PATIENCE!!!! Try to be a FAN!! History Lesson

[SUNRA]

History is best qualified to reward your research and Hogskin you've been rewarded. This is a great point to understand. If you look throughout the NFL there are coaches who have been with the same team for several years and still are 0-4. This is to be expected for a new team, new coach and new system. The difference right now between the Skins and the Giants is the running game. Tiki has taken the team's offense on his shoulders and carried the team. Come on Portis. Step up to the plate.

I agree completely with everything stated and it's is good to know that I'm not alone. I didn't have the highest expectations heading into the season, but I sure had alot of hope. The toughest part about the three losses is not that I expected them to destroy the opposition, but that we should have. It is so obvious to me that we were the better team in the last three weeks. But, I am along for the long haul as are all of you.

Gigantic Accolades Hogskins.. We all had high hopes for the return of Gibbs, many hopes were unfounded (13-3 predictions for example) but we do forget that we have new starters at 5 offensive positions (Brunell, Portis, Brown, Cooley/Rasby and Dockery) as well as new players at #3 WR, another key position. Offensively there just needs to be better execution.

Defensively I don't have any complaints.. Smoot has been beat a little bit this year, but Bryant and Morgan both made excellent plays on the ball.. Taylor has made a couple mistakes (Galloway almost beat him week one, the HB pass last week, one big catch by A. Davis yesterday) that he will learn from. Washington admitted he blew the assignment on the Shea TD pass yesterday so that's just execution again.

Bottom line, players need to make plays. Gibbs will make the adjustments to improve the game calling, but as Hogskin articulated, be patient 3 losses by 6, 3 and 4 points seem to indicate we aren't that far off..
