Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
I'll always be a GW fan b/c of the way he gets a D to play together. He gets the most out of the talent he has. I'm kinda scared what we might see next year w/out him here.
AS deserved better than this. I'm not saying that he should stay, as i think that is the decision of the new hc, but AS is a top 3 offensive coord in the league. I know we're all fans here and all but i've got to let it be known to those of you calling for AS head...our offense is not loaded w/ talent...it's got some talent but it's not as loaded w/ talent as alot of us think. AS needed more talent. |

In addition to needing more talent, he also needed 1) luck, our o line was a mess this year due to dock leaving & injuries on the right side, and 2) full confidence of the head coach; Gibbs & he didn't seem to gell their philosophies as much as JG had hoped. You have to think this O would be so much better next year if AS were to stay & JC matures. Overall, I will miss both GW & AS, hate to see them go. Both of them deserve better & it's a real shame they couldn't be here for another year. |

Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
I'm still throwing things about GW leaving. Al didn't really light a fire in me until Collins came in and showed what could be the future.
I still see no reason for GW to leave.

Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
I never warmed to AS and couldn't care less. I do think there is more talent here than there was in KC (Dante Hall?) but I think it would be great in St Louis. As for GW, I really like him and the way he publicly handled the criticism of himself as well as the way players almost uniformly sing his praises (AA doesn't like him but who cares). I'm not a "second favorite team" kind of guy but I hope he wins every game not against us and will cheer loudly for his D.

Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
I wish GW the best. I'll always keep an eye on his career. Hopefully he'll get another crack at being a HC, if not he's still a helluva DC. I wish things could have worked out here but it wasn't meant to be.

Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
Great thread. Knowing that those guys will probably never read forums, I wish there was some way to let them know the fans really appreciated their work and thought they got a raw deal (well, at least Double G, I think there's sufficient disagreement about Al).
I'll be a big fan of Double G from here on out. If he does end up a Jacksonville, I guess I've got an AFC team to root for.

Re: The Official Thank You G-Will and Al Saunders thread
I'll thank GW for his great job here, Al never really had a chance to shine and I even think it's a good thing to let him go while I think it's a mistake to release Williams after what he has accomplished this year with our D.
