Does the Wash Post Writer Actually Know the Redskins?

If that's so, this sportswriter might be right about using Rabach on screens, although we don't seem to use the center much in that capacity. Maybe Cory Raymer's limited athleticism prohibited Gibbs from using that kind of play last year.

Screens were never called in Gibbs offense in the 80's and early 90's. What the Post guy said was that screens were a intergal part of Gibbs offense. This is not true.
