One: It will take time to get all the wrinkles into this offense. Gibbs has a huge playbook, and he barely cracked it yesterday. He needs to lay down that base coat of smash mouth running and pass protection first. Then he'll add the details.
Two: Why take a risk against a Monty Kiffin D? And when you've got a Williams D on your side? Get the W and set the tone!
Three: Pasta ass doesn't want to have to say something good so he calls it a "fairly rudimentary offense." What a load of crap. Do you really think that's all we've got, you bloated bowl of BS? Let's hope the rest of the league believes that and stacks the run. Gee, I wonder if Joe Gibbs has any pass plays? Gee, I wonder if he knows how to trick defenses with shifts and play action? This isn't Marty-ball. Gibbs is a bonafide offensive genius. But he knows better than to have his team beat themselves. One step at a time. Fairly rudimentary, my ass.
Big C, no offense, but you gotta check your sources here. See the thread where Wilbon takes Pasta to task. This is another sportswriter talking, not some hothead like myself on a message board.
