I think an SB victory is a harsh metric to judge Gibbs 2.0 success. Heck, Parcells hasn't done it in a while either but is still regarded as a great coach. Reid hasn't done it.

An SB appearance would be cool, but I think for Gibbs 2.0 to be considered a success, the skins should make the playoffs atleast 3 of the 5 years of his tenure (even if we end up as a punching bag in the second round of the playoffs for a vastly superior team).

Remember, when Gibbs came back, he said he wanted to return the skins to respectability and their winning ways. I don't think he has done that as yet, as great as the playoff run last year was. We still lay way too many eggs against both good and bad teams.

Your metric for success of making the playoffs three out of five years makes sense to me.

This year's team is talent-laden, but I doubt we'll make the playoffs. And for Gibbs 2.0, it doesn't appear like he's having any fun at all. I wonder whether he stays if the Skins finish 6-10 or worse this year. Gibbs 2.0's overall record so far of 19-21 isn't worthy of many accolades.
