Are people really that desperate for Gibbs 2.0 to have some kind of successful conclusion that they have to create an imaginary tie to any success Zorn might have?
Bottom line is Gibbs is gone. If this teams wins its on Zorn, if they lose its on Zorn. |
You said it right there, what's imaginary about that?
When Gruden won the SB with Tampa, the point is always brought up that he basically did it with Dungy's team. That's a valid point to me, nothing imaginary about it.
As for a successful conclusion to Gibbs 2.0, personally I think the way they rallied down the stretch and made the playoffs when they were seemingly left for dead at 5-7 was a successful ending. It might not have ended with a Super Bowl, but life isn't perfect.
