I mean we go out and get Lloyd, Randel El, anc Collins to run the system that was a KC for years and we go back to Redskins football. I really am furious at How Gibbs would sit back and let Saunders do what we are paying him for. His system does work we have witness some of the greatest offense in football for several years than all of sudden it does not work here. Gibbs need to do the same thing with Saunders as he did for Williams and let him picked the personnel and call his plays because we know it works. Sorry folks but as long as Gibbs the coach we will not win a super bowl in this era. This is a passing league not a run, run and pass league. I really appreciate all Gibbs has done for this organization but it is time for a knew era. I will wait and see what happens but Gibbs offense will not get a super bowl this era since know the game has got a lot faster and bigger and stronger than the in the early 90s. We need someone who has been coaching offense that last several years and knows how the league is now and has kept up with the speed of the game. I just would like to know what you guys think. I mean look at the numbers that Saunders has sustained in Kansas City as well as in St. Louis(with the help of Vermil and Martz). Even look at his offensive numbers when he was the head caoch at San Diego some time years ago he even was scoring then.
Here is the main problem w/ Gibbs and Saunders. Saunders likes to get 5 guys out in the pass patterns. Gibbs likes to send out 3 and keep everyone else in to pass protect. Gibbs is going to have to give in if this offense is ever going to reach it's full potential. In the NFL you have to pass to score and run to win. And right now our passing game isn't good enough to win on a consistent basis. Can anyone tell me when was the last time we threw for 300 yards?
