Re: Do you trust Gibbs?

Do I trust Joe Gibbs to do what?

Do I trust him to try to win every game that he sends his players out on the field for? Yes I do. So do all the NFL coaches - past present and future.

Do I trust him to give the effort it takes to be a winning NFL coach? Yes I do.

Do I trust him to be bound by the parsing of each and every sentence he utters about the team and the players? Nope. And I wouldn't want him bound by that either.

Do I trust him to build a team that can win one year and then be solidly constructed for the future? Not really. Gibbs is a "win now" guy who probably figures that if the team has problems down the line he can figure out a way to fix them too.

Do I trust him to be sensitive to the feelings of his players? Not really - - unless they are bona fide STARS and have lots left in the tank so they can continue to be STARS. Know what? That's the way I'd handle the personalities and egos on an NFL team too.

Do I trust him?

Depends on what you mean...
