Hard for me to say Portis or Campbell, since we've seen the Skins excel with both of them out for extended periods of time. I know all the counter-arguments, but still don't think either of them being injured would totally unravel the offense.

So I'll say Samuels as well. Campbell, like most QBs, can be very effective with lots of time.

On D, probably Haynesworth. His play has the ability to elevate everyone on defense. He stuffs the run, affords the DEs single coverage, which in turn leads to more sacks and forces bad throws, which leads to more fumbles and interceptions, etc. Like I've said before, I'm of the opinion that you don't need high-paid cornerbacks when your front 4 can consistently put pressure on the QB, so I don't think Rogers or Hall are all that important (assuming Haynesworth is as advertised and our DEs don't suck).
