Ok, I'm not saying Gibbs is infallible, but people are always so quick to judge when they just need to have a little patience to see how things play out. Gibbs is changing the mentality and atmosphere of the team from the high-spending business to a real TEAM, where everyone is in it to win, not just to get paid. That takes time....and we've already seen some progress.
Yes, Beathard has won without Gibbs. But Gibbs was completely out of football before last year, so I'd say the jury is still out on if Gibbs can win without Beathard. Actually, he did win, in a completely different "sport" that he knew very little about when he first got started with it, so I'd put my money on Gibbs winning!

SR, high spending buisness? Gibbs is the one responsible for 92 mil tied up between 2 player, Brunell who should be a backup, and Portis who is a by product of the denver system. I understand the team part but how do you think that is going right now? And I will tell you this Gibbs better hope Brunell lights it up monday night, because if he looks anything like last year he will be answering an awful lot of questions. And if that happens I would be curious to see if he swallows his pride and go's back to Ramsey, or throws the rookie in?
