I'm tired of seeing Antwaan Randle-El doing a two-step every time he runs a punt return. The good punt returners, catch the ball and go straight up field and attack the on coming defenders. By running straight up field, they force the defenders to have to break down and prepare to make a tackle in either direction. When Randle-El does his two-step, the defender can go right at him and take him down. He is not making anyone miss and gaining very few yards after he fields the punt. Deangelo Hall was a very good punt returner for the Atlanta Falcons. I know he wants to make an impression on this team. What do you guys think about having him field some punts? Santana Moss showed that there are big plays to be made in the punt return. I don't like Moss back there because it increases his chances of getting injured and the Skins cannot afford to lose their best receiver.
