Just curious... It's the offseason and I need something to talk about:
few questions for the forum
1) What is he actually doing during the season? (anyone have any insight?)
2) How long is he going to stay? (does he even need to?)
3) Is Daniel Snyder a good owner? (we've heard it from the media "spends to much" blah blah... but has Dan snyder finally proven a himself)
4) Who's our competition in 07? (honestly who will beat us next year?... in my opinion no-one in the NFC east)

Good question I was wondering, bc I am assuming that Sanders will take a big role in the offensive this year. I do not know where it leaves Gibbs, beside a moral leader. I am not saying that having Gibbs is bad. Believe me I love having Gibbs, it brings life back to the team. But it is interesting trying to see how everything will fit.

Gibbs is just the head coach... Al Saunders runs the offense and Gregg Williams runs the defense.

he's the leader. the big guy. the head honcho. the big cheese.
Oversees everything and make sure everybody does their job... and helps keep the moral of the team positive.

1. calling all the shots, having final say on a major moves, and he is the reason Saunders came here, and G. Williams stayed here.
2. he stays at least 2 more years, if we win it all this year he is gone
3. Snyder is an improving, as of right now, no he is not a good owner, he is an okay owner. 2 playoff appearances in 6 years is not good.
4. OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD - the giants just signed 3 defensive backs, and I'm sure it is in retaliation for our WR signings, they will be tough. Eli is only going to get better. Seattle is a good team still. Arizona might be tough if there D can step up and if they get Vernon Davis. Tampa could be strong again, Simms is only going to get better, and I would watch out for the rams, the offense is still there and they got some good defensive players.

It's pretty old school to for a head coach not to call the offense nor defense... but of course back then, it wasn't a coordinator calling the plays either, it was the QB.

One example I did hear was in a particular situation (4th and 2 for example) he makes the call to punt or go for it... and al saunders will call the actual play.

Joe Gibbs essentially runs the team. More importantly, though, he makes the team run smoothly and efficiently. A case example, Randle-El is being courted by MANY different teams, but at 12:05 he gets a call from Joe Gibbs personally. Randle-El is impressed. BUT, what impresses Randle-El more?...Joe Gibbs asks to speak with Randle-El's wife. It is the little things that Joe Gibbs does, but essentially he makes the Redskins a team and instills that something extra that really makes a formidable team.
So, what exactly is Joe Gibbs' job? I cannot answer that...but, what does he do for our team? I would try to put a value on it, but like the Visa commercial goes...it's PRICELESS!
