Polumbus, Pashos and Trueblood - Hair Stylists to the Stars.

Definitely a TV show in there somewhere.

Tyler Polumbus - T - Redskins

Sources tell the Washington Post that coach Mike Shanahan views RT Tyler Polumbus as "his guy."

Polumbus started 15 games last season and the Redskins led the NFL in rushing, but he graded out 77th among 80 qualifying tackles per PFF. Only Gabe Carimi, D'Anthony Batiste and Michael Harris were worse in pass protection. Still, Polumbus will enter camp as the starter ahead of newcomers Jeremy Trueblood and Tom Compton. This was the first offseason in his career he's been completely devoted to the right tackle spot.

1. Mike has to say that. He has to instill confidence in his players. He can't go out there and say that this guy was crap last year, and no amount of film study or dedication will help him. LMAO

2. He's made it known that Tyler better improve by acquiring his potential replacements.

3. I hope that Tyler does improve, just to keep cohesion and chemistry of the line.

That only shows how little these ratings mean. You don't lead the league in rushing with the 77th best OT starting.

2 things.

1. As a UNIT they ranked that high.
2. And as you've already pointed out, they ranked highly in rushing only.

I don't have #'s handy, but pass pro wasn't all that bad.

That's because RGIII got the ball out so quick most of the time and he was the least blitzed QB in the league. But PFF obviously has numbers to back their ranking up.

Just because someone publishes numbers doesn't necessarilly mean they have anything to back it up. I'm not saying Polumbus belonged in the Pro Bowl, only that, based om results, there weren't 76 OT's in the league better than he was last year.

As a group it wasn't, Tyler was terrible. Tyler was the reason for most of RGIII's hits in the pocket.
