You don't think Gibbs is getting grilled right now??
All I see are people saying what a mistake Brunell is and how stubborn he is by sticking by him. I've seen him ripped for poor clock and game management. On a weekly basis Wilbon goes into the other teams' locker room just to ask them how bad Brunell is. Anywhere you go now, sports radio, the papers, the internet, you'll hear people ripping on him.
Gibbs is feeling the heat. Maybe not as much as Spurrier, but Spurrier left himself open to more alot more criticism partly because of the cocky attitude he had coming into the job. Spurrier didn't seem to have a plan, talk about a flip-flopper.
One week he would say he needs to run more, the next week he would say he's got to play his style of ball more and pass, then he would go back to needing to run more, he regularly switched QB's, and on and on. His indecisiveness made him an easy target with the media. His awww shucks reponses also made him easier to attack.
