Gibbs' 3 rings were achieved many, many years ago. The game is very different now and so is this Redskins team. The glory years are but a distant memory, unfortunately.
I was hoping that Gibbs could lead us back to future days of glory, but he took a giant step backwards yesterday, in my opinion.
Will I always love and root for the Skins? Absolutely.
Does that mean that I can't question those decisions that are made by the staff? Of course not.
Gibbs is not infallible, but I guess the proof will be in the pudding. If Brunell suddenly takes us on a winning streak, I will be very happy. But, something tells me that this is not going to happen.

Sweetheart, no one is saying Gibbs is infallible and certainly to a man or woman, we have all disagreed with some decision Joe Gibbs has made. Just refer to the thread of the most recent roster cuts. Everyone's opinion varied somewhere.
But the thing we all have to see here is though we say that the Super Bowls were many, many years ago and the glory days are something of the past - it's that same powerful past and those same glory days that has endeared us all to this franchise. Yes, the glory days are in the past and yes the Super Bowls were many, many years ago, but please don't minimize or diminish in any way those huge accomplishments and great tradition of winning because they are most definitely in one way or another connected to the very reason we are talking about the Redskins on this thread in the first place.
