Basically the last 12 yrs being the worst as far as ups and downs, high expectations crushed...... Cerrato,.... so after all this BS WE all have been through is it really hard to just give the same HC longer then 2 yrs?

don't bring up Gibbs2 cause I totally believe Cerrato soured, sabotaged ...whatever the hole coaching staff and made it difficult to accomplish anything. Zorn is a prime example.

I wouldn't say I've "been through Norv" because I was more apathetic to the Redskins than die-hard in that era.

I'm going to ignore your pleas and bring up Gibbs 2.0 anyway.

In all fairness Tripp, you weren't apathetic, you were a toddler. I was is in high school at the time. A mess indeed.

EDIT: by "a mess indeed" I meant the Norv era, not me, lol. Although comparatively, Norv looks pretty darn good compared to the last several years.

LOL, how I remember fans calling for Norv's head. He just couldn't get over the hump. Still can't but at this point I'd take a HC that can get my team into the play offs on a regular basis vs. not making the play offs because atleast the team has a winning record. lol. but I do remember hating Norv. and it seemed he called the same damn play over and over.
