Yep, believe it or not, I would love to be proven wrong here. Just because I am very critical of what Gibbs has done does not mean I want his decisions to fail. I want the Redskins to win - can't say it any plainer than that.

I just have a very hard time seeing how that will happen with what Gibbs did on Monday. And my concern goes well beyond whether Brunell or Ramsey should start. It gets to a real sense of "can we trust what Gibbs is saying anymore?" Can the players trust what he says? Never thought I would say that about Gibbs, but his latest move has made me doubt his sincerity.

Regardless of how this finally plays out, I think even the most loyal Gibbs fan would have to agree that he has really botched this QB issue. And the perception that he has made a mess of this can be very damaging to the team. Yes, I know what some of the players have all been saying publicly - the usual comments about how we'll continue to do our thing, blah, blah. But, you can't convince me that, privately, many of them aren't having some of the same doubts and concerns that we are.

Read Wilbon and Wise's columns in today's Post. They have expressed what I'm trying to say so much better than I can do.
