I am very worried. Parcels always gave Gibbs problems even when Gibbs had big game tested teams. Gibbs has 2 games under his belt this time around and an offense that has done nothing yet. Anyone who says they are not worried has their head burried in the sand. I wish they had not sh*t the bed in the Meadowlands last Sunday so that they would have a little more room for error tonight. This is going to be a very tough game for the Skins to win tonight...
As to Gardner's critics - did anyone see that 50-yarder he caught where he really had to lay out to get it....sick. I know he drops some easy ones, but he also makes some amazing catches (hence his nickname 50-50).
Gibbs obviously thinks enough of Gardner to start him ahead of James Thrash, Taylor Jacobs, and Darnerien McCants.
Yeah I saw that, definitely a sweet catch, problem is I also saw him drop a TD pass a few plays later.

Gardner has been a dissapointment. Yes, Gibbs is starting him now because he has the most talent. It's only been 2 games so far. I don't expect that Gibbs will sit back though for 16 games and watch him keep dropping passes. An NFL WR needs to make that TD catch against the Giants 100 out of 100 times. That was inexcusable...

I think most of us are on the same page with Gardner. Hopefully he will prove us wrong tonight and have a great game, and if not, next week he should be sitting on the bench.

I'm worried about covering those big, fast receivers. This will be the biggest test so far for Smoot.
S. Taylor may prove effective against Meshawn.

how we all turn on bowen afer his awesome first game...
against no-threat receivers he blitzed well when no one expected it. but after the novelty wore off and offenses caught wind of it, he's back to his ineffective self.

Not worried in the slightest.
We should win this game handily.

if brunnel or hasselback play the whole game,i ai'nt worried.if ramsey gets in i'll get a major miagraine cause the skins will lose.i hear its supposed to rain,well i do'nt remember the skins under gibbs losing a lot in the rain.i think the defense will bail out the offense again,if ramsey keeps his ass on the pine.

i'm worried. we should've beaten the Giants handily. anytime i see fumbled snaps, and forced interceptions i'm worried.
