The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Why mess with a proven winner? Last week, Washington was at the top of our list as a best bet, and Joe Gibbs will stay in this spot until further notice. Why not? Gibbs is just a flat-out winner. Now, the Redskins have this frenzied, kung fu-style defense that Gibbs turned over to former Bills head coach Gregg Williams. He has the "D" attacking all game long and does not let opposing quarterbacks settle into a flow. Last week, they harassed Brad Johnson, a slow-footed QB, and will do the same thing to the tortoiselike, aging Kurt Warner. Forget about Eli Manning. If he gets a whiff of action, he'll need smelling salts. Mark Brunell played for Tom Coughlin at Jacksonville, and they didn't exactly see eye-to-eye, and Brunell has circled this one, so expect an explosion.
