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 DJ is the heart and soul of this defense. He's been a monster all year, and I largely credit him for the turnaround after the Saints game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bird_1972 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Swearinger has been a great vocal leader since he arrived. This year, his play is matching his leadership. We are very lucky to have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
