First and goal on the one yard line, what would you do?

Paintrain · 09-24-2007, 05:43 PM

Remember, clock is running, no timeouts, less than 1:15 to play...

1st down-Rollout right, try to get Cooley in the back of the end zone

2nd down-fake Sellers dive, flip to Portis sweep left

3rd down-spike

4th down-4 wide shotgun with Cooley as a WR, roll right, try to find Cooley along the back of the end zone or run for the pylon..

i would have thrown a pass on a rollout.somebody would have bound to have gotten open.or they could have thrown a pass to samuels on a lineman turned/tackle eligible play.

Offiss, funny how you haven't been around to praise Gibbs et al after the victories. Would you be happy with anything less than the return of Spurrier and Ramsey?

But your more than welcome to pick up the old pom poms and perform a few routines for gibbs by all means.

Make no mistake about it, the Giants didn't beat us, Gibbs rolled out the red carpet and handed that victory to them, his charity work never stops.

What is that supposed to mean exactly? Does that mean you're going to piss all over the team until what? They go to a Super Bowl? Then you'll jump right on board and say "I've been a fan for over 30 years, blah blah blah" "I knew it all along because I'm a football man, blah blah blah."

Really, I'd like to know what you (and others who have said similar things) mean.

Really it just comes down to those that are constantly negative about the team, and when things are going well they'll sit quietly and not say a thing, and once something goes wrong BAM, they pounce on everything.

We're 2-1, there are a lot of teams right now that would love to be 2-1. Just ask the Saints how 0-3 feels.

I bet a guy (which at the time did not seem too smart) $50.00 that the Saints would not do any better than 8/8. Now that bett is starting to look pretty good.

That's your response? Somehow I'm not surprised. This is why you are without question one of the least, if not the least, respected member on this board. (For those that have any respect for you)

You make people want to break every rule about valuing other opinions, and no personal attacks.

Naked bootleg! Yes...Jason Campbell is fast enough for this to work. Maybe we'll see this play in the future. With-in the 5yd line and executed properly, very hard to stop.

LOL 'explain football', like he's some sort of football professor or something. Please.

Personally I find it hard to explain anything to ignorant, closed-minded, negative fools. Just leave them to sulk in their own misery and let them continue to think they are some sort of expert since all they do is constantly shit on the team.

Im not an NFL coach, I dont get paid Millions of dollars to make these decisions, and with Joe Gibbs calling those plays I would have said 9 times out of 10 we would make it in. We didnt, it happens, the Giants played great in the second half and we choked, but there is no reason to start a thread based on woulda,coudla,shoulda. Theres a reason Gibbs has a bust in the hall of fame, he knows what hes doing, sometimes it doesnt work, but how many teams have gone undefeated in the Superbowl era? Thats right, 1

BrunellMVP? · 09-26-2007, 07:50 AM

From JLC,
"Anyway, we all know the Redskins have choked away their fair share of games since this staff took over in 2004. So I got to thinking how they stood up with other teams, and well, as in the overall W/L record the last 15 years or so, their company ain't pretty.

According to Elias, since 2004 the Redskins have 11 losses when leading at the half, which puts them ... worst in the NFL. Oakland (11) and Houston (10) are the only other teams with double-digit loss totals when leading at the half since Gibbs came back to the NFL.

Overall, Washington is a mediocre 15-11 in 26 games when leading at the half since 2004.

The Redskins used to be the team that got a lead and battered opponents like no one else in the game; now it's the opposite. The rosters aren't nearly as good, the front office not nearly as sound, and say what you will of ownership, game-day coaching decisions, etc.as you consider what this stat means, and what it points to. "

offiss is the football man, tough to compete with that.

Funny that he thinks someone else has an overblown opinion of their football knowledge.

The fact is you take every opportunity to try and come after me and make it personnel, not that I really care it's like arguing football with a 3 year old, he's going to disagree but you know you can't talk sense to him so you smile and leave him be. I really have more than enough confidence than to have to run around trying to conger up respect from others [although I usually find when someone has to drag others into, or site other people to help fight their battles they are all out of facts and just grasping at straws], lets face it your a GIG guy and any one who says anything about your beloved Gibbs is to be ostrosized, I actually have OPINIONS of my own, I am not dancing at the end of some string like a puppet being dangled by JG.

That quote is just precious, I am one of the few members who does not attack people personally for there opinions until they make it personal with me, I may debate with them till we are both blue in the face but I don't make it personal. You on the other hand do nothing but. You continually make personal attacks not on occasion but daily, any one who says something you don't like, or agree with gets a healthy does of basically your an idiot in one form or another from you, lets face it you think your the big dog around here when it comes to the skins, and if I thought for one second you had remotely any real valued football knowledge I would say it regardless of how I would feel personally towards you or any one else for that matter, but your not even close. Your a little dog with a big bark.

It's funny you say to respect opinions constantly, but not when it comes to a criticism of the Skins, why? Because any one who has criticized the Skins under Gibbs has been for the most part right since his return, it is frustrating because I want to win as much as any body, but the fact is we are not on the right track, he is not progressing as a coach, we are seeing the same exact problem now that we saw in 2004, nothing has been fixed other than sitting Brunell, the game has long passed him by and many can't admit it, that doesn't mean I am not going to root for him, it just means I see the same problems cropping up that we have seen in the past and we all know what that leads to. The fact is any one who watched that game on Sunday saw the same garbage we saw on opening day against Tampa in 2004, we all scratched our heads and wondered why gibbs stopped pushing the ball in the second half keeping Tampa in the game? Well here it is 4 seasons later and he's still doing the exact same thing and you can't see it, you keep expecting him to some how come out and be the coach who rolled up the score on team after team in 92' well it ain't happening unless he removes himself from all aspects of the offense! With the talent we have on offense especially in the passing game coupled with the horrid Giants defense the fact that we didn't score 40 plus points is a joke, the Giants don't have a player on their team who can cover any one of our WR's, and their LB's cant come close to covering Cooley, and we did nothing in the second half, if that doesn't scream Gibbs and his coaching ability I don't know what will?

Ok, you've said your piece. I disagree with just about everything you wrote. But I'm not going to get into it any further. We will have to agree to disagree

Let's just move on
