Competition at Guard is Laughable
The Washington Redskins lost right guard Randy Thomas for the year as he suffered a season ending injury in the win against the Saint Louis Rams.
The way they are going about to replace Thomas is just purely laughable.
According to the Washington Post, Redskins head coach Jim Zorn announced that guard Chris Rinehart and guard/center Will Montgomery will compete for the job.
The player that should replace Thomas is the player that practiced all through training camp at that position.
Having a competition at this point in the season is just plain stupid as it limits the number of snaps the starter will take throughout the week during practice.
What it will do is not allow the starter to develop the communication and the chemistry that is needed for an offensive line to get the job done.
In the end if Zorn keeps pulling moves like this he will find himselg poop canned.
