This coupled with comment's by opposing scout's saying that our offense is nothing special, and the scheme's are simple and easy to diagnois doesn't bold well in my confidence that Gibb's still has it, I guess were going to find out though.

Although it's possible that Gibbs' thinking was "so long as you and Gardner are my top receivers I'm not throwing it downfield..but if I can find some other receivers that may change"

I mean time and again he kept saying the problem is more than just Brunell, I guess he thought it might have been the WRs more than any of us thought

Wow, the Skins would have had a shot at Polamalu or Dallas Clark? Those are both very good players. McDougal is OK but not nearly at the level of the other two.
