The Skins One Concern

Kicking game

OL depth

Secondary depth

He'll start Campbell if Campbell hands down plays better than Brunell. That will have to involve Brunell making huge mistakes, just playing horribly, you know, in his 2004 form. All of this might be unlikely, but that's what will have to happen.

Remember, I'm hoping for Campbell to win the job ... it's not necessarily what I think WILL happen.Yea but the 2004 season was pretty much over when he pulled Brunell.

DT depth - if CG or Big Joe go down we lose alot in the run stopping department - and that is where it all starts.

If you were asked to pick the one concern you have about the skins team what would pick and why. It can be a player, secondary, Oline etc...

I'm going to say that Brunell is my biggest concern. He had a great year for use but seemed to fade toward the end of the season. I don't know if it was due to injury, his arm just got tired, or the teams we faced were just better. We have all the weapons on O for him this year but will he be able to get the ball to them and can he keep up his level of play in the post season. I'm not as concerned with the beging of the year as I am with the last 1/4 and post season.

I don't worry about Brunell because he has been one of the better performers at the QB position, ever. He wins games, so he will be fine.

My vote is for kicker and punter, but the offensive line depth gets honorable mention.

Also, I hope for consistency that Saunders doesn't change too many things too quickly. If he does, this could be a very 2004 like situation with the new offense.

So Santa needs to send us a mean nasty HOG < OL > , A bad ass DL , and a LB , Db , and a punter or kicker . If only Ditka was a GM / coach again maybe we could get him to send us his entire draft ,,,,, DAMN ! Saunders new offence has Sellars at Fb , hope he KO's Lavar the first time we run the rock on the NYG men !

probably receiver depth....



sike...

If every player stays healthy I don't really see anyone, except for linebacker (this is still pre-draft), however our problem pertains to "risk" I believe.

If we lose any OL or DL, and we will, things may become quite hairy. So am I panicked? No. Why? Because with the greatest coaching staff ever assembled we don't really need All-pro OL + DL backing up our guys. This team is unique.

I am aware that I am biased. So really none of this means anything to anyone. sweet.

Yea but the 2004 season was pretty much over when he pulled Brunell.

I don't get your point. My point was that if Brunell plays like he did in 2004 this preseason, and Campbell plays better, Campbell should win the job.

I don't get your point. My point was that if Brunell plays like he did in 2004 this preseason, and Campbell plays better, Campbell should win the job.I did not know you were talking about preseason. For Gibbs to start Campbell he will have to play at a very high level and Brunell will have to play even worse than he did in 04. We know how hard pressed Gibbs is to switch QB's unless your name is Ramsey. LOL

I'm worried about everything. The Redskins walk a thin line, any adversity can be detrimental. Lets list a few examples:
1) The defense needs Sean Taylor. If he is convicted, the secondary would be in shambles.
2) The offensive line needs to be healthy. The offense will be in trouble if something like Jansen having two broken thumbs and Thomas breaking his leg.
3) Brunnel has to stay healthy and efficient. Brunnel took a couple of big hits down the stretch and it affected his production. Can't have that this year.
4) The special teams need much improvement. Randle El will help the return game but kickoffs, punts and field goals were a problem last year. Coverage on kickoffs and punts is also a concern.

Really? I thought we were like top 3 in coverage on special teams last year.
