We shall see, we misused other high impact players in the past, including Arrington and Jason Taylor...for some reason it takes our D coaches a long time to put our impact players in a position to maximize their capabilities. Although Blache has said he'd let Haynesworth play more of an attacking freestyle style, I will wait until I see it since that has not been his coaching MO for d-linemen. If he doesn't use him correctly, he wont produce as well as he did in Tenn....even so, he is an upgrade, but the secondary is weaker in my opinion than last yr...and they are overconfident...I just don't buy the skins were a top 4 defense....statistically, maybe...but c'mon, how many non skins fans would put the redskins defense last year in their top 4?

I think the reason the skins were top 4 last year is becase their offense was so anemic that we kept giving the other team short fields to score....less possible yards=less yard gained against us...I'd be interested if anyone had info on average field position for opposing team...I'd guess the Skins gave up some pretty good field position.
