highlights and lowlights so far

like every season, your expectations are constantly changing. Who do you think is the biggest sruprise from our expectatioins, that we thought wouldn't be as good? What about the biggest bust?

You have to think moss is the bust. I dont know about who for the other side though

Randle El, he really stepped up his game this season, too bad for the injuries but overall I'm really pleased with him, as for busts I would have to say Brandon Lloyd, I thought this would be his year but so far nothing even close to that, I'm still hoping they will try and throw the ball to him more.

Rocky Macintosh... and i know that some guys on here swore up and down about him but i personally had my doubts. when Lemar got cut i kept saying to myself "this dude better be the real deal" turns out he was and is. so for me personally i would say Rocky.

Im also suprised at how well our kickers have done. Frost believe it or not has turned out to be a very good punter for us. suisham has kicked clutch kick after clutch kick (aside from that PAT last week). Ummmm who else, oh, i also like Kendell, think hes turned out to be good as well. Mixed emotions about Campbell (im gonna get slaughtered) but oh well.

I thought signing London Fletcher was the wrong move to make...and I was wrong. Thankfully

Fred Smoot has been a huge disappointment. I didn't expect him to set the world on fire. I think he's a #2 CB/Nickel who can provide depth and a spark to the team. But he's brought basically nothing to the team so far.

Lloyd's been on the bench and done essentially nothing but Moss has had a negative and demoralizing impact. Moss is a huge bust this year and Rocky is the success story of the year. Fletcher and Taylor have also been terrific, but they were expected to be, at least by me.

Highpoints:
-At this point in the season, I'd say the o-line has been fairly impressive considering losing 40%; 60% if you count Dockery from last year.
-The front four haven't been the liability that I thought they would be. Not spectacular, but also not disgraceful.
-Sean Taylor, before injury, was a ball-hawking fiend that I didn't expect.
-Laron Landry has played like a veteran, something I never expect any rookie regardless of draft position.
-Todd Yoder has played very admirable. I didn't think much of him at all before the season started. Now when his number is called, I pay a little more attention.

Lowpoints:
-Goalline scoring....
-Mike Sellers. I love him. I really do, but I've seen more bad plays by him than I wanted to all season.
-Early season Clinton Portis; starting to sway that with the last two games.
-....meh, I hate talking about lowpoints...

I have to agree, JC has been really good at times, but also really average at others.

Great: Rocky, Landry, Sellers & Campbell
Disappointments: Betts (hasn't made a big impact since his new contract like hoped)
Bust: Lloyd

I think the biggest surprise from most people's expectations is that this team is only mediocre. The D cant hold a lead, the O is still struggling, and the coaching staff still cant manage the clock or adjust at halftime. Three years into Gibbs 2.0 I think most expected this stuff to be ironed out and the team would be fine tuning at this point.

Busts: Smoot & LLoyd. Both should never have been brought here.

Great: Fletcher. The guy has been a beast.

Great: Fletcher. The guy has been a beast.I disagree about Smoot. At least he's a viable #2 CB. He was a huge upgrade over Mike Rumph/Kenny Wright.

I agree about Fletcher, with an assist to Montgomery developing better than expected as a run stuffing DT.
