Re: Joe2 Legacy2 will be?

As a coach he was relatively bad in his second stint. When we did well, it certainly wasn't his offense that did it. The defense completely run by G Will is what took us places. The defense kept the score low enough that we could win games even with our anemic offense. The clock management skills were just bad -- Christ, he didn't even know the rules of the game. Calling two time outs in his 4th year back? He also stuck with players that didn't give us the best chance to win. Brunell was more or less terrible while in Washington. However, he was a great leader. He's always been a good leader and that's something you don't lose. I couldn't think of a better figure to lead the skins through the Sean Taylor tragedy. I liked Joe Gibbs as a coach every day but Sunday. He was just too conservative for todays NFL.

Now, if we look at him in the team president role, he was very, very good. Spurriers teams were awful from a talent standpoint. Trung Candidate, Shane Matthews, etc. Gibbs came in and made some excellent draft picks and FA signings. I think Gibbs set this team up in a nice position via his player acquisitions, but we need a more adept coach to take us anywhere deep in the playoffs.

Was Gibbs involved in the Lloyd/Archuleta signings? If so I think that tarnishes his role as team president.

His legacy will be drafting Jason Campbell.
