Now, it seems that Joe Gibbs is somber and just oversees everything, not really being as involved as he once was. Why do we need someone like Al Saunders to run our offense, when we have Joe Gibbs? He is a product and perfected the "Air Coryell" System, he was the best damn offensive guru in the NFL from 1979 to 1992. I just hope history repeats itself, and this is just the drought before they hire someone like Lombardi, Allen, or Gibbs.

I hate to say it, but Coach Gibbs probably needs to retire for his own sake. He's 66 years old and should be enjoying the golden years of his life. I just truly hate to see things happen like what went down yesterday, it just adds extra sadness to an already extremely sad week. Joe Gibbs is probably the most decent and down to earth sports figure I've ever seen, you just have to feel for the man right now.
