Saunders' post practice comments--good stuff

Courtesy of extremeskins (it's a pdf file--you'll need adobe or some other pdf reader).

I really like his comments--he's not happy the team isn't scoring, but he says it's all part of a process, and progress is being made. Keep the faith, people!

It's good to see a little optomism returning after our little debacle Saturday night. Keep it going, I love it.

Re: Saunders' post practice comments--good stuff

pretty much confirms what that observant ExtremeSkins-er said. maybe ES gets a bad rap.

Re: Saunders' post practice comments--good stuff

This puts everything into perspective. they are not showing the world what they have, they are just trying different things and getting people into certain situations and going from there.

I feel way more confident than I did before reading that. We have three amazing football minds on our side and I think we will see their genius on Sept. 11...

Can not wait... Hail to the Redskins!!!

"We have a plan going into every preseason game to see some individuals do some things that might not be conducive on a down and distance situation from a game planning stand point. If it is something we need to see, the only time we can see it is in a game environment."

That's what I was trying to say here about Brunell's post-game comments.

Has anyone noticed that after the Jets game Gibbs and others were all acting very pissed off..Gibbs almost used swear words. But after the 41-0 loss to NE Gibbs, Brunell, Rabach, Jansen weren't down and out expressing doom and gloom, they had S*** eating grins sort of during the interviews. And now Sanders statement yesterday...it was sort of freaky, like they, as a team, accomplished exactly what they wanted to accomplish during the NE game; not going for a win (or a TD) but seeing what individual players could do in certain situations.

I just hope to see the offense play a solid however long they play. SOme 1st downs, some 3rd down conversions, some points other than fg's, and some solid ball. I can't say I feel comfy with what's been seen thus far.

Apparently you are not understanding what Saunders is saying, in no way did he indicate that he was going to show his offense in the preseason, no matter what. Not to build confidence, not to put points on the board, and not to give the fans a warm cozzy feeling. He has a mission that he is trying to accomplish in the preseason. I am sure he knows what he is doing, and I am very sure that Gibbs knows what is going on also. Like Saunders said, he knows what the end result will look like, we just have to wait and trust him...

Why is everyone acting like Saunders just came out of a college offense? I mean what does the guy have to have on his resume for people to trust him? Apparently having the top offense year in and year out doesnt mean a damn thing to anyone...

You shouldn't be too surprised, after all people didn't trust a Hall of Fame coach when he came back to the game.

Here is what you need to understand. Yes that was a top offense...but the personnel is a little different here and i dont think they were the top offense when Al Saunders first went to kc. All i can say is i trust the fact that he does know what he is doing. If you good back and look at KC's stats when saunders first arrived. That is all you need to see.
