At what point would a skins fan be justified in calling for Gibbs' resignation?

other than that unlikely scenario, who the HELL could even hold Gibbs jock leading the Redskins? i mean he's human, he ISN'T God - contrary to half of Warpath's poster handles - he clearly has flaws, but even those are mostly of the good kind (loyalty etc.) but they are way overshadowed by his qualities.

Exactly, Ill. For the record, I love Joe Gibbs and what he's done for this town. He came in and restored respectability to this franchise and a sense of pride to the city about their team. But this notion that Gibbs is infallable, is beyond me.

I personally have not read any post suggesting Gibbs is infallible. I do however, seriously question your ability to accurately assess his accomplishments, lack thereof, or his ability to deliver them.

I have personally read some, in fact many, that certainly suggest he's beyond reproach, that's for damn sure.

I'm a fan who will be willing to let Joe Gibbs make that decision for himself. After all, that's what legends do.

I've been critical of some of Gibbs' calls as head coach, but I think it's far too soon to be calling for his resignation. He adopted a franchise that has been handled poorly, from the top down, for the previous decade. He should be given at least the length of his contract to try and right the ship.

But I also think there's only a 50/50 shot of him still being the head coach next season, and Campbell could be the determining factor. If Campbell shows potential, I could see Gibbs coming back and trying to build from the positives. If Campbell completely flops, Gibbs might just decide he's had enough, and hang it up.

I personally think Gibbs returns no matter what. And if he doesn't, it certainly won't have anything to do with Campbell succeeding or failing, after all we're only going to see him for seven games. That's hardly enough for Joe Gibbs to call it quits with 2 years remaining.

If Campbell completely flops, that will be Gibbs' mistake since it was he who was instrumental in bringing Campbell here and rolling the dice on him (gifting all those draft picks to Denver) in the first place.
