Re: With Brunell on the bench...

Well, this thread shows that we aren't going to be short of options when pointing the fingure of blame!

Now that Campbell is getting his chance and we are looking forward to next year doesn't it make the lack of opportunity he had in the preseason games even more ridiculous?

We're now taking nominations.

Let's hope there won't be one. However, we've gone through just about everybody associated with the orginazation already, in some cases, both past and present.

Re: With Brunell on the bench...

There's still plenty of time for Campbell to fill that role. I'm not buying all this, "We're going to be patient with Campbell" baloney. That will last about two games.

I nominate Al Saunders.

Re: With Brunell on the bench...

Oh poor mark Brunell. I feel so bad for him. He fought his guts out every week and played smart for this team. Get over it, Mark Brunell is washed up and deserved every bit of criticism he got. I don't cry for Mark Brunell, he can rot away in his mansion and never be heard from again for all I care.

Brunell has held this franchise back for 3 years now, and it's time for us to groom another QB to eventually be the face of the franchise. The revolution will be televised.

MB does not make the decision of who starts and who sits. So if your going to blame MB for holding back the team you have to look at the coach who hired and started him.

When we all find out this isn't a QB problem, we'll finally start to focus on the REAL problem.

The QB was a large enough problem to make it worth addressing.

Now Gibbs has started the new era we can have something to get excited about. At least until we are shown otherwise.

Re: With Brunell on the bench...

Everybody knows that I respect Joe Gibbs and I love the fact that he's the coach of this team. I think Williams and Saunders are both great at their jobs. It's not translating to wins this season for some reason. Everyone wants to say "the players are dropping balls...the players are missing tackles...the players are committing the penalties..." The common link? Mental mistakes. Why doesn't the coaching staff get judged for this? Because the coach's name is Joe Jackson Gibbs. No one wants to say it, but if he weren't Joe Gibbs his job is hanging in the balance.

I don't think that Gibbs should be fired. Not by a long shot. However, I think Joe needs to step it up and do something. A team who's making mental mistakes and losing by double digit points often isn't preparing well. Does anyone think that Art Shell is a great coach right now? What about Nolan? Or Jauron? The point is the team is playing poorly and I can't put it all on the players. This whole organization is losing football games.

I agree with what Tony Kornheiser was saying earlier today: "Dan Snyder needs to say to Gibbs I'm paying you 5 million dollars a year...you should be calling the plays. You're an offensive genius. I don't see why I'm paying a guy 2 million dollars a year to do something you're great at."
