For those undecided out there, our poll says it all. At this moment, 10:45 p.m. on Monday night, our poll says 73% for Joe Redskins better off.

And that's the way I voted.

Two (2) PO teams in four (4) years says it all, since we had little to brag about during the two previous coaches tenures.

Looks like Irish is his own team. I'm actually surprised out of the 100+ active people on this site that not 1 person actually feels the way he does.

I was certain he would feel that way. But you know what they say, even a blind squirrel...

Seriously though, I thought there'd be at least one person who voted that way

I voted for the Commonweath, but I wouldn't say "look at our roster" as my first argument for the fact that we're better off. I would say overall team stability, quality of coaching, and chemistry are three things that were severely lacking prior to Gibbs' return. We're a talented, well-coached, together group with a lot of promise over the next few years. And the best part is, we're more loaded with picks in this year's draft than any year in Gibbs 2.0. Think of the mess that Spurrier left!! No doubt we're better off.

better. old guys are older, but the young depth is MUCH MUCH better... and campbell is in, giving us hope that he can become a franchise type.

Thats a really good point....I mean were a little better off than we were when Gibbs first got here in the grand scheme of things, but you can see our depth starting to shine through in a lot of areas. Were still a little ways off especially with depth on the offensive line, but the defense is getting younger and better. Were mixing in guys in the offense, but I think we need to do a better job getting guys for the long term....I mean realistically our entire 2007 starting oline could be done within two years.

Only Moss, Colvin, and Thomas I think.

Mike Vrabel was as well. Additionally, the Pats acquired Donte Stallworth(Philly's former #1 wideout) and Rodney Harrison in free agency and Wes Welker via trade. They've got a nice "base" of draftees, but with big-name FA like Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker, Roosevelt Colvin, Adalius Thomas, Mike Vrabel, and Rodney Harrison it is kind of hard to argue with a straight face that the Pats is built solely through the draft. In fact, about half that team's starting lineup consists of free agent acquisitions.

and trades. Moss and Welker were both trades right?
