What the Skins offense needs now.
What do the Skins need offensively to get to the next level? At quarterback, Jason Campbell, simply put, just needs more time in the saddle and he should be fine. As for the running backs, I hate to say this, but I think they should take a page out of the Cowboys' book by using a more deliberate two back rotation of Portis (255 rushing attempts, 78 percent for 956 yards) and Betts (70 rushing attempts, 22 percent for 256 yards), like they use Barber (162 rushing attempts, 55 percent for 796 yards) and Thomas (133 rushing attempts, 45 percent for 521 yards). That will give them a change of pace and ease wear and tear on the backs. They need to overhaul the offensive line in favor of more vicious attitudes and "hungry to win" guys. At wide receiver, I think a little more height at the position won't hurt. They are solid at tight end for now; just keep them under contract for the long haul. Regardless of how successful the tight ends are, the team won't be as great without the true playmakers (WR and RB) leading the team.
That's a rap. Let's see how the rest of the season goes.
Next: What the Skins need defensively.
Need an A. Monk type at WR but guy[s] like him don't come along every day-- but we live in hope!!!! Merry Christmas from England...maybe next year for the Redskins??
