Al Saunders doing a brilliant job of hiding Commanders offensive plans...

[Gryphon]

...don't be fooled by all those zeros on the scoreboard. Saunders is a genius. He is hiding the design of all the Commander plays until it counts. The he will unleash the dogs of war on a unsuspecting NFL.

Yep, Al's secret plan is working to perfection! BBaaahhhaaahhaaahhhaa!

Gryph, I'm not sure if that's a quote or your own words, but here is my response:

I know it's just preseason, but seeing the Deadskins get clobbered is always a thrill.

Yep and apparently alot of that secret plan called for every OLineman on the Commander roster getting handed their lunch by any and every Patriot passrusher who cared to give getting to the QB a whirl.

There are alot of things you can overlook in the preseason. Protection of your QB, or in this case the lack thereof, is not one of them.

 

[LaTunaNostra]

yes, bravo, Al!

He's 'hidden' 98 percent of his playbook, and managed to mask the other 2% behind a facade of ineptitude and confusion.

I see a hc job for him by next season at the latest.

To give the skins an excuse...they are learning a new offensive scheme.

 

[The30YardSlant]

It's not whether or not they are hiding their playbook, that is irrelavent. They are screwing up fundamental stuff, like blocking and catchng and tackling, things playcalling wont fix

Not to hear them tell it. From some of the mouths of the Skins posters on here (noticably absent recently), there was going to be very little transition in this new offense.

And I guess they're right. They're transitioning nicely to where Gibbs was his first year back.

it's funny to hear the excuses from Commander fans, but from one of their own coaches? too funny

I remember that well...and Campbell>>>Romo

 

[Cbz40]

No problem!!! The skins will be ready on opening day.

It seems that Saunders used the Da Vinci Code when developing the playbook......it's taken longer than assumed for the O to decode it.

 

[ghst187]

Saunders is hiding it even from himself and players.....wow, he's good!

There is nothing to unleash. Brunell had his year last year. I do not believe in him. Portis is hurt. What you see is what you get. Too many chiefs there, not enough Indians

 

[Cowboys22]

So, I guess we are to believe that Saunders created an entirely new 700 page playbook full of plays never before seen in the NFL that once unleashed will result in his players magically completing all their assignments flawlessly. Something they seem to be unable to do at the moment even while running the very vanilla 2% of the playbook created soley to fool the entire league. So how did this big secret get out. Surely the mastermind of such an ingenious plan would understand the importance of keeping the plan a secret!

All this, or maybe we could watch game film of KC last year to get an idea of what a Saunders run offense might look like. I think I'd chose to watch the KC game film!

 

[ravidubey]

Washington is way behind schedule and it's Gibbs' fault for taking it easy on his players in TC. If anything, Washington needed tougher practice time and more of it. They'll play themselves into shape, but it will cost them time they no longer have.

The Skins have looked horrible in preseason, but thank god it's just preseason. I am worried about my team, and I really don't have a clue why even established, quality starters have looked like total crap.

No excuses from this Skins fan.

Now if he can just hide the fact Brunell is washed up, he may get 8 wins this year:laugh2:

 

[SkinsHokieFan]

Saunders is such a sage, he has other d-lines across the NFL figuring out exactly how to beat our o-line 1 on 1 just so he can cover that up in the regular season

He also is going to mask the fact that our WR's simply cannot get open

Oh and they can't catch when the ball hits them in the hands, thats ok though, its all a ploy to get DB's to back off a bit when the live bullets start firing

Damn, I thought preseason didn't mean anything. At least thats what I was told on Cowboy message boards in 2002

Sensible, gutsy and not afraid to post when things aren't all rosey with your team. That's what I like when someone from another fanbase posts on our board. Bravo.

WOW....I needed a good laugh.

 

[vicjagger]

I can just imagine all the Commander coaches laughing at the Cowboys & Giants for foolishly showing so much of the playbook in preseason.
