That one sentence sums things up perfectly.

Unforunately in this win now or else society, many people have no idea what the big picture is.

Haven't we learned that quick fixes don't work? We've been trying that approach since 2000 and where has it gotten us? Absolutely nowhere. We've gone though coaches like Larry King goes through wives and our constant roster turnover rivals that of a college team.

I know things are rough right now, but if we can just weather this storm I guarantee you the Washington Redskins will be a better team and organization in the long run. Gibbs is trying to reverse the wrongs of 12 years of inconsistency and indecision and in the process restore an identity to a once proud franchise. He's trying to rebuild the team from the inside out, and that involves fighting through adversity and building trust from the top to the bottom of the franchise. Coming in Gibbs warned this wasn't going to be easy. What surprises me is how many people didn't listen and instead thought Gibbs arrival meant instant success.

Perhaps Bill Parcells first season in Dallas is what raised our expectations to unreasonable levels. On NFL Live last night Golic made a good point and said that last year the Cowboys really overachieved and played a soft schedule. This year we're seeing the real Cowboys.
