.. hm. Maybe. But I still think out TEAM was a real TEAM last year and if we could get that back (that attitude), we could turn things around.

Re: The Season Is Over

Everyone knows that it is time to rebuild. We had a promising defense last year, and anyone in their right mind should realize that it is easier to improve your strengths than your weaknesses. Our concern should've been maintaining and improving a solid defense. A solid defense provides for more possessions and more opportunities to improve a work in progress offense. Too bad we let our young talent leave (Arrington, Clark, Pierce), and brought in old stubborn free agents who have lost under poor defensive schemes for years (Carter, Rumph, Archuleta, and now vincent....all slow players) Last year was very exciting, and made me a happier person overall, however, it represented the death of us this year. I dunno if i can handle watching brunell for another game, imagine how effective our running game could be with any other QB.

As long as Dan Snyder holds this power, we will never win a superbowl

Yep. I've said even during the good defensive years that the D needed an overhaul. Last year, the Cowboys were perfect examples. They spent their two first round draft choices on the front seven, with Demarcus Ware and Marcus Spears, then went out and selected Chris Canty (DE, UVa) in the 4th round just to be sure.

It all starts up front, for the offense and defense. Snyderatto haven't learned that yet, and I'm not sure they ever will.
