unclejack8 Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 Okay, maybe elite was the wrong word and I should have wrote NFC contender, we are what we are and excuses don't cut it. What we really needed after getting punched in the mouth was to have players to get after one another on the side line and show some emotion during the game as if they wanted to fight back not lay down like ........hum:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylorcoreskin Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Why do we need a good oline to have a successful offense? Dallas had one of the worst in 06, yet the 5th ranked offense. excuses excuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleedburgundyandgold Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Change "elite" to "good" and I think you are right on. I think we are also a DE, WR, and two years of QB development away from being elite. I think this is right on. Skins have a chance to squeeze into the playoffs this year if the breaks go their way, randy comes back and either ladell or cp get into a groove. but even if they make it they are probably one and done, two and done at best. i think w/ a healthy o-line, a real big slot/possesion receiver, a top flight rush DE and a year or two more of seasoning for JC they could be a superbowl caliber team. i love how young the D is getting. but i dont think they get back to that level until there is one HC clearly in charge and a coherent offensive philosohpy. i love gibbs like no one else but i really dont think its going to happen for him this time as HC. and its hard for me to imagine any decent coach coming in to work under him if he goes to the front office. so i think he probably leaves after this year with a pretty decent young team in place and the next guy gets them to the next level. i dont know if thats grilliams or cowher or whoever. but you need ONE GUY running the show who is confident, fully in control and not afraid to lose. i cant say that about my beloved Joe Gibbs right now. can you?

SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I think the problems lie much deeper than that.They need depth all over this team. And that is going to a complete change in philosophy across the board. After that, it could take years... Not to mention we have an aging O-line. That's going to need addressed too.

SC3 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I agree. A good healthy O-line makes it a lot easier to pick apart a good defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrFan Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 We are not among elite right now, the Colts are, just because they keep on winning with key players injured at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttr77 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Not to mention we have an aging O-line. That's going to need addressed too. I think the only unit that is set on this team is at safety, and that's only if they resign Taylor. In my opinion almost every other unit could use either upgrades or some serious depth.

Taylor 36 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Without a doubt, the o-line is our biggest problem right now. The injury bug has really taken a toll on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
