Thread: Fred Smoot Looking Good

i was watching the redskins ravens srcimmage an fred smoot looked good.. he picked off McNair 2 times.. an swatted some passes. an actually hit someone..

where was this when he was with minnesota..???

For what he costed us, and how he performed on the field, I am glad he's gone.

Yesterday it said Charles Gordon and Cedric Griffin each had a pick themselves. I think we are better off without Smoot.

But yeah, it's because he's playing really hard to impress his new/old team. He'll wear off in a few weeks.

WTF!!! he pisses me off. last year he played 5 yrds of his man and now he is actually playing defense, picking off balls, and tackling players come on.

Jeez I know how he performed here was not how he played in washington. The first time I was hoping that kinda play would have been happening here. well maybe it was the scheme, or coaching I would say the talent around him in that secondary just overshadowed him and he couldn't keep pace with Winfield,Sharper,Smith,Griffin and Blue.

I don't know. I want to blame Smoot, and I usually do, but if the play calling was designed to have him play off, then that's the coaches fault.

He played 5 yards off from his man, just like Winfield did.
It was the scheme.

Smoot is not a bad player.
He did not fit our defense, and he was overpaid.
But he was not a bad player.

LMAO.
Talk about selective listening.
Three different people posted after your first post and mentioned that the coach and scheme probably had something to do with it.
But you don't reply until someone agrees wth you,..

To be more specific, Cottrell & Tomlin.


They intentionally had all our DB's playing off their man.
