I think the point of the article was to ignite as much reaction as possible...knowing that he has no true facts to back up his claim.

I don't even agree that Parcells should retire.

Any coach needs 2-3 seasons to get their players in place and establish their systems. 9 games and this guy has Gibbs figured out? Please.

Matty, thus far Gibbs has been PATHETIC. I know everyone's scared of him, but I follow the what have you done for me lately mentallity. If this were any other coach you'd be calling for his head.

After 9 games? Sorry no, I wouldn't be calling for his head.

I can't put 100% of the blame on Gibbs. The players haven't exactly been pulling their weight. The exeuction has been pretty poor all season. Drops, penalties, etc.

And yet you still preach on about how Spurrier should have been given another shot

If I were Gibbs I'd be tempted to say:

"Look, this franchise has been underachieving, dissapointing, pathetic, you name it for over a decade now. And time and time again the mantra has been 'if we only had consistency' or 'if only Gibbs were still coach'. Well you know what, I'm back and if you want to be the fans of a winning franchise again why are you so quick to turn your back on the man who made the Redskins one of the respected franchises in sports? I've earned the right to struggle early on, and be selfish, and do what I think is right to get this franchise righted again."

great post SS

for some reason 'what have you done for me lately' doesn't apply to a coach who won 12 games in 2 seasons, LOL

At least Spurrier put up some points on HIS side of the ball. Gibbs has one of the best defenses in the league at his back but can't get more than two field goals? It's not all on Gibbs, but I'd say 80% of it IS.

i agree man. like i hate to say it but i'm def not just gonna blindly follow someone just cos they won forever ago. this guy is just goin based on the facts. gibbs' o is doin NOTHING these days. sure he deserves some time and its a bit forward to be talking about retirement. but you cant deny the validity of doubt.

the only reason we're in any game is cos of D. penalties, stupid mistakes, thing gibbs was supposed to, at the very least, alleviate are now abound more than ever. this season is a disaster. sure it takes time and this is not fully JG's fault. it think now it goes to the owner. we just need to build up, which we'll be doing again soon.

i still hold with my original opinion. if i could have anything, i'd still wish for schotty to be here. that was our best chance to succeed and with such small windows of opportunity, you dont get many.

Denny Green has the ARIZONA CARDINALS, yes you heard me, in position to possibly win the NFC west. Doubt it will happen, but talk about impressive!

Arizona is one game better than the Skins right now and got smoked today by the Panthers, I'm impressed.

Exactly. Let's compare talent levels and it becomes impressive. They also have two decent teams in their division as opposed to our one.

Gibbs will get it and will take us back to the playoffs. BUT, I'm sick and tired of people giving him a free-pass. In my mind, he is as open to criticism as anyone. Our talent is fine. Our playcalling stinks. Gibbs will turn it around, I just want to know when. I haven't seen any improvements in our offense (which is supposed to be Gibbs' realm).
