Win autographed Kicks and Gloves

I want to take some time out to talk about Monday night’s game and the great Redskins fans. Monday Night Football is always exciting. Growing up, every player dreams of playing on MNF. Hearing the theme song “dun dun dun duh” fires you up even more. I thought I played well my first time back in the starting lineup so that was a plus for me, but I wish I could have a made a couple more plays and created a turnover. These past couple of weeks have been rough. I am not really concerned whether I get the start or not - I just want to play. There have been some games where I had one play on defense and there have been some games I had 58 plays on defense without starting. It’s just one of the things you go through as a player. I am still young, still learning and I’m doing what ever it takes to show the coaches that I belong out there.

Playing at home is great because the players can feed off the energy of the fans. I just wish we could have delivered a W to them. One of the best things about being a Redskin is the unconditional support from the best fans in the NFL. We are thankful and appreciative for their support despite how the season is going. We are having some rough times right now, but we are going to get out of it and I appreciate the fans sticking with us.

As you know I am giving away a pair of game worn autographed gloves and cleats this week. To win them, you need to find the answers to last week’s and this week’s questions. Submit the answers to info@predator48.com. The first person to get both questions right will win the prize.

This week’s question:

When I was growing up what was my favorite NFL team?

Hint: read my blogs from last season

Good Luck!

Controversy About My Predator48.com Blog

First of all I want to apologize to my coach, my teammates and my fans for the recent blog that was posted on www.predator48.com. I held a contest during the preseason where a fan could win the chance to become the official blogger for my website. I held this contest because I wanted to create some more fan interaction and give a cool opportunity to a Redskins fan. Up until this post, our blogger Matt had done an excellent job, but as soon as I found out Matt had made some comments that were negative in nature about my coach and some of my teammates, I had it taken down immediately. I don’t promote or agree with what was stated in the blog.

I understand that what is posted on my site is a reflection of me and I can assure you this won’t happen again. I’m a positive, upbeat, team oriented person and that is what I expect for anything that goes on my website. Go Redskins!

UCLA & Question 2

YB what up? As you all know I am a Bruin so I got to talk about my team. I am extremely excited to see my team at 3-0 the first time since 2005!! They are out having fun, competing each week and it has been fun to watch them . The secondary has been balling out especially Rahim Moore 5 picks in two games RIDICULOUS!! I still text a bunch of guys on the team during the week and before the games on Saturday so it is awesome to see them doing great.

I just want to let my boys know that I am watching them, keep grinding and good luck!

On to the Redskins… Man that game was ugly but I was happy to come out with a win. I have been asked a couple of times about the play when I forced a fumble and whether or not I was trying to knock the ball out. The truth is I was just coming inside out trying to make a play and I happened to get my head on the ball. I didn’t realize that I forced a fumble until I heard everyone screaming. It was an awesome play and I am happy I took that opportunity to score away from them.

I just posted a new video with my 2nd question to the contest. Next week I am giving away a signed shirt so find all of the answers to my questions on my YardBarker blog or www.Predator48.com. Remember to keep track of all the answers (in order) and submit them to info@predator48.com when I tell you to! Full contest details here.
