Re: Should Al Saunders return in '08?

I've also started to wonder whether Saunders will choose to move on to bigger and better. He was so successful when he had control of the reigns in KC, and anyone can imagine how frustrating it's probably been to compromise in offensive stategy (particularly in regard to being "influenced" to call 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 run plays in a row when every guy on the opposing team knows exactly what's coming). I remember the heady day of KC's #1 offense very well and that kind of thing NEVER happened.

Anyway, Saunders may have better opportunities emerge outside D.C. and I think it would leave us in worse shape.

I agree with the first sentence...Saunders should be given full control. Disagree with the second sentence. Full control could be given to Saunders even while Gibbs stays as HC. Just give Gibbs a toy/fake motorola headset.
