As far as your second statement, a coach has to get comfortable with his players' abilities as well as players have to get comfortable with the coach. This past season proved that a turnover could be the end of the road for that team. I also said that Gibb's did open it up a little towards the end of the season. I think that is something to build on. I am in agreeance that I hope that he keeps to his word. The thing to remember is that we are not getting paid to be the coach, he is. His resume is a hell of a lot more impressive than mine or yours.

I'd like to call a moratorium on Stephen Davis "what-if's". Though a productive runner for Washington, he is now a 31 year old who
still hasn't had an injury free season, and in fact is coming off of a serious injury. Though I wish him no ill will, I sincerely doubt we will see him among the league leaders again. The decision to let him leave, painful though it was, was correct.
