JOE GIBBS football will work consistently if we hire a GM that picks the personnel to support joe gibbs football.

That includes a big HB, and small fast HB

A big possession third down receiver, and a solid offensive line

Otherwise, "JOE GIBBS" football will struggle

I agree on that...unfortunately I don't think that's going to happen...even if Gibbs stayed on for 3 more years.

One problem no one is accounting for is that the game today is vastly different, and not just for reasons I have already mentioned, but for the fact we are in the salary cap era. The line that Gibbs had stayed relatively in tact for over a decade, while already in part 2 he's been through a bunch of O linemen. You just can't keep people like you could have in years past. I think this is a factor in a Joe Gibbs type system.
