It Takes Time.............

The Problem with the Redskins organization and some of its bandwangon fans is that we don't wont to rebuild. We just want to add pieces to a team every year believing that these few selected free agents will make us a playoff contender. We have been doing business like this for the last 10 years. Listen people we have to rebuild this team via the draft and stop pretending that we are 2 or 3 players away from going to the Super Bowl. Every good team has to rebuild its just the way it is. We think cause we hire new coaches every 3years it will make us a contender. This thinking needs to stop so stop saying fire Shanny and Hasslete it's not their fault this team is old and missing pieces. We have to purge this roster cause old and slow gets you to 4-12 or 7-9 records not playoff contenders. Lets stop looking for the quick fix BS and build a team through the College draft like other good teams do. We are what our record says we are. Wake the F up and stop dreaming of playoffs we need to be thinking about what players in the up coming draft can help us. We need to do better in projecting talent. No more wasted drafted picks, and bad free agent signings. Where is Larry Johnson and Willie Parker at now oh I know they in street clothes. No wonder the Chiefs and Steelers let them walk cause they are washed up. Hello we released Devin now it time for Galloway to be in street clothes. Lets see what Perry Riley has to offer this season since we are so terrible on defense and learning the 3-4 . Draft picks better start to be treated like Gold around here people cause if we keep drafting bad our team will stay bad.

Perspective from some of the Redskins D

"It's almost like you've been kind of doing everything with your right hand," veteran defensive lineman Vonnie Holliday said, "and all of a sudden you break your right hand and you got to start doing everything with your left hand."

The thread title is a blanket statement we've been preaching around here for as long as I can remember. We'll continue to make that statement as long as we keep changing coaches every three years. Sadly, today's NFL does not offer-up much time when you don't produce, production is where we've been lacking. Each year around this time, you're sitting on your hands wondering what changes are coming next. Stay tuned.

The problem with this franchise under Snyder is that we the fans are always told "it takes time". This has been especially true on offense. Fire Schottenheimer after one season, bring in Spurrier. That doesn't work out, so go with Gibbs, which I was sure would lead to deep playoff runs. Gibbs' offense not working, then bring in Al Saunders. Compounding all of this, the FO almost never has enough patience to accumulate draft selections to build toward the philosophy du jour, so ownership eventually does a 180 when we're getting close to making strides in the last system. Teams with stability build toward a philosophy through the draft (New England, Philly, New York, Pittsburgh, Indy, Green Bay, Baltimore to name a few) - any wonder why these are consistently winning teams?

Message to Snyder: Your way does not work, and our patience is running thin. If Shanny thinks the 3-4 on D, and Boy Wonder running the WCO are the way to go, then fine. BUT, your FO needs to demonstrate patience by building this thing the right way, instead of tossing away draft picks like confetti.

I think haslett will probably be around next season, for better or worse. I'm interested to see what this defense will look like next year after another offseason of "personnel modification."

It does take time. It also takes even more time when your head coach has his head up his ass on a consistent basis.
