Deangelo Hall For Punt Returner!

Let Thrash run them. I love ARE but the East/West running aint working. He also does not want to hurt himself which I get. He sees himself as a receiver first.

Never really thought of Thrash before but it seems like a pretty good choice. Still, Hall would be more explosive. Either of these guys should replace El.

Why not try Hall? What's the worst that can happen? He fumbles one - like ARE did earlier this season.

ARE is average on PR. Perhaps Hall could do better than that and help our ST.

I brought up Thrash a month ago when we first started talking about this. He's done it before and does a pretty good job. He's more expendable than El, so why have'nt they done it? It makes to much sense and El wants to do punt returns.

put shaun on PR's since he doesnt contribute to the running game...

If ARE breaks one or two, you'll all be kissing his dancing shoes. :D

That would be funny seeing Shaun Alexander attempt to run back punts. I'd betcha, the Skins would lead the league in fair catches if Alexander, aka the Tip Toe Burglar, was back there.

Thrash isn't a bad idea at all. At least he can run in a straight line. He's not a threat to rip one for a TD, but he's not gonna fart around with all the dancing crap either.

I'd still like to see Hall give it a shot.

Every time I think about Hall returning punts, a picture flashes in my mind of him fumbling a punt in the state championship game and the other team scoring and costing us the championship. Thats probably been 7-8 years ago but it still pops into my mind. He definetly has the speed and he can take it all the way.

When was the last time El broke one for us? I only remember that one against the Colts in 2006. You can trot out his averages all you want but he is not a credible threat to take one to the house. He is not really anything more than adequate.

As for Hall, he is explosive, and given that he wasn't on the team last week I don't know how he can now be so important to us that he can't risk injury.


I was going to say that he (Hall) can actually catch the ball and make the pick...but then I remember our team can't do squat with those types of opportunities, so we might as well have him return punts.
