Campbell Questions

[dmek25]

why are some people enamored with a TALL receiver? what in the world does that have to do with accuracy? if the throw is on the money, it doesn't matter how tall the player is. Campbell has made great strides in his brief career. and any skins fan should be excited for what is about to come. the more he works with these guys, the more accurate he will become

I'm not enamored with a tall receiver, I'm saying a smaller target is harder to hit. He seems a little high with his throws and I think with guys that are 6'3" instead of 5'10" he'd have a little more margin for error. It's not a shot at our receivers or campbell.

Having a tall receiver is a HUGE advantage once you're in the red zone - he presents a much larger target, and can generally outjump pint-sized DB's on any high passes. The first TD to Owens is the kind of play that we just cannot run consistently well, hence, we bog down inside the 10 on numerous occasions. Even a good DB with size like Springs has no chance one-on-one against a bigger stronger man like TO on that play.

I'd argue that TO's size would have allowed him to get his hands on the pass that was too high for Moss at the end of the game.
