I think its time me hangs it up. Smashmouth football of the 80's dont cut it anymore! It just kind hurts me and Im sure all of you to see Gibbs not suceed!

Uhm, yeah. Thanks for playing. The game isn't way different, but the personnel evaluation Joe has at his disposal sure is. Bobby Beathard and (even though he was nowhere near as good) Charlie Casserly were two of the key reasons the Redskins were so consistent back in the good 'ol days.
To respond to the post that said that last year we were all cheering for FA and this year we're dogging it, I guess the problem with buying pieces for a team is that if those pieces don't work out (injury, or if they totally Arch Out), you've got no reliable young developmental talent in the hopper. That's the single biggest concern I have right now. Even if we were in the playoff hunt, I'd be worried that we aren't building on a plan for a stronger organization that is going to be a perennial contender again.
One and done isn't good enough, and we aren't even there yet.
