Maybe it's the development curve of Jason Campbell, but usually a team knows whether or not this combination of QB and receivers are going to work out. Year two should be when things begin to take off.
How ironic that after hearing that no wide receiver on the team has caught a touchdown yet, the one who finally does is way down the depth chart (and true to form for 2007, is probably gone for a long time due to injury).

By far and large it has been a disaster, but ARE has been pretty damned effective when he's been healthy. And let's not forget that he was stopped on the 1, what, 3 or 4 times? The whole "no TD's to WR" stat is a little misleading there, and if our goal line run game was the slam dunk it should have been, you'd be reading about how dominant our RB's are.
As I have been saying for some time, I do think something isn't right with Moss. Lloyd isn't even worth discussing because he's poison on and off the field. ARE is worth the money we paid him, IMO, and I don't want to see him go anywhere.
