The "blind loyalty" that you have displayed is a bigger problem than some ribbing of our coach. If fans don't voice their concerns vocally and with their wallet then the Redskins will continue to be number one in market cap and near the bottom in wins.

All true, excellent points there. Like I've said recently though, I would be right there with you in criticizing Gibbs, and saying the game has passed him by if it wasn't for that 2005 playoff season. Now if he doesn't get it turned around next season, then I think he may need to seriously consider stepping down, not only for the good of the team but for his own good as well.
I'll be the first to admit that trading a 3rd round pick for TJ Duckett, among other moves, was nothing short of idiocy, his GM skills are not on par with his coaching skills right now. If you say I have "blind loyalty" you're dead on, when a guy has helped to bring 3 super bowl titles to your favorite team then that kind of thing tends to happen! He's also an incredibly decent human being to boot. Also tell me what you mean by, "Also, from many of the stories that came out it is obvious that he isn't the same guy that won 3 Super Bowls." What, has a mellowed too much, or something?
