Re: Generational thing
I disagree. I'm from the Gibbs 1.0 era, and I don't give him a benefit of a doubt for what has been a mostly disappointing Gibbs 2.0 run. I give him credit for very solid personnel moves (Archuleta and Lloyd aside). When Gibbs returned, I figured that the D would be the issue and the O would be the least of our worries. It has been the other way around for the most part. Gibbs is in year 4 and still cannot field an offense that puts up 24+ points consistently. Hell, 20 points is something of a rarity during this second run. The NFL rule changes all but handcuff DBs today, yet Gibbs seems afraid to exploit that with any consistency. I predict that when Gibbs steps aside after next season, Jason Campbell will rapidly become the franchise QB that Gibbs was afraid to let him be as the head coach.
