I totally agree and...... I love it. The more stupid the moves they make the better it is to talk to my deadskin buddies. I've had a field day since Dannyboy took over and hopefully better days are ahead. Dannyboy will never learn and his fan base will suffer. Do I feel sorry for skins fans? Not in the least.

The skins have made some pretty stupid decisions over the years - I grew up a skins fan and it's sad to see this once proud organization flounder under the "leadership" of a fantasy football owner.

Having said all that, if you're sitting there with Jason Campbell and you have the chance to trade for Jason Cutler, I think you make that trade - it's one of the few moves the skins have considered over the past few years that actually made any sense. If Haynesworth plays up to his ability, I don't think you can say he's overpaid.

I would argue that Campbell is not a good WCO QB because he does not have a quick release and is not as mobile as you'd like a WCO QB to be. Having said that, Byron Leftwich is absolutely NOT a WCO QB so this move is a real headscratcher for me.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
