Re: Do you trust Gibbs?

Simple question - not a simple answer.

I trust Gibbs to make the decisions that he feels are best to elevate this franchise to its former glory. Therefore, I vote yes.

However, my fear is that there is now an element of distrust on the team. Every member of that starting offense was told that the franchise had faith in Patrick Ramsey - and the history of faith in a starting quarterback lasts longer than 19 minutes (see Brunell, Mark - 2004). Those players who made a bond with Ramsey based on the stated faith in Ramsey have reason to question the things that come out of their coach's mouth now.

I'm going throw out this possibility, as far-fetched as some may believe it to be. What if the players really don't have that much faith in Ramsey? What if some of the veterans (let's say Springs and Patten for the sake of argument) went to Gibbs in recent weeks and said "Coach, I know you declared Ram the starter, but we're not so sure about that. We don't feel he's ready yet?"

What if they went to Gibbs and said we don't think your ready yet coach?

man, you have GOT to stop jrocx. Every post i've read you've been insulting people, telling them they're dumb, they're worth less than shit, they don't know football, they're fairweather fans, to go away, to follow blindly, to accept your view or to lock threads becaue people disagree with you.

STOP BEING A F**CKING TROLL.

either learn to support your views with logic or state them without being pointlessly offensive or just don't say anything at all, please.
