Cups can get carried away pouring out the emotions. Keep a lid on that though, I heard Fios is down to his last straw. But I'm with you, he definitely doesn't suck.
Hail to the Redskins!

I understand the logic that if it's broke, fix it. But this is what we signed up for. At least, this is what Dan Snyder signed us up for.
Joe Gibbs never really lit it up in his previous stint. He never adopted the run and shoot, or ran five wide sets while protecting a lead. You know that he is conservative, protective. He would rather run three times and punt than chance an interception and handing the ball to the opposition with good field position.
I'm not saying you're wrong, or that your argument doesn't make sense. I guess I'm saying that I, for one, am not expecting anything to change drastically this week, or the next, or any week after that until Joe Gibbs retires (again). I'd be pleasantly surprised if it did, but I'm not 'hugging my breath', as my three year old would say.
Sadly, I'm not either, I'm just hoping an appeal to logic is being made by someone closer to the decision making process. Again, I don't need to see the Rams offense circa 2001, I'm just hoping that Gibbs is honest enough with himself to identify those things which aren't working. Conservatism is one thing, adherence to a system without an ability to adapt is another thing entirely.

Shakes don't suck... People suck!
That would be a good sig.
I'm not going there.
Hail to the Redskins!

Still, I have to click on it, and I have to read his article.
And after all of this...
I actually (almost) always love the articles.

I'm like a drug ... an inexpensive, frankly dull drug. I'm like Advil.
Advil doesn't work. I'd say you're more like Methadone. Your somehow more addictive than that which you were designed to replace, and somehow, no matter how appealing it may seem to skip our daily dosage, we keep coming back to the THN clinic for more.

Ya know PODman. It is kind of a relief type of thing, He vents in his articles so we don't feel the pressure to do so.

Maybe he's more like Rolaids or gasX.
Relief, vent, gas, what's this add up to? Hmm.
Just funning with words and not implying anything.
