I dont want to settle for 1 playoff every 5 years. I dont see where this team has progressed in 4 years. I am sorry I dont drink the cool-aid all the time, but dont rag on a guy who doesn't drink from the same fountain. I am stating what I see, what most people see. We are not very good. and I am tired hearing about injuries. That is crap. of the 7 games we lost, 6 we had half time leads, if not 4th quarter leads in the majority of those 6. If the injuries were that devistating we wouldn't have even been in most of those games.
Ok, we can't handle the truth. Bring in another coach, throw him in the same scenario as Gibbs and lets see how successful that coach is? I guarantee you that coach would fail miserably, no matter if he's Lombardi, Walsh, Cowher.

I wish I had such a clear-thinking mind...what's your secret? The beer?


what the hell does that have to do with anything? I can't celebrate a win. I guess when we were stinking it up with spurrier, Norv, Petibone, marty you never celebrated, then said they should gone the next year. I highly doubt it.

It's just funny that you say you were "celebrating the win", yet your first postgame comment was saying Gibbs should be fired.

After all the shit that's gone down the past 10 days, I don't know about you but last night's win was a huge freaking relief. And for at least a few days now I'm going to forget about our problems and just bask in the glow of the W.

Why does every game (win or lose) have to be followed by this same damn "conservative play-calling, 2005 was a fraud" discussion?


Some people aren't happy unless everyone around them are miserable.

Give Vince Lombardi these injuries and bad luck and he'd do no better than Joe Gibbs has.

I guess people want Spurrier or Schottenheimer back. Hey, I bet Norv Turner will be looking for a new job in 2008... Oh those glory days.

I know when the thread began. I just think this discussion could have been given a rest for at least a day.

Call me crazy, but I miss the days of coming to the site to just celebrate a win. We can bitch and moan tomorrow. Why can't we just enjoy today?

Loyalty and past achievements only goes so far.
