Why the media doesn't believe in Gibbs

...... it all balances itself out in the end.


Although that certainly WASN'T what we were saying last season.

Because of crucial calls going only for one team or another...

On a couple of occassions, even with crappy officating, I WAS like, "Wow, we really were just outplayed."

Because anybody can say, "Well, if our offense would have scored more points, those penalties wouldn't have mattered."

had he made that field goal, and we lost last week, it wouldnt hvae been because of penalties. We only had two. It would have been becuase we played conservtively and didnt score.

Even if you hate parcells, you have to admit that he is right. It doesn't matter how. The Skins are 3-0. Undefeated. Looking Good. Unbeaten. Case Closed.

There will always be some bounces and luck and missed field goals in any Football game, but they generally even out.

Great post 5RINGS (you don't know how hard it is for me to compliment a Cowboys fan ;) ).

I've always respected Parcells. He tells it like it is.

I loved the quote from Pacells last year about his QBs, something about how he knows he needs a qb but its not like he can just run out to the store and buy one.

Something of that context.

Many fans and media alike sometimes have difficulty adopting JG"s philosophy because they see how intrenched he is in the older style of winning. They have a hard time buying into the " Core Redskins " concept because in the age of free agency they know how difficult it is to keep a team together for extended periods of time the way it was before. NFL coaches now have to make their program come together much faster in order to offset the turnover on teams from one year to the next. There's just not as much time to mold teams into cohesion the way it was in JG first tenure.

However I do see signs of progress, and if we are fortunate enough to be able to keep a "Core Group" together, keep winning games, the perception will change.

I think winning right now, even though I don't feel confident with the wins we have (far too close) it's giving our squad some much needed confidence. When was the last time we won 3 games in a row?

I do think it's time to start opening up the offense a bit. We need to put more points up to be a real threat. I love our defense to death, but they can be a lot more effective if we're up by 10 or more.

He's right! By the way .................Bill, We, the loyal Warpath members would appreciate it if you would look elsewhere for inspiration. It truly is discomforting to see you surfing Joe's mail for that............elusive edge!
The only thing wrong with boards is all the Damn double agents

I have kind of seen things the opposite. I think with players changing over so fast it is now a coaches league - before you could stock pile players who were great. Now you have to coach w/ what you have- which is why I think Gibbs old school character, discipline and hard work will be hard to beat. But what I think makes him special is how he gets folks to believe.

i believe,wer'e gonna kick in some horse teeth.........what a upset...it's good to believe your gonna win against a team your not supposed to,i haven't felt like this in a long time....it's great except i cant fickin sleep.............
