Who makes the Redskins passing game work?

[Breed]

According to this it may be Jordan Reed. Barnwell: NFL's best (and worst) arsenals

Anyone else find those "With Reed, W/O Reed" numbers alarming? If for no other reason than Reed's injury history.

19. Washington
Washington has almost entirely shifted its offense over the past two seasons, going from a team built around departed wide receivers Pierre Garconand DeSean Jackson to a team targeting slot receiver Jamison Crowder and tight end Jordan Reed. If Jay Gruden can get new addition Terrelle Pryor and 2016 first-rounder Josh Doctson going, this could be an effective unit. It's hard to trust Reed and Doctson to stay on the field for long stretches of time, though, with Reed already hitting the PUP list because of a foot injury. Kirk Cousins has thrown 42 touchdown passes against 10 interceptions and has posted a 106.4 passer rating with Reed on the field over the past two seasons; those numbers decline to 10 touchdowns, 13 interceptions and a 86.1 passer rating with Reed sidelined. Running back also remains a major work in progress.

I really, really believe Pryor is going to add something we haven't seen before. With his catch radius, and Cousins's ability to get rid of the ball quickly, we should be able to get by if Reed misses "some" games.
I've seen an article like this before when DeSean was out, how Cousins numbers and rating took a serious hit.

I agree with Dad in the sense that w/o Reed we would be fine (ala; Davis) however, everyone else except Redskins fan are sleeping on Pryor and Doctson. Each teams defense really doesn't have two #1 CB's which is what it will take to defend these two beast.

HTTR!

Here it is......Cousins is who makes the passing game work! Do you think it would be the same with McCoy or Subfield in there?

Nope....not those two, but that's besides the point. Prior to your input, there were zero people selecting Kirk.

Well since those are the only 3 we got, it has to be him! Of course having a good line and a very potent receiving corps doesn't hurt, either.

People see we are the only team to lose two 1000yard receivers in the same year and think irreplaceable.

I think both are potential upgrades, especially in the RZ.

Agreed!!.....Welp, at least for this year.

I don't feel a need to respond to every post but nothing has changed my mine. Me thinks you are just trying to stir shit. We finally get around to some real football.
