Snyder, in the past, just didn't know how to run a sports franchise. He saw big names, or household names, and figured the more of them on our team, the better. He's learned through his mistakes I believe. This year, we had definite holes on offense and defense that had to be filled. Also, with Joe Gibbs returning, Gibbs wants players that are going to be "Gibbs players." Bailey didn't want to return as a Redskin, no matter the coach next year. The first excuse was, I don't want to be on a losing team, the next is, I don't want to have to play for yet another defensive coordinator. As much as I liked Bailey, and as much as I respect his playing ability, Bailey had to go, because he was not happy in Washington. I don't feel Washington got shafted in the trade for Portis though. He was clearly the best RB on the free agency market -- and that is what the Redskins needed.
As far as Mark Brunnel goes, as Gibbs himself stated; Joe likes to have the veteren presence at the QB position, whether the vet starts or not. Make no mistake about it, as long as Ramsey stays paitent, he'll remain the future of the Washington Redskins, but Ramsey is got to realize that if he's going to be brought up right and be sucessful in the NFL, then he needs to listen to Gibbs and follow what he tells him to do. Ramsey will be a better QB for it, and even if he does have to sit out a season or two, he'll be the top QB when his time comes.
As far as the comment on people here making "childish" comments here..dude what do you expect? You are a Cowboys fan. When deciding to join this Redskins forum board, you should have realized that you are not going to be positively accepted here. Especially posting negative comments about the team.
