This team went down to Minnesota, who was number one in the league against the run, and with back up lineman in there ran the ball effectively.

Amen to this whole post. I dont care about wins and losses as much as I do about having a hard nosed tough team that has earned respect. That is what Gibbs 2 did for me. He brought back respect to DC.
The worst day for me as a redskin fan was playing at Dallass our Qb got sacked and then dragged by his jersy as the DE strutted to the crowd - and the OL did NOTHING to stop it!!!!. I almost threw up. I was disgusted and pissed.... for years.
No way on earth that happens now. Gibbs for all his faults is one tough SOB who holds himself accountable - that reflected in his team and why I am so happy w/ the Skins again. If you worry about wins and losses then IMHO you are close to a fair weather fan (I am not calling anyone out - do not take offense). As a fan I am much more concerned about the personna of our team: Are we tough, do other teams loath to play us regardless of record? are we classy? Is our house a hard place to play? Answer yes to those 3 questions and I will be happy regardless of record.
That is was LaCalifornia just doesnt get. We arent NY fans or Philthadelphia fans - we are skins fans, stout in the foulest of weather, and populators of the loudest stadium in the NFC East.
