Portis and Cooley Calling Out an Offensive Teammate?

And yes, those teams have other weapons, but we have 5 players on Offense that have played in the pro-bowl - Sellers, Samuels, Cooley, Portis, Moss. Plenty of options and not a valid reason for averaging 16 points a game over the last 17 games.

Santana Moss, playmaker?! What year are we in?

Can we have 3 slot receivers at all times?

I think Portis' and Cooley's comments are awesome. It does call out the unit as a whole but I suspect by now they've watched the film and seen the INT up close. Tana should be embarrassed already but maybe (even though CP and Tana are friends) this will light a little fire under him to not take plays off this season. I hope the whole unit comes out swinging Sunday w/ a very aggressive scheme (that's on Zorn) and awesome execution!!!

Bench his ass and put in malcolm kelly or marko mitchell. They're eager and hungry to prove they can do it. Let moss get out of the dog house by running back punts and kicks.

That is the point I was making with San Diego that you are trying to make with NE. They didn't have pro bowl caliber receivers on offense beside LT and Gates until they drafted receivers in the past few years. But they still were putting up points even when Brees was there. I am saying that we have the players but we dont utilize them well and have a scheme that is molded to our players strengths.

Looking at my previous posts. I really need to check for typos..lol

Well like I stated on another thread S.Moss did not show up to play. He let Webster get in his head early and he was a nonfactor. I trust that S. Moss has some pride and he will have a big day against the Rams. ( 5 rec. 110yds 1td).

No that was Santana Moss who was blanketed by Jason Webster. I think it was a burgandy blanket.

Your wrong on that because Andre Johnson of the Texans was taken out of the game against the Jets. Go look at his stats and see for yourself. CB Reves of the Jets heald him in check.

AJ's not going to be held in check very often. Revis is the goods.

I'm just glad that CP and Cooley had the balls to call out the offense as a whole to do better. I think our players on offense all believe that they can play better and they will. A true leader will speak up and say what needs to be said to that individual that needs to step up his game. We need for our guys to be hungry for success this year. HTTR.
