Should Joe Gibbs be let go or retire?

[Schneed10]

With coaching, the question for me always comes down to this: is there someone available who can do the job better?

I'm up in the air on that. In order to do better next season, I think a degree of continuity is required amongst the coaching staff. If GW takes over as head coach, and Saunders stays as OC, then I'd probably be alright with it. But if we're talking about bringing in a Bill Cowher, or someone else who will likely totally revamp the staff and the offensive and defensive systems, then that's foolish.

Gibbs definitely doesn't seem to have his act together. How good can the communication process between Gibbs and GW be if Gibbs doesn't even know about the 10-man tribute? How can an NFL coach not know the two timeout rule on icing kickers? How can somebody with such a killer instinct in his first stint play things so conservative now in the 2nd half of games?

That said, I think he's still probably one of the better coaches in the league, even though he's clearly not what he was. So getting rid of him is not the answer for me, unless the organization REALLY thinks GW could do a better job. Hiring someone else would be the worst case scenario for me.
