"Coach Joe is on the Warpath!"

70Chip · 10-05-2007, 02:34 PM

Anyone who brings up that 0-20 stat is just begging to get the full treatment from Gibbs.

Awesome Coach Joe! Good to know there's still some fire in the belly and players 'fighting their guts out & being super smart' isn't enough to placate him. Hopefully this will stoke the flames to get the old school, aggressive want to kick your ass Joe back on the sidelines rather than grandpa!

FYI The interview is up on Washington Redskins
He's pretty fired up throughout, but you can tell he's REALLY fired up over that last "run the ball 70% of the time" question.

I'd love to see him have a chat on thewarpath and take questions from a few of our finest regarding what a horrible playcaller he is.

Tell em Joe. I hope we see some more of this firey Joe Gibbs. Lets see what our team can do Sunday.

HELL, that got me fired up!
JOE IS THE MAN.
I GOT TO GET ME a "Swingin' Soul" T!!!

warriorzpath · 10-05-2007, 04:16 PM

Yup, reading that fires me up and firing up the media and fans is fun -but hopefully this was just a peek of what is happening behind the scenes in the locker room.

SFREDSKIN · 10-05-2007, 04:41 PM

I say, coach suit up and kick ASS!! Who doesn't love Joe, the man is a WINNER in everything he gets involved, getting fired is a good sign of things to come. I want him fired up every week including Dallas week, then I want him frothing at the mouth like a rabid dog.

Stubborn? In what way? I think he's shown a willingness to change -- giving up playcalling to Al Saunders was a huge departure from the norm for Gibbs.

Yeah he gave up the playcalling but he is dictating to Sanders. This is not the way Sanders wants to run his offense.

Plus those two terrible play calls at the end of the Giants game were his.

But, he's the head coach. That is what head football coaches do, normally.

Sanders? Ricky Sanders?

Who says those last two play calls (I won't even get into a debate over the actual calls, again) were his?

That "swinging soul" quotation is priceless. I think all the 'ra-ra' yelling and stuff is way overrated in the NFL (not that I've ever been in an NFL locker room or anything). I kind of suspect all that stuff makes a lot more difference to the fans and the media than it does for the players. They just need to show up and play and execute the game plan. Hit Kitna, get some turnovers, don't give up big plays, stop the Lions on third-down, control the clock, and keep the defense off the field. That is the bottom line. These are adults, they are professionals, does a screaming boss get you guys going at work? You need control of the locker room and respect, but come on, this isn't high school.

Still love that "swinging soul" line, though. I'm gonna try to work that into a conversation, though I know I'd probably just get a really perplexed look.

MTK · 10-05-2007, 03:55 PM

Coach is fired up I just hope the team reflects that this weekend.

skinsfan69 · 10-05-2007, 05:25 PM

I'm not trying to sound like a sour grape but Gibbs lied. He told George that he wants to run 70% of the time and "take our shots." That is what he said. I heard it myself. So I'm not sure what Gibbs is talking about.

Bottom line is Det has a pretty good front 7 led by Shawn Rogers who is one of the best DT's in the NFL. But they are ranked 30th or 31st against the pass. So going in and trying to run 70% of the time against the lions is a stupid game plan. If the coaches watched the tape against Phi. then they should know Det. has serious problems in the secondary.
