I understand that it is Gibbs first year back and it's still early, but come one, I'd like to see some life on offense. Gregg Williams has brought in a new system and turned one of the lowest ranked defenses into the 3rd best in the league.

Sure, it takes longer to coach up the offense than the defense, but come one, I'd like to see some life here. Pass protection is mixed, run blocking sucks, our offense can't score unless the ball is given to them in the opponents red zone, people are dropping passes, throws are always going awry etc. I have patience and I'll always be around to support the team, but it's not crazy to ask that our offense show some signs of life.

I VERY VIVIDLY remember there being a great deal of consensus that our offense would be unstoppable. What happened to that sentiment? Isn't there a reason to be frustrated?

I think you summed up my own sentiments nicely. I never thought the team would be a playoff contender, I always felt 8-8 would be a reasonable season, considering the turnover and implementing a new system.

My other wish was that the team would at least be competive, since Redskins' teams past had a bad tendency to just give up. Guess you have to watch out what you wish for a close loss is more aggrevating then getting blown out, you are compelled to watch the game when it is close.
