Wyvern Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 By way of observation -- besides him being being gratingly annoying --Schein also has a very big mouth. I mean, proportionally speaking, his mouth and jawbone seem very large in comparison with the rest of his face. And when he speaks, he almost brays. Prediction-wise, it's hard to tell how things will turn out in the tough NFC East. Looking at the Skins performance of 2008 --I can see how folks are picking Washington to come in 4th. But the Skins did make some good pickups in the off-season; and there have been changes in all three teams. ...Time will tell how things turn out in 2009.

bulldog Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 There are a number of other areas the Redskins need to improve in as well before the team is ready to challenge for a division title. To focus too narrowly on the wide receiver position is a mistake. Look at the Titans and Baltimore, they made the playoffs last season without any clear #1 receivers on their roster.

KokoMike Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Please help me if I don't remember this correctly. Last year, before the draft, when the Redskins visited at least one campus, and I think more than one, didn't Jason Campbell accompany them, and didn't Jason endorse them as possible draft picks, and didn't we draft at least one and maybe more of them? I just seem to remember that they brought Jason with them to see if they were ideal for Jason, and Jason endorsed them. I said to myself then, "these receivers must have all the qualities that Jason can imagine for him to become a superstar." So now, today, this issue is all about helping Jason by giving him help at the receiver position. Weird. I'm sorry, but this act is getting old. Maybe my memory is fading. I hope so. (But I will always remember the Redskins glory days, and I will always believe that with the right people on the field, we can win the Super Bowl.)

AKM311 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Bottom line, this team will go only as far as the o-line takes them (just like many teams). This team in paticular needs to the o-line to carry them because we do not have an elite offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregpeck99 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think the WRs are fine ... its the QB that needs to improve. Shein is a Skins hater ... his opinion is lazy and effete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicious Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think the WRs are fine ... its the QB that needs to improve. So we spent 3 2nd round picks on pass catchers because we were fine at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rk3025 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Looks like the new wr's are trying to work with our quarterbacks and this will make the difference in td's So we spent 3 2nd round picks on pass catchers because we were fine at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtyler42 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 If I were to rate our current weaknesses, they'd be:1. QB. 2. No. 2 receiver 3. RT 4. OLB So, if someone steps up at No. 2, it's likely to make No. 1 better. And, vice versa. If Campbell steps up, the No. 2 receiver, even ARE, seems more competent. Overall the spot we lack someone we know can fill the role is strongside backer, but I'd rate it fourth as a weakness because the defense has 10 real nice pieces, plus well-placed depth. You can get by with competent play at strongside given that. I disagree, my ratings would be: 1. RT 2. No. 1 WR 3. QB 4. OLB I don't think Moss is a #1 WR, he is a top tier #2...Combine the facts that he isn't a factor in the red-zone, he can't beat rolled/double coverage(other #1's do it consistently), he isn't very physical going after passes, and he is only a factor outside of the numbers, and that doesn't add up to #1...I will admit that he is currently the best we have, and he is the energizer bunny to our offense but that doesn't make him a #1... I think the WRs are fine ... its the QB that needs to improve. Shein is a Skins hater ... his opinion is lazy and effete. So if we get the same level of production out of our WR corp, but the QB has improved where does that leave you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE OUTSIDER Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 No worries. IMO the more hate we get the better. As CP said, when no one believes in us is when we tend to play our best. So let them continue to hate. No one has believed in this team in years and what have we won? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeen80 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 JC has the help at wide reciever. Devin Thomas or Malcolm Kelly need to step it up. We don't need to add anyone else, just need some production from our current corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD Riggo Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Adam Schein is an idiot! I have subscribed to Sirius since '05-'06, and as soon as he comes on, NFL goes OFF! He's a G'aints fanboy, and besides .. I think he's drunk all the time. Absolutely THE most obnoxious sports radio personality of ALL time. Even worse than Jim Rome!

Bubble Screen Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 No one has believed in this team in years and what have we won? Good point. And I'll also add that we do play in the toughest division in the NFL, by far. Its not like all these guys are picking us last in a crap division like the AFC West. I don't get why people are so upset over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD Riggo Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Schein is right on this, simply because someone besides Moss and Cooley have to step up and catch something other than a cold this year. But it doesn't sound like he based his prognostication upon the lack of effort. He based it upon lack of talent. He's wrong. Should Malcom Kelly/Fred Davis, and/or Devin Thomas step up to their POTENTIAL, we CERTAINLY would not be worst in the division! Granted, one or two of that trio needs to step it up and drop the diva crap, but we are certainly not a guaranteed fourth in the division. Nope. Schein is just sticking to his typical G'aints fanboy/Redskins hater schtick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAARedskin Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Gee, thanks for telling us Skins fans something we already know Mr. Schein. We've ALL been saying for months and months that for the Skins to take the next step, (and be a playoff team) guys like Malcolm Kelly and Devin Thomas (and others at WR) really need to step it up. Duh. Schein's DEAD WRONG about Colt Brennan. It's all about media hate towards the Skins. If Brennan were with the Giants or Dallas, you here about how good he is, and that he's actually better than some QBs in the NFL that are starters.
