I think he's quite aware of the fact that Campbell is going to face some struggles. With the team basically out of the playoff race it would make no sense at all to have a short leash with him. I think the coaches are going to want to get a good look at him over these next 7 games to determine what direction the team will take in the offseason.

I personally wouldn't be worried about Campbell having a short leash this season. But I'd be worried about what Gibbs will do going into next season. Will he trust Campbell and let him go with it, or will he bring in another vet?

Only time will tell. One would think Gibbs will give Campbell a good chance given that Gibbs hand-picked him; then again Gibbs loves the cagey old vets.
