So your solution to the problems is what?
I'll give you the "Gibbs is God Crowd" answer.
"If he is that bad he wouldn't be in the Hall of Fame"
Great answer, but how does that fix the problems.
Ready for the fix, Put Gibbs in as GM and bring in a younger coach.
A fresh look would be "fresh"!

I see. So you're a fan of constantly changing the coaching staff. And if that "younger coach" isn't successful, you just keep switching coaches, correct?

to me portis didnt seem to happy this year, even at the start of the season. i hope he doesnt want out, but i wouldnt be too suprised if he pulled a coles. portis just seems like a guy who cant stand to lose, even moreso than most atheletes, and if he takes too much losing he cracks
Well he did get hurt in the first preseason game, so he's been playing catch up ever since. I think Portis saw the handwriting on the wall, and the season is too long to start off injured and expect to get healthy. Frustrated, I can see, but unhappy never.
Campbell starts!
[quote=Mattyk72;244936]It really makes me wonder what they're going to do about the offense next year. Is Saunders outta here? Or does Gibbs make him incorporate the running plays that Portis likes?
If you think this Al Saunders offense solely you need to study a little harder.
This smells of Joe Gibbs and it stinks. The same offense we saw in the playoffs last year, only the Skins have more Wide outs this year.
Not sure what you've been watching this year but it's definitely not a Joe Gibbs offense. Outside of the Cowboys game where we saw some counters, this running game is Saunders all the way. Smarten up kid.

Gibbs starting coaching the Skins in 1981 and that was 25 years ago. You're 33 which would make you 8 when he started coaching.
So, who much Gibbs football did you grasp during his 1st tour in DC? MAybe 3 years?
I went through the first 11 and now 2-1/2 sonny boy. So, I am pretty sure I can tell Gibbs coaching when I see it.
Gibbs football is more than counters and someone who has watched the Skins during each of Gibbs run knows better.
Keep studying oh wise one. Someday you'll know what playing not to lose vs playing to win is all about.

how's our running game this year in general? it has suffered much from this year's playcalling and Brunell's tendencies as a passer.And now it's Brunell's fault that we can't run the ball. He must be the worst QB at handing off in the league.
Quick, when it doesn't improve under Campbell, what is the excuse then? I want to know ahead of time so I can prepare myself.

We have run the ball, albeit inconsistently. But, Brunell is partly to blame for the running game not being better as no defense in this league respects our non-existent deep passing game. Forget deep passing game, no defense in this league respects our non-existent intermediate passing game. Defenses simply target our tailback or pin their ears back and go for Brunell because they know he can't throw deep enough to make them pay for their aggressiveness.
Ugggggg, the never-ending Brunell debate. The Ramsey-debate version 2.0 and I'm partly to blame for it.
