Next years CASH!!!!

[JoeyHeismann7]

I think the signings were good, but it boils down to as much as i dont wanna say this..Gibbs just isnt that good of a coach anymore! The game is way to different now from what it was back in the day..That being said I still think Gibbs is a GREAT coach..1 of the best who's ever roamed our sidelines. 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.

On the surface, the numbers seem to work, but the players that make up those numbers don't.

Since Gibbs has been calling the personnel shots, there has been a hideous misallocation of resources.

Let's not forget Gibbs was instrumental in the offensive success of the Chargers and their Air Coryell attack in the 1980s. He knows how to open things up when need be.

Joey, I disagree with you when you say that the smashmouth football of the 80s doesn't cut it anymore. Did u watch the Superbowl last year? I may be wrong, but it seemed to me that Steelers won the Superbowl using smashmouth running with Jerome Bettis, and smashmouth defense. In addition, they had the ability to go deep because of Ward and ARE. Plus, much of the reason why Ward is so valuable is because he is a great blocker; we have great skill player blockers too in Portis, Cooley, and even TO junior (Lloyd). I don't see any reason why we shouldn't be successful playing football like that; it worked last year. I think if all the players and the coaches better prepare themselves physically and mentally for next year's battles, we will be a better team who can win with that style of football.
