Bigger waste of money?

Gibbs or Brunell? Gibbs was brought in to win. After we lose to Baltimore, we are 1-4. Spurrier WOULD have a better record than this. We bring in an aging QB to win immediately, though we have a compenent, young, raw QB, and we are 1-4.

I would say Brunell since a coaches salary doesnt count against the cap

Pretty much. That's why I've been saying it's Brunell.

In case anyone forgot, Spurrier QUIT, he didn't want to be here so I don't see how you can say he'd be doing a better job. Regardless of who we ended up hiring, Spurrier wasn't going to be here so it's a non-issue.

i think ive just accepted the fact that gibbs isnt what he used to be, and you guys have not. the playcalling is awful, challenges awful, we consistenly shoot ourselves in our foot. this is all poor coaching. we have talent, and dont utilize it.

i really wish we would have got denny green. in fact, at the time gibbs was hired, i still kinda wanted him. the cards have the same record and we have twice the talent

It's all about execution right now and our severe lack of it, I can't blame all the problems on coaching alone, that's a cop out.

Blasemely? LOL, yea, I guess you are.

Not sure if you're a skins fan or not, but I'm assuming you are - I think most of us fans had high expectations for this season with the hiring of Gibbs. While this season is lost, and we're left playing for pride, I think its important that they keep the personnel on offense intact, because Gibbs will get them back on track.

Right now he's being outcoached, our O-line is playing poorly, Portis isn't being able to run effectively (mostly the line's fault) and the play calling is relatively vanilla and predictable for most teams. I do not expect this to happen through the rest of this season and next year. We will get back on track (even if its in the last few games of the season) and we will be a team to reckon with next year.
