laron landry's season is over. he'll be placed on i.r. now the larger question is what about his career? his torn left achille's tendon is not torn but bad enough to shut him down for the season and the specialist recommended offseason surgery. landry will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season. if he were healthy, the no. 6 overall selection in '07 would expect a big payday. now the redskins and other teams, for that matter, will have to rethink showing the money to a defensive back that has missed 12 games over the last two seasons. >> i talked to laron earlier today and he felt that it was quite sore. he's been trying to push it trying to get back over the last couple weeks and naught it was in his best interest -- thought it was in his best interest to go on i.r. and usually what's in a player's best interest is within our best interest and so we're going to put him on i.r. and hopefully he can get that thing well. >>> thursday night football matt ryan and the falcons facing the jags, 2nd quarter atlanta up 17-0. ryan

too bad they will be missing laron landry, the fifth game he's missed this season. the patriots will be the best offense the redskins face all season long, second in the nfl in total offense averaging over 30 points per game. they are led by future hall of fame quarterback tom brady whose favorite target is that man, wes welker, who happens to be the nfl's leading wide receiver. then add in ron gronkowski who is one touchdown shy of setting a record for a tight end. >> their defense in a not do very well, but they have an offense that can put points on the board and do a lot of good things to where they can go out there and give up 40 points and their offense will have brady's back. so we have to do a good job all around as far as offense, defense and special teams to kind of corral this team and kind of bring this swagger down a little bit. >> tomorrow will be the 112th meeting between army and navy. the series has been one-sided with navy winning the last nine meetings including last year's 31-17 victory. this year the game is at fedex field for the very first tim
