Official THN Gameday Thread: Skins vs the other team

Sad thing is Gibbs has to trot out and play that same BS tune 'Guys fought their guts out" "We're all in it together." "Great bunch of guys." all while laughing in embarassment and supporting Brunell....I love Joe, but Brunell is washed up.....maybe not, maybe its just the utter disgust and frustration of losing to Dallas.

BUT I STILL LOVE THE REDSKINS!!!!

Get over yourself, dude. Snyder is not the problem at the current time. He didn't turn to Gibbs and say "these are the players on my wish list". It was the exact opposite arrangement. Snyder's willingness to spend is the reason why hopes get so high. But still, please at least make the effort to note that Gibbs wanted to bring all these people in.

You didn't acknowledge the first part of my statement... do you disagree with my assertion that continuity is important to sucess? The Redskins have had by far the lowest level of continuity over the last 6 years, and their record shows it. They changed the least from 2004 to 2005, and look what happened toward the end of the 2nd year... a playoff team.

Anyone who thinks that you can just overhaul a system and win football games first-year is a fool. And when you repeat the same mistaken strategy 6 years in a row, that qualifies for moron status. I don't think Gibbs pulls the strings here. I'm also just a little ticked off that we never got to realize the benefits of struggling through the growing pains of building a good team. Every year the foundation was layed, the first floor was built, and Snyder came out and said "it's ugly, tear it down and start again!"

As I said before, Snyder has destroyed the Redskins that I grew up watching.

It is quite funny that I can respond to your 2 paragraphs in just 2 sentences, this being one of them. I never refuted what you said about continuity, even for one second, but clarified that the Danny has not played a large role in two to three years.

The Oline has clearly lost confidence here. They were beaten like a red-headed step child in this game. They got progressively worse. Its amazing how much money we have invested in that line considering how absolutely horrid they played.

This is just it - our guys did NOT play their guts out, especially not the Oline.

My God...can we get Gibbs back? This CEO crap is eating away at me. Call the plays, Joe. Screw Al Saunders.

No Kidding. I SOOOOO don't understand the play calling after the fumble. The ONLY way you call those plays is if you have no confidence in anything over a 10 yard pass.

given what you've seen from the Offense and Defense the past 2 weeks... is this out of the realm of possibility ??

Loyd has caught one pass this year. Suck it up and just let Brunell tutor from the friggin bench.

Al "Overpaid" Saunders calls the plays. Offensive genius...what a load of crap.

Sorry man, but it's true. Gibbs, I think, still won't admit that signing him as his first move was a mistake. He'll be loyal to him until the end.

Does anybody else hate how Madden and Michaels are giving us an excuse for losing b/c of Portis being out? I for one feel that we should be able to win regardless of Clinton's status due to the tremendous talent we have at all skill positions (save for QB, of course).

Are we really this bad?

Inability to rush the passer
Inability to give our own QB time
Inability to cover the receivers
Inability to get the ball to our playmakers
Inability to create turnovers
Penalty after penalty after penalty

I figured it would take some time to get Saunders offense down and I knew that Springs injury would hurt, but I did not realize that we were this deficient.

At 0-2, I think it is time to take some risks. I want to see Campbell.

Here are some of the stats for the QB's today in the NFL.

P. Manning 400
E. Manning 371
D. Brees 353
C. Palmer 352
D. McNabb 350

BOOOONELLL - 124 + 1 Interception.

I don't blame Saunders yet. I think Saunders realized Brunell simply can't pass the ball. Perhaps he can convince Gibbs of this...
