Whether it was the reckless, frantic race to Jacksonville so he could sign what many around the league saw as a washed-up, damaged goods quarterback in Mark Brunell, to the time clock management issues, to the ill-timed introduction of Patrick Ramsey into the toughest part of the schedule -- you can tell that this team is headed for what's going to be the disappointment that tops all other disappointments known to man.
Think the hype for the 2000 season was too much? Just wait for the nasty after-taste of 2004.

WOW! That is the most depressing thing I ever read. We all know now that it is about looking forward to next year. You learn in life by making mistakes. Gibbs is going to make them, but addressing the mistakes and learning from them is what seperates a smart person from an idiot. I don't think the game has past Gibbs by. But, it has changed. Gibbs is not disallusioned. We aren't making the playoffs folks. I don't care if we win another game, I just want to see some progress. We'll know through these crappy times, what players are for real, and who is there for the paycheck. Some people on this board knew we weren't doing much this season, and some were being unrealistic to think ANYONE can fix a mess that existed for 12 years, and be successful right off the bat. I think I was blinded as well by Gibbs coming back. Now, I have to face the reality, that yes, he is human. But he is also a winner, so I keep hope. Later.
