Do you somehow believe that the Ravens passing attack (the team's weakness since their inception) is now improved to the point where they are better than our passing game?

 

New coach and a rookie QB with an arm that will surprise all. I see the Ravens being more offensively minded with a much better passing game, a still stellar defense and MaGahee will have his way, so, no I don't think I sound silly

I think Ray Rice may be good enough to take 30% of the carries by mid-season. So no to McGahee.

MobyzSteel821,

You are right no matter who wins the election their will be at least four more years of Clinton in DC.  Clinton Portis that is.

I don't know about the (or any) title, but I think Marion the Barbarian will have an excellent year.

If I had to choose, I would pick Adrian Peterson.  I like his style and the guy has heart.

I dont see how people can discount Adrian Peterson so much.  Sure he splits carries but so did LT for the past however many years and he still won a few rushing titles.  Peterson is insane the way he can breakaway for big gains, he's my pick for the rushing title.

Also, dont laugh when Maroney is brought up, he was catching fire late last season and if he carries that into this season you will see him gain over 1,500 yards easy...especially with the Patriots looking to go back to a more balanced offensive attack.

New coach and a rookie QB

When has that EVER led to MORE passing yards as opposed to less.

The rook will struggle. He couldn't even hold a backup job at a Division 1 school (Pittsburgh) in College and then transfers to Delaware.

He couldn't handle college competition. How the hell will he handle pro competition?

Flacco has a cannon arm, just like Kyle Boller had a cannon arm. Doesn't mean he'll be any good.

Plus, the Redskins also got a new coach. One who is a QB coach by trade and played QB professionally. You don't think he'll have a better impact on the passing game than a guy that was a special teams coach?

Campbell will open eyes this season. He now has a full season of starting experience, and he's always had the tools to be a great QB. Now they've even decided to draft him some weapons. The Redskins passing game will again be superior to the Ravens, and they'll be better than they were last year as well.

Im gonna be a homer and go with Clinton Portis. But definitely AP has got to be the favorite. My sleeper Willie Parker.

I agree.  Towards the end of the season I saw Campbell really coming around.  The guy has passion and the tools, and now that he has a coach who has played and coached the position I cant see anywhere for him to go but up.  Also, the improved passing game will result in less pressure on the running game and less 8-man looks up front.  The Redskins have a chance to really take a big step forward next year.
