6 active WRS?

Some interesting pre-game roster decisions in this post from RI.

I was really surprised Montgomery was not active, simply because of how
much I expected Haynesworth to be on the field Sunday. The coaching staff chose
to have rookie wide receiver Marko Mitchell active in Week 1, and it came down
to a decision between Mitchell and Montgomery, Coach Jim Zorn said.

"That was an issue for me," he said. "The issue for me was really going to be between Montgomery and Marko Mitchell. I had some four wide receiver stuff, and I didn't
want a receiver to go down and take us out of that. I left Marko up thinking
that we could put Phil Daniels inside if we got into trouble."

So the Redskins had 6 receivers active for the game:
Moss (1)
Randle El (slot)
Kelly (2)
Thomas
Kelly
Mitchell

What, is Jason Campbell about to turn into Drew Brees?

Apparently Jim Zorn feels that an explosive passing offense is just around the corner. During the game the Redskins ran only one play for Thomas, a reverse, and did not use Mitchell even though their first red zone visit was a perfect opportunity.

Next week, just load up another D lineman or O lineman.
