believe it or not DHB still draws double coverage even tho he has stone hands.. teams still wont risk him beating their defender deep.. Ocho and Murphy on tha left side.. Chaz and DHB on tha right with Ford running tha slot.. we'd be one scary team to defend.. lets not forget Z. Miller either.. he's always a threat on tha field as well
Supposedly Jackson is a great WR coach so maybe he can help out the young WR corp out this year like DHB learning to catch the football, perhaps??
I bet the convo goes somethin like this
HJ: ok so when the QB throws the ball u catch it.
DHB: what? I thought I'm just the fastest player so all I gotta do is run.
HJ: NO! Ur supposed to catch with UR HANDS.
DHB: but but but I was taught to catch it wit ur chest then use ur hands to cover it up so it won't drop.
HJ: Coach Davis, I QUIT THIS FUCKING JOB!

Lol @ chaz though, I don't think I've seen this fool play once yet... I live in Portland so I don't get to watch much raider games unless it's after another game and the tv station switches it to another game which happened to be a raider game, or a nationally televised game. Unless I stream it which is what I do normally but I'd like to watch my team play on my 52" LCD 1080p TV god damn it!!! I bought this shit so I could watch some football wit some dope ass graphics but I can't even watch my damn favorite fball team lol. FUUUUUUUUUUU!!! Imma upgrade here soon though, last year I had a 47" LCD 1080p 120hz TV, this year I copped that 52... Now the tv size might downgrade but I'm thinking of gettin a 47-50" somewhere around there that's an LED 1080p 240hz TV. Shit is SOOOOO FUCKING nice. Crystal clear. I feel like I'm right there watchin football games n pretty much sports games in general. Fucking amazing!!! Once my fasfa n taxes come Imma def upgrade!!!
ANYWAYS back to the subject, I think hue helping out the WR's will def and hopefully help them grow and improve as WR's.
I just have a great feeling bout hue jackson, he knows the x's and o's in football, well respected around the league, and I dunno if it's JUST me but I feel like he has that "it" factor to him. That he actually gets it.
Now all this could just backfire n I could be absolutely wrong but in the team time I fully support it and hopefully this can be the beginning of something special. Keyword HOPE.

lol @ ur rant but its hard to defend a player thats only played in 6 games the last 2 seasons but the guy has talent and isn't making much cuz he was a late round draft pick is definitely worth the risk of keeping him around for now. As far as Jackson, he's the best hire as head coach since Gruden but i just don't like our qb situation at all and wouldn't blame Hue if Campbell doesn't get the job done next season. We needed a coach that knows everything about the offense and knows what to do to improve in every aspect but Campbell is just not a good all around qb
I think it also comes with stability at the position. that flip flop bullshit last year didnt help build his confidence. If the coaches arent confident in you, how can you have confidence.
Either way, should be an exciting offseason. Carson Palmer is saying fuck you to the bengals. That makes things interesting.
