Overall I think Petitbon really got shafted.
I hate to look so far ahead, but if the scenario of Williams taking over for Gibbs plays out, I hope this time around we give him a honest shot, and not just one and done.

You know I always had this feeling that Petitbon really didn't want to be the head coach, that Gibbs had anointed him as successor. And out of respect he said sure, but I just got this feeling as the season was going on that it wasn't something he really wanted
