If we protect Jason Campbell better, he'll be able to find Moss downfield. I disagree that we should be running bad plays just so Moss touches the ball. However, if the defense is overpursuing, thats another story.
Here's how to protect the QB better.
Jason Fabini Don't ever see the field.
Casey Rabach You're a 9 year veteran. Learn how to sort out the protections.
Jon Jansen Get him help against top pass rushing LEs. Jansen gives way too much ground with Portis to help. He almost always ends the play in Campbell's hip pocket. If you are beat, Portis will chip your guy back into harms way.
Randy Thomas You need better leverage off the snap. If you win the first step, it's all over.
I thought one of the newer issues with this offense was that JC had to take care of a lot more of the protection calls rather than Rabach?

Maybe our other recievers can step up and make a big play (Kelly and Thomas, Im talking about you), they could defelect attention from moss. ARE and Cooley are doing great but we need another credible threat.
It's great to see that Campbell hasn't thrown an interception this year, but INTs are not always the result of a bad throw or decision but sometimes the result of a well weighed risk. When you see that a team's deep passing game is suffering and that the team hasn't thrown any interceptions, you could make the argument that the team and the QB need to take more risks.

It'd probably also help if Moss could hold on to the balls that are thrown his way.
1-You have to make those catches. 2-Campbell needs the line to play better. 3-The Philadelphia game was a perfect example of what to do if he is going to be the main focus of the defense.

Please, please try to get the ball to him more! He's been hurting my fantasy team! haha Seriously though....I get the whole he's not getting thrown to as much "but he's an on field threat". Therefore he is being double covered. But some properly placed slant passes and I know some one on ones have to be opening up to allow him to break it open!

agreed!
and if defenses are taking him out of the game so successfully, we need to do a much better job of exploiting the coverage holes that are left by doubling him.
the way cooley made the eagles pay for focusing on santana, is what needs to happen EVERY time. we did not do that against the rams.
The Skins did make them pay...unfortunately we turned it over 3 times deep in Rams territory that took at LEAST 10 points off the board and 7 on the board for them.

I didnt realize the fact that JC hasnt thrown a TD in 10 quarters. I think Zorn needs to open the playbook a little more and get some passes downfield. To Moss, ARE, Cooley, Thomas.

they have to figure a way to get santanna the ball,either on reverses,or those wr screen passes.everytime he touches the ball he could go all the way.they have to figure every team we play is gonna try to contain him.hopefully,he'll have a big game sunday.

santanna can play until he's 60,but the two tds he scored against dallas in 2005 at dallas,will always be the ones he's remembered for.just like rusty tillman will always be remembered for blocking 2 punts in dallas in george allen's last year.
