When Norv first became the head coach of the Redskins, his first action was to dismantle the core of the team by releasing its most solid players, the ones that other coaches would have kept to build around. I think Ray brown was one of those players, Mark Schlereth was another. He went to Denver and made all-pro a couple of years. Kurt Gouveia was a solid middle linebacker for us, but Norv cut him and Kurt went to San Diego and continued his solid play for them. I don't remember who released Rich Gannon, but he played briefly for the Redskins, then was cut and made all-pro with the Raiders. That was around Norv's time, but it might have been just before he arrived. Norv chose to go with Heath Shuler and that was a disaster. Norv isn't a good judge of talent, even when he has good players. He set the Redskins back about 5 years when he became head coach here. His salvation in San Diego, as everyone knows, is that he didn't have to build the team. We never should have hired an assistant coach who came from the Cowboys.

Mark Schlereth left of his own volition through free agency as did Ray Brown. Schlereth never had any devotion to the Redskins. As soon as he saw a better deal, he was gone. And besides, Charley Casserly was in charge of personell in those days. Yeah that's right we had a G.M.

I guess we're stuck with the Giants and Pats in the Super Bowl...Duh. Is it worth watching? The Redskins could have been there...

I don't want him anywhere near a winning season.
