Be Bold 4/15/07

Exactly my friend, I am glad you see.

The goal is to be bold, and to be bold we only have two choices. We arent just going with the sexy pick, go for the bold one...

Yeah but you said rational and bold in your original post. Predicting 5-11 largely upon who our backup QB is might be bold, but really how rational is it?

I mean rational based on the given assumptions. I mean the study of Economics is exactly the same, you make rational conclusions based on assumptions to make the situation easier to analyze.

The assumptions in this case is that our starters remain the starters. The point is to look at Al's Offense and if it has come around, and to see if the D can hold up.

The question is will we win big or lose big. Again this is just an interesting way of thinking of things. Again I am an Econ major, so maybe that is why everyone isn't following my thought.

My apologies SmootSmack, I did not read Redskin Rich's previous posts.

My original assumption was NO injuries.

Actually, you mis read me Smoot.... I said I don't think JC can get it done at this point and has no one behind him that can either.

and we don't have a true deep threat WR that will scare the DB's... we have a GREAT number 2 acting as a 1

Fair enough. As for the WR situation, I've brought this up in other threads about CJ, when you look at the best receivers in the league (Boldin, Chad Johnson, Harrison, Steve Smith, Andre Johnson) how many actually make their team better? I mean to get someone like Calvin Johnson would be exciting but does it make our team better? The last two games of the year it didn't look like we had any trouble putting points on the board. And if Saunders could score points with guys like Boeritger and Kennison at WR, why couldn't he with Moss and El?

I think without a true stud at WR, you can have a good year, but not sustain it... Like I said earlier, we need someone with Westbrook's talent and build, but with a heart of a player.

Good post, as usual.

I think everone knows my opinion on another wide receiver by now. No need to bring out the old banned sig.

The league is built on speed now, you no longer need the biggest guy in the world to catch. They call Pass interference alot more due to the rule changes a couple years back.

You just need fast receivers like Smith that can create space. I am not saying CJ will be bad, but we might be fine with what we have.
