Some other ways of looking at Gibbs' Second Stint

I read an article that Monday while visiting family in NC he made a surprise visit to his NASCAR HQ Office. He stopped by at 1 pm to hang out and basically let everyone know he's back to run the team.

I don't know man, just thought after everything they had been through together that there was no way he quits like that. Bet behind closed doors there are some hurt and angry players and coaches.

He owed us one more year. Just my view.

No I don't think he owed us anything. He drafted a very promising young QB, brought in countless quality assistant coaches capable of carrying the load now that he's gone, instilled patience (hopefully lasting patience) in our owner who was previously a maniac, and otherwise assembled a talented young core of players. Because of him, our future has possibilities. It's up to Dan Snyder and whoever he hires as coach to achieve the things Gibbs made possible.

The whole point of bringing Gibbs here was to make the team better. We hoped that would involve a SB. But there's no arguing that we're in better position today than we were at the end of the '03 season. So to Gibbs I say thank you, I'll never forget you, and enjoy your golden years because you deserve great ones.
