I don't know that Campbell throws too hard, but Farve has definitely been accused of that:

ST did drop two ints, but he made spectacular catch on the third one. best catch by someone in a Redskins uniform yesterday. I guess the old man throws a catchable ball nowadays.

it seemed to me that they went away from Sellers after he dropped that catch in the right flat. Don't remember him touching the ball after that.

He can't complain when he's dropping easy passes like that.

Dang. We keep this up (not throwing the ball to a guy anymore after he has a drop) we wont have anyone to throw to and we will just be running the ball 100% of the time.

If the ball hits both hands your job as a receiver is to catch it.
This is truly a ridiculous thread.


WORD!!!!!!!

LMAO, if the recivers are fairies then moss was the Fairy Godmother.

Seriously though, it's hard on JC to get a rythm going with all them drops, I agree it's a problem and that it will get fixed.

hard...that is ridiculous...I will tell you what i see to be a problem...just my thoughts......The Midget receivers we have is a an issue in my mind......JC is a big guy throwing and he basically has to to throw the ball on downward plain just to get it at eye level with Moss and ARE ..Never mind in their gut.....
look at moss's first Drop/ pick....Thats good throw to a 6/1 receiver...to Midget Moss its an interception.....

I see two problems with JC throwing the ball downward on intermediate routes..
#1--our receiveers are just too small....hes needs a big go to guy to play catch with(i know thats an off season issue now) ..can you imigane if JC had a PLAXICO to play pitch and catch with all day....small corners would have no chance

#2--the downward plain for which he has to throw the ball on 8-20 yard routes is creating more movement on the ball...hes not throwing an easy ball to catch..and its not his fault to a large extent anyway...

at the end of the day...our receivers need to step up.....ANYONE!...Like ARE did last week...
Just my thoughts

Its been documented that Farve has broken fingers and actually injured recievers he has thrown to, his career has gone ok dont ya think? Nobody expected him to change, the recievers may have wanted him to, but I'll bet he didnt

+1



Why don't they stick to what's working. how many passes were thrown cooley's way in the 4th?


It apparently has become the Skins' way of not doing in the second half what was successful in the first half. They are the worst team I've ever seen at making successful halftime adjustments.

Too hard was Jay Shroeder. He seemed to take pride in throwing uncatchable balls. JC still needs to hone the arts of loft and feathering passes, but he's coming along fine.

I read he (Fitzgerald) was a free agent after this season..
