That's not to say the other receivers haven't been guilty of the same thing through.

The Redskins need to draft a TE and put Paul back at WR like where he should be. Niles Paul can't even catch a cold.

re: Goodbye Brandon Banks?

I just never understood Paul's switch to TE. He didn't play TE in college @ Nebraska and he caught only 2 passes from Rex Grossman all last season playing WR. Despite the fact that he had a TD reception against the Dallas Cowboys, the selection to place Paul at TE hasn't helped the team offensively. Even when Paul is in the game, he's supposed to be faster than the LBs covering him, but they manage to stay with him. He's plays like Otis Wonsley on special teams but he truly has NO PLACE in the Redskins offense.

its usually polumbus getting bullrushed back into him.

Don't get me started on Polumbus. I mean, you're right. But when protection has broke down on the left side (blindside) it's often been Paul missing a blocking assignment.

And sure accidents happen. I know Young missed an assignment that led to RG getting trucked once...it happens. Can't remember the specific game.

But with Paul he's missing blocks, dropping passes, doing nothing after the catch unless aside the one TD that was blown coverage. It's pretty bizarre he's on the field apart from special teams. Again, it's a Mike thing, been a Mike thing for a long time with different players/coaches.

Man, with all this complaining, you'd think this was the old Redskins with a losing record and being irrelevant in December.

No one is complaining. We're just discussing the going ons of the Washington Redskins.

I agree that his decision making his last few games has been terrible. I think he is pushing too hard, probably out of fear of losing his job. I thought he was a lone bright spot in Shanny's first two seasons. The new kick off rules make me wonder if any team can have a pure return man.

Good point. We forget how good he was before that rule.

Nothing is wrong with Banks except he makes poor decisions when he fields kickoffs and is the reason behind the offense starting its possessions well below their own 20 yard line. This needs to stop. Also, Banks can't seem to use his speed to full explosion. He lacks explosion. He's nothing like Mike Nelms and Brian Mitchell were.

Nothing is wrong with Banks except he sucks.

Nuff said.

If Banks totally sucks, then how did he make it onto an NFL roster? Okay, I agree with you wholeheartedly that Brandon Banks sucks.
