Even w/a scaled back playbook, JC put up some big #s in some games. The tampa & dallas games come to mind. It wasn't the playbook that made us lose those games, JC was just going through some growing pains.

IMO, if you add a year of maturity to JC & another year of learning AS' offense, combined w/a healthy O line, 08 could've been a great breakout year. Also, not a knock on Gibbs, but some people work better if they have more control, & w/Gibbs gone, Al might've been free to run the O more his way. I wish we were getting the chance to see that. It really disappointed me to read that GW wanted to keep Al (according to JLC). that might've been the final straw w/the danny & vinny, who obviously didn't want to keep him.
