I think Norv was an average coordinator who knew how to use the talent at hand BUT I am beginning to think he operates more on reputation than anything else.
To my knowledge, he has never got an offense to exceed the sum of its parts.

The Redksins generally had a top 10 offense when he was here but never had a decent defense. His main problem is that he has no instincts for managing a team. They call them head coach but really they are managing the team. That's what Gibbs does. He brings in the best help he can and gives the team direction and the coaches make sure it happens. Gibbs keeps the personnel in check and motivated and keeps morale high.
