[quote=Zerohero;547254]Hmm i have yet to make a thread, but don't worry it will somehow involve Sanchez, Booing Campbell, Calling ARE a playmaker. Gimme a sec still laughing bout calling ARE a playmaker. Will be a poll too, with vague answers, still working on it.[/quote]


And I will be glad to blow it up too[IMG]http://www.thewarpath.net/images/icons/icon12.gif[/IMG]

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

On a side note I hate people that call themselves playmakers. Those are the type that could literally have someone sitting on them and they'd still be waving their arms for the ball. Then they'd go to the sidelines and tell the QB how open they were.

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

The only way the Campbell bashing will end, is if Thomas and Kelly get with the program and help Campbell out.

Those were my exact words a few hours ago.

The purpose is blurred somewhere between Campbell's value, what will get us over the hump, and thread-worthiness. I dunno.

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

football is a team sport....therefore you must have all the elements to succeed. Taking Mark Sanchez is not going to put the Redskins into automatic SB contention. The OL line situation needs to be taken care of before the Redskins offense can expect to move the ball with all the "playmakers"

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

[quote=diehard;547198]Moss? Check.
Cooley? Check.
Randle El (now known as Santonio Holmes)? Check.
Jason Campbell? Hmmm.

And before you say the WR corps was the culprit, Moss, Randle El, and Cooley are better than Cutler's Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, and Daniel Graham/Tony Sheffler. [/quote]
Moss - basically a deep threat or speed threat only. No Red Zone threat
Cooley - Pro Bowl level TE, but not a "game-breaker"
ARE - No way
Portis - Very solid RB, seems to have lost "breakaway" speed.
Campbell - Played at a Pro Bowl level behind a solid OL.

I'll take Denver's WRs over ours any day of the week and twice on Sunday. TE, Cooley is better.

Read the line above my avatar, it says it all!

P.S. What if you're wrong about Sanchez? I wouldn't take that risk on a QB who had only one productive year at USC. Pretty hard to truly evaluate a QB who plays on a college team that out-classes it's competition by leaps and bounds across the board talent wise every week.

It's great to have an opinion but we've been discussing this topic on many threads. You'll learn when to make a thread and when to respond. We treat every newcomer the same, but relax bro the warpath is not here to run you out. Damn, where the Hell is Dr. Phil when we need him. (joking):)

Please, heres how the newcomers deal really works. You make a few stupid threads (like a DE thread in 2006 *cough*) you get called out on it.
If you sound like an eager six year old thats using Madden to evaluate players you get called out on it. If you're lucky someone will see it's your first post and give you a welcome to the forum post. Other then that new guys around here are just guys with low post counts. Take it from me. I'm ranked 44th on the forum and my post still suck.

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

Thanks to everyone. No hard feelings. I just recently became OK with the notion of drafting Sanchez at 13th overall, not trading away more picks. I was all for Campbell when talks surfaced about Cutler but I then started thinking about the situation I was (and will ever be) in at my job. Being with this company before it opened it's doors and basically working my way up the corporate ladder, there was a lot of instability from the top down and many of my bosses who were axed wanted to improve the production that I gave. I'm sure you guys can relate to the competitiveness in the workplace. Co-managers and workers who want your job but don't really know or aren't willing to do it consistently as long as I have. And then thery're the outsiders who have shined elsewhere... How can I be against Campbell in his situation? Whether he's is the redskins franchise QB come Sanchez, Tim Tebow, or next off-season's hot veteran FA we (Campbell and I and you to, if you can relate) have have to show and prove. Instability and other excuses aside. Keep in mind if we re-sign Campbell that doesn't make give him immunity from upgraditis from FO. I'm a Redskins fan. And that's preference over it's players and coaches. Thanks for reading.

Moss always grows on the north side of the tree

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

[quote=diehard;547198]Moss? Check.
Cooley? Check.
Randle El (now known as Santonio Holmes)? Check.
Jason Campbell? Hmmm.

I too am warming up to the idea that if we want to get to the promise land it may take drafting Sanchez or probably giving Colt Brennan a shot. Why? It's no secret that Campbell has had a lot of instablility as far a OCs go but, look at his game. Even at Auburn his impressive W-L record and national championship title was helped much by a strong defense and running game (Cadillac Williams and Ronnie Brown). This reveals Campbell strengths. He does a great job making safe reads and takes very few chances with the football. The Skins have had a top 5 defense for most of the years he's started and a very effective running game so, we can afford to be more risky in that regard. Also, even though we have had great defenses, we are not one that have a lot of takeaways, or points off of, as the 2000 Ravens did. And before you say the WR corps was the culprit, Moss, Randle El, and Cooley are better than Cutler's Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, and Daniel Graham/Tony Sheffler. I believe Cutler's big numbers are a result of his ability to let it fly (watch what he does in CHI under [B]his new OC[/B] and former FA bust Brandon Lloyd and REL-like Devin Hester). Something Campbell doesn't risk doing often. That's why Jay Cutler or a Brett Farve will have a eye-popping number of INTs to go with thier impressive TD stats. Who's to argue that Farve isn't a winner? A franchise QB? A team can surely win with Jason Campbell or a Trent Dilfer but, you have to make sure other attributes of the team make up for the lack of risk taking.[/quote]

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

This is a good thread to jump start. We need to make some plays, period. I'm not going to get into the JC bashing of this week (much of which is undeserved). We need some folks to step it up though.

Playmakers for week 2:
Moss, Kelly- I'd like to see both have a solid game here
CP- I love the guy, but when was the last "wow" play that he's made. Where's our change of pace guy, like a Bradshaw or a Spruill? CP is solid though and he should be looking at a 100 yard game.
Laron Landry- He made a great play on the int last week, but does stupid stuff almost every week, step it up.
Zorn- it's time to light up the scoreboard. Call a good game.

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

Why is the thread in NFL Draft Central?

Re: Wanted: Playmakers
 

Because it started as a draft thread - i.e. "we need to [I]draft[/I] playmakers".
