Oh, I don't think it's impossible for them to possibly have a good game this sunday.. Well, except for Kelly obviously.. But Thomas and Davis, it might be their chance to prove themselves.. They rarely have a chance to show themselves because of the players above them.. I'm pretty sure Thomas have done well when thrown to.. He might be over aggressive w/ blocking or whatever sometime.. But how can he learn if he does not make any mistakes?

I think the coaches have done a poor job of having a couple of plays designed to get them into the action. Besides that reverse (which did not work) what other plays have we run were the ball was going to them?

I'm officially off the Devin Thomas bandwagon. Like most Mich St. receivers, he runs poor routes, and in the NFL, he absolutely can not run by anyone.

I'm actually off the Kelly bandwagon and hitched a ride with the thomas group.
I like that Thomas is a football player not just a WR. Once he figures out how to adjust to the game, I think he will have a weapon over the middle. I think we need to see him on kickoff returns...


I'm tired of Kelly, He gets banged up more than Paris Hiltons vagina.

Thomas has been running routes regularly.
There are 3 reasons he hasn't caught any passes.
A. His route running
B. No seperation
C. Campbell doesn't trust him.

And to GTripp's point....B and C are likely due to A....solve that and it fixes the others.

That is why I still hold out hope for Malcolm Kelly, he aint a "red-shirt" Redskin like Devon Thomas....Now that I think of it, thats a good nickname....Redshirt Thomas!
UGH....at least its not Red-skirt!
He'd have to EARN that nickname by actually catching a ball and being a wuss thereafter.

He has beat coverage on several plays and JC missed him wide open down the field. He will get his chance and I think the coaches need to do a better job of getting him involved in the game.

I agree, he cannot throw the ball to himself when he is wide open. Eventually, JC is going to hit him a few times and it is going to be "game on!".

Are you drunk?

Unless I'm wrong about the "Two time Pro Bowler"(The infamous TTB) part then no I'm not drunk. When word came that the Skins picked up the TTB instead of bringing back Mason the lot of you said SA would be the perfect fit, that he would teach Portis something. lol. Now you all are saying with out Portis we are doomed. lol. Apparently your faith has wained a bit and the TTB is not the answer. lol. Atleast some of us were looking at a more current player who led the league in preseason. Oh ...thats right led the league in preseason against 2nd and 3rd stringers. lol.

Ya'll can't have it two ways...you can't say the TTB is going to revitalize his career here and then two weeks later say we are doomed if we don't have Portis or Betts.

Where are all the Rock fans who say Rock is a #1 and should be given a chance to run the ball? That he will fill in nicely for Portis and Betts. We have 3 RB on this team and and now a 4th and only Portis is the man? Maybe we should pick up another RB you know ....just in case something happens to Rock.

I just wish we could see a repeat of Thomas' first td pass (without the penalty of course)
