I guess I'm just one of those dumb fans.

I expect more of a team that has the HIGHEST paid roster in NFL history.

I expect more from Brunell, Ramsey, Coles, Gardner, Samuels, Thomas, Portis, Washington, Smoot, Springs, Griffin, Taylor, et al.

I understand that it is Gibbs first year back and it's still early, but come one, I'd like to see some life on offense. Gregg Williams has brought in a new system and turned one of the lowest ranked defenses into the 3rd best in the league.

Sure, it takes longer to coach up the offense than the defense, but come one, I'd like to see some life here. Pass protection is mixed, run blocking sucks, our offense can't score unless the ball is given to them in the opponents red zone, people are dropping passes, throws are always going awry etc. I have patience and I'll always be around to support the team, but it's not crazy to ask that our offense show some signs of life.

I VERY VIVIDLY remember there being a great deal of consensus that our offense would be unstoppable. What happened to that sentiment? Isn't there a reason to be frustrated?
