Did the big pile of crap look anything like Brunell? I keed, I keed.

Re: What is missing from this years team?
 

chemistry, health, stability, an offensive scheme and playcalling that are in tune with the actual talent and capabilities of the players on the roster...

At least we're not missing washed-up players!!!

The Redskins' rivals in the NFC East -- the Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys -- have stockpiled young talent. The Redskins, meanwhile, have stockpiled veterans on the downside of their careers. Their opening day roster consisted of players with an average age of 27.83, the highest in the NFL.

Re: What is missing from this years team?
 

I think the Redskins are a group of older players that have already got there big contact and most of them, not all of them, but most of them just go through the motions every Sunday because they know that they already made there big money. Portis & Moss go all out every game on offense on defense I have a hard time coming up with anyone that seems to be playing consistently this year. Marcus Washington hasn't been the player he was over the last few years and this was supposed to be his breakout year with Arrington gone. Sean Taylor just goes for the big hit every play not like Troy Polumalu of the Steelers who is all over the field making plays. I think it comes down to a lot of spoiled players who make way to much money.

The interesting thing about kidwell is he starts a bunch of threads, and never responds back.

He is like a tornado, leaving a path of destruction, and never coming back.

How much does Brunell skew that number? Portis, Moss, Cooley, El, Lloyd (and I'll throw Campbell in here) are all 25 or younger right?

Re: What is missing from this years team?
 

We can also include discipline (or lack thereof) to the equation as well. That's something I never thought I would say about a Joe Gibbs coached team.

A sure fire way to exterminate the "injury bug"!

i think lloyd is 26 and moss and randle-el are 27... and thrash is 31 and patten is like 32 i believe.

26+27+27+31+32 = 143 / 5 = 28.6 average WR age.

Re: What is missing from this years team?
 

list of guys that are 25 or under:
QB: campbell
RB: portis, duckett
WR:
TE: cooley
OL: molinaro
DL: boschetti, golston, montgomery
LB: mcintosh
CB: rodgers
FS: taylor, doughty
SS:
K: Novack
P: Frost

that's 4/22 starters and 2 crappy kickers. (14/53 roster spots).

for comparision, the eagles have 26 players age 25 or less, including their 4/5 WRs, 7/10 OL, and 7/22 starters.

I thought the receivers were younger than that, ah well.
