skinnyles Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Who do you guys think will benefit the most with the Bye? I personally think Coach Gibbs really needs this time to re-energize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSkins Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 i think the bye would have been great a week ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Yea, the bye is about a week too late. Oh well, not much the Skins can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NattyLight Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Who do you guys think will benefit the most with the Bye? I personally think Coach Gibbs really needs this time to re-energize...his team I'm glad we're getting the time off. Let the guys blow off some steam have the Brain Trust come up with an infallable game plan and a way to get this team believing they can win (which I hope they can) and this weeks going to be huge. I'm having a really hard time believing that Gibbs can fire this team up (but what do I know) but he's going to have to reinstill some faith in order for us to make a run. Also, I think the defense is going to take huge strides because of the bye. Hoping Archuleta starts getting a little angry and we see McIntosh in for Holdman. I think Carlos and Springs will be 100% so Burnt and Toast should only get a couple reps/game for the rest of the season. There needs to be a serious offensive attitude adjustment...adjusted to what we did last year in 5-0 or we don't go. Clinton mother****in' Portis. He's the ingrediant. 26 touches in two games in unsat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grhqofb5 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Maybe Mark Brunell will have time to regrow that toenail that got ripped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProBowler Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Well I think most if not all extremskins members need a bye week even worse than the team. I mean we have covered every possible topic at least 3 times or more and now we are choosing sides and ganging up on one another. I'm getting a good idea how the Philly locker room was last year when TO would walk in. I say we :refill: :chug: :refill: :chug: :refill: :chug: :2drunks:till Dallas!:peaceout: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borninblood Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Who do you guys think will benefit the most with the Bye? I personally think Coach Gibbs really needs this time to re-energize. He is a super-smart thinker that really fights his guts out and works really hard. I'm sure he will dig down deep and find a way to explain the loss to the cowgirls that is really positve.

str8jacket Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hopefully it will give some guys time to get healthy if nothing else. Especially on the defensive side. Maybe Gibbs and the coaching staff can work out some of the kinks in the bye week and bust out with some new offensive plays down the field against the boys. Would love to see a replay of last years game with Brunell to Moss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see a replay of last years game with Brunell to Moss. That would be a good tape for him to show the players. Hey, Joe, if you need it, I have it on the DVR. Just let me know and Ill send down a copy. Yeah, we need this week off. D will be together for the first time this season. The O needs Gibbs to get more involved and tell Sanders what plays he needs to focus on. Personally, I want to see a statement. Something the team can get pumped about. Something different that makes a statement. Something like come out and run Sellers or TJ down their throats the first 2 series to tell them. Strap it up. Its smash mouth football. Then come back with Portis. Id rather see a power back in one first down and Portis in on later downs running sweeps, draws and zone. I would rather see a power back loosen things up then work Portis in to ran around everyone. But Ive been waiting 2 1/2 yrs to see that happen. That would give us more of an identity.

PCS Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Just in time for the whole organization. Top to bottom. And we'll see what it does for stress levels here as well, ( and if this cold gets much worse, I know I could use it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt'n Obvious Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 The whole team really needed this bye. Now lets regroup and destroy Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F Landry Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 We already had a BYE vs. the Titans... But we seemed to **** that one up pretty bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Nothing will change as long as Brunell starts. Oh we can probably win the game against the Brokebacks (they look just a crappy as we do) but no way we win with Brunell in Philly unless a total commitment happens to run the ball and a few things go our way. Lets face it I don't give a flack what Gibbs says. Brunell is a very limiting factor for our offense and our D is not the 04 D where it can keep opponents to under 14 points a game. Thus we are going to lose games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPortJGibbs89 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 The defense to heal up players, and hopefully portis's shoulder, but I read in the post he has an ankle sprain. It would help Campbell as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKINZ33 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 We already had a BYE vs. the Titans...But we seemed to **** that one up pretty bad... That mentality is the reason they lost. Can't take any team lightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borninblood Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I think if Gibbs would just lose it once on these guys they might get fired up enough to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean lets mix these plays up. At 2-5 there isn't a whole lot left to lose and the screen plays every other down isn't working so why not. Play old school Skins football--------run to open up the pass, then send the ball down the field. And we do need to make a statement against anybody and i would love to see that be made vs dallas.

roanoker Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 By their demeanor, it seems that the team can really use the bye week. Almost at half season, the bye comes at a good time. Hopefully, the second half will be better than the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
