Re: All things off season 2015.

^ your always quite the know it all NC, you know Gibbs coached with his heart. Not only to lose a friend, someone you coached and mentored and then to lose in the fashion they did in Seattle in the playoffs? It probably exhausted the man. Don't insult Gibbs, nor the effect of losing what he treated his players like, FAMILY. Its insulting to insinuate that you know what happened, when chances are it DID play a huge roll in what happened. Please, show more respect dude

I didn't say it was a fact. It's my opinion on the matter. I know Gibbs was loved by his players and he had a big heart, while having a connection with them. I've never denied that. What I said wasn't an insult to Gibbs. He's one of the top coaches of all time (if not the best). I never said Gibbs was wrong for walking away either, just noted it wasn't some noble reasoning (like ST/family/etc). When I state something is fact, I'll note is as much. You guys get too butthurt over criticism of your favorite legends. Again, this is merely my opinion on the matter. Stop treating it as if I said this was the exact case.

I said Gibbs knew the team was old and had no depth. Guess what? That downfall after the 6-2 run was due to injuries. They had no depth, and the team was one of the oldest in the league. Gibbs had to know it would require a lot of luck to win with that team.

I didn't say it was noble or a higher calling, not even sure what that means. He simply was exhausted from the emotional toll of a football season, and ST's death was the tipping point. (all that is my humble opinion of course)
I know you didn't say it, I said it. I think people paint whatever picture they want instead of looking at the whole picture. I may be way off base. /shrug


edit:

I'M SORRY CR & MEKS.I WAS WRONG.
