Hooskins, I don't really agree with what you are saying. Ok, Al Saunders, and Joe Gibbs are both proven guys in the NFL, but our personnel doesn't really fit Saunders' offensive sceme. A) Saunders has always had a stud at quarterback, we have a washed up veteran, and a 2nd year guy we really don't know too much about. Neither one of them has proved that they are as good as Warner or Green, and therefore may not be able to do the same things as they could for their offenses. B) Al Saunders like to run all these sweeps, tosses, off tackles and stretch plays. Guess who doesn't like to run the ball like that? A one Mr. Clinton Portis, and the offensive line!!! Portis makes it known ALL THE TIME that he likes to run it up the gut, yet we don't run those plays enough. We have big, powerful offensive lineman who like to smash the ball up the middle, they're not guys who are used to running these stretch plays. Don't you think Saunders Should change the offense to fit CP and the offensive line's needs?
