Coach Gibbs might consider extending stay.

They are in the top 1/3 in most major categories. Sorry but that's really not fitting of the definition of mediocre.

Those numbers do look great but with the game on the line they have not been able to make a stands and keep the opponent from scoring. As I have said in the past, I really dont care about stats as I have noticed losing teams love to quote stats in an attempt to show that they really are better than their record while I rarely ever hear winners talk about stats. When the D was needed to win games they didnt come through. that why I believe they are mediocre.
