AOL Sports: Gibbs Should Have Stuck with NASCAR

[Daseal]

For one Jimmy Johnson, JB, Sonny/Sam Huff show on Mondays, and I've heard numbers of countless forgettable guys say it.

Skinsguy: Ever since Gibbs was named coach I was reluctant to say that he's going to be the king of football in this down. When the media was parading that the Redskins were going to the super bowl and this board was so excited that we will finally eliminate mistakes, I stayed cautious like I always do. I hoped Joe Gibbs would take us to the playoffs, and I thought we'd do at least around 500 (hell, right now 500 would put us in the NFC picture.) I'm sure if you ask anyone who remembers my posts around there they also lacked enthusiasm.

The problem for me isn't our record. It's how we've lost the games. Playcalling, clock management, and silly mistakes. I'm not so sure this offense still works, ex-players would say that they would tell the other team where they're going. The defenses are more agile and faster than yester-year and I'm curious if it can win. We have enough players to have a middle of the pack offense.

Now, just because you want to blind yourself with optimism and fail to even see any wrong-doing at all on Gibbs' record then that's your perogative. A few games have been lost by WRs dropping balls, but most we haven't really been in a position to win due to screen passes on 4th and 8 plays. I watch what the media and normally take it for a grain of salt, unless someone who used to play a lot or someone I respect comes out and says something.

I'm not expecting anyone to believe what the media says. I have the ability to form my own opinions, and I hope you do to instead of following Gibbs like a sheep and refusing to look at him objectively.

I also am willing to give any coach 3 years to impliment their system and get it working at a decent rate. If Spurrier didn't get it that year I would have let him have another year. I still think Spurrier was forced out. That little Hey, I didn't quit meant a lot more than I think we realized. I think Joe Gibbs wanted to coach because Coy Gibbs said he wanted to learn the trade. Where else would he go besides here. Atlanta? He'd probably try to trade Vick so he could get someone who makes less mistakes.
