Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Giants)

I don't think I'm saying anything that can't be verified by the coaches tape. This is who Santana Moss is. This is who he has been since 2007. And this is who he is going to continue to be.

No one who watches the coaches tape is ever impressed by Santana Moss. He never "shows up" on film.
I'll give you no doubt in that..

it seems like moss doesn't buy into our system or won't put the effort into it

then again it could just be that he doesn't have it anymore?

Seems like those were decent options and maybe the playcalling wasn't a big issue? I don't think that you can say a guy should cycle and find someone more open when his downfield options catch it.

It's also possible that the Giants were able to pick up on our play calling tendencies. It'll be interesting to see if this will be similar to when teams picked up on Zorns strategy, though I doubt Sherman Lewis is the type that will simpily stay pat.

Once.

Collins came in, and got the requisite one decent route from Santana Moss. I thought he made a really nice throw to Davis in tight coverage, and I don't think Campbell makes that throw, but perhaps he should have moved through the progression to find someone more open.

Collins did some nice things in like four passes, but all he ever seemed to do was throw to the primary receiver. I guess that's all you can really ask from your backup.
isnt this one of the issues with Campbell? getting off of a receiver too quickly, not letting them get open?

Agreed. That pass to Davis was on the money and was nearly a TD. I wish Campbell did that more often, give the receivers a chance to make a play. There were more than a couple of times Monday night that Campbell's sacks were more the result of coverage sacks. And not so much great coverage, just Campbell not trusting his receivers.

It's going to take time. We've got to get a whole new o line and you can't rebuild a line in one year. I just hope he brings in some professionals and some leaders. We need more guys like London Fletcher.

I agree with you, and I trust the neccessary time will be alloted to do the things that need to be done. I say that because for whatever the reason may be, time is something the fans or the media here have time for. Whenever change is made instant results are expected, when immediate results aren't forthcoming the heat is on and another change is sought. We need to change that cycle. Professionals are something we can never get enough of.
