I think we can beat Philly but right now I dont think we will. Defense needs some revamping at every level.

Eagles are on fire and its in Philly, I'd be surprised if we win next week.

They are 0-5 at home this year so I am sure we will find a way to end that streak.

I think we will win at philly. Seems like whenever we think its a win, we get a loss, and when we expect a loss, they pull it out. I still think .500 or even 9-7 is possible, but not without some major "get your fuckin asses in gear" from the OLine and Special teams. Our special teams are playing like a fuckin Special ED team. Fuckin droolin' all over their jerseys as Rocca punts the ball to his ST coach 15 yards away on the sidelines.

I really wanna see someone else on returns. This Morgan and Paul shit can eat my ass.

Moss can do punts, since he's seeing less action than Garcon and Hank and maybe even Morgan. Yuck.

And I thought Robinson could do kicks? I thought he was fast enough. Skins only use him for go routes anyway.

Paul really didn't do that bad on kickoffs last game though, but I remember how he'd like to get the butterfingers last season which doesn't make me feel too cozy.

The Fact that Robinson hasnt returned one kick since being here just makes me wanna vomit, I dont see why they dont just put him there.

Anyone know who will replace Thompson on the roster? Will they bring Jamison up or someone else from PS?

I think Thompson had already been kicked back to the practice squad after not doing squat the first few weeks as part of the team. I don't think they'll be doing any moving.

He was inactive, but not on the practice squad

Wasn't he terrible during preseason a couple of years back at returning kicks?

lol if so, the Skins really needed to have a backup plan in place in regards to a PR/KR.

I know we weren't expecting Crawford getting a season ending injury, but we always seem to throw our support behind one guy and if they suck or get injured, it seems like they just put anyone who has two working legs back there.

Couldn't be any worse than the horse crap we have back there now. Hell put Helu there, put Robinson there, put Moss there, put Doughty there, just tired of seeing Morgan and Paul.

I cant remember,I did read he had trouble catching punts but it didnt say anything about kickoffs,and I do think theres a difference.
I would love to see Robinson get a try at returning kickoffs and Moss returning punts.
Moss is at the stage in his career you shouldnt be worried about him getting hurt.But they should have started earlier this yr,who cares now.

On a side note relating to punts,it really bothered me and pissed me off that the skins didnt use D.Green on punts his last season.He was not a valuable piece of the defense anymore and the team certainly wasnt worried about him getting injured,I thought they wasted a golden opportunity not using him.
