OK -I'll agree with looking at that Laughing

Banks has certainly not helped his case recently .. Rolling Eyes

I'd rather get Terrence Austin back, but I agree that Banks should be replaced with someone who can contribute.

- AA, eh...

- Banks, he's done.

- I expect to see a difference at the WR going into the Eagles game. I expect we'll see more Dez Briscoe, that's if his blocking is up to par. Hankerson has been disappointing to put it mildly. A mix up needs to happen and that's the easiest place to have it occur. Moss has been productive in the slot. Morgan has been stepping up more and more but has a ways to go.

Yep. That's kind of what I was wondering about, LPJ.

I don't think Banks is going anywhere. He was on the field for the last play against the Panthers because we just don't have anyone else that would have a chance of taking a ball to the house (not counting RG3). That isn't my opinion that is what Grant Paulsen (106.7 Skins beat reporter) said was the team's rationale.

Banks hasn't broken a long PR for several reasons and the furthest down the list is him! The D is simply not forcing very many punts and when they do a lot are from mid field so they aren't returnable. The blocking has been BAD! Of course Banks could do a better job, but he is far from the top of the list of problems on this team.

Ditch Robinson or Donnie Brasco before you ditch Banks, talk about a Banks being a non factor!!! I thought those two had gone into the witness protection program. The only thing they have done is drop multiple TDs and cost us games.

Three if you count our team.



+1

And, Banks is not going anywhere. Returners often go stretches without a TD. He's got to have opportunities. I say give Briscoe more PT.

Only if he gets some stick um fit his hands. I'm tired of him dropping game changing TDs. I think he has more TD drops than catches.

I'd do that, but AA would probably be cut after the season........

I'm not concerned with this TDs as much as his consistency.
- He is averaging 6.2 yards per punt return. Only one other PR has a lower average with 15 or more attempts (and it's by .1 yard).
- Has negative receiving yards in November.
- He's 20th in the league on kickoff returns

Briscoe has dropped a ton of balls this year. I will cut him some slack, but not much.

I see no harm in signing him, since he does give us some much needed speed and a potential deep threat.

Im tired of people talkimg about speed. Speed dont win games good players win games. We still have one of the best offenses in the league. We have to get better in the redzone and give our receivers multiple opportunities per game to make big plays.

Rg3 gotta go deep at least 4 times per game. You cant go once and to the same giy every week. We use what we have and play these guys to their strengths. Wat happened to the out route that rg3 was so great at they said in camp? Kyle bunch our guys up amd limit ourselves most the time.

Pack dbs and lbs in the middle. you stop rg3s first read. if i know it defensive coaches know it.

Morgan will eventually be our Gary Clark. I see similarities. He will drop some but make the plays. He was a good pick up.

I'm sorry, Morgan isn't even a Ricky Sanders, let alone a Gary Clark! He isn't a third of the WR Clark was. Clark'$ career (if you count his USFL numbers) are better than or at least comparable to Michael Irvin's and he is in the HoF.

No, Morgan will never be our Clark! The closest player in the NFCE to Clark is Victor Cruise. So, if you think Morgan can develop into a Victor Cruise type player then you have much more faith in JM than I do.
