Re: Redskins Offense: What's the Problem?

I think the issues with our offense run pretty deep but basically stem from the performance and depth of our offensive line in pass protection (it's hard to argue with their effectiveness running the ball throughout the season).

I believe we have two outstanding pass protecting linemen when healthy: Randy Thomas and Chris Samuels. We have two solid lineman in Rabach and Kendall and one sub-par lineman in John Jansen.

I believe Samuels is not healthy however so I think at the ends, which is where a great deal of pressure is coming from, we are pretty much sub-par. I think you can mask this weakness against average defenses but we have been exploited against two of the two pass rushing defenses in the league. It's as simple as that.

We'll continue to be fine (I believe) against average pass rushes but until we get a star at right tackle and left guard and get Samuels healthy, we'll continue to see Campbell hurt by top-tier defenses.
