Hey Chump....meet Mr. Taylor

Word out of the Broncos training Camp is that Champ Bailey is once again flapping his gums at the Bronco staff to play wide receiver. Now mind you Champ has done this before. His obsession with playing wide receiver dates back to his Georgia days where he caught a couple of screen passes. His over blown sense of impoortance has never let him forget it. He tried to let every coach in Washington give him a chance at trying out the offensive side of the ball.

So Champ has just received word that Randy Moss is now in his division and he is going to play him twice a year and guess what, he is talking offense again. If I was the Bronco’s head coach I would be locking Champ into a film room and tell him not to come out until training camp.

Champ had a horrile year in coverage for his new team and any time wasted even thinking about offense. Oakland has Moss and Porter, Kansas City always has a dangerous passing attack, and San Diego has Drew Brees is going to want to prove he is worth his franchise tag. That is just in their division let alone other games like Philadelphia, New England, NY Jets, Dallas, NY Giants and yes even our Redskins who all have upgraded their passing offense significantly in the last year.

Now I know that I am hard on Champ. I blame him for Smoot’s departure and a few posts ago I speculated he could easily become the most hated ex-redskin out there. However Champ needs to stop focusing on adding to his skills and perfect the ones he has. The Broncos schedule is tough and their division is a passing one. Offense is a fantasy that he just can’t afford to dream of right now.

That being said I really hope that they try and throw a few screen passes over there we we go visit them. I am sure Taylor and Lavar would love to take a shot at Champ shortly after the ball hits his hands. Maybe it will be the hit that shakes him out of his anti-redskin mood he has been in the last few years.

Or at least give him the decleating he so desperately deserves.
