Something I never want to hear again:

If Gibbs had never went back to coaching, would we have even talked about making the playoffs last season and having such high expectations now? I still say for a man to have been away from coaching the NFL for what...11 years...to come back and coach a team to the playoffs his second year back is a great accomplishment. Let's face it...we all want this franchise to be winning now, but winning as much as the Patriots are doing. That type of expectation does not happen overnight. I guess we have to look at it this way......if it takes Gibbs 4 or 5 seasons to turn this team into a consistent winner, year after year...isn't that more valuable than to have one great year and another 15+ losing seasons?
