They're hoping to replicate the Rams with tiny, fast playmakers outside and a quarterback winging it.

I hope this is true, but Brunell isn't exactly what I'd call a "slinger." He's the girl that's good for marrying but not much fun for dating. (Manages a game, doesnt turn it over. Also misses a lot of opportunities.)

And this is the biggest issue the Redskins have. All of these signings mean nothing if Mark Brunell isn't up to the task.

I think the best we can hope for as Redskins fans, is for Jason Campbell to clearly beat out Brunell for the starting job.

about the original article...THATS WHAT SPORTS WRITERS SHOULD DO.

Seems all of them today just write what they think, nothing more. Its rare that an article will give facts, quotes, and explain the feelings of the people involved. Instead they take a situation and either rip it or praise it, nevermind the reasons the team/player/coach had in the situation.

Look at peter king, len paskerwellie, and the morons on cbs.sportsline, their articles look similar to what you find trolls writing on message boards, or mal contents posting in their blogs. Seriously, look at what they have said recently about the skins.

King has gone so far as to accuse the skins of cheating and called for an investigation into their cap/payroll. HE IS THE TOP NFL GUY for his company? Thats something a 22 year old in dallas writes in his blog. King says amost nothing of the team, the roster, the coaches, their plan, or anything like that. He doesn't quote anyone, and shows no sign of actually speaking with anyone from the skins...yet he writes about them constantly with never the slightest positive angle.

I want more sports writers like Lewis Grizzard...funny, and told the story from every reasonable side.
