Keep 89 On the Field

I have to disagree some -- Moss is a liability when running. Him out there can also affect play action. I like him in passing situations, but hate the idea of him as a starter. He's an old guy, lets limit his snaps but definitely look his way out of the slot a lot to let him be effective.

Moss liability status, looking at his entire career, has been some fumbling and effort issues. He's money this season. No reason to live in the past when he can help us win games now.

Garcon would probably love to have a BYE week where he could rest it for 10 days or more.

I love Santana.

Unfortunately he is our best WR right now and that's not a good thing.

Who is this Garcon guy I keep hearing about?? I see him on the cap sheets but not on the field. The french waiter is officially in my doghouse.

Moss is doing very good this in his new role. Hopefully he will take a cut for the team in the offseason, and stay 2 more years, and retire a skin. Great Redskin.

My post wasn't clear -- I meant in the running game. He's one of the worst blockers on the team. Has more to do with his stature than his drive.

It sounds like you are going out of your way to pan Moss. Since when had Moss been a bad blocker? Because that's what your saying when you call him one of the worst blockers on the team.

Naturally, Moss isn't going to be a strong as Morgan or Garcon, but what makes him one of the 'worst blockers on the team'?

30Gut -- It's more a symptom of the type of players and talent we've brought in to this team. During the downs we want to sell play action or we want to run the ball -- I'd rather see any combination of Hankerson, Morgan, and Garcon on the field, probably Briscoe as well. The only person I don't know about is Robinson.

That's fine, it's not Moss' forte, but if you see Moss you should know it's a pass. I meant one of the worst blockers at WR -- I stand by that.

moss has never been a great run blocker. that's part of why morgan and hankerson and garcon and paul are put out there, because they run block well. and our WRs do spend a lot of time blocking for runs, that and griffin are huge parts of the nfl's #2 run offense.

until robinson and garcon figure out how to get on the field, moss and davis are clearly our best options. we just happen to have a QB that can hide the warts on the WR corp right now.
