Czabe just reported that Kelly and Thomas have a combined 11 REC for 99 YDS through 5 games. Rookie Jeremy Maclin had over 140 YDS and two long TD's yesterday. Like I said earlier, time to see whether Marko Mitchell can make a play. I have no doubt that he would have caught the deep ball that Thomas dropped with the game on the line yesterday. I'm tired of hearing what beasts Kelly, Thomas and Fred Davis are in practice. Either put up on Sunday or SHUT UP!!!
The problem with our offense we dont go deep unless its a play action cause our O-Line did not give JC enough time to go deep. He was only taking 3 step drops. Thomas was the only deep pass all day. Maybe they should try to go deep early in ball games not at the end.

If DeSean Jackson, Macklin, or even Randy Moss for that matter were on the Skins with Campbell and this dreadful O-line, do u really think they would be having the same results.......ummmmm NO! Don't get me wrong talent has alot to do with it but the situation a team puts the player is huge. Put Kelly with say Peyton or Brees, he'd would most likely have 1 or 2 td's already.

Can someone explain to me why our WR's are not using the "Curl", and "Come back" routes? I see all the teams that have rookie WR's using them and getting the ball to their WR's yet we don't seem to use them and are not getting the ball to anyone not named Moss, Cooley or ARE.

Because our offense is only designed for posts and quick slants. Curls are not effective in college.

^Thank You. So in essence the reason our WR's don't use them is because most likely they didn't use them in college so they are not well trained in how to do this? I hope I read you right. and...not sure if it was a slam on Hixon but either way I liked it. ;)

D. thomas made a few catches sunday. They ran him on a slant & he made a nice catch in traffic. That should be a route that he can pull off w/his size. I know he didn't make the catch on the deep pass but hopefully, he's gaining some confidence.

Where is Marko Mitchell? I'd like to see him get some playing time.

Wouldn't we all!! Was talking about this at the Redskins bar watching the game. I think somsone said he isn't playing because he doesn't know the shorter routes. I am like aren't the coaches (hixon and others) supposed to be teaching him this. If not why are they here?

I think that Kelly could be OK, but Thomas frustrates me to no end. The guy last year gets a few really bad offensive push off penalties and lines up off sides. He is just not mentally in the game. You can't have someone like that who can't be in the game mentally out there and not produce for you team, let alone hurt its production. I would be all in favor in giving Mitchell a bump because what do we have to lose? The offense is near the bottom any way. Start putting in players who want it more because if I am Zorn you are going to be fired. Start replacing players who show that they want to play during practice and during the game if there are players who are making too many mistakes, you replace them. I think that is pretty simple. I don't think that there is anyone on this team who really can say that their job is safe.
