I'm all for it. I say let's put him back there for the majority of punt returns. He's the most dangerous PR on our team and one of the best in the league if given the opportunity. The object is to win the game, so let's throw it all out there. Our offense was one of the worst in the NFL last year. What do we have to lose?
Thoughts?

then he pulls his hammy, and is half speed the rest of the season. brilliant. if we make it to the playoffs, that's a different story. and your going to get yelled at. this was discussed in another thread
Not worth the risk. Put him back there in big situations but definitely not full time.

Agreed. He can spark us when we need him to but not full time. We need him full speed and injury free.

Part time yes, full time no way. Moss is our only true threat at WR. With Malcolm Kelly now our #2, (also susceptible to frequent injury), we can't afford to lose Moss. We all know he gets nicked up throughout the year without returning punts. I say put Devin Thomas back there and see what he can do. He's the best option right now in that he's #4 on the depth chart (soon #5 once Marko fully emerges) so he'll see less action on offense than the other 3.
Here's another idea...alternate D Hall and Moss on punt returns...both are speedsters and both have experience back there....just kidding.
I'm just glad football is back!! HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!!

Personally I'd like to see what Devin Thomas can do returning punts.

I agree...put Devin back there, especially since he may be feeling a little left out since Malcom jumped over him to take the #2 spot.

We could trade Portis and a 1st rounder for Devin Hester

I think this is a good idea. I don't think the likelihood of Moss getting injured goes up by much for returning 5 punts a game and if he can return a few, then it will probably get us another win or two with our defense.

It would be fun to have him back there, but it would be a big risk. Maybe if Kelly starts killing it at wr and Devin or Mitchell steps up, we can afford to throw Tana back there. The Lions would have been 1-15 last year if not for his return.
