Al Saunders Press Conference

Wow, I am so impressed with the organization that Joe Gibbs, and Dan Snyder are building. After listening to Gibbs, and Saunders today I can't imagine a free agent not wanting to come to DC to play. I also think that Saunders put an end to any specalation that Ramsey might stay. When he was asked about the Personel on the team he talked about Brunell have his best year and a first round draft pick with a lot of tools, no mention of Ramsey at all. I think that is very telling. I am really looking forward to March first to see who we add to this team.

:point: :towel: :point: :towel: :point:

Didn't see the presser, but the ommission of Ramsey is very telling I think.

I started to watch it late and i didn't want to miss the beginning so i stopped watching and will wait until they post it up on Redskins.com It went on a long time right? I started to watch at like 2:50 and it started at 2. Is it still going on??

Did your computer "mute" when Gibbs said what Saunders' official job title would be? Mine did, and I'm wondering what the official title is

Actually I think Gibbs said "Associate Head Coach for Offense".

I was excited to see Gibbs say he was doing all this for the fans!!
Saunders is going to give us what we need.

Wilbon had some intersting thoughts about the whole thing, both in his article and on the Redskins' Sunday show, that we might have too many chefs in the kitchen.

I was wondering does anyone else feel the same way?

I think Gibbs has shown his real strength is in personell management and leading. He won't let this become a "too many cooks in the kitchen" deal. That thought isn't lost on him. Let's be honest. Even the most diehard Gibbs supporters(me included) recognized that the offense probably had some fundamental issues that they were failing to overcome. They have had the same offensive coaches for two years but weren't able to get over the hump. I doubt seriously if Gibbs looked at the situation and didn't realize that while bringing in someone like Saunders would help it would also marginalize some of his guys. The move was made because it was best for the Skins and if some coaches feelings are hurt because they get less input than before then that is just the way it is. Gibbs isn't going to let it become a free for all with no singular concrete direction or philosophy.

And honestly Saunders doesn't come without knowing he is going to get the autonomy he had in KC. He could get a HC if he went hard for it in Oakland. He isn't taking a thankless subserviant role here. he is gonna be the offense pilot here and he knows it.
