Well, to be fair he did put one on the ground last week. Along with every other player on both teams.

I'd like to see young Shanny try to get Banks 3-5 touches a game on offense. The little man is a revelation.

Couldn't hurt. If anything, those quick screens don't put too much pressure on the O-line to hold blocks.

Should have had 2 TD's today if not for those penalties. On another theme, if Austin is promoted I feel our WR corp could get better.

Brandon Banks is hungry after not getting drafted out of Kansas State, where he was 1 of the top KR in the NCAA. How do these so called pro scouts let this guy go undrafted. Banks is our biggest playmaker and I wish we give him a chance on offense a few times a game. Galloway is done he is taking up a spot that and we get no production from our #3 WR during the game.

@Skins89moss: It's easy to overlook him at Kansas State when he's 5'7 and 150 pounds, even today I bet most guys won't think he'll be able to take the pounding from an NFL game very long. So far he's defied the odds and he is a huge weapon on special teams. I'm glad he didn't get taken from us when we put him on the practice squad, because that kid is electrifying.

He's obviously going to fumble once in a while, just saying it's not the problem it was during the preseason where just fielding a kick was an adventure.

I'm wondering if we'll see a lot more of this in the future. Would be nice to have such a weapon that we'll see people kicking off out-of-bounds on accident.

Without BBanks16 in the field yesterday, we might have been blown out.

GridIron26 · 11-01-2010, 01:31 PM

No question, Banks is definitely an electrify player.. But i'm still wary of his fumbling problems.. I want to give him a few games to prove himself before we give him the starter spot permanently..

You mean a starting position as a wide out right?

Brandon Banks Breaks Redskins Record - Half Smokes - SB Nation DC

271 yards...would have been 300+ return yards and 2 TDs without that one flag!

skinsfan69 · 11-01-2010, 02:46 PM

Need to get him on the field more. Total 100% game breaker.
