What is wrong with Santana Moss? (merged)

Until he starts making those type of plays with more consistency, I don't believe you can characterize Campbell as a great deep passer. Hopefully the coaches are addressing his touch on deeper throws in practice. Of course the deep throw to Moss was pretty damn solid, and that could have turned the game in the Skins favor.

Actually, Tom Brady missed Randy Moss by a mile on a deep pass yesterday, and Peyton Manning misses from time to time, so I'm not sure what you mean by "Elite QBs do not miss".

And Campbell absolutely should not have to put touch on a ball that hits his target in the face. That ball to Moss was a perfect throw. The toss to Lloyd was a little long, but "Touch" wouldn't have been the answer. Brett Favre put quite a bit of touch on his deep throws and got picked twice. He should've been picked three more times.

Overall I think Campbell played a good game, outside of the one yard pass on 4th and 2.

Moss, wait for your blocks and you have a huge play. Don't get popped like a punk and fumble like a bitch. Offense stinks besides Campbell and Cooley yesterday. Those other guys are going to watch that film and I hope we do to Arizona what we did to Detroit. Then we're on the road at New England....

Some people act like qb's are suppose to be machines or something. Deep passes are low % to begin with. By my count JC had 6-7 dropped yesterday. He should have been around at least 25-37 yesterday. And the INT was not his fault either. It was a little high but that is a very catchable ball. JC totally outplayed Farve by a mile yesterday.

Also what was that shitty call on Thrash all about? How can you call a penalty on both players?? It should have been a no call if anything. The db stood right in Thrash' way. Horrible call. Sometimes the refs need to let the guys play a little bit. That should have been a 40 play on our part.

Yeah, I don't understand how people bitch when the starting quarterback can't throw a ball beyond 30 yards, then the same people bitch because the new starter throws too hard. I agree that his throws probably have a bit more velocity than the Washington receivers are used to, but that's no excuse when the ball hits your hands. And that argument holds little weight when Campbell fires rockets at Cooley and he seems to have no problem catching them.
