I love the move. Not only can KC air it out and put up a ton of points, but their ground game has been ridiculous. They do have great players, but some of that has to be scheme. I'm not willing to believe that Larry Johnson is head and shoulders better than Clinton Portis, despite what many of you all thought at the end of last season.

I think this was a great move and I will definitely help out this offense. It's almost hard to believe how much the Skins are willing to spend on coordinators. Think about it, is Gregg Williams or Saunders good enough to pay at least 3 mil a year to try to get them out of Washington? In my book, not only did they get great deals to be here, they're almost cost prohibitive as head coaches, now.

AWSOME move. This is a guy who can come in and run the bread and butter of the Redskins (rushing the football), but who knows how to mix it up alot better than I think Coach Gibbs had at the end of the year.

In addition, I think its a great move by Gibbs, he recognizes the problem and is willing to do anything to win; even at the cost of taking a step back in the playcalling.

Sweet move! Uncork the champagne boys and girls....super bowl XLI, here we come!

On another note, how embarrasing for the Washington Post. They've been completely clueless about skins breaking news this past year.

Just wondering......doesn't Al Saunders run a lot of stretch plays? Also, I think he mixes in counters, sweeps....etc.

The passing game is where he'll make the biggest impact. Look for Cooleys numbers to go up next season.

Kansas City Free Agents

WR Chris Horn (RFA); No compensation
WR Marc Boerigter
QB Todd Collins
QB Damon Huard

Some Wide outs that could end up on our team, as well as a possible veteran backup to replace Ramsey if we decide not to keep him.

If they'd stop paying people like Sally Jenkins, perhaps they could actually get someone who's interested in covering the team.

Agreed. In fact, I would say it's probably more the scheme than the players. KC has had a very successful passing attack for years with guys like Eddie Kennison, Johnnie Morton (before this year), and Dante Hall as wide receivers. Talk about getting the most out of sub-par players. Nothing against them, but they really aren't superstar WRs. Of course, everything is easier on offense when you have an O-line like they've had. Either way, I'm very excited.

Oh, and yes, Cooley should go off this year.

Too funny. The first I did was look to see who their FAs were but they were so worthless I didn't bother even posting them. I don't see one guy who I think the skins will make a move on. I guess maybe Boerigter or Huard(if Ramsey is gon) but there are a lot better options out there.

Wow, great news. The only bad thing is we have to wait another 7 months before football starts again. Great move though.

LOL,

Yeah Boerigter is coming off of a torn ACL, and I think Collins was the back up so he would be the most likely one to sign.

But all in all, they dont have crap.
