Depressing? So it would be less depressing if we kept the same vanilla defense that can't create turnovers and the same crap offense that can't score? I would call the upcoming moves exciting, not depressing.

Also, I don't really think it's going to be a total rebuild. Offensive line is probably the only position that is going to get a total overhaul.

OMG relax or shut the hell up. That's not what I meant, I am just saying that its tough for me as a fan to enter another season not knowing what to expect. Did I once insinuate that Shanny is a bad coach or that this team won't improve? All I am saying is that right now, no one knows if this will work or blow up. And excuse me if I am not a dumbass like you who gets excited for any big name coach that comes in...wasn't Spurrier supposed to turn us around? Gibbs? How did those work out exactly?

I don't think GMScud's post merited such a response. Telling him to relax when you're the one who called it depressing seems a bit odd. And calling him a dumbass is equally ridiculous. Weak post all around

take it easy buddy. you should have done a better job of explaining yourself in your first post. your first post makes you sound as if your disappointed that the skins are changing things up.
i think as a skins fan you should be excited that the skins are bringing in a new gm and a proven head coach along with a new staff. the skins could not continue with vinny,zorn and company.

Take some of your own advice, my friend. :confused-
The Redskins can't do any worse than the past decade. We do throw enough money around to attract enough talent here to finish mediocre every year.
Think positively, the Saints did a total overhaul with a top 5 pick, new coaching staff, and are about to win the SuperBowl on Sunday..

Man when you guys post together I get confused. I think it's the G combined with the upper cased second letters. I can imagine it would be similar to people seeing me and dirthogs311 posting one after the other.

Anyway thanks for the props on the Inner Pirate Tripp, was hoping someone would pick that up.

Wouldn't say rebuilding, more of a retooling. The only thing being rebuilt is the offensive line and that might not be that big of a job if we draft right and use FA to the max.

well it's rebuilding or "continuity"

one of the two seems to be very popular each offseason

What is there to be depressed about? Are you going to miss 12-20 the last 2 years?

So do you want to keep the old crappy offense? We're 4-12, w/ a new coaching staff, thats what they do. If it takes a year or two of bad teams to have 10 years of success isn't that worth it?

dallas went 1-15 but built a 3 superbowl winner, manning went 3-13 or something like that and has had one bad year since. if we go 4-12 but build a solid foundation, i will live. i want to see a commitment to building and sustaining greatness, if there are bumps along the way, so be it. another thing that Allen said, Shanahan has a plan and is installing it and discipline. after the way our O and D played they should be re-visiting both.
