Give Saunders One More Year???

[skinsy]

With all these rumors about Saunders on the way out, I thought this was a valid question. I remember when we hired Saunders, he was very adament that his offense takes three years to finally start clicking. Well, we've only given him two years, do we owe him one more? Would GW want someone else?

I think they should definitely give him one more year. The offense was getting better at the end of the year and they will be healthier next year. Campbell should know the offense perfectly by now too.

[hooskins]

give atleast one more year if not more.

I would be happy because I think those players cant understand a complex offense like his. Go AL

[MTK]

I'm all for him coming back but my gut says he's gone.

A little grumpy are we?

That complex offense didn't look too bad in that last game of the season.

Oh that's right you guys were just holding back for the playoffs. Too bad they forgot the playoffs already started.

They may have trouble understanding it,but I've never seen them cry before.

if the skins want to build on any momentum they had at the end of the year, he has to come back. and with coach Gibbs out of the way, we will really find out how good coach Saunders offense is

[Redskins]

The system clearly works, but it wholly depends on quarterback intelligence, the ability to make quick check-downs, and the ability to throw an accurate pass. Having a strong arm in this system will kill you if you hang onto the ball.

I really hope he's here next year and beyond. Bit like Matty already said it probably won't happen.

[That Guy]

i want him back... not that i have any say.

In Redskins Insider this morning, it was reported that Campbell wants the offensive staff to return intact. This leads me to believe that Saunders would be amenable to return, since Campbell has historically stayed in close contact during the offseason with his coaches. There is no reason Campbell would say such a thing if Saunders expressed either a desire to leave or a strong doubt that he would be wanted.

Your right, but our complex offense got us the same place you simple offense did, except we get a better draft pick.

It was understood in Kansas City and St. Louis.

However, I think it is a valid enough point to consider. I think it was clear that Collins has a greater hold on the offense than did Campbell, so the question becomes whether or not Cambell will be able master the system. That remains to be seen. I have faith, but little patience, so next year will be exciting.

First off these rumors that your talking about are based on absalutly nothing. Its mums at Redskins park and even the inside reporters do not have a clue as to what is going on. As if GW would want him. Who knows. We know nothing and what ever we have heard is just someone speculating with no facts at all.
