Good for Heinike. He milked as much out of the NFL and his abilities as he could. Great story.

Gulbin does have a lot to live up to, wearing that number.

10 players have worn 66 since Jacoby. The last, of course, was the great Ricky Barber.

Thanks Tyler. You gave it your all. You are a overachiever and that's a huge compliment to anyone

 

[Riggo44]

Do we still have to refer to him as [REDACTED]?

The thing is, you can't retire all the numbers from the Gibbs Super Bowl era.

We won't have enough numbers to give out.

Who said all of them? Jacoby as far as I’m concerned is a hall of famer. Guess this explains why he’s not in if his own team doesn’t even think he’s worthy of having his jersey retired.

 

[Riggo44]

The problem with retiring offensive lineman numbers is they have to wear specific numbers: 50-79. If they retire Jacoby's number, they would have to retire Grimm, who is actually in the HOF, as well. I don't think too many teams retire OL numbers because of that.

 

[NickyJ]

Yeah,, I'm doubting that Jacoby is being kept out of the hall of fame because of the team assigning numbers to rookies.

Jacoby does belong in the hall of fame, but as I said, you can't retire everyone's number. They have already retired six numbers.

Besides, Riggins number should be retired before Jacobys.

They still use #66. They'll never use #44 again.

 

[Riggo44]

Riggins has to be next. That will be an event.

Not going to hijack this thread again but did anyone see the latest about Russini and Vrabel?

I think you just did. 🤣

Let it go man...sheesh

There is an 'NFL' forum and folks can either start threads there (that aren't Washington-related) or post in the 'Random NFL' thread. There is clearly interest in the Russini-Vrabel thing, it just doesn't belong anywhere in the 'Sons of Washington' forum.

The Harbaugh hype is going to continue to increase until we knock them on their ass in our first meeting

If media hype won any games the Cowboys would be champions every year

 

[Riggo44]

The Jets had 6 prime times games the year they had Aaron Rodgers for 3 snaps.

 

[burgold]

Not really a fan of primetime games. It's not just our record, but it wrecks their routine by creating short weeks. Tired players are more suceptible to injury. Then again, maybe I just don't look forward to staying up 'til midnight or getting home at two or three on a work night.

 

[Riggo44]

Kids today don't know what this was like. Rabid. Loud. No one wanted to play here. No one.

And we are getting it back.

Anybody want some sweet Commies t-shirts? Perfect price for some oil rags, and cheaper than sham-wows.
