Saunders' offense will work, it's still just football and not brain surgery, 700 page playbook included. We go through this every year, first Portis wasn't "suited" for Gibbs power running style and he bounces back to set a Redskins record for rushing yards. Then Coles thought the offense was too limited, and Moss comes in and sets the Redskins single season mark for receiving yards.
Rome wasn't built in a day. And while we all see the continuing struggles of the Redskins offense it's not related, its a new year with all new struggles. Some of the symptoms may be the same, but once Portis gets right I think we'll see the rebirth of cool around here.
By the way, I'm new to the DC area, where is a cool place to watch this Sunday's game in the Springfield-DC area? Preferably Metro accessible...
