Gibbs NOT a good loser

but then, who would ever want him to be. certainly not me. Norv was a good loser.

did you guys notice Gibbs COMPLETELY brush Parcells off at the end of the game with the handshake?

Gibbs looked away and made for the lockerroom just before their hands even met. he was PISSED. we watched it on slow mo Tivo repeatedly. i think Parcells understood, cuz he handled it pretty decently, but it showed just how much Gibbs wanted this game.

Parcells was happy with himself for getting under Gibbs' skin and Gibbs couldnt even look at him. it was SO painful to watch. ugh, Parcells still have Gibbs' number?? :screama:

Parcells doesn't have anything that belongs to Gibbs. This man will work day and night to get this offense in the high powered scoring numbers it is capable of. Gibbs still has a Superbowl more than Parcells and is already in the Hall of Fame. I know he wanted the fans to have this game more than himself. He sees and reads the medias's biased view of the Redskins and feels our frustrations.

I think he was pissed at himself because this was such a winnable game and he kinda blew it with the clock management and the attempt at the no-huddle. He'll get it together, there were two drives when the offense started to click and you can see how the timing in the running game was starting to come together.

I think Parcells does have his number in that he does some things that frustrate Gibbs. Gibbs wanted to get a big play desparately, hence all the deep balls early, and not being able to hit on any of them really ate at him. But it's coming, the longer these guys work together the more you can see them starting to gel. It will take time, probably up until the bye week, but we'll come together this season (provided Brunell can stay healthy).

I definitely feel better about the direction of the offense at this point of the season even being 1-2 as opposed to last year when we started 2-1.

He shook his hand, who cares if he didn't look at him.

First LaVar is having too much fun in the box and now Gibbs wasn't a gracious enough loser.

Yawn

kinda opposite observations on them really. the point is NO ONE on our team should be taking losses well, its good to see that both LaVar and Gibbs don't.

I hear your point Ill, I guess I was just reacting to some things I've read on other boards where people were critical of Gibbs for not being a 'good loser'.

Sorry man, good point.

aw no sweat. why in the hell would you want a 'good loser'? that just means they're USED to it.

If there was a Cowboy fan watching the game with you last night, would you wanna go shake his hand and say good game. When the time expired, I threw my hat and banged on the wall. I think Gibbs handled it fine, EVERYONE really wanted this one.

He's frustrated with himself because he's a professional and that is why we brought him back. He's not going to blame his players by rotating QB's evry two plays a la Spurrier. He sticks with guys and lets them break out of funks. You think Spurrier would have left Brunell in after his 0-7 streak? Gibbs blames himself and you can bet he'll be sleeping in Redskin Park this week watching tape and preparing for the Browns.
Who wants a good loser anyway? We've dealt with that for the better part of a decade now.

jesus,mary, and joseph.what did you want him to do? give him a big fat wet one?they probably spoke before the game away from the cameras,and if they did'nt,i do'nt care.the only lesson you can learn from losing is the fact that you hate it like hell.can't say i'm much happier than gibbs now,especially after all those silly bullshit calls last night.but there are enough reasons the skins lost other than the zebras.poor clock management,and brain farts in play calling withstanding.the game is over,it's one of 16 time for the clevland browns.i can't wait till dec 26 in dallas.
