A Washington offense that has scored just nine touchdowns and 89 points in five games, two of which were defeats that followed a 2-0 start, suddenly has some serious issues up front heading to Carolina on Saturday.After starting the quintet of left tackle Trent Williams, left guard Kory Lichtensteiger, center Will Montgomery, right guard Chris Chester and right tackle Jammal Brown every week, the Redskins' longest such stretch of line continuity since 2008, coach Mike Shanahan, offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan and Nnamdi Asomugha Jersey line coach Chris Foerster are dealing with the loss of Lichtensteiger for the season with a torn ACL wholesale jerseys and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie Jersey Williams for a Jeff Saturday Jersey month or so with a Peyton Manning Jersey high ankle sprain.When Lichtensteiger and Leigh Bodden Jersey then Williams went down in the first half of last Sunday's 20-13 loss to Philadelphia, Sean Locklear, a right tackle for almost all of the previous eight seasons in Seattle, made his Washington debut at left tackle with Montgomery replacing Lichtensteiger at left guard and Erik Cook, a 2010 seventh-round draft choice, making his NFL debut at center.Brown, who came to Washington in June 2010, was suddenly the line's only starter who had been a Redskins regular last October. Montgomery was a backup until last November. Cook was John Kuhn Jersey on the practice squad most of last year. Chester signed as a free agent from Baltimore this July.The Redskins, who had rushed for 196 yards during their previous game at St. Louis, were stymied on the ground, managing just 42 yards on 14 carries.Brown, a two-time Pro Bowl left tackle with New Orleans, is willing to move there although he hasn't played the position since 2008 but that would disrupt the chemistry he has begun to forge with Chester. And while Montgomery is versatile, he hasn't started at left guard since 2007.It's not ideal, but ... we should be able to get the job done, Montgomery said. Erik's talented and he knows what he's doing. If there's a question, I'm there to help him out if he needs it. We just need to get a little cohesion together.Redskins coach Mike Shanahan said he hasn't made his choice yet for Sunday's game at Carolina but will announce it when Tom Brady Jersey the team returns to the practice field on Wednesday.Receivers Santana Moss and Jabar Gaffney and fullback Darrel Young all announced their support for incumbent Rex Grossman to remain the starting quarterback.And neither Grossman nor John Beck, who took over for the fourth quarter of Sunday's 20-13 loss to Philadelphia after the former had thrown four interceptions, was available for comment on Monday.That's the current state of the Redskins at the game's most important Michael Vick Jersey position.Shanahan is facing this dilemma because Grossman's turnover-prone ways returned in a big way against the desperate Eagles. Take away tight end Fred Davis' five catches and the 31-year-old Grossman connected as many times with the guys in green four as he did with any of his own targets.For the season, Grossman has thrown a league-high nine interceptions and lost two fumbles. During less than eight full games with Washington going back to last year, Grossman has coughed up the ball a whopping 19 times 13 interceptions, six fumbles. For his career, Grossman has lost 61 turnovers in 39 starts 46 picks, 15 fumbles.Grossman's photo should be in the football glossary Santana Moss Jersey next to the word turnover, but Moss, Washington's longtime No. 1 receiver, is adamant in his Jordy Nelson Jersey support.You just can't give up on somebody because he had a bad outing, Moss said. I feel like he deserves another shot. Philadelphia's Michael Vick threw four picks last week. New England's Tom Brady threw four picks two weeks ago.Lumping the incomparably athletic Vick, the leading career rusher among quarterbacks, and the nearly-peerless Brady, the only quarterback aside from Joe Montana to win multiple MVP awards and multiple Super Bowl titles, with Grossman and his passer ratings of 66.5 this Ryan Torain Jersey season the lowest for a current starter and 70.4 for his career is a stretch at best.We'll play the guy who gives the best chance to win based on practices, games and our gut, Shanahan said.Copyright C 2011 The Matt Forte Jersey Sports Xchange.

Schwartz tries to put post-game antics behind him
In the aftermath of his post-game dust-up with 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, Schwartz was contrite but not apologetic. It is unfortunate that the events after the game overshadowed the fact that it was probably one of the best football games of the day yesterday between two teams that are 5-1 in the NFC; two young and improving teams, he said. The game is played by players on the field. We don't want things like that to occur but there are competitive people in this league. We need to do a better job of leaving it to the players on the field. Asked directly if Ray Rice Jersey he wanted to offer a public apology, Schwartz said only, It's a regrettable situation, particularly the fact that it detracted from what happened in the game. Schwartz spoke to league officials on Monday and gave his version of the story. Harbaugh did the same. The league could rule on any fines or other disciplinary action as early as Wednesday.The players completely had their coach's back on this one. He's passionate about the game. I will say that, and I like that about him, wide receiver Nate Burleson said. We're an emotional team. We go as our head coach goes. I think how we've been playing is a direct reflection of Jim and that's been pretty good for us so far.Schwartz was pretty blunt on his assessment of quarterback matthew Stafford's performance Sunday. Not one of Matt's better games, for sure, he said. He said the receivers needed to do a better job of getting open and the protection could have been a lot better, but there were plays to be made that weren't. There were times that he had to bail away and make throws, Schwartz said. That's going Lance Briggs Jersey to happen. It doesn't mean you can't still make plays. But there were also times he didn't need to bail away, where he needed to step up into the pocket and make some throws.Copyright C 2011 The Sports Xchange. All Rights Reserved.
