JOE GIBBS needs to take control

A) Saunders has always had a stud at quarterback, we have a washed up veteran, and a 2nd year guy we really don't know too much about. Neither one of them has proved that they are as good as Warner or Green, and therefore may not be able to do the same things as they could for their offenses. B) Al Saunders like to run all these sweeps, tosses, off tackles and stretch plays. Guess who doesn't like to run the ball like that? A one Mr. Clinton Portis, and the offensive line!!! Portis makes it known ALL THE TIME that he likes to run it up the gut, yet we don't run those plays enough. We have big, powerful offensive lineman who like to smash the ball up the middle, they're not guys who are used to running these stretch plays. Don't you think Saunders Should change the offense to fit CP and the offensive line's needs?

What do you suggest??? We fire him, and switch up the offense, again? I think that would be a terrible idea. Yeah Saunders needs a good QB, hopefully that is what Campbell will become. It will take a while to develop, but we have all seen what Saunders can do.

Saunders isnt an idiot, he knows the line isnt doing what he wants it too, either we will pickup linemen in the offseason, or watch for Saunders to run more up the gut.

I agree he has gotten away from the run a bit, and I expect him to get back it.

Almost everyone on this site agrees that too much change in the recent past, has hurt our team. There is no point in changing again. Give Al one more year, and then judge.

I have mentioned all of this in my posts in thread, so I suggest you check it out. I think I have made the case very clear, but my word has little to do with how the majority of the fan base thinks.
