Could Thrash Become #2 WR

Campbell if anything, likes to spread the ball around and I think that if we have all four receivers on the field at once, we can count on any one of those guys.

I really don't want to rehash the name Brunell (I keep vowing not to), but I remember "going all GTripp" last year and reviewing the distribution of receivers thrown to during Brunell's games vs Campbell's. The difference was minimum at best. In fact, I think Brunell had a higher number.

Anyhow, my point is that I think the receivers will do better this year, but I think that's just as much a product of being more accustomed to the system than anything else.

Speaking of going all GTripp, I was about to do something similar to TMC's post, but ultimately, though not necessarily based in fact, and while making an unneccessary Brunell comparison, his point about Campbell's passing aptitude is a good one.

Talking receivers, Moss had a bad year and will rebound. Lloyd probably won't play very much. I expect him to look like an NFL receiver when he does. Randle El will get more looks, and consequently more yards. The guy to watch out for is James Thrash.
