Re: Some other ways of looking at Gibbs' Second Stint

I don't know man, just thought after everything they had been through together that there was no way he quits like that. Bet behind closed doors there are some hurt and angry players and coaches.

He owed us one more year. Just my view.
I think that Gibbs has done enough for the franchise, the city, and the fans that he can do whatever the damn hell he wants.

He had always said that NASCAR is his life, and when he was ready to step down from the NFL (again) he was going back to NASCAR. Plus with a new driver (Kyle Busch) and JGR switching to Toyota this is going to be a very important year for his racing team. And he'll be based in North Carolina where he can be with his grandson constantly, which is great for both of them (not to mention his wife, and the rest of the family). Finally, it'll be a significantly lighter load on his day because he's not going to be up all night breaking down game film and trying to plan for the next opponent.

So, no I don't think he "quit" on the team at all.
