BG Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 The worst part about this is that we are losing a "true" Redskin, when we need him the most. We've got some young guys, rookies and new veterens, but not many tried and true Redskins like Jansen. Losing someone who has been loyal, with great character, good PR status and is opne of the best at his position is HUGE. You could tell from the way Gibbs spoke of it that it is a big blow, but that is football and why we drueled over Gibbs' return, because he will make a great change/addition and find a way to make it work. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurent Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 You guys need to chill with this doom and gloom crap. We're far from screwed. Jansen is just one guy and he's isn't going to make or break our season by himself. We have a great coaching staff and enough depth along the line to compensate for Jansens loss.

jrfriedm Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 This is really upsetting me. I hope that those of you are saying this won't be that bad, or that big of a deal, are right. I just know that there is no way that we can replace everthing we lost, when we lost Jansen. Is this a career ending injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahsdad Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 What about the O lineman that was recently cut by the cardinals we might pick up some extra depth?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more. Look, Winey played pretty good last year and Bugel can get them in shape. Fact is, we have no choice, we have to adjust and compensate. Besides, we have a month to get the new RT coordinating with the rest. Fact is, they need to use this to strenghten their resolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom [Giants fan] Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 While injuries like this appear to have no recovery, I think you guys should have faith. This isn't Spurrier coaching the Skins this year. Gibbs and company will plug that Tackle spot with a more than capable replacement. And here is to no more injuries.

spm Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Jansen's loss sucks, but it's not that big of a deal. We have plenty of options (Winey, K. Walker, Dockery, and the two rookies). Out of that group, I believe someone will stand up as a solid NFL starter. Plus, we have all available FAs if the coaching staff feels the present roster is not capable. In the end, we're probably trading a near pro bowl RT for an average/solid NFL tackle. It's better that this happens at RT than at QB or TB. With our coaching staff, I think we will be just fine.

Is this a career ending injury? A lot of things would have to go wrong during Jansens surgery and recovery for this injury to be career threatening. Don't get me wrong, those kind of injuries are no joke, but Jansen is still young enough to come back from this injury and be the same guy that he was before.

method man Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 i dont think dockery will start at RT because he is a lil too slow. a radical trade idea would be trading taylor jacobs and a no. 4 to the chargers for roman oben. oben is a DC area guy so i think he would love to play for gibbs. but i think k. jones will be ok at RT. he played that position for the patriots a couple years ago as a starter.

Jeez, are we really desperate enough where have to start throwing away draft picks for marginal players? I don't care where the hell Oben is from, I'd rather see us develop some of our own guys.

Mr. S Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 ok, we still got Samuels, Dockery, Raymer/Friedman, and Thomas(recover soon man). Jansen is hopefully not out the whole season, but it looks bad from the reports. Now, Winey filled in nicely for Samuels last year, give him a shot. Also, Kenyatta Jones, why not try him as well. Bill Ferrario may have before been camp fodder, I think he's a guard, but can he play? If all else fails, Wilson and Molinaro, whats wrong with trying a rookie there? The main problem I see is that if Brunell is the starter (I cant decide with that game), then the LT is more important. However, we still have depth at the line, and Bugel is coaching them. Move Rasby over to the left more and help block there, hes a great blocker. Hopefully we will be fine, but im gonna miss Jansen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffman Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Yes, we have the talent....Jansen is a big loss, we all see that...but people are getting down so fast.....When you lose someone, don't just fall apart...the test of this team is the see if they can regroup from all of this....and I Know they will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskns21 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 This is one of those injuries, while bad and a real bummer, isn't going to make a major difference. I do believe that some of the negative sentiment here has to do with the "Oh NO not AGAIN" mentality. I believe that we'll find a solution to this whether it be Winey, Jones or Thomas, I really believe that this is one of the only major players that we could lose and still be OK. Had it been CP or Coles, I'd be a bit more bummed. Never fear, we'll be OK. We will work through it. Here's to a full and speedy recovery for a real CLASS REDSKIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
