I think the article was pure speculation. If, god forbid, we lose 5 of the next 6 games anything would be, and should be, possible at the coaching level.

But there's a bigger picture here too. Many have pointed to the team Parcell's built; however, there is a big difference in garnering talent and coaching it. Parcell's obviously has a good eye for talent, as does coach Gibbs, but in both their most recent tenure's the week to week coaching lacked something. Parcell's didn't inspire much in his guys, our guys haven't looked too inspired or disciplined either. Like somebody said, lousy execution goes beyond individual players when it becomes so habitual. Marty is probably an even better example of a great talentfinder who lacks something week to week. In SD he put together the most talented team in football last year IMO but they could not finish.

That said, I would be happy to see Gibbs continue as THE front office guy for us next year and beyond, but unless something special happens in the next 6 weeks I will have a hard time understanding how folks would want to see another year of current situation.
