So would it still be Joe Gibbs' team in this case?

I may have had a typo in my rant on typos.

Joe Gibbs's team won the game. Isn't this correct.

Joe Gibbs' teams won the game. That looks wrong to me. But I am not an english major. The main think that irkes me is when the do the Gibb's. His name is not Gibb, it is Gibbs. So all punctuation should come after his name.
