Moss and Gibbs Modify Play

This is a good article about how Moss went to Gibbs at some point in the game and said that Williams and Glen had bitten real hard on his cut. So they just added a deep dash to the play. Thats sounds like the Gibbs of old coming up with a play to win a game.

nice to see Gibbs coming out of his shell and remembering to make adjustments.

I think under the first Gibbs era the thing he was known around the league for was his 1/2 time adjustments.

I always thought it ironic the guy would stay up all week devising the game plan for essentially the first 1/2, then in 12 minutes redo every thing for the 2nd half and more often than not (ohh, about 70% of the time), kick their butts.

Not only did he figure it out, but he also managed to teach it to the team in those 12 minutes.

Joe Gibbs, master of the halftime adjustments.

This article just shows the strides that Coach Gibbs himself has made just in the past year. I distinctly remember that one of Coles' beefs was that the coaches didn't listen to his suggestions on the sidelines. Well it sounds like Gibbs is listening to his wideouts these days, and while I don't want the inmates running the asylum I do think the players should be able to say what they think might work especially considering how awful our offense was up to that point.

whoa. couldn't find the thread this belongs on:

"Linebacker LaVar Arrington raced to midfield at Texas Stadium, where Washington hadn’t won in 10 years, and repeatedly banged his helmet against the big, blue star that had come to symbolize much of the Redskins’ recent frustrations."

I was just about to post that... I wonder if anyone has pictures or film of that.

Has anyone heard anything on him and is he just not up to game speed yet.

two tackles isnt bad considering he only plays like 3 plays a game. He probably is up to game speed they are just claiming that they are working him slow so he doesnt get reinjured. Which is bs. the defense is working without him, but ya gotta put him in more often.

Great sandlot story.

It is really good to hear that Gibbs is coming along in his 21st century NFL schooling. Most of the people on this site had few doubts that he would. :) Go Gibbs!!!!!
