I don't think it broke him. I don't think he let all the pressure break his confidence, and thats a tribute to his toughness.
I think what it hurt most was his learning curve. It was hard for him to make a week to week improvement back in 2003 because Spurrier was more worried about making his system work than he was about protecting his QB. I think Spurrier ruined his season, and retarded his growth...but I don't think he broke him as a player.
He didn't improve statistically much under Gibbs in 2004, even when I expected him to. I think he was just an average player with above average toughness.
