And no, i'm not saying that the coaches should be fired or anything. GW is proven. Al S is proven. JG is proven, although in a different era. Players make coaches look smart. Picking players make coaches look smart. Our organization, need to rethink its philosophy and make better decisions.

You're onto something here. Gibbs 1.0 teams OWNED the third quarter after making excellent halftime adjustments. Gibbs 2.0 gets less out of more talent, especially on the offensive side of the ball, than any team in recent memory. This runs deeper than coaching though, it's a dysfunctional organization starting with the front office structure. If you're going to be making the final call on all player personnel decisions as Gibbs does, batting .500 on big money free agents just won't cut it. The FA misses KILL your cap situation. Archuleta, the highest paid safety in NFL HISTORY has been relegated to special teams duty. The structure of his deal may prohibit us cutting him this offseason, even if he never plays another down on defense.
