Intelligence And Football?

I read an interview with Doc Walker and what he felt was a big problem with the Skins last season was that plain and simple they were too dumb.

I believe, or I am hoping the players that we had last season are smarter this year with a year to digest the playbook, and the new players we brought in are quick learners, [except Campbell of coarse ]I think Gibbs went out of his way to find players who are smart and all about focus and learning, who will be able to digest his playbook in a hurry, case and point this kid White, I just read an article about this kid's work ethic and desire to get better, now there's a Gibbs type player if I ever saw one.

The big question is, is Gibbs offense to complicated for today's NFL, When you consider free agency and all the flip flopping players do from team to team these day's? Will it take to long for players to pick up on the run so to say, or will the core player's who are familar with the system help speed up the maturation process for the new players coming in so that not everything is left to the coaches having to explain every last detail?
