Re: Soooo, for each of us, what is the breaking point for Gibbs?

I'm sticking by Gibbs as long as he wants to stay because of a number of things.

1. He has assembled a great coaching staff and the players are responding better than I have seen them in years.

2. He is fixing every problem that we have had that has caused his "flawed offensive philosophy" not to work. (Turnovers, penalties).

3. I cant think of a guy with a better resume to take the job if he left.

4. A coach can't make adjustments in a game until he is familiar with his players and they understand the system.

Take for instance how New Engand switched from a 3-4 defense to a 4-3 so that they could pressure the QB in thier game. You have to know your guys and they have to know you to make that kind of switch in the middle of a game.

How about our running game against the Bears? You know we didn't just keep running the same plays until they got tired? Gibbs saw the Bears were crashing the line so he went with some longer pull out blocking schemes that opened the holes up.

Bottom line is that a coach like Gibbs needs the continuity just like the players to be successful. Gibbs will do fine once he gets everyone on the same page.
