AP Article: Redskins offense back to square one!

[sportscurmudgeon]

Sorry, but I've about had it with Joe Bugel and his "tough talk" about "our way or the Trailway".

Excuse me, Assistant Head Coach - Offense Joe, but you've been here for 4 seasons now and have had time to develop all the toughness and dedication you ought to need in your OL. The problem actually is that you managed to acquire/developonly four or five competent offensive linemen and when a couple of them got hurt you had nothing behind them who could get the job done. Oh, that happened in years past too so I guess you didn't learn from those experiences.

You are the legendary "Hog-Master". So, what great offensive lines have you actually developed in the last 15 years? I think the answer to that is zero.

Maybe - just maybe - the Hogs were great because there were at least 3 and maybe 4 outstanding talents on that line at the same time and just about any good line coach could have made them into a dominant unit. In your subsequent stops in the NFL - including your reincarnation here - the offensive lines have been sub-standard most of the time and marginally above average once in a while.

Maybe you should be one of the guys at the Trailways Terminal with bags in hand? Maybe you should be first in line?
