Time for a New Wide Receiver (Or Two)
okay so after seeing devin thomas, or was it malcolm kelly? i forget..i think devin...miss that catch that could have won us the game yesterday are you guys ready to call him a bust? i always put the two second round receivers we drafted together in my thinking, and i consider them both a bust as of now. the problem is they've assumed a large role in our offense and our offense can't get going because they suck. so were left with cooley (the man, i say our best player this year), and moss (number 2 or 3 on many teams) and randle el (ehhhh). thats our receiving core. why do we talk about all the talent we have on the offensive end...thats not really talent to me...
so then i wonder why snyder hasnt hooked us up with a ridiculous high payed receiver yet like he does at every other position...then i remember the brandon lloyd fiasco and i think snyder really didnt want to look that stupid again at that position. so for once he drafted guys to fill in starting sports on offense, and theyve both proven to be busts.
so what now? really, wide receiver is a huge problem for us and no one ever wants to acknowedge it. now im gonna say something and all you guys can hate on me, but im gonna come out and say it. theres a certain wide receiver right now on a 1-4 team with a one year contract there whos not getting catches and who wants catches. hes played on two teams in our division during his career, and piled on yardage vesus us before. he plays in buffalo.
with a potential lack of salary cap next season snyder's redskins potentially become steinbrenner's yankees (even though we kind of already were considered the yankees of the nfl)...but we can pay TO what he asks, and he can come here and catch balls. substitue TO in for devin thomas and then look at our starting lineup. now thats scary.
now i know all you guys are gonna say oh he kills a lockeroom, oh hes an infection, never on our team. well guess what...our team is disgracefully disfunctional this season, the media is going crazy about our issues, our players are getting frustrated, and we just brought in a guy who zorn knows is gonna take over the play calling soon (probably after the cheifs beat us this week). HOW MUCH WORSE CAN IT GET? hell at this point id WELCOME disfunction if it was about a player wanting the ball more as opposed to all this whens zorn gonna get fired? whens campbell gonna get benched? is cp mad yet? bs. santana and randle el are soooo lax, I WANT A GUY SAYING GIVE ME THE BALL. i mean of all the positions do not go crazy with spending danny picks wide receiver...it doesnt make sense to me. also, i think TO would LOVE to play against philly, and especially play against dallas, twice a year.
dismiss this idea if youd like, but just think about it a little bit first.
Our Secondary
Don't you guys think the secondary is really our biggest issue right now? It seemed like every detroit first down came on a third down play...with stafford picking us upart and running around smiling like an asshole...campbell throws for 350 and we lose. every third down it seemed we gave up a first down pass and it just seems so unlike our D. and it like kept me encouraged throughout detroit drives...me thinking okay heres another 3rd and long, we'll stop them this time...like the D was teasing me
