OK, I don't remember a lot from the first Gibbs era, you are correct. I remember watching a few super bowls and seeing that, but I was quite young. I was easily more excited to hear Steve Spurrier was the head coach of the Redskins. I've always been a big Florida fan since that's where my Dad went to college and I grew up watching the Gators. It's not as if I don't like Joe Gibbs, but Spurrier is the man.
SkinsNCanes, how many times did Mr. Edwards let us down when we had a lead? Quite a few. Our defense simply couldn't hold on long enough at the end of the game. Spurriers offense showed flashes of brilliance and it's complex. I still don't think the system was fully in place yet, and I think that his work ethic did hurt.
I don't think Spurrier could realisticly come back to Washington with any respect, HOWEVER I do believe that if he goes to another place (say Miami once Wandstat gets canned) and surrounds him with experienced NFL coaching staff, he'll do just fine. I don't feel that the skins had the right guys for Oline coach, D coordinator, and a variety of positions. And I hate to say it, but Ramsey is completely wrong for his offense. Steve Spurrier will be fine if he goes to a rebuilding team which will give him some room to work. Remember, he had a better first two years than Bellicheck and Jimmy Johnson. Not bad.
