Hail to the Redskins

I know since the beginning of last season, people around the Redskins said that Randle El was best suited to being the slot receiver... and Sunday he proved it all true.
If we can start exposing those holes in zone defenses like he did or run a bunch of slants where he can beat his man off of the line, just think of the openings/mismatches he creates for Moss, Cooley & Kelly.
I hate to say it, but honestly, never been much of a Randle El fan, but, I really think HE could be the key to our offense this year as if defenses try and tighten up on him Cooley/Moss/Kelly will be set!
We really do have great "niches" for each receiver... Moss, the deep threat... Cooley, the reliable, 1st down receiver... Randle El the zone buster... and Kelly the jump ball/Plaxico Burress TD threat...
Regardless, I think it starts with Randle El establishing himself as a threat to catch 8-9 passes per game finding holes in the other team's gameplan...
Randle El = Wes Welker light in 2009?
I sure as hell hope so!!! ( If we could just get Zorn & Campbell to take advantage of the weapons...)
... Figured we could focus on something positive and good after the past few days of angst & hostility! lol Let's drink some Randle El Kool-Aid!! (OK ... exaggerating there)
