GW to Baltimore is possible.
I hadn't heard anything about GW name come up for the coaching gig with the Ravens.

From what I had at least heard they where looking at bringing back the Defensive Coordinator they just fired Rex Ryan or Marty are possibly front runners.

He's pretty old, been on an incredibly stressful emotional rollercoaster ride and he's pretty old. Give the man some time to relax and see his family. Once he feels he's ready to make a decision, one I think will be to stay, he'll announce it in a proper and respectful manner as is Joe Gibbs' style.

Re: Who caught the Joe Gibbs presser today at 5pm?

Yea I also heard the 2 year extension talk on Riggo radio and fan nation had it rumored. Then soon after that I heard it was just that a rumor. But no tellin?

I would think Dan would love to sign Joe for a 2 year extension. But I would think at this point 3 more years might be more than Joe is willing to take on just my guess, but that would have Joe 70 years old.

I would be more than happy to take whatever time Joe is willing to give the team. But with the team pointing in the right direction I REALLY HOPE he will at least come back next season minimum.

Maybe he didn't want to commit to a starting QB, because it won't be his call next year....Just a thought.

Well I guess now that we know he's retireing this becomes the bigger issue of his press conference.

I was kinda upset because Gibbs really talked Collins up and wouldnt make a comment on if this is still Jason's team. At least make it sound like Jason will return to his role as starter but Todd will have a chance to challenge him in the preseason. Now I feel like we got to pay Todd big bucks to stay around.

One thing that pissed me off was the last question about if Gibbs was going to continue to let the players train and condition on their own, where they want. I thought the question was asked in a way that alluded to the problems with all the injuries this year. Gibbs kinda blew it off and said that he thinks he gonna do the same thing as last year, which is let them stay home to train individually.

Re: Who caught the Joe Gibbs presser today at 5pm?

I saw the press conference and came away thinking:

1) Gibbs will very likely be back

2) Todd Collins will get the benefit of the doubt in any quarterback competition next year. If TC was already under contract, then JG would be less worried about upsetting the apple cart and would have been more commital on giving TC the starting role.

As much as I like what TC has done and see the value of knowing the offense as he does, everytime he throws an out, it seems to float and take forever to reach the target. A savvy CB will jump the route and have an easy defensive TD.

Personally, I would stick with JC and try to keep TC as the backup. However, I really don't think that Gibbs feels the same way.

You guys are crazy, there's no way he's considering retiring.

Boswell makes a good point. If Gibbs wanted to leave, he'd just leave. If he was just staying another year he'd just say he's fulfilling his contract.

Well since Boswell is a Gibbsologist and all I guess that sums it up. All he needs to do is sign the contract extension Boswell thinks he will and we are off and running. lol

Hope it happens this week!

It seemed to at the time, I think this caught most of us off guard.
