bubba9497 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AtkkQNe1r3G05bPEqvg6jweb2bYF?slug=undertheradardevelopment&prov=tsn&type=lgns Click link for entire article 10 under-the-radar developments in the NFL 4. The new Triplets are in D.C. Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin became inextricably linked last decade as the so-called Triplets, a one-two-three punch of quarterback, running back, and receiver that made the Dallas offense go. There is a new set of triplets in the NFC East, and it belongs to the Cowboys’ arch-rivals. Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell, running back Clinton Portis and receiver Santana Moss aren’t getting nearly as much notice as they deserve, but the numbers speak for themselves. Campbell hasn’t thrown an interception and has a triple-digit passer rating. At 944 yards through eight games, Portis has a shot at 2,000 yards. And Moss could end up with more than 1,300 yards receiving, which would be only the third 1,000-yard season in his career. Nearly two months ago, the Redskins were written off by many after they failed to show up in the regular-season opener against the Giants. Since then, the ‘Skins are 6-1. Even if they can’t beat the Steelers when the two teams get together on a national stage to cap Week 9, the Redskins need to be taken seriously down the stretch—due in large part to the efforts of Campbell, Portis and Moss.

PCS Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Nice little read there. And under the radar is fairly accurate, but that's not going to be for much longer if the "triple threat" keeps playing and producing like they have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSO Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 No, no, no... we don't need no stinkin Cowboy references in comparison to our team. We're better than the 'triplets'.... We're the quadruplets. Coooooooooooooooley baby. He makes our passing game go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kindred Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Cooley is so under the radar, he's under the under-the-radar, radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

“Misdirection” Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Cooley is so under the radar, he's under the under-the-radar, radar. I think you just blew my mind. :yikes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouvan59 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Unfortunately Cooley being under the radar just makes the comparison stronger.Remember Jay Novacek Cooley blows Novacek away. Take away his rookie season and Cooley has more yards in every season than Novacek's career best. Novacek's career best 6 TDs is Cooley's career worst. In 11 seasons Novacek scored 30 TDs. Cooley already had 27 in 4 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MustangSteve Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I feel the 2nd half of this season we will play even better. We are still learning this system and beating some of the best teams in the league at their house. When we really get this system down, it's going to be more then the triplets to worry about. Add Cooley and ARE, both are kind of being looked over because of the play of JC, Moss and Portis. This team has some weapons, and when it gets these nicks worked out and gets this system down, "we will be the most dangerous team in the league".

This team has some weapons, and when it gets these nicks worked out and gets this system down, "we will be the most dangerous team in the league". Cooley and Randle El are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of our weapons. Just wait until our rookies finally get up to speed and healthy, we're going to have a scary good offense. :cloud9: Ahhh I can hardly wait ...
