I have lost all respect for Joe Gibbs, he continues to stead fastly support MB when everyone knows he blows, thereby costing the skins any chance of a winning season.
That was the Martz offense that Warner was running, not the Saunders offense. Martz was the offensive coordinator, Saunders was the receivers coach in 1999.

There are similarities to Martz and Saunders, but Saunders relies a great deal more on timing. Martz ran a lot of play-action involving 7-step drops. Subtle differences, but definitely different species of offense.

EDIT: I, in no way, mean to defend Brunell. I don't buy that it should take one year to fully learn this offense. After a complete offseason, preseason, and seven games, Brunell should have it down IMO.
