Disconnect Between Players and Coaches

Not believing there's actually a disconnect between coaches and players. Just think the coaches got some guys out there who can't or won't get the job done.

cut the staff, stop with the bad signings and overpaying players (el's contract was a full 40% more than chicago offered... and i bet arch's deal was cose to 60+% more... i don't think it had to be that much higher, especially since his impact on our W-L column has been so very very small).

Cut the staff? You haven't joined the F Gibbs, Williams, and Saunders camp have you?

I think he means trim the staff. Tell the Breauxs and Lindseys of the world thanks but you're not needed here anymore

I would say there's a disconect between blocking and tackling...

no, oops, hope it didn't come off that way. I meant cut back, like breaux etc. I think we've got too many people and i'm not sure if saunders is necessary, but he'll have 7 more games to show himself. (i still contend he's calling all these outside runs because they worked with 3 of the best pulling OL in KC, but we don't have a roaf, shields, and waters here - so he needs to adjust to what we've got, which is downhill running, more shotgun to protect the QB from dock and rabach in long passing situations, etc). All i know is gibbs offense worked much better than this one (which constantly abandons the runs and seems to suffer from bad playcalling often).

And for as great a quote as bugel may be, he hasn't made a single OL guy play better in 3 years, so i'm not sure he's really needed either.

maybe losing walker hurt our D too...

Lately I've been feeling like there is a growing rift between the Skins' players and coaches. I've always thought that Gibbs' was the right guy to turn this franchise around--but are these players starting to tune out this coaching staff? Are the coaches losing their vigor in coaxing max effort out of the players? If one of these are true, we are in trouble. I fear that it is much worse--that both are true.

What we have now is overpaid and underachieving players as well as overpaid and underachieving coaches. We are saddled with many of these players due to their bloated contracts and we are saddled with many of these coaches due to bloated loyalties. So if you're Dan Snyder, what do you do?
Give us an example of this growing rift between players and coaches your feeling is not being felt here. Are you making up problems that may exist for the sake of talking about a made up scenario.

Do you truly feel that our offense is worse than it was last year?????

I was thinking the same thing.
