came up :bag: Sunday

granted, it's just one game so I'm not too worried but what happened? Did they roll double coverage on to him all day and dare ARE to beat them? I noticed ARE had a pretty big game...

 
Moss is agaonizing - I know that when I bench him he will go off for 200yds and 3 TDS - just not a consistant WR - HR threat but will dribve you nuts!

He had 2 big bombs (one at the end of regulation and another 40 + yarder) take those away he was mediocre. S. Moss is still their #1 guy.
 
Moss and Cooley were missing for the most part. Campbell had a difficult time getting his passes down, he was throwing high for the most part. They also hit ARE on the long ball a few times. They were also spying both Cooley and Moss with a safety at times too, so don't get down on him...other than a bad game.

 
He also dropped three passes...two were easy catches, the other was a little behind him, but he had two hands on it.

Campbell was throwing the ball harder than Elway yesterday. I love the arm strength, but he needs to bring it down lower if he's gonna throw it that hard.

 
Plus they played a good D yesterday... I wouldn't over react yet... it seemed in the 2nd half he was getting it together. Next week should be better.

 
agree with what everyone said. He had 3 drops, which is VERY unusual for him. Campbell also had some bad throws. But it was clear the Dolphins game plan was to take away the main two receiving threats last year (Moss and Cooley) and they pretty much did just that. But it SHOULD bode well that ARE will make teams respect him now, and hopefully better days are coming for Santana.

 
how'd he look physicaly? I know there are some reports he's dinged up physically no? did he make it through the game fine without pulling up at all?

eta: Panthers homer. had Washington game on regular TV but was at a friend's and we watched the Cats all game. thanks for help

He's fine. Prior to the game (late last week, I think) he said he feels great.His drops were costly. I believe two of them were on 3rd down.

Looking at the game stats and hearing about Campbell's eratic play, maybe he never got into a rhythm and wiffed on a couple easy fastballs so to speak. Good assessment?

Everytime he caught or dropped it, there was a defensive player hitting him. There was on;y one paly that I recall that he was wide open and Campbell over threw him. Moss was harassed for the most part, evertime he touched it. Still no excuse, but it surely didn't help.
 
As others have said, Moss is very streaky year-to-year. He only put up 55-790-6 last year after his big 2005 (with Brunell). Still, he's had a couple of big years, so given his up and down results, he could bounce back. Still, I wouldn't expect a 2005 repeat performance.

Well, they certainly weren't what he's used to with Brunell. He never got into a rhythm because he dropped a couple early in the game.
 
Wonder how many targets he got. If it was a healthy amount, I wouldn't be worried.
Looks like he got 7 targets and 3 catches. However, Campbell only had 21 attempts, so Moss got 1/3 of the looks. I'm trying to remember that pre season target analysis, but this seems healthy to me.

The hail mary at the end of regulation was to Randal-El, not Moss, Campbell overthrew him on one play that surely would have been a td.

Uhhhh, none of the Redskins had many targets...it was a bad passing day for the them. Partly because of the Defense, partly their Offense and partly Campbell over throwing/high not excactly on the mark with his passes. The running game was working for them in their attempt to play ball control. Randel-El was the only player that did much in passing game on a few long passes, which JC looked awesome on his long ball accuracy.

Campbell needs to work on those short-intermediate passes. Not enough tough. Overall, he played reasonably well given his lack of experience. Pretty much what I expect from him this year. He's going to be a very good qb once he learns how to play the game. Hopefully the Skins can continue to run the ball the way they did yesterday.

It's encouraging that he seemed to go to the right place with the ball on most plays. It's just that there were some errant throws and some drops. The first INT was really the only bad read, according to my view from my couch.
 
He had a bad game. Not much else to say. Those three drops aren't drops that he makes very often at all. Those were most assuredly on him.

Yeah, too bad Saunders is going to have those plays removed from the playbook. :confused: Seriously, I think ARE enters the ranks of secondary WR starters in FF this year. I'd certainly rather have Moss, but I think Campbell's development and Saunders' willingness to take shots downfield, plus the staff clearly figuring out what ARE's best routes are, will have a big effect on his value.
