funny i was thinking the same exact thing. If you take a look at the successful franchises in this league they all have one common denominator....most have a real gm. Not an owner and his "yes" man making personnel decisions like they are throwing darts at pictures of players they want.

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
True....so true..
I agree with the owner statement, however the owners not the guy, running, throwing or catching the ball, and he's damn sure not making any tackles. Anyone that on the field is supposed to have a shot at doing something great. Now that we have a season with one offensive scheme under our belt we need to play another one.....no changes, no big named players...just do it and see if it will work. They have been trying to judge a scheme off of one season and that's just not right.

Nice post, word of warning OVM, you can't take shots at Brunell, Portis, or Gibbs, it's a site rule. And the name Ramsey has been stricken, so let it be written, so let it be done. |

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
Someone said earlier on that Danny Boy would not settle for second place. Good thing because usually under his reign the team has been finishing in fourth place.

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
Yeah nothing too much can be said about team chemistry Pete. My uncle is Earle Bruce the ex OSU football coach from the 80's. His first team in 1979 was 2 points away from a national title and ended up 9-3 the following year, with virtually all the big names back. He said the 1979 team just gelled well while the 80' squad was just a bit off sync. The difference was that in 1979 he had some "second tier" players that were able to contribute in a big way.
I have to also agree with 724 Skinsfan, in that with Marty we had something good going. Even with Norv we were competitive for the most part. IF I could pick between my monniker(Gus) and JC I would pick Gus in a heartbeat. I pushed a lot for JC to start last year in the Wash Post forums, but I am not sure he will get us to the promised land. Gus made guys like Westbrook and Leslie Shephard look like all pros at times. Still miss those shootouts with Plummer and the Cards!!! Damn those were fun days. |

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
Call me crazy, but i think were going to turn things around this year in a big way. Jason Campbell really looked amazing at times, and he was never rattled, hes a true leader. Our defense was killed by injuries and that lead to the embarrasing stats other teams were running up against us. With everybody back, plus the additions of Smoot, Fletcher and Macklin, we not only added depth but we added leadership as well. Im excited about this season, we stayed away from highly paid free agents, and we didnt give into the bears rediculous demands for Lance Briggs. Hail to the Redskins

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
Is it possible to get it codified so that mentioning any of those topics gets some kind of ban? Maybe something in the area of 3 months? Otherwise it is going to be 2025 and we are still going to be getting manifestos like this.

Re: What's wrong With this Team?
All of this talk about what's wrong with our team has got to end. There are at least 20 teams in the NFL that have to ask themselves that same question every year. Its not just us. Competition in the NFL is great. The Saints beat every team in the NFC East excecpt us. But, we were the only NFC East team that didn't make the Playoffs.
