At what point would a skins fan be justified in calling for Gibbs' resignation?

That said, I'd like to keep Gibbs until he can't do the job anymore (probably when he's about 70). Gibbs doesn't have to prove ANYTHING. You don't give Gibbs a three year probation period, just to see what he's got. If you don't know what Gibbs can do, then you shouldn't be making the decision about when he should leave. And all that talk about the NFL passing Gibbs by is nonsense. Most people don't realize how difficult it is to win the NFL--even with all the right players and coaches.

We can slice this any way we want, but come training camp '07, the Redskins will be on a 2 year time table. You think the expectations and scrutiny is high now, just wait another 6 months.
