Re: Campbell takes losing hard

Gibbs has an unbelievable ability to judge QBs, even when most of the football population can not. He took a huge risk in sending Ramsey to the way side because he obviously thought he can do better. The early returns show that he was correct.

There are only a few things that seperate a historically great coach from a run-of-the-mill good guy, but Gibbs has that in spades.

I disagree. All the qb's Gibbs has every really had have been run of the mill servicable qb's. He has however been able to get all of them to play very well at times.

Even back in the day when coaches had a bigger role in player development than they do now, so QBs had to be evaluated differently, doesn't Gibbs get the credit for picking out the right guys for his system?

Nowadays, I don't believe system QB's exist, but back in the day I feel there were some pretty good examples, and Gibbs pushed all the right buttons and found guys cheap that could do the job for him (Schroeder, Williams, Rypien, etc.)
