The Skins have made some awful teams look real good this year.

Then when the rest of us call out bad plays or players or coaches out we have to hear them complain that we aren't supporting this team bla bla bla. Notice how those people don't post much anymore.

You don't get instant support from me simply because you wear the uniform.

There's a difference between being a fan and being a card-carrying member of the All's-Well-Feel-Good-Rah-Rah Club.

i dont think he can take it back.. i dont know if he has the power. hed have to talk to danny the guy paying Al millions of dollars, if it were up to gibbs then we'd be in a different situation right now
It IS up to Gibbs. He runs the show....Danny just signs the checks. Danny wants to win and thought bringing Gibbs back would do it.

you are nieve to think its that easy to hire a multimilliondollar coach to run an offfense then just toss him aside in an organization such as the redskins. a man so respected as Al who has accomplished so much is not thrown to the wayside because the coach(not a GM, not a man signing checks, not investers)wants to take back control the control he gave up just last year. thats not how it works.

very intellegent responce
so is you calling me nieve....I'm sorry but I didn't know you were an expert on "how it works." I also belive Gibbs is more than just a coach....team president, I believe.

so you really think gibbs has the ability to fire the offensive coordinator half way through a season?
ABSOLUTELY. I think Gibbs has the power to do anything he wants with this team...some people (ahem) even think he's not washed up or to blame for anything. Hell, Gibbs even takes the blame every Monday. I'm not saying he's washed up, but the game has changed dramatically and he has yet to adjust completely.

hes not in charge. dont you get it. he gave control of the O to Al. you think our O under performs cuse gibbs is calling plays? we made the playoffs last year with gibbs coaching. then he thought, as (ahem) many do that the game has passed him by. now Al has control and look how good our O is. obviously gibbs is washed up if someone else is running the O and they cant get it done.

OK, I'm going to go and organise my socks. I'll be back for the winning drive.

I sincerely hope not.

His style of play isn't a winning one.

There's the biggest misconception ... Saunders HAS NOT accomplished nearly as much as everyone gives him credit for.

Before this season, he has been in charge of an NFL offense for 16 seasons. In those 16 seasons he's helped his team win four division titles and make all of EIGHT playoff appearances. (He wasn't OC for the 99 Rams when they won the Super Bowl)

That's no genius in my book.

I don't give a rat's behind about his offense being ranked #1. Show me T-shirts (the ones that say you won something), trophies and rings.

And, in that regard, he's nothing.

you may be right but hes still respected in the leauge and its harder than we would like to get rid of him.. hes dragging down our O but its hard to get rid of him.. maybe next year we will have adjusted to his style of play but as of right now we still have a gibbs attitude in an Al offense. hes not going anywhere, so sorry to bring bad news
I'm glad you know "how it works." This inside information you have is invaluable.

your so upset about the conversation were having youre going after my other posts with no new insight? wow bright. maybe you could add somthing to what skins freak and i are discussing. maybe not.

So Gibbs isn't in charge, but was able to delegate his control over the offensive play calling? And now he's not allowed to take control back, because he gave it away? If he thought it has passed him by, then where is his confidence? Why is he even staying?

Don't bother waiting for another response from me on this. I'm tired of beating my head against that wall.

I hope we run more slants in the 2nd half.

Well, Betts is looking great and was that Rocky in the game on defense?! Nice to see him get into the game.

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:29 pm

So, we get the ball to start the 2nd half. Does an opening drive TD get us back into this game? Does Betts get 200 yds today? Inquiring minds want to ..................... oh, never mnd.

TincoSkin · Post by **TincoSkin** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:31 pm

we can pull this out as long as we dont throw the ball inside the redzone. our D needs some help but our O is looking ok .. or at least our running game is

SkinsFreak · Post by **SkinsFreak** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:35 pm

Well... Betts looks nice. Other than that... :puke:

Nice to see Rocky in there, though.

I really don't care about JC taking his lumps now, it will pay dividends next year.

Skins have no problem moving the ball between the 20's, but cant do much in the red zone.

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:43 pm

Betts up to 145 yds. Could this be a key to the game plan in the 2nd half?

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:44 pm

Getting close to the Red Zone again. Anyone getting ansty?

Champsturf · Post by **Champsturf** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:46 pm

GO FOR IT

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:46 pm

4th & 2 from the 14. Do we go for it, or settle for 3?

RedskinsFreak · Post by **RedskinsFreak** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:47 pm

This early, field goal's not all that terrible.

It would eliminate what would have been the wrong choice of going for a 2-point conversion if this drive had ended in a TD.

Sir_Monk · Post by **Sir_Monk** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:47 pm

What do we have to lose?

DaSkins24 · Post by **DaSkins24** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:47 pm

Gibbs is a moron.

We are 4-8. What do we have to lose by going for it?

Champsturf · Post by **Champsturf** » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:48 pm

WHAT ACALL....THIS IS SAD....OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS AND GETTING HAMMERED AT HOME AND WE KICK ANOTHER Fing FG
