08:04 AM ET 08.27 | Among a list of players who must impress this weekend is Albert Haynesworth. Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan has said that Haynesworth will play end and nose tackle against the Jets' dominant offensive line. However, he will not start with the first team, as Shanahan is still trying to make sure that Haynesworth is in game shape by the time the season starts. It would behoove Mr. Haynesworth to look good against the first-teamers as often as he is able, and to blow up the second team later in the game. Anything less will add yet more drama to a situation that everybody's already tired of following.

He doesn't have to prove a thing to me. I believe I have a good idea of where he fits in the scheme of the world as we know it.

He'll be on the field as a starter...will he be effective? It's not that difficult to move a tub of lard.

Fat Albert needs to shut it and start doing what Shanahan wants. Big dummy.

Mangold is gonna school this dummy.

The only thing Haynesworth has proven so far is that he's JaCarcass Russell without the strong arm.

I want to see Mangold pancake him repeatedly.

He's also proven, he's a Dink.

"Mike Shanahan has said that Haynesworth will play end and nose tackle against the Jets' dominant offensive line. Shanahan has also said that, while Haynesworth will not start with the first team, he will take the entire group out to dinner at Beefsteak Charlie's, where he's expected to make the restaurant say 'uncle' repeatedly."

If a Haynesworth falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

What do you think caused that 3.6 earthquake in DC earlier this summer?

no, but you will feel the shockwave from the impact.

I am so glad the Redskins hired Shanahan. That very easily could have been Jerry Jones' screw up instead of Dans'. If he couldn't get it done in Denver why would anyone think he could get it done in the NFC East.

August 27, 2010  08:53 AM ET

I think it's "Haynesworth has a lot to LOSE."

Both literally and figuratively.
