I was originally ok with the extension offer but then I started thinking about it and I have changed my mind. Why offer it now? What good comes out of it. Its very clear that Snyder supports Gibbs, he doesnt need to offer the extension hours before the most important game of the season. Its a distraction, especially for Gregg Williams. There is no doubt in my mind he has to be thinking somewhat about leaving now. Even if it is a small thought in his mind that means hes not 100% dedicated to the game.

I think Parcells and the Dolphins are on to something. There will be a trend of "VP" type guys, with the experience of a Parcells or Gibbs, hired in the NFL. This position should be responsible for setting the vision, evaluation of personal, both on and off the field, and a final voice to settle internal disputes. There is simply too much responsibility for one person to do all this and coach the team. I feel Gibbs would be perfect in this role. In my humble opinion he should "move upstairs" and fill this role as Greg Williams becomes head coach in 2009
