I truly believe that the benefits we reap from Gibbs will probably become known after Gibbs steps aside. Not that Gibbs can't make those players win, but that it may take a year or two past Gibbs' contract in order to finish the development.
Again, I think we're just in the age of instant gradification. If it doesn't work right away, we need to trash it all and start all over again. For some who say we need to get a new coach, and I realize it's not many saying that, keep in mind that getting a new head coach means getting a whole new coaching staff (more than likely) and getting rid of players who don't fit the system, etc.....this is something I want this franchise to finally avoid.

Instant gratification? At the beginning of the '07 campaign Gibbs will have two more years left on his contract. So you have to figure, things will have to start cooking real soon for the Redskins.
