The building blocks are in place, but we need to get to a point where Jason Campbell has some more experience and we can get free of the injury bug.
Snyder changed coaches all the time and the people who want Coach Gibbs to be fired are just as faulty as Snyder was before he brought Joe back.
If Coach Gibbs is not here as the CEO/Coach, we are in trouble. I give Snyder credit for bringing Coach Gibbs back - Snyder knew that he would be run out of town before long if he didn't do something dramatic and let go of the reins.
I hope that Coach Gibbs will stay beyond his current contract, get the team into top shape, and then stay on as General Manager.
I think that as soon as next year we could contend for the Super Bowl title, if we have a reasonable injury picture, and Campbell continues to develop.
PATIENCE is what is needed. Any decisions based on short sighted impatience are only going to lead to misery for Redskins fans.

Lets bring you into todays NFL. Gibbs has been here 4 years. lets see 5-11, 10-6, 5-11 and now 5-4. same stupid stuff happens today, that happened 4 years ago. in 4 years there should be a change in terms of wins and losses, a gradual increase in production. With the payroll , the talent, the unlimited resourses of money this team should not be fighting year in and year out to finish .500. In todays NFL you have to win and win now. If you rebuild, then the 3rd year of that rebuilding you should be competing and going to the playoffs. We are stuck in neutral every damn year. Plus in todays NFL you have about a 4 year stretch with the current roster. This is why the draft and talent scouts are so important. so when you have to dump players (marcus washington, griffin, portis, moss) in the next year, we have talent that can step in and never miss a beat. we are far from that!!
lets go back a few years, Joe Gibbs did not build his teams in the 80's and 90's. He coached the talent drafted for him, and brought in by Casserly and Bethard. I do not want Joe to become the Talent evaluator for our organization.
Look, Joe has to go brother. we are in no better shape now than we were 4 years ago, hell 6 years ago for that fact. I dont want to hear about how we have this guy or that guy. fact is no matter who we have here right now, we are not winning. we didn't win with Norv, Marty (8-8), Spurrier and we aren't winning with Joe.
