the great Joe Bugel
 

i saw the jim zorn appreciation thread and wanted to start a bugel one, it looks like he may retire next year which is kinda expected, if i was him i wouldn't want to start over again with a new system. and i just wanted to send a huge thanks to buges and everything he has done for the redskins over the years. he gave us the hogs which gave us multiple super bowls, and since his return he has done nothing short of work miracles, we haven't drafted any offensive lineman higher than the third round in 10 years and for the last 6 years buges had made the best o line out of what he had and the work he did this year was amazing putting together guys that hadn't played in the league in years to form a line that could at least give us a chance. i wish him nothing but the best with whatever he chooses to do with his career.

personally he is the only coach i want back next year, guess we will find out tomorrow

Agreed 100%.

He's done a lot for us, thanks Mr. Bugel!

re: the great Joe Bugel
 

He did a lot considering what he had.

He's a HOF-er in my book.

Thanks for all the hard work you've done over the years. Enjoy your retirement Coach Buges. You deserve it!

I wish he could coach forever! The best to Joe B for giving so much to the game and the team....I know he loves

Without Buges we would not have three Lombardi trophies. Enjoy your rest, Buges.

I know this is slightly off topic but who was Shannahan's line coach after Alex Gibbs left in 2003?

I don't think anyone has embodied what the Redskins mean like Joe Bugel has. One of the all time greatest, I wish he was going out better than this.
Hail to Coach Bugel!

Man, I would personally love to hear this quote from Buges, even though it would be outside the scope of something he would say publicly.

"You know I was just lucky to work with a lot of great personnel guys that helped me get the players I needed. Guys like Bobby Bethard, Charlie Caserly, and Bruce Allen."

Joe Bugel has done a lot for this franchise, but it was past his time to go. Good luck in the future, Joe. I wish you the best of health for your remaining years.

Rick Dennison I believe

Buges will always be the Redskins' offensive line coach.
