There is a HUGE difference between talent and performance. The Redskins have a lot of talent, but they have not performed nearly as well as they should.
Our WR group is a perfect example of this. Talent-wise, they are probably top-ten, but from their performance this year, they are near the bottom.
Coles has nagging injuries, Gardner is Mr. Inconsistant, McCants and Thrash are solid but not great, and Jacobs is just starting to show what he's capable of, due to the injuries last year. So it is a work in progress, like the rest of the team. People say that they are not a 3-7 team, but guess what? They are, until they prove otherwise....and "blowing up" the roster in the offseason is NOT the way to do it.
This team needs STABILITY more than anything, and hiring Coach Gibbs was the first step in acheiving that.
