Why not give Marko Mitchell a chance to perform?

Randle El was a big mistake. Malcolm Kelly can't get open to save his life and Devin Thomas can't catch a cold! Why not promote Marko Mitchell from the practice squad and give him 10-15 plays a game and incorporate him in the offense? It's not like he can hurt this team anymore than they already hurt themselves. I know he didn't play at a big college school but if he has raw talent, let him show it and he could prove worthy of a number 2 receiver. Until Santana Moss gets somebody else to draw some coverages, he'll disappear every 3 out of 4 games like usual!

Marko is on the active roster, not the practice squad

He has just been inactive each game except for one in which of course he didn’t play. But I do agree that he should be given a chance. Sure he set the back ups on fire in preseason but who’s to say he cant do it against starters? We won’t know until he is put in the game and I’m hoping that happens soon. I’d also like to see Alridge too. What was the point in bringing him back if they aren’t going to use him?

The point for Alridge and Mitchell

is to shut up people like you and I. We think to ourselves ok, their on the active roster so maybe their is some chance. Well guess what, their isn’t a chance in a hell that these guys are going to get in…..why? Clinton Portis will cry his eyes out. Devin Thomas will get on twitter and start bitching. Vinny Ceratto will be embarrassed when other talent has been found other than the big contract guys and then they’ll be stuck with paying these contracts, just as in the past and that would be an admission of incompetence.

The bottom line is until Snyderatto is gone we’ll be a bottom five team. Ceratto is the worst talent evaluator in pro sports. He’s the Bozo of this league and his egos to big to admit it.

Snyder ain't goin anywhere

anytime soon. So, if we hope to get out of the mess we’re in, it’ll be many, many years before we do if Snyder doesn’t wake up and let some real football people run this team. And I mean run it. No interference from the owner, a real FO that knows what they’re doing, and a first-rate coach.
