[BrunellMVP?]

Ok, from my perspective I wanted Gibbs back. I think we were very close to being an elite team this year (how many games did we have the lead in the 4th quarter and lose?), next year i think could have been great. now, if we don't keep Williams, we will risk having to start all over. I'm sick of that. Lets see what Williams and Co can do...

In terms of Gibbs 2.0: from an objective perspective (for the most part i think), it wasn't that impressive...we had two "good" (playoff years) where it took miracle runs (5 wins and 4 wins in a row to close the season) to make the playoffs. Under Gibbs 2.0, we'll have a losing record, 1 playoff win, and are currently 20 mill over next year's salary cap. his 4 years were plagued with poor clock management, conservatism, and frustration.

From a personal point, I think he did some very good things in terms of building player and fan morale, team chemistry, and expectations of winning. Are we better off now than before? I'll leave that for the other thread.

Overall, I'm sad to see Gibbs go (however frustrating I found these past seasons)...I just hope the team he build, doesn't' disintegrate with his removal.
