First and goal on the one yard line, what would you do?

Shows what you know. Clearly, what this team is lacking is a statue of liberty, double reverse, hook 'n ladder, option pass from the one. Damn that conservative run the ball approach!

No one ever wins with a predictable playcall. You never go to your strength, always go for the surprise.

I would have done exactly what the Redskins did except with different players. Portis for Betts mainly. And the route that Sellers ran, I'd have run a route where he's already in the endzone when the ball is thrown. Not where he has to catch it and run in

We are making this more complicated than it needs to be.

1st down. Instead of spiking the ball line up in shotgun and either throw it in the end zone for a td or it's incomplete. That way if we don't make it in on 1st down we can re group on 2nd down and get CP in the game. Or bring in Lloyd on 2nd down since he can jump so high. Throw him a lob pass or a slant. Either way you don't spike it with a minute left.

Even after those plays failed you would still run them? And you would substitute a smaller back in Portis for Betts to run over people? and then you would run a slant off tackle with a stacked D-line waiting for it? Nice!!!!!!

I don't think that just because a play doesn't work once you never go back to it again. I also don't believe that Betts 2 pound advantage over Portis is worth sitting CP on the bench for.

Offiss, funny how you haven't been around to praise Gibbs et al after the victories. Would you be happy with anything less than the return of Spurrier and Ramsey?

It's even funnier how you selectively don't pay attention. And even funnier that you would anoint Gibbs after 2 games against teams that are not that good who were in position to tie, or beat us in the final 2 minutes, or in OT, this last game against the Giants is exactly why I didn't, or wont jump on that bandwagon until it actually arrives, I wanted to make sure a different Gibbs was in the house now that we have a real QB, but unfortunately it's the same old story we have been watching since his return, he treats the football like it was made of plutonium, we lost to the worst of the 3 teams we have played blowing a 14 point lead at home in the second half, what a complete an utter joke. But your more than welcome to pick up the old pom poms and perform a few routines for gibbs by all means.

Make no mistake about it, the Giants didn't beat us, Gibbs rolled out the red carpet and handed that victory to them, his charity work never stops.

What is that supposed to mean exactly? Does that mean you're going to piss all over the team until what? They go to a Super Bowl? Then you'll jump right on board and say "I've been a fan for over 30 years, blah blah blah" "I knew it all along because I'm a football man, blah blah blah."

Really, I'd like to know what you (and others who have said similar things) mean.

Really it just comes down to those that are constantly negative about the team, and when things are going well they'll sit quietly and not say a thing, and once something goes wrong BAM, they pounce on everything.

We're 2-1, there are a lot of teams right now that would love to be 2-1. Just ask the Saints how 0-3 feels.

I bet a guy (which at the time did not seem too smart) $50.00 that the Saints would not do any better than 8/8. Now that bett is starting to look pretty good.

I have found trying to explain football to cheerleaders is usually fruitless. Just leave them alone and let them cheer, cause they will never get it.

That's your response? Somehow I'm not surprised. This is why you are without question one of the least, if not the least, respected member on this board. (For those that have any respect for you)

You make people want to break every rule about valuing other opinions, and no personal attacks.
