redskins dump rob johnson and pick up the "other" hasselbeck...wtf?
i understand that rob johnson`s stock has gone down faster than monica lewinsky at the democratic convention,but,does this make any sense?.....

i understand that ramsey is their guy,but he`s getting the hell beat out of him every week...

so,spurrier dumps a veteran with a working knowledge of the redskin system and brings in an also-ran that will now have to learn the system....if ramsey does go down(and i bet he does in the next few weeks),the redskins are gonna be s.o.l.......

anybody understand this move?

Rob Johnson sucks. When the rush gets close to him he curls up in the fetal position. WHen he came in the other day, I circled my bet a winner.

I do agree that Ramsey will get killed if that line doesn't get better.

If Denver was smart they would sign this guy immediately...he is Jake Plumber with a better arm. He certainly has to be better than Kannell, I mean, how hard is it going to be to turn around and hand it off to Portis. Shoot, Denver should just snap the ball to him and put in another full back!

I agree, Rob could be a perfect fit. He is absolutely terrible in the pocket, but if you move him out of there on fakes and stuff, he will be very effective. He can run and pass on the run.
In the pocket he is absolutely horrible
