Gibbs can't retire just yet

He needs to come back next year to take us to the promised land. Give him one more year with a nice draft and FA pickups and he will take us to the promised land. Now that we have a QB and everything has changed, hopefully all the doubters will become believers.

He'll be back.

Gibbs is going to honor his contract regardless how this season turns out. No worries on that. I agree, I believe we need to keep everything intact.

Gibbs has said all along that he'll honor his contract. Imagine the team at full health going into next season with the threat that Campbell appears he'll be. Make a solid run to the wild card this year, and next year, we challenge for the division title.

We do have a QB. Kudos to Gibbs for going out of our way and giving up a future 1st round pick to select him.

That said, Gibbs' in-game ineptitude persists. I think Saunders being here next year is what's critical. Campbell grows increasingly comfortable in this offense.

This is an awesome topic for a thread IMO, I totally agree we have a lot of young talent, we are still gelling after 4 years which is a bit frustrating, but it looks like we could be very very good next year.

On the other hand, we have a lot of holes in this team to worry about, and it might take more then one more offseason to become elite. This is what we need:

Young Solid O-lineman including at least one good starter and a couple solid backups (Stephon Heyer may develop into one of them)

A young shutdown corner

A DE that can do it all, and especially get more pressure on opposing QB's (Andre Carter is good, but not great, I'd like a D end that both forces the opposition to run the other direction, and pressures, hits, and sacks qb's all game)

A tall, strong, athletic WR to compliment moss and randel el

That is a lot to ask for in an offseason, our biggest concern has to be to sure up our Oline, if we can at least accomplish that then we will be a very potent offense next year, and will have a shot to go deep in the playoffs, but I think it will take two more years for this team to be elite, but as long as JC is healthy this team is going on to bigger and better things!

In conclusion I say if we make a serious run for the NFC title next year but fall short Gibbs should even come back for a 6th season, I think we're FINALLY on the right track and it is Joe Gibbs' doing.

Amazing how when we play it out to the en, yet still lose to Dallas, we love Gibbs, yet when we dominated Philly for the majority of the game, we're bitchin about how Gibbs has gotta go. Personally, I think he should stay, at least 1 more year, keep our draft picks, and make some good selections in April. Maybe we could get Jansen a non-injury set of armor, and we're set.

A year under Campbell's belt should cut fumbling and interceptions and stop losing the close games

Defense held Dallas to good enough score according to their previous games
even losing secondary stars except TO scores
Daniels played a game and the fumble and interception by Campbell hurt
Dallas in December coming and Campbell should be better then

Not sure I would go as far as to say we love Gibbs. Many on here do, but a growing number feel his in-game decision-making ineptitude is rather troubling. Had we won last week, this game would not have been as relevant since the Cowboys were already running away with the division.

Al Saunders staying on next year is absolutely critical.

Al Saunders staying on next year is absolutely critical.For the sake of Campbell's continued development, I totally agree. Starting over with a new OC would delay Campbell IMO.
