Re: Our WRs in 2009... My Thoughts

Like I said, the Steelers still had an effective offense when Ward went out, and we have a good receiver in Moss and a pro-bow TE in Cooley (Smith plays for the Eagles, Miller for the Steelers). The Eagles were MUCH better in previous years when they didn't have Jackson and there's nothing stopping the Redskins from using the RBs in the passing game except for poor coaching and play calling. And I also used the '08 Titans and Patriots of the last 8 years as an example, and could have thrown in the Ravens for good measure. WRs are not the key to being successful in the NFL. Even the Cardinals were a 9-7 team this year and could very well be a flash in the pan.
