The Most Beloved Coach in History?

[Daseal]

I'm sure other fans would disagree with us. Steelers fans would go Noll, 49ers fans would say Walsh, etc. Every city loves their great coaches. Gibbs is a great guy and commands a lot of respect but let's not get ahead of ourselves. He came back because Coy wanted to coach. Though he missed it (like every coach) it is also a huge burden and I bet it took come convincing to get the wife to let him come back! Not that any of these are bad things, but I'm pretty sure the reason he came back didn't completely stem from wanting to turn Washington into a winner again (though that was a part of the thought process I'm sure.)

Belichick is a great strategic coach, but a loaf of white bread is more exciting.

True enough, if he gets into Canton they're just going to toss a ratty Pats sweatshirt onto his bust!

Gibbs is probably the best leader of that elite group. It's rare to find someone who can have players play hard for them day in and day out no matter the standings, record, or consequences.
