But Gibbs also coached three teams to SB wins, with 3 different QBs, and two different GMs. So they were both good. Who the f*** cares? What matters is how to fix our present problems. Should we fire Gibbs? My feeling is he's a good coach, even now (last years team went to the playoffs, no?) and that he has a talented staff. The team has played poorly, so perhaps the thing to do is get good coaches to fix it. Or we can start from scratch with someone else. I'm not convinved that's the solution, not yet. Let's see how Campbell looks and let's see what they can do in the remaining games to right the ship. Think back on the second Dallas game last year before we right off Gibbs and WIlliams, and think about the Jax game this year (with MB, no less) before we right off Saunders. Sometimes it is the correct move to fire the staff, even if it's the sainted JG. BUt it's not time for that yet. If Gibbs wants to play out his five year deal, I'm in favor of it. Maybe some are not. But it's not time yet.
Nice take.

I'd prefer to talk about the present rather than rehashing the past, some of which people have very skewed memories of.

no what would help would be shutting down the LOSSES.

come on being a Redskin fan is a unique and unfortunate position in the NFL. you have to admit, no team makes more money off their fans, riles them up to a more fever pitch, and sets us up higher for a fall. year after year.

the season is basically a set up for the OFFseason. we have a right to be angry. more than most.

Re: Dazed And Confused!

Gibbs deserves some criticism for personnel mistakes. However, he has made some good moves. To wit:

1. Drafting Taylor instead of Winslow 2.
2. Drafting Cooley.
3. Marcus Washington.
4. Cornelius Griffin.
5. Santana Moss.

All solid moves. You win some you lose some. They are 3 - 6 so the critics can say that the above points are neither "hear" nor "their". Ultimately how good a GM you are is based on how many games you win.

Also, those who worship at the altar of Beathard should take some time and find out who the following people are:

1. Bob Slater
2. Tory Nixon
3. Walter Murray

When I first came to the US I would watch the game at a bar (DB Coopers) in Palms, CA. Nice mixture of Gang Bangers and a various fans.

Later I discovered the joys of DirecTV, then HD TV! Woohoo! Now I suffer the ineptitude of the team I love projected on a 7 foot wide screen in 1080 in the privacy of my own home.

So the short answer is 'Sunday Ticket'.

What a fucking depressing day.
