I don't think anyone is asserting that "all [the team] need[s] is to be left alone so it can win". Rather, we are asserting [hoping] that Gibbs fundamentally changed Snyder's fascination with aquiring bright, shiny new toys (re: players) and trying the quick fix, and, instead, taught Snyder that continuity, commitment and high quality team players are the ways to build a championship.

If Danny has truly learned that lesson, then a new guy is not going change it and Gibbs positive influence will be felt lonnnngggg after Gibbs' departure.
Nothing is impossible but I wouldnt bet my house on it.
