firstdown 01-28-2008, 12:55 PM But we were better than them. Yes, we had no control over how many games they would lose, but teams are going to win and lose games that reflect somewhat their talent level.
We were a better team that the Saints, and a better team than the Vikings. We can't control how many games they win over the course of the season, but we can control the fact that we have a better roster than them, so more times than not, we were going to win more games.
I agree but it should have never come to that in the first place.
GTripp0012 01-28-2008, 12:59 PM I agree but it should have never come to that in the first place.I know, but the way our scheduled worked, we had all of our tough games in November.
We played a bad game against the Bills, under understandable conditions, but outside of that we just happened to have to play New England, Philadelphia, Dallas, and Tampa Bay in a period of 5 weeks. It should shock no one that we went 1-4 in that time period.
Outside of that stretch of the schedule, we baically had average opponents, and went 8-3 against them. To me, I was not all that surprised by the outcome.
It just seemed like we got lucky to string together 4 wins, but in reality, that's just when we happened to be scheduled against the Bears, Giants, Vikings, and a Cowboys team that was resting its starters and playing shitty football. It shouldn't be a shock that we could win those games.
SantanaMan 01-28-2008, 01:21 PM I am not ready to delve into the depths of doom and gloom that these "fans" who are already sitting on the edge of the cliff are ready to do.
San Diego if i remember correctly changed HC, OC, DC in the last 12 months and still did ok (in fact, in terms of playoff play, they did better this season than last, with a poorer reg. season record), we may not be up there with SD in terms of talent, but we're sure as heck not down with the Dolphins/Raiders/Jets.
Zorn, a former QB, former QB coach will get the most from JC - something which I don't think we have seen.
Blache, in terms of continuity, he knows the players, they know him, the system shouldn't change a whole lot under him.
I am confident that Dan will make the right decision (in my mind, preferrably Mooch, Spagnuolo or Daniels - the ONE guy I am dead set against is Fassel).
SmootSmack 01-28-2008, 01:29 PM What do you have against Fassel?
Dirtbag59 01-28-2008, 01:33 PM RESIGN LAVAR!!! Oh sorry, wrong thread.
SantanaMan 01-28-2008, 01:38 PM The guy apparently got fired halfway through a Ravens season as he was going about it half-assed, waiting on his next HC gig.
As OC I don't think he even got their O into the top 20 in the league - I want our next HC to be hungry, not to be doing things by halves.
maxiemom 01-28-2008, 01:40 PM Yes, Snyder needs to sell the team. He is responsible for the mess Joe Gibbs had to come out of retirement to correct. Now he's set to destroy it again.
Those of you who are taking the 'wait and see' attitude are not taking into account this moron's past actions! The man has been nothing if not consistent! He has never considered the effect his disasterous decisions would have on the team, from hiring Deion Sanders (which, you may remember, cost millions more than that overrated bozo was worth and ended up benching up the much more talented and underpaid Darrell Green), to hiring Shittneheimer, then the worst of the worst, Steve Spurrier, let alone the other many horrendous mistakes and miscues this man has made!
The only smart decision he ever made for this team was bringing Joe Gibbs back. (Those of you who think he was simply too old: what has that got to do with it? Had any other coach been in his place when Sean Taylor died, this team would have self destructed. I, for one, am sick of people selling this man short. Don't forget the laughingstock Spurrier had made it, after the downward spiral led by Danny Boy. Look at how far up he had to take it, and how far it rose? You people need to get some perspective.)
THE WORST DECISION HE EVER MADE WAS BUYING THE TEAM IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!
DAN SNYDER: SELL THE TEAM ASAP!!! STOP THE DESTRUCTION!!!
SmootSmack 01-28-2008, 01:41 PM I see. I think the Ravens disaster will actually make him hungrier. I think he really is determined to proved that was a fluke. More importantly though, I think he could do a good job holding the team together. I think the real work in terms of schemes and putting the players in the best position to play will be in the hands of Zorn and Blache.

1. The all bold, all capital letters act is getting old. That ends now
2. If you only joined this site to rant and rave and offer nothing of value to the discussion take it somewhere else
3. Say hi to the kids :)
SantanaMan 01-28-2008, 01:48 PM Yeah Smootsmack, it could make him hungrier - having looked at his NYG record, he seemed to be pretty competitive almost every year.
Having said I am against the idea of hiring him, it doesn't mean if he is hired I will boycott the team or anything - just that I'd be coming in with the attitude that he'd have to win me over a little more than say a fresh face like Daniels or Spagnuolo who wouldn't be coming in with this shadow hanging over them.
