Good old power football.

Ram it right down their throats. Enough with all the off tackle runs, I want to see us slamming it right up the middle.

That's the only way we're going to turn this around. This OL is built for smashmouth, so let's get it on!

I don't know that after going all preseason learning the new playbook that Washington can go back. It wouldn't be much of a move I guess, OLine is the same, Rb is the same etc....

The Key is Portis.

He is the best player in the NFC East. He is probably the 8th best player in the entire League. You notice when he is gone.

One last thing about Favre.
He has to say he isn't interested in a trade. He doesn't have any options. Look at Steve McNair, he had to hang on and on in Tennessee so he doesn't look like the bad guy and the organization can say we tried and now we need to Reload.

Favre would work in Washington.
Who else has the stature as an organization to appeal to him.
Who else has a defense good enough to make a Run.
Who else has all those factors and offensive weapons that Favre would love to have.

When I heard Favre say he didn't want a trade, it sounded like the vote of confidence that a GM give the coach before firing him.

Favre has to play the good guy, the Packer forever, it makes him easier to deal in the end....
