Annonymous Source Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 All of those are major areas of concern, but none of them can really be considered an Achilles heel. The biggest vulnerability the Redskins have is depth at O-Line and proven depth at linebacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskool Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 It's all on the offense this year. Defense should be at least top 10 in the league, if not top 5 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoVaSkins21 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I'm still going to say OL play, even though it was intentionally not an option. The lack of depth is going to hurt them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnb123 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 How is Campbell not on this list? The success of this season is all on his shoulders. Our D and running game alone can get us 8-8, as you saw last year. Its all up to him beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HA1LV1CT0RY Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I didn't see the option for the right/middle of our offensive line to crumble like feta, but that's my only concern, with our receivers development second. ^^^^^ pass protection duhhhhh All those choices and no option for Right Tackle? 1. The offensive line was awful for the better (or worse) half of the season and unless Mike Williams is the answer, it will be again. I'm still going to say OL play, even though it was intentionally not an option. The lack of depth will is going to hurt them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HLF Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I think our only Achilles heel is scoring touchdowns. Whether thats on our QB, WR, Oline thats the only thing that I can see holding us back AGAIN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonOfWashington Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 All of those things you listed could be. Everything needs to click on this team if we want a fourth Lombardi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooley4President Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I said lack of production from Thomas Kelly and Davis. The success of the offense depends on them contributing, and it's a pretty big risk since none of them showed much promise last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegeta613 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Campbell not being on the poll makes it a joke Thread maker must be in his fan club He has to rise above being a game manager this year, plain and simple Throwing less than a TD a game again this year wont get it done If he can't do that this team will stay in the 8-8 range even if the defense improves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braxford Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Campbell not being on the poll makes it a joke Thread maker must be in his fan club He has to rise above being a game manager this year, plain and simple Throwing less than a TD a game again this year wont get it done If he can't do that this team will stay in the 8-8 range even if the defense improves I am not in Campbell's fan club but do think the Skins could do worse. I could care less who is QB as long as they help lead the Skins to wins. The whole point of this poll is to take a look at what could hurt the Skins this year other than QB an OLine which everyone knows and has posted here many, many times.

PROSCOUT Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Quarterback. Jason needs to be better and beat the Giants on opening day. Got to find a way to beat them. Can't compete or win the division by splitting with some teams and getting swept by others. Got to beat those Giants on opening day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysaskin Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Suisham, if he plays like he did last year we can have all the talent in the world and still be 8-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsdude Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 There's a possibility that each of the choices provided could be a problem, certainly 3/4 of them. None of them are out of the question. Hopefully that is not the case. The kicker, punter, and the new receivers not playing well rank right up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tris Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Quarterback. Jason needs to be better and beat the Giants on opening day.Got to find a way to beat them. Can't compete or win the division by splitting with some teams and getting swept by others. Got to beat those Giants on opening day. As stupid as it sounds to call the first game of the season (in May) a must win, I also feel that this way. We (and most importantly he) can not stumble out of the blocks. JC better have Sept 13 circled on his calender, and better be busting *** all summer with that in mind. Poor play there might be the straw that breaks the camels back. As far as our achilles, I voted WRs because these days you can not wiff on 3 2nd rounders without harsh consequences, but I think the overarching problem is what many others have said, and that is depth. This team is put together on a hope and a prayer that we are going to get 16+ games from the majority of our team, and those odds just aren't good.

Buck812 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Suisham, if he plays like he did last year we can have all the talent in the world and still be 8-8 We keep having the same select few beating on Campbell but if Thomas or Kelley beat out ARE and the OL holds up then he will be fine. Probably never a top 5 QB but a top 8-12 so I selected Suisham too... I think we have a pretty good year this year and then he burries us towards the end of the season and in the playoffs with missed kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiefPowhatan17 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 the one I was looking for was injuries and lack of production by the O-line, but it wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long-Time-Fan Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 If it does happen it will be the same thing thats hurt this team the last several years. The LACK of points they score. 21 points or under is not enough to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
