Seriously, as had been said throughout this thread, was Gibbs stellar in this last term? No. Was he "average"? No.
No other coach could have come into the 2003/2004 Skins and so fundamentally changed the team's (the entire team - FO, coaches & players) attitude from self-serving chaos to a true "team" concept.
IF we are lucky, Snyder did learn something from Gibbs about managing a team and, if he did so, then with a little luck we can be a constant winner again. The foundation for that is set thanks to Gibbs and THAT is no minor feat given where we were as a team.

You make a great point in your last sentence. I believe Snyder will think he learned a lot from Gibbs and because of that, and Gibbs being gone, will assume a bigger role in player evaluation and free agent signings. He defered a lot to Gibbs while Gibbs was here but now that Gibbs is gone and Danny has studied at the feet of his hero he will assume the involved role he had in the past. It could get real interesting.
