I think it should DEFINITELY be ABrown. He's fast and he has good vision. I don't think we should get SMoss involved in ST.
I saw this poll on redskins.com; what do you guys think?

brown

I agree with batman 110%. Let Moss stay at WR only, no injury risk...plus Brown did a great job thos last games... good quickness, I mean, his performance is what garaunteed him a spot on the 05 roster... he officially didnt have to worry after those games about being replaced...

You can hear them talking trash on the video on Redskins.com (Brown & Moss) on who won in a race. I believe it was Brown but barely.

No hes not faster than moss...I actually read something that moss and his came 1-2 in a 100 meter competition in high school, but I still think A brown is better

I think they raced at practice and Brown won. Watch the video on Redskins.com. Its passing drills.

i think i heard some where that brown ran a 4.18/40 in his rookie year with the bills so that is fast,i want brown returning so moss doesnt get hurt, cause if moss goes down, the offense is in trouble

Thrash. He may not be the flahiest pick, but, boy, does the man take pride in what he does. He's a Special Teams Stud!!! His experience, his passion for the game, and his energy would make for a dealy combination on kickoffs and Punt returns.

Plus, he's, like, our 4th WR, right? Risk factor is less than having Moss back there.

I'm not sold on Brown as a return man, yet, but, he, too, could be nice back there.

But, my first choice is Thrash.

My first choice is ABrown then JThrash comes in. JThrash is a great ST player but I do not believe he is as explosive as ABrown was last year.

Keep in mind that Chad Morton was also described as "explosive", and HIS tenure as a Skin might be nearing an end.

Hopefully, Brown can learn from Thrash what it takes to excel on ST; if he can combine his speed with Thrash's "expertise", he could be deadly. :up:

Yeah, Chad was supposed to be explosive....but he never was in Washington. (I do think he returned one for a TD against the Saints...right?)
ABrown has already proved to us that he IS explosive. Those kick returns were awesome!!! (other than the one that he fumbled)

Redeemed, I think you're talking about JThrash being a great all around ST player, which he is. I'm saying ABrown is an explosive KR and PR, only.

I'm split on this one. All three of them are very fast. I have faith in Morton and how much potential he has. Therefore I would like to see Morton and Brown on KR, but since neither of them are very good at PR, I'd like to see Moss returning punts.

i had to stop you realquick , jame thrash is not fast, atleast any more, he cant run away from any one any more

but i do like thrash running skills in the open field.i think thrash and a brown should share time returning kicks and punts

I just feel like a brown is so fast,allhe needs is a lane one piece of daylight and his gone, his kinda like lewis that kick returner from the saints

Brown and Thrash will be back there.

and thats a good thing.

Morton needs to be released. He can't play RB for us, he was a mediocre return man. He never had a fumbling problem but we need more than someone who can just catch the ball and get tackled after a two yard gain. We need a threatening S/T squad.


Brown gives us the push we need. He's fast, he has a quick burst, and seemed to be pretty decisive. He fumbled one ball but I dont hold it against him. He did more in his 2-3 games than Morton did his entire Skin career, for that he was excused. I was excited to see him and I felt like he could take it home at any time.

Thrash isn't much better than Morton, he's a safe and secure return man who can still get positive yardage. He'll be a great mentor for Brown. This is one of Thrashes many roles, thats why he's hear. Not to be our #1 but to be our #1, #2, and #3 man in many faucets, he's a great leader, locker room presence and one of our best acquisitions last year.

It should be ABrown hes good and fast, i dont want any injuries happening to our Top receiver...

I picked other....

A. Brown will return punts, Thrash will more than likely be his backup.

L. Betts will return kickoffs with Thrash back there with him

Moss may see a return or two at both KR and at PR

Chad Morton

I picked Antonio Brown.

But if it were Madden, I'd go with Moss. Brown's speed on Madden is probably 80.

I like Brown and Ladell Betts back there.

Ladell Betts can return some kicks.

Yeah he can. I don't understand how though...he's not really that fast...I guess he's hard to take down???

You don't have to be fast to return kicks. Good hands and vision are far more valuable than speed.

K lets just put mccants back tehre I bet he has hands and vision but hes slow as crap...to be explosive you need speed thats what Brown brings hes can take it to the house at any time and that element is something that can put fear in to opposing teams
