This is according Adam Shefter.

I think the last line was Schef's own opinion.

I saw the press conference and came away thinking:

1) Gibbs will very likely be back

2) Todd Collins will get the benefit of the doubt in any quarterback competition next year. If TC was already under contract, then JG would be less worried about upsetting the apple cart and would have been more commital on giving TC the starting role.

As much as I like what TC has done and see the value of knowing the offense as he does, everytime he throws an out, it seems to float and take forever to reach the target. A savvy CB will jump the route and have an easy defensive TD.

Personally, I would stick with JC and try to keep TC as the backup. However, I really don't think that Gibbs feels the same way.

All indications are Tony Sparano gets that job as soon as the Cowboys' season is over. Unless the Dolphins can pry Crennel away from Cleveland.

GW to Baltimore is possible.

Thanks SS. I swear whenever I see that guy's name, I read it Tony Soprano.

GW to Baltimore? Blech...

I hadn't heard anything about GW name come up for the coaching gig with the Ravens.

From what I had at least heard they where looking at bringing back the Defensive Coordinator they just fired Rex Ryan or Marty are possibly front runners.

Yeah Rex Ryan, Marty Schottenheimer, Brian Schottenheimer, Jim Schwartz are all strong possibilities.

You guys are crazy, there's no way he's considering retiring.

I think Jim Schwartz would be an excellent head coach.

Boswell makes a good point. If Gibbs wanted to leave, he'd just leave. If he was just staying another year he'd just say he's fulfilling his contract.

Well since Boswell is a Gibbsologist and all I guess that sums it up. All he needs to do is sign the contract extension Boswell thinks he will and we are off and running. lol

Hope it happens this week!

Well I guess now that we know he's retireing this becomes the bigger issue of his press conference.

I was kinda upset because Gibbs really talked Collins up and wouldnt make a comment on if this is still Jason's team. At least make it sound like Jason will return to his role as starter but Todd will have a chance to challenge him in the preseason. Now I feel like we got to pay Todd big bucks to stay around.

One thing that pissed me off was the last question about if Gibbs was going to continue to let the players train and condition on their own, where they want. I thought the question was asked in a way that alluded to the problems with all the injuries this year. Gibbs kinda blew it off and said that he thinks he gonna do the same thing as last year, which is let them stay home to train individually.

It seemed to at the time, I think this caught most of us off guard.
