You people have to learn paitence. With yesterday's game I noticed that playing calling has improved (because Gibbs is the man when it comes to adjustments!!!) and Portis played much better. I thnk Gibbs realized that having more "Clinton Portis" designed plays in there gave him loads of confidence and looked how it payed off! Clinton was also gaining more yards via the counter gap. If our run game continues to improve, it is going to take loads of pressure off of the passing game and in fact it will open up the passing game more. Teams are going to have to bring up more guys to plug the holes which will get the receivers downfield open! Now, MB getting the ball to those receivers is one thing, BUT the running game is what usually sets up the passing game in Gibbs' system, so we are starting to see that come together. I think we have a pretty decent chance against the Packers...even though the Packers might be slowly getting themselves out of their hole, I feel we can score against their defense! It would be nice to get another win before we play Philly, because we need the confidence.
