He shared a story about one time when he showed up late to a meeting: Gibbs said, "You're a man now. If you wanna remain on this team you'll start showing up."

I agree. I don't think Gibbs is holding these guys as accountable as he should be. He needs to start pulling guys or screaming at them when they mess up. I don't think this nice guy routine works when you have a whole bunch of guys who think they are stars. Stop coddling this team and start kicking some ass...oh yeah...and bench Mark Brunell!

He also said he thinks Gibbs has become Grandfather soft and not the taskmaster he used to be. I believe these guys view Gibbs as a players coach and they lack a sense of urgency because they know their coach is going to cover for them week in and week out when their performance leaves a lot to be desired. It may be time he took a different approach, providing it's not too late already.
