I like stuff like this

Quote:
In Washington you can't expect new coach Jay Gruden to get Jackson back to his career-high numbers of 82 catches and 1,332 yards he had with Chip Kelly and the Eagles last season.
Why? Wasn't Kelly a rookie HC last year too??

Maybe he doesn't reach those numbers but to think he can't post very productive numbers here is just crazy.

Yeah, he won't put up 82-1332-9, because Kelly's offense makes players look better than they really are(Foles), but to think he can't put up good numbers is crazy. 65-1000-5 is very realistic.

Also, not sure how Mr. Watkins came to the conclusion that Dallas' receiver corps is better than ours. He wrote that, "Bryant and Williams are an emerging force that's going to be difficult to stop on a consistent basis within the division." Fair enough, but Garcon is a great receiver too, even if not as good as Bryant, and DeSean Jackson is far better than Williams. And as of right now, the WRs behind Garcon/Jackson are much, much better than those behind Bryant/Williams. His only argument that "proved" that Dallas' corps is better was when he listed Bryant's stats against Philly versus Jackson's stats against Dallas. Dafuq? Another of his rationales: "Terrance Williams, as a rookie, had a four-game stretch with at least one receiving touchdown and his speed makes him a big-play threat." Did he forget to mention that we have the guy who is possibly the best deep threat in the game?

The thinking behind that article is lacking a bit, to say the least.

Well Gruden never has made his receivers very effective...

wait...

ok, well, Gruden's never worked with a young qb and gotten him to produce...

wait

ok weeelllll, Gruden never has coached a whole team before and had success...

uh yeah, I just don't get it.

But Gruden's a "new" playcaller at Washington. So Jackson can't possible match last season. Meanwhile the Cowpukes having a new playcaller is an advantage.

Surprised that the cowpuke writer didn't tout Witten more, but maybe they're afraid of what Jordan Reed can do, with Garcon and Jackson as deep threats?

Yup, doesn't make much sense to dismiss DJax performance-wise like that.

Dallas does have a good group no doubt, but they are banking on T Williams to be a big time player and idk if he's really capable of that

Comparing a second year talent with Dez Bryant to Garcon and Jackson doesn't really add up for me. I would take our two over those two any day.

I usually hate to read the comments on PFT website, but this one is worth repeating:

The comments are pretty much the only reason to read PFT.

The smart money is to bet against the Redskins in situations like this. Therefore the Redskins don't have the best anything until they prove it on the field and I'm perfectly fine with that in all honesty.

Keeping the honesty theme going, cowboys have the biggest choker at qb in the history of the league.

But if he goes down they have the great, awesome, unstoppable, fantastically-ballin' Weeden.
