Taylor's death and the way it happen could have made any team tank and I think Gibbs was the glue, add in him knowing about his sick grandson and I say it had to be one of his best coaching years.......discuss.

This is really a two part discussion, in my opinion. I think this team will suffer from the loss of Joe Gibbs as the leader of the football team. I think he did a tremendous job of rallying the team prior too and after Sean's death, and I think he had a uncanty ability to be lead a group of pro atheletes in a way most coaches wish they could, I think thats something Zorn will have to pick up on.....

At the same time, I am excited to (hopefully) see a different approach to playcalling, with hopefully more of a killer instict than we saw at some points during the season last year. I really think our offense will be much better this year under Zorn...its the defense I worry the most about.

Long story short though, Gibbs defintley deserves some credit for assembling this team, should Zorn have a real successful first season as head coach.
