Chemistry can't be bought

firstdown · 10-16-2006, 04:54 PM

If the blame starts with who's come and gone how do we know that was not Gibbs and Williams call. Snyder I feel would do what ever Gibbs ask as far as a player goes and that would double after he got us into the second game of the playoffs. So who is making the final decision of who comes and goes?

You can be pissed at the Skins all you want after the way they played yesterday – yell, scream, bitch and moan, but they are still the Skins and last time I checked this is a website for SKINS fans. So if you want to flat out insult them, like some Cowboy fan, then get the fuck out.

I do not blame Synder , if I owned this team , and were giving / paying out 50 million dollars in signing bonuses every year ,,, I would be asking Vinny and Joe ,,, when do I see a return on my F'ing investment ? If This team keeps overpaying for punks and trading draft picks away ,,, we will be the 49ers . Wasn't Vinny the genius that destroyed that once proud franchise ? Dan needs to bring in a Gm and let him make ALL personel decisions .

agreed....sounds like a decent plan to me....

I dont understand the contradiction that is the Redskins. Gibbs is loyal to a fault to some guys, Brunell being one, Hall maybe another until now. And he always seems to want to build a close 'family' of a team and we are all together in this. But then the offseason comes and we throw more new pieces out there and wonder why its not clicking. We so desperately need a GM its not even funny.

Thank You with the Steinbrenner reality check. He has won nothing but the division since he started going free agent crazy. Much like our beloved Skins. And what are their issues- lack of chemistry (Arod/Jeter) and aging/over the hill veterans. Sound very familiar to us.

You can make the argument that Brunell is over the hill. Perhaps Salave'a (not sure how old he is) But beyond him who is really aging/over the hill? Remember 2000 was 6 years ago.

I'm no baseball expert so I can't make an educated post on the Yankees, but correct me if I'm wrong they seem to always have the highest payroll in baseball by far. I'm sure there had to have been a few high priced free agents mixed in there at some point along the way. No?

They did have Clemens on the roster in their last World Series, but my point is, all his recent free agent spending sprees have amounted to nothing.

Who the hell knows whats wrong.

I feel we have great players...I really think we did good this offseason.. I think we've got awesome coaches as well....

But we've seemed to have lost something...

Mabye it's really because Saunders is passing to much... our defense is growing tired because it's on the fields for so long... and it has an exponential effect. Smash mouth football is what this team was built to play... and untill we do so.. the problems will continue.

It's really anyones guess... I'm sick of talking about the Redskins, it hurts my head. I'm going to take a break, go make a sandwhich and ponder life or something.

Mabye he should have said... buying a championship with a salary cap doesn't work. If theres no limit, then you can build an ultimate team.

If we had the zero-cap Redskins, I'm sure we wouldn't have any problems at CB depth, D-line depth, etc... so the analogy is probably not appropriate.

We're not "buying" a team. Mabye the thread should be "Chemistry can't be managed by tweaking the free agent system and abandoning the draft" Because thats probably more accurate. I know we have plenty of good players via FA... but the record stands... 2-4.. bust.

PoundIt · 10-17-2006, 12:03 PM

I just saw somebody made the Stienbrenner to Snyder comparison. Sure the Yankees did. But they won their titles when they had young players brought up through their system. They havent won when they started bringing in high priced veterans they got by trading prospects. Kinda like trading draft picks for vets. Of course there are exceptions.
