Re: Hey Dan Snyder.. Go get Floyd Reese!!!

While I was watching the replay of the Skins Broncos SB tonight I found it interesting that in the second half when the game was over the commentators were giving so many accalades to Bobby Beathard and making him the chief reason behind the succees we had had up until that point, I guess Gibbs thought it was his coaching that made those players, while it becomes more and more evident that it was BB's ability to continualy stock pile talent that made Gibbs.

I think Gibbs is smart enough to realize that w/out players you have no team. Plus he had nothing to do w/ the defense. That was all Ritchie.

Beathard kissed media ass, that was why he was so popular and given so much credit.

I think Jerry Jones had a similar vision of the Boys when JJ left

Let's not be so quick to dismiss Gibbs' impact on that team. For starters, he's the one who lured Doug Williams to the Redskins. But more importantly, it was Joe Gibbs that coached a bunch of no-name guys like QB Ed Rubbert, RB Lionel Vital, and DE Steve Martin (not that one) to a 3-0 record during the "replacement weeks" of that season. While other teams had inner turmoil with players crossing the picket line, Gibbs kept that unit of "scab" players together for three pivotal weeks.

Don't forget it was also Gibbs who personally convinced John Riggins to come out of retirement and come back to the Redskins.
