Saunder's running game is a bit different than Gibbs, but it works better

1)Gibbs is all about power running. Straight up the middle, hard earned yards.

2)Alot of Gibbs running plays are in the I formation.

3)What did we see in the game? Alot of singleback 2-4 wideout, runs. That is all Saunders, and something I feel Gibbs would not have done on his own.

4) There were alot of runs to the outside, with the line pulling, which Gibbs does not do.

Therefore, my claim is without Al, the game would been closer, and now with Al, our running offense is only getting better. Stop hating on Al.

Are you out of your mind? Let me know when Saunders gets his third ring.

Saunders can call a better game than Joe right now but to use a blanket statement to discount the power running of Joe Gibbs is completely false.

Watch the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XVII and come talk to me.
