Re: Gibbs vs. Spurrier -- stats about even?

I think as fans we should look objectively at our coaches. While everyone was willing to give Spurrier another year, you sure as hell weren't spouting the "I trust the coach" type crap that every thread has twenty boring posts filled with.

This coaching staff isn't doing any better than Spurrier, and I must say. That's disappointing. Hopefully one more year will turn the tide.
Coach Gibbs has earned our trust with having prior experience and success in the NFL. Steve Spurrier had no prior experience or success in the NFL. It's not that hard to figure out why people trust Joe Gibbs over Steve Spurrier, regardless of the current accumlated win-loss stat.

Of course it's disappointing that we're slumping. It's disappointing to me that we don't win the Super Bowl every year. Luckily, we have a coaching staff who is willing to put for the work ethic that it takes to turn things around. Steve Spurrier wasn't winning to do that.
