PFT Rumor - Joe Gibbs is Coming Back

I wouldn't want JG picking our draft picks either. What I think would be best for Joe would be for him to pick a good GM. It's obvious that Dan cannot.

That makes me wonder . . . .

Question: From what it sounds like in the article, Joe wouldn't be making the draft or coaching decisions. He'd get a GM and leave most of the big choices up to whoever that might be. Is that what y'all got out of it?

What Sayeth The Mob?

EXACTLY!!!!!! Joe Gibbs would be President of Football Operations, NOT the GM. The GM would be responsible for making the player personnel decisions.

I understand Gibbs wouldnt be picking players but I doubt he's plugged into who the new GM talent is and who are the hot young coaching prospects.

I tend to think this is Gibbs way of making ammends because he left DS in a lurch by leaving early. Had he fulfilled his contract Zorn wouldnt have been the coach.

I also think this is another PR stunt by DS. He know 90% of the Skins fanbase would like this move and it would be some positive news for the Skins.

I really wonder if there is anyone else besides Gibbs who would even take this job.

Why can't we see that around here?

Because they like the idea of getting the old band back together and re-creating the glory days. It didnt work last time and it aint gonna work this time.

No, I can speak for myself and say I'm not that narrow-minded. I, personally, am willing to accept anything that removes Vinny Cerrato from any kind of football decisions that directly affects this team. In now way, shape, or form should Vinny Cerrato have anything to do with football operations let alone being a GM for this team. He has already proven himself an epic fail. Quite frankly, I'm not willing to accept the same status quo and do nothing to fix our problems, which means keeping Vinny in his position of GM. Personally, I think the only way this team gets better is for Snyder to sell the team to someone else, but since I don't see this happening any time soon, then whatever gets Vinny out of the GM job I will back 100%.

That's a cynical point of view, and I'm no stranger to cynicism. He doesn't need to be plugged into the hot new GM prospects. He can hire Jimmie Johnson, he can put in Polian's Kid, or he could hire Deputy "mother effing" Dog. Anybody is better than the schmuck we have now! And, absolutely no one wants to come to work for Vinny or Danny, no one except me and skeletor.

If all he has to do is bring someone, anyone, in then is Gibbs really needed to do that?
