I noticed there was less motion from the wide receivers and H-Back.
Is this do to the delay of game calls in the past weeks?
This worries me, since the "motion" was Gibbs trademark.
Instead of reducing it the Redskins should PRACTICE it so they can use it properly and effectively.

Definitely less motion and shifts last night. I read in an article this weekend about how after the 0-5 start in 81 that Gibbs switched to the singleback formation in order to help protect the qb and that turned around the season. I don't think a qb change will turn around this season, but a similar fundamental adjustment to give the defense something else to think could turn this season around.
5 in a row or we don't go!

Well we didn't have as many false starts this week, maybe that's why!

Gibbs and Bugel are still teaching, still drilling the offense into them.
This is not the '81 team, which started with Monk at WR, had Joe T at QB, Riggins, and all those new guys we now call The Hogs.
Gibbs made adjustments then, and he's doing it now. If I had to guess, (and I don't have to, but what's the fun of not guessing???), Brunnell has one more start. Win or sit.
Furthermore, I think the OL needs a RT. No, Jansen isn't going to miraculously walk into the huddle, so that will be a problem for the rest of the year. I tried watching the line-play on Monday, and Jones looked baffled a few times. Ray Brown, good old Ray Brown, is a backup. There's a hole.
