Re: Looking ahead, it's only going to get worse

I agree with most of you but these changes you won't see. Basically you and I are writing off the season with the reality check that was written, but anyone as a HC in Zorn's position has to believe in his system and keep plugging along in hopes that they catch a break and win a few games. If Zorn is going to write off the season he might as well sign his own pink slip, saying my system does not work so let me play all the young guys so they will have in game experience for the future that I won't be a part of. Not going to happen.

Now if they bring in a new HC he may want to play the young guys more to see what is servicable and what is not. This way he knows what he has going into the next draft.

I just have a hard time believing DS is the boy in the plastic bubble. He does not read the papers? He does not listen to the radio? He owns a sports franchise and he doesn't watch ESPN? I would hate to think he has so secluded himself from society that he has no clue that the fans are pissed, that everyone to include fans, media, and any prospect HC's don't like Vinny cause he's an not that great at what he's supposed to be doing. DS has to know by now that in order to get the HC talent he wants Vinny must go and he needs to take a back seat approach.

I picture the whole Elvis circle of friends hovering around him keeping him from seeing, reading, or hearing anything negative about him or his football team.

He will have a rude awakening at the future home games if he is oblivious. BOOOO BOOOO

It's not that Snyder has no clue that the fans are pissed and think Vinny is a retard. He's just so incredibly arrogant that he'd believe the entire world was wrong before ever questioning himself. So that's basically it -- hundreds of thousands of people can see the problem, but that doesn't mean squat to Snyder. He's right and everyone else is wrong.

Re: Looking ahead, it's only going to get worse

How is it that Jeremy Bridges wasn't good enough to make a team with a cruddy O-line, but he can make the active roster of a team that was in Super Bowl last year? And didn't he start 14 games last year for the Panthers... one of the most dominant run teams of a year ago??? I wonder if we could use him right about now.

Re: Looking ahead, it's only going to get worse

I predict that we turn it around, go 8-3 from now, finish 10-6, and make it to the NFC championship game.

There. Someone had to say it.

Man...does anyone have faith these days? You need to believe in these guys Lotus.

I personally believe that we will go 12-0 from here on out and then play in the Super Bowl on Feb 30th...Hail to the Redskins!

You said the Super Bowl was Feb. 30 and I believed you. I bought in to what you had to say and went out and bought tickets from a scalper who told me he had a boatload of tickets for the Feb. 30th Super Bowl. Now I find out the Super Bowl is Feb. 7th and I'm out 1500 dollars! I thought this was a board for educated posters and now I'm not only out of my money but out of my dream of attending a Super Bowl! As long as people keep putting this kind of stuff out there we''ll keep putting money into the pockets of crooked scalpers and the corruption will never end!........... J/K Tee.

Re: Looking ahead, it's only going to get worse

Joe Bugel if your the GURU everyone says you are than we should be okay with moving
Heyer LT, Mike Willaims RT and Rhinehart or Montgomery to RG. We have a week to get them up to speed. We better hope no other Lineman go down or we are up a creek without a boat.
